Driver Help
£70 an hour
One mover with a van. The mover loads and carries; you can lend a hand if you wish, but you are never required to.
CREW AND TIME OPTIONS · SOUTH LONDON
Man and van in Mitcham suits single items and smaller loads: a sofa collected from a terrace near Fair Green, a bed delivered to a maisonette by Mitcham Eastfields, a fridge picked up along Morden Road, or a few rooms moved up towards Pollards Hill. The booking is a crew and their time, so the item list and the access at each end decide the quote, the same wardrobe is a different job from a driveway than from an upper maisonette reached by stairs. List every item with sizes, and say whether you need carrying help at both addresses.
A Mitcham move might mean a Victorian terrace near Fair Green, a 1930s semi towards Pollards Hill, or a maisonette or flat near Mitcham Eastfields or Mitcham Junction stations. Tell us both postcodes, your floor and stair or lift route, and where the van can wait at each address. A Merton suspension costs £36.75 admin plus £36.75 per bay on the first day and £40 per bay on later days, so a two-bay day costs £110.25 all-in, and a yellow-line waiver costs £36.75 per vehicle per day; applications need 10 working days’ notice.

MITCHAM · MAN AND VAN
Man and van can be considered for smaller loads, furniture collections and moves where the inventory and expected work suit the chosen crew. List the items, give their approximate size, and explain whether you need carrying help, loading and unloading at both addresses or assistance with stairs.
Ask for the crew options, duration basis, total charges and terms to be set out in writing before confirming a booking. Confirm how the duration is calculated and whether any other charges or terms apply to your move.
Provide both postcodes, access information and your preferred date. Agree the crew, vehicle, tasks, duration basis, total charges and terms in writing before confirming a booking.

South London · LOCAL MOVE BRIEF
Mitcham is the older, eastern end of the borough of Merton, built around Fair Green and the common rather than a single high street. Victorian terraces line the streets near the centre and along Morden Road, 1930s semis spread towards Pollards Hill and the Streatham side, and maisonettes and smaller flat blocks sit near Mitcham Eastfields and Mitcham Junction stations. Mitcham Common takes up much of the south, so journeys between the two ends of a move often route around it. Most houses load from the street or a short drive, while the centre and station streets are busier and can have controlled parking.
Mitcham is the location reference for this page; the actual postcodes, inventory, access details and confirmed local requirements should guide the final plan.
For a man-and-van job in Mitcham, list each item, its approximate size and where it is carried from and to. Share both postcodes and access details so the vehicle, crew and expected work can be discussed.
MITCHAM · LOCAL DETAIL
Most Mitcham collections load from the street or a short drive outside the house. The exceptions are the centre and the station streets, where stopping space is tighter and the one-way system matters, so confirm the loading point beforehand, and the street position is a Merton suspension (£36.75 admin plus £36.75 per bay on the first day; a two-bay day £110.25 all-in; 10 working days’ notice). Within London the service runs on the hourly card in the prices panel on this page, with a 2-hour minimum, and your written quote confirms the crew size and the time basis.

A PRACTICAL MOVE PLAN
Work through the panels below to scope man and van in Mitcham, what moves, where it loads, and how the handover is confirmed.

01 / 03
Describe every item rather than estimating only by room count. Include large furniture, appliances, boxes and anything unusually heavy or fragile, then ask whether the expected load fits the selected crew and vehicle.

02 / 03
Say whether you need help loading, unloading or carrying from upper floors, and whether someone will be available to assist. The crew choice should reflect the work at both properties, not just the number of belongings.

03 / 03
Confirm when the time starts, how additional hours are counted, and whether travel, parking, waiting or other charges apply to your specific booking.
SCOPE IT CLEARLY
A detailed brief helps both sides discuss the same work. Treat optional tasks and related charges as unconfirmed until they appear in the written scope.

Item list and sizes, both postcodes, access, loading help needed, expected duration and selected team preference.
Vehicle suitability, start/finish point for billable time, extra-hour rounding, travel or parking charges and any exclusions.
PLAN BEFORE BOOKING

01
Prepare the inventory or task list for man and van. Identify what is included, what is excluded and any item or access detail that needs a separate discussion.
02
Provide the collection and delivery postcodes for Mitcham and any other destination. Check loading, parking and building arrangements with the responsible authority or property contact.
03
Before booking, confirm the service scope, schedule, charges, additional work, exclusions and applicable terms in writing. Ask questions if any part of the plan is unclear.
YOUR MITCHAM MOVE
For a useful discussion, send both full postcodes, your preferred date and the relevant man and van details. Any local arrangements should be checked against the precise address and confirmed with the appropriate council, site contact or building manager.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Often, yes: one bulky item, several pieces of furniture or a modest maisonette load are typical bookings. Give every item with approximate sizes, say if you want help carrying at both ends, and ask whether the load suits the crew quoted.
Your written quote states when the clock starts, how extra time is counted and what the booking includes. A long carry, a wait for loading space near the centre or a slow run around the common can add time, so confirmed access helps keep the job to plan.
Where a driveway is available, usually not. For on-street loading, near Fair Green, the stations or along Morden Road: A Merton suspension costs £36.75 admin plus £36.75 per bay on the first day and £40 per bay on later days, so a two-bay day costs £110.25 all-in, on 10 working days’ notice; agree a stopping point near the entrance.
Say the floor, whether the stairs are your own or shared, and how wide the turns and doorways are. A large item in an upper maisonette may need dismantling or a bigger crew, so include those details in your enquiry.
Insurance is as stated in your written quote: ask us to confirm in writing.
