FAQs 

Does the driver help carry heavy items into my home?

Show

Yes, but you will need to select the appropriate size of team when placing your booking, depending on the size and weight of the item. Please refer to our Top 20 Large Homeware & Furniture Moving Estimates guide above, or reach out via AnyVan Live Chat for support if you are unsure.

What if the item needs to be dismantled or assembled?

Show

It is best to arrange with the seller whether the item will be dismantled before pickup. If an item is already taken apart, it may reduce the crew size or time needed for collection.

Will the AnyVan booking be communicated to the seller?

Show

No, you must check and confirm the collection time and date with the seller.

Can I track my AnyVan delivery in real time?

Show

Once your booking is confirmed, AnyVan provides live tracking links and updates via SMS/email so you know exactly when your driver is on their way.
