Are you moving house? Or changing offices? Juggling torches on a unicycle is like riding an unicycle while juggling flames. It’s stressful to say the least. If you live in Edinburgh there is a service that will make it feel like an oasis. It’s called the van man, click here for more information.
Imagine you have boxes higher than Everest, and furniture that is heavier than Aunt Mabel’s after the Christmas meal. Renting a huge truck to navigate those winding, narrow streets would make any person break into hives. Our story begins with the van-driving hero.
Don’t be fooled by the name. It’s not just a bloke in a car with some wheels and space at the back. They are professionals. These guys know Edinburgh better than anyone else – they’re familiar with every parking space, shortcut and tight corner.
Imagine yourself enjoying a nice cup of tea as they handle all the hard work. Sounds dreamy, right? It’s more than just moving things from one place to another. Your belongings are treated as precious ancient artifacts.
Dave, a friend of mine, was once moving his vinyl collection (first editions only). The thought that they might get damaged made him sweat buckets. These lads treated each record as if it were made from spun sugar. There was not a single scratch to be seen!
There’s still more! They’re not just for large moves. You need to move an old couch? You bought an old wardrobe and it won’t fit into your hatchback. There is no job too big or small.
Sarah is another friend of mine. On a whim, she decided to decorate her apartment (you’re aware of how ideas strike at 2AM). The woman found a fantastic used bookcase on the internet, but she had no idea how to transport it without strapping it up to her roof. Our man in the van is here! The problem is solved quicker than you can even say, “IKEA”.
These services can be cheaper than traditional moving companies or van rentals. Expertise without the high cost.
How do you find one? It’s easy peasy! You can find a lot of information online, including reviews by people who have been to the place and done it.
You remember when I said those streets were winding? It can be a huge time saver to have someone with local knowledge. They’re also usually very flexible when it comes to timing, which is perfect for last-minute changes or plans.
Let’s now talk about something that everyone loves – the customer service. Have you ever dealt with a company where you were treated like a number? Here, you won’t! They are proud of what they do, and their customers receive the same treatment.
One driver told me that he helped a lady who was downsizing to move all of her plants and garden because she could not bear to leave them behind! What dedication!
Next time you need to move or transport something across town, remember the unsung hero of the man in a van. He will be at your service and provide top-notch services without making dents in your pocket!
Edinburgh is famous for castles, festivals and other attractions but nothing compares to the convenience of having such helpful help at your disposal 24/7. It makes life so much easier.
