Man and van jobs, without the bidding
URemovals connects van drivers with customers who need a removal or a delivery. You set your prices and your availability, customers book you directly, and the job lands in your dashboard already confirmed.
No bidding for work. No paying for leads that go nowhere. No job board to refresh every morning.
Free to join. We take 15% commission, and only on a booking you actually get.
What we can and cannot promise
We aren't here to promise miracles or guarantee hundreds of jobs every month. What we can promise is that we work hard so that everyone who joins us receives more and more man and van bookings across the UK, all at fair pricing. We also promise to keep our commission as low as possible.
Unlike many other companies, we recognise that the customer is yours, not ours. They belong to your business and are your responsibility.
How you actually get the work
This is the part that differs most from the sites you have probably already tried. Nothing here involves buying a lead or undercutting someone in an auction.
-
Set your rates and your area
Your hourly rates, mileage rate, stairs charge, minimum hire time and how far you will travel. Weekday and weekend rates can differ. Every quote you appear in is calculated from your own numbers.
-
Block out the days you cannot work
You are available by default, so there is nothing to switch on to start getting jobs. Add your unavailability when you need a day off, set which weekdays you normally work, or upload an .ics file straight from Apple, Android or Outlook and let your own calendar do it.
-
Customers compare and pick you
Someone searching in your area sees your quote next to other local providers, with your price, insurance badge, reviews, trust score and completed jobs. No bidding war, no race to the bottom.
-
The booking arrives confirmed
The customer has already paid a deposit, so the job is real before it reaches you. Accept it in your dashboard, then deal with the customer directly from there.
This is how a customer sees you
Your listing carries the things that actually win jobs, and all of them are earned rather than bought:
- Your price for that specific job, worked out from your own rates.
- Your insurance badge. Silver shows you hold Goods in Transit cover, Gold adds Public Liability.
- Your star rating and reviews from customers who completed a move with you.
- Your trust score out of 10, plus jobs completed and miles driven on the platform.
- Your own business name and your van photo, not a URemovals badge.
You also get a public profile page for collecting reviews, which is yours to share anywhere you like.
What it costs, in plain numbers
We would rather put this on the page than make you email and ask.
Free to join
No signup fee and no monthly subscription. Set up your profile, add your documents and your rates, and start appearing in quotes.
15% commission
Taken from the quoted price, and only on a booking that is confirmed. No confirmed work means nothing to pay.
Nothing for leads
We do not sell leads and there is nothing to bid on, so you never pay for a job that someone else wins.

How the money reaches you
The customer pays a deposit online when they book, which is what makes the job real before you have driven anywhere.
The balance is paid directly to you by the customer, in cash or by card, at the end of the job. It does not sit with us and you are not waiting on a payout run.
Anything extra gets settled on the day. If a job runs over the booked time, you agree the additional half hourly charge with the customer and collect it before you leave. The same goes for extra trips or stops.
Costs you do not absorb
Congestion charges, ferry costs and parking fees are collected from the customer on the job. They are not yours to swallow.
Quotes are calculated for one trip and the time the customer asked for, so a job that grows is a job that pays more, not one that eats your afternoon for free.
What you need before you start
Four things are required. Two more are optional, but they change how you look to customers.
A van
Small van through to Luton. You choose which sizes you offer and price each one yourself.
Driving licence
A valid licence for the vehicle you intend to drive.
Hire and reward insurance
This is the cover legally required for man and van work in the UK. Social, domestic and pleasure cover is not enough.
Right to work
Proof that you can legally work in the UK.
Goods in Transit Optional
Unlocks the Silver badge on your quotes. Customers moving a full home tend to filter for it, so it usually pays for itself.
Public Liability Optional
Unlocks the Gold badge. Needed in practice for managed buildings and office moves, where the building manager asks for proof of cover.
You run your business, we bring the customers
You are self-employed here, not staff. That means your own tax and National Insurance are yours to handle, and it also means nobody tells you what to charge or when to work.
- Set your own rates. Complete control over what you charge, based on your costs and what your area will bear.
- Work on your own terms. Block out the days you are not working and you simply stop appearing to customers on those dates.
- Trade under your own name. Your business, your branding, your reputation.
- Keep your customers. They belong to your business, not to ours.
What we ask in return
Block out the days you cannot work, turn up for the jobs you accept, and tell the team straight away if something goes wrong so a customer is never left stranded.
Dropping confirmed bookings without a good reason lowers your trust score, and that score sits on every quote you appear in.

Questions drivers ask us
No. There is no bidding and no job board to check every morning. You set your prices and your availability, and customers searching in your area see your quote alongside other providers. If they pick you, the booking is confirmed and lands in your dashboard. You are never competing to buy a lead.
Joining is free. No signup fee, no monthly subscription, no charge for leads. We take 15% commission of the quoted price, and only on a booking that is actually confirmed. If you get no work, you pay nothing.
The customer pays a deposit online when they book, which secures the job. The balance is paid directly to you by the customer, in cash or by card, at the end of the job. Extras such as additional time, stairs or extra trips are agreed with the customer and collected before you leave the property.
A van, a valid driving licence, hire and reward insurance, and the right to work in the UK. Standard social, domestic and pleasure cover is not enough for this work. Goods in Transit and Public Liability are optional and unlock the Silver and Gold badges on your quotes.
No. You are self-employed and responsible for your own tax and National Insurance. You operate under your own business or trade name, set your own rates and choose your own working days. The customer belongs to your business, not to ours.
Yes. You control your hourly rates, mileage rate, stairs charge and minimum hire time, and you can price weekdays and weekends differently. Your quote is built from your own numbers, so you decide how competitive to be.
The customer does. Congestion charges, ferry costs and parking fees are collected from the customer on the job. They are not absorbed by you and not paid by URemovals.
Contact the team immediately with your reason and any evidence so a replacement can be arranged for the customer. Rejecting or dropping confirmed bookings without a valid reason can lower your trust score, which customers see on your quote.
