Moving to halls or changing house between terms? Start with what you are taking and when you can get into the room. PayAVan lets you describe the load, compare date estimates and request any extra help before agreeing the move with a driver.
Include the things outside your bedroom: kitchen boxes, a bike in the hallway and furniture you bought during the year. Add quantities to the inventory and measure bulky pieces. Enter the total load weight for the estimate; your driver needs to confirm the vehicle and carrying space.
Ask your accommodation team when you can move in and where a van can stop. Put the building name, floor and lift details in the request. If reception has a fixed handover window, write the exact times in the driver notes and agree them before booking.
Pack the things you need on arrival separately, including medication, chargers and bedding. Label shared-house boxes with your name and room so they reach the right place. Arrange your own travel; ask the driver before relying on a passenger seat.
A box of books and a wardrobe need different handling. Describe anything heavy, awkward or fragile and request an extra helper if needed. Packing and furniture assembly are also requests for driver confirmation. Agree availability and any extra cost before booking.
Send a storage enquiry with the dates, contents and location. Say whether you need collection and later redelivery. Storage availability and pricing need review. For a move between countries, use the international enquiry instead of a domestic estimate.
Add your route, items, date and access details. Use your email to save the move, then confirm it before sending your request to drivers.
Post your move, compare the offers and check what each driver includes before booking.
Message your driver after booking. Follow the job status and see their location when they share it.
