Yes, insurance coverage is included. Every man and van booking includes Goods in Transit insurance, which protects your items throughout the journey—during loading, transport, and unloading.

Our premium Gold drivers also hold Public Liability insurance. When choosing your driver, you'll see their full insurance details so you can book with confidence.

If you're moving large or high-value items, please verify the insurance coverage level with your chosen driver to ensure it meets your requirements.

Yes, most man and van drivers are experienced with stairs and tricky access situations like narrow hallways, tight corners, or properties without lifts. It's part of the job, especially in Derry where many homes have challenging layouts.

To ensure a smooth move, let your driver know about any access issues when you book—for example, if you're on the third floor with no lift, have a narrow stairwell, or restricted parking. This helps them come prepared with the right equipment and allows enough time in their schedule.

If access is particularly difficult, it may add to the overall time needed for loading and unloading, which affects the final cost for hourly bookings. Being upfront about access means you get an accurate quote from the start.

Our drivers are used to working in all kinds of properties across Derry, so stairs and awkward spaces are rarely a problem—they just need to know in advance.

Yes, we can often arrange urgent and same-day collections or deliveries in Derry, though availability depends on how busy local drivers are and the time you need.

For urgent bookings, call us directly so we can check availability immediately and confirm your booking on the spot. Online bookings can usually be made up to three hours before your preferred time slot, but same-day options after 6 p.m. may be limited.

Many of our partners specialise in short-notice jobs like marketplace collections, last-minute deliveries, or urgent furniture moves. Let us know what you need and when, and we'll do our best to find a driver who can help.
