Default man with van needed

Hi

We have about 20m2 of contents (mainly all boxed) that need moving from Worcester in the UK to Beziers in mid March.

Any recommendations?

thanks, Jemima

Sorry, I can't help at all, but you'll be glad to know that the Arctic spell that lasted over 2 weeks here seems to be over!
Bon voyage, and let us know how you get on!

Rent a Luton and do it yourself, It's what we did.

I rented a Luton when I moved to Italy but it was a lot of driving, I had to return the van, so 2 days from Sheffield to Italy 2 days rest in Italy and then 2 days to return the van and catch a plane back.

I am not sure which is easier / cheaper. If you do the run yourself you have to calculate the van rental, ferry crossing, fuel and toll charges plus I thought tunnel charge through the alps was quiet expensive. And then you have to return the van.

Spoke to a nice chap there but he only does up to 13 m3

Renting a van myself is not an option as am moving with twin babies

And a man with a van will charge that and some "imho", If you can find a part load removals company coming this way you might on par the price.
