Here's Thea, our superstar moving expert in Reading! Here’s what people ask her the most:
Whatever you need to move, we've got a van for that! Our Reading man and van service can handle house moves, office relocations, furniture deliveries, large parcels – you name it, we can move it.
No need to rent a van or break your back hauling things on your own. Our service includes loading and unloading, so we can share the load with you. Easy, right?
Tell us what you’re moving and we’ll match you with a local expert.
Easy! It takes less than 2 minutes to get a quote for a local man and van in Reading. All you need to hand is three pieces of info:
You can then choose the time slot that works best for you and any extras, like a spare pair of hands. You’re on your way!
Booking your man and van service in advance means you’re more likely to get a better price, as well as choice of dates and time slots.
But we know plans change so, at AnyVan we’re available seven days a week. This even includes same-day and same-week services if that’s what you need.
64% of customers in Reading book their move less than seven days in advance. Remember, you can change your booking at any point up to 48 hours before the move and there’s nothing to pay until 72 hours before you move.
Our helpful mover will take care of unloading and loading your items as part of our man and van service. But, they won’t pack your items.
If you’re moving a large number of items you may need our removals service, which can include packing – at an extra cost.
What’s the difference between a man with a van and a removals company? The biggest difference is the size and cost of the move. Both options will sort you with a vehicle, plus the loading and unloading, but removals services go the extra mile with things like packing, furniture dismantling, and reassembly.
If you’re moving a house full of furniture, you’ll probably want a removals team to handle the heavy lifting (literally). But if it’s just a few pieces of furniture that you’re shifting, a man with a van is your budget-friendly, no-fuss solution!
Sadly, for safety and legal reasons, you can’t hitch a ride with our Reading man and van service (sorry!).
If you want to be there for the pick-up and drop-off, you’ll need to sort your own travel.
No. The price you pay for a man and a van in Reading already includes petrol and VAT.
Just make sure your inventory is up-to-date, everything’s packed and ready to go when we show up, and let us know if there are any stairs or lifts – so we can bring our A-game!
