Man with a Van, Collections and Deliveries

Gumtree, eBay and Facebook Marketplace collections

Found a bargain online? We collect it and bring it home for you.

About this service

Found a bargain on Gumtree, eBay or Facebook Marketplace? Our collection service is a reliable alternative to hiring a van yourself, with a helpful driver included. We collect from the seller and deliver to your address.

Marketplace collections need a little coordination, because the seller's availability is part of the plan. Agree a collection window with the seller, then send us the details.

What the service includes

  • Collection from the seller's address
  • Help lifting and loading the item
  • Delivery to your home and placement in the room you choose
  • Collection for sellers delivering to a buyer

When customers use it

  • A second-hand sofa or wardrobe bought on Facebook Marketplace
  • An appliance bought on Gumtree
  • A large eBay item marked as collection only
  • A seller who has offered delivery and needs a van

What to tell us for a quote

  • The item and a link to the listing or a photo
  • The seller's area or postcode and your delivery address
  • When the seller is available
  • Stairs and access at both ends
  • Whether payment to the seller has already been made

You can include all of this in the quote form, which builds a WhatsApp message for you to review and send.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be at the collection?

Not necessarily, but the seller must be there and must know we are coming. Share the seller's contact details with us if appropriate.

No. Please arrange payment directly with the seller before collection.
