Why small delays matter on a smaller move
On a man and van booking, a short hold-up repeats quickly. If the driver loses time to a poor loading point, coded access, extra stair cycles or a long walk from the van, the total can move even when the distance itself is modest.
That is why hidden costs in Maldon are usually about friction, not surprise mileage.

The details people most often leave out
The most common omissions are awkward furniture, access controls, weak stopping options and the true door-to-van route. In Maldon, visitor traffic and school-run windows can also turn an otherwise simple stop into a slower loading window.
Flagging those points early is the easiest way to avoid a tidy quote turning into a stretched job.
