Several times a man and van is better

If you are wondering whether you are going to need a full professional removal service next time you have a relocation job on your hands, or you will manage by hiring a man and van, here are some hints that will point out to you the cases in which the latter option would be more viable.

What is a man and van?

Well, basically, a man with a van service is a moving service that provides you with one or two movers along with a transit vehicle of a smaller scale than a full size removal truck. There are different kinds of vans – usually they are divided into three categories – Long-wheel base, short-wheel base and mid-wheel base – that can accommodate different volumes of boxes, furniture, appliances and other goods. While a LWBs can accommodate the requirements of a full home or office removal (provided that the property in question is not so large), vans are usually used for transportation of smaller amounts of goods, or even single items. They are often used for regular deliveries, especially in big cities where traffic is a problem and manoeuvring across narrow streets with limited parking space is part of the daily routine.
