Man With Van Snaresbrook Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions set out the basis on which Man With Van Snaresbrook provides removal, transport, collection, delivery, and related services to customers. By making a booking, the customer agrees to be bound by these terms, which are designed to create a clear, fair, and practical agreement for both parties. Throughout this document, references to “we,” “us,” and “our” mean the service provider, while “you” and “your” refer to the customer making the booking.
These conditions apply to all quotations, reservations, and confirmed jobs for a van and man service in Snaresbrook, unless otherwise agreed in writing. They cover the booking process, payment arrangements, cancellation rules, liability limits, waste handling obligations, and the governing law that applies to the agreement. If any part of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remainder will continue to apply in full force.
Our services are intended for domestic and commercial transport tasks of a lawful nature. By using our man with a van service, you confirm that all information supplied by you is accurate, that the items to be moved are lawful to transport, and that the premises involved are safe and suitable for the work requested. You also confirm that you have authority to arrange the work and to permit access to the relevant property or goods.
Booking process begins when you submit an enquiry with details of the collection and delivery points, the type and quantity of items, access conditions, preferred dates, and any special handling needs. Any quotation we provide is based on the information supplied at that time. If the job details change, we may revise the quote, alter the vehicle size, amend the number of staff required, or decline the booking if the new requirements fall outside the agreed scope.
A booking is not confirmed until we have accepted it, the required deposit or full payment has been received if applicable, and you have received confirmation from us. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel a booking where there is a concern about safety, legality, unpaid balances, inaccurate information, unrealistic timeframes, or inaccessible premises. The customer must ensure that all items are ready for loading at the agreed time and that parking, access, permits, and any required authorisations are arranged in advance unless we have expressly agreed to handle them.
Where a Man With Van Snaresbrook service is booked for multiple stops, onward delivery, or waiting time, the quoted price may reflect the anticipated duration and complexity of the job. Additional charges may apply if loading or unloading takes longer than expected, if stairs, long carries, or heavy items are involved, or if we are delayed by circumstances beyond our control. We may also charge for failed attendance where the job cannot proceed because the site is unsuitable or the customer is not ready.
Payments must be made in the manner and by the time agreed at booking. Unless we state otherwise, all prices are quoted in pounds sterling and may be subject to VAT where applicable. We may request a deposit, partial prepayment, or full payment before the job begins. If payment is due on completion, it must be made immediately once the service has been provided, unless otherwise agreed in writing. We accept no obligation to release goods, continue a move, or complete a delivery if payment is overdue.
If any extra charges arise during the job, including waiting time, additional labour, congestion-related delays, parking costs, tolls, disposal charges, or additional mileage caused by a change of destination, these will be added to the final invoice. The customer agrees to pay all undisputed charges within the time stated on the invoice. Failure to pay may result in recovery action, interest, and reasonable debt collection costs where permitted by law.
Prices quoted for man with van Snaresbrook services are usually based on the information provided before the booking is accepted. We do not guarantee that a quote remains fixed if the scope changes, if access becomes more difficult, or if the customer requests work outside the original arrangement. Any discount, promotional offer, or special rate will apply only if confirmed by us and only for the period or conditions stated.
Cancellations and rescheduling must be requested as soon as possible. If you cancel a confirmed booking, cancellation charges may apply depending on how much notice is given and whether costs have already been incurred. Where a booking is cancelled at short notice, or where we attend but cannot complete the work due to matters within your control, we may charge a call-out fee, a percentage of the agreed price, or the full amount if the cancellation occurs after dispatch or arrival.
We may reschedule a job where necessary for operational reasons, vehicle availability, safety concerns, severe weather, traffic disruption, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control. If we need to change the date or time, we will aim to notify you promptly and offer a reasonable alternative. We will not be responsible for losses caused by a delay or rescheduling where the event is outside our control, provided we act with reasonable care.
If you wish to amend a booking, including changes to address, item list, access arrangements, timing, or service level, you must tell us before the move begins. Changes may affect price, vehicle size, staffing, and completion time. A request to reduce the scope of work does not automatically reduce the agreed charge if costs have already been committed. For clarity, van removal services in Snaresbrook are scheduled according to available resources, and last-minute changes may not always be possible.
Liability is limited to the extent permitted by English law. We will take reasonable care when handling goods, but the customer remains responsible for ensuring that items are suitably packed, protected, and marked as fragile where necessary. We are not liable for damage caused by inadequate packing, inherent weakness, pre-existing defects, normal wear and tear, or customer instructions that conflict with our professional judgment.
We are not responsible for loss or damage to items of particularly high value unless their nature and value were declared to us in advance and we agreed in writing to accept responsibility for them. This includes, but is not limited to, antiques, jewellery, cash, documents, artwork, collectibles, or irreplaceable personal items. Customers should arrange appropriate insurance for goods of unusual value, and they must keep essential or sentimental items with them where practical.
Our total liability for any claim arising from the service, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, shall be limited to the amount paid or payable for the specific job in question, except where liability cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Nothing in these terms excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other matter that cannot be excluded under applicable law. We are not liable for indirect or consequential losses such as loss of profits, missed appointments, business interruption, or emotional distress.
Customer responsibilities include ensuring that goods are lawful to transport, that the collection and delivery addresses are accurate, and that the premises are safe for the planned work. You must tell us in advance about narrow stairways, lift restrictions, parking limitations, access codes, security rules, or any other issue that may affect the service. You are also responsible for securing pets, children, and valuable items during the move, and for removing loose contents from furniture unless we have agreed to pack them.
If you ask us to move an item that is fragile, hazardous, or unusually heavy, you must disclose this before the job begins. We may refuse to move items that are unsafe, prohibited, illegal, or beyond reasonable handling limits. If we agree to handle such items, you accept that the task may carry greater risk and may require additional labour, specialist equipment, or a revised quote. We may decline to lift or carry any item where we believe there is a health and safety concern.
Where the service includes dismantling or reassembly, we will take reasonable care, but we are not responsible for defects in items that are structurally weak, incomplete, or unsuitable for repeated assembly. Fixings, screws, and small parts should be kept together by the customer unless we agree otherwise. Any instructions given by you must be lawful, safe, and practical. If you insist on proceeding against our advice, you do so at your own risk and may be asked to confirm that instruction in writing.
Waste regulations apply when items are removed for disposal rather than transport. We operate in accordance with relevant UK waste laws, including duties relating to waste transfer, lawful disposal, and responsible handling of unwanted materials. We do not accept responsibility for disposing of controlled waste, hazardous waste, clinical waste, asbestos, chemicals, oils, gas cylinders, or any other item that requires special licensing unless we have expressly agreed to do so and are legally permitted to do so.
If you ask us to remove waste, you confirm that you have the right to dispose of those materials and that they have been correctly described. You must not conceal prohibited items within general rubbish or mislabel waste to avoid higher disposal costs. We may inspect items before acceptance and refuse anything that does not comply with legal or operational requirements. Any extra disposal costs, permits, or third-party charges will be passed on to you where applicable.
Where required, we may issue or retain documentation relating to the movement or disposal of waste. You agree to cooperate with any lawful request for information about the source, type, or quantity of waste. Man with van Snaresbrook waste collections are offered only on the basis that the material is lawful to handle and that all relevant rules are followed. If illegal or misdeclared waste is discovered, we may stop work immediately and report the matter to the appropriate authority if required by law.
Delays and force majeure may affect the timing or performance of a booking. We are not responsible for delays caused by traffic, road closures, severe weather, accidents, vehicle breakdown, staff illness, industrial action, police activity, or any other event beyond our reasonable control. In such cases, we will use reasonable efforts to complete the work or arrange an alternative date, but no compensation will be payable for inconvenience or consequential loss.
We may suspend or terminate the service immediately if you or anyone acting on your behalf behaves abusively, threatens safety, interferes with the work, provides false information, or requests illegal activity. In such circumstances, we may charge for time already spent, travel already undertaken, and any costs incurred. We may also stop work if we reasonably believe continuing would breach the law, create a safety risk, or expose us to unreasonable liability.
Claims procedure requires that any complaint about loss, damage, or service issues is raised as soon as reasonably possible and in any event within a reasonable time after completion of the job. You must provide evidence of the issue, including photographs, descriptions, and any supporting documents we may reasonably request. We will review the matter fairly and may offer repair, replacement, partial refund, or another appropriate remedy where liability is accepted and where such remedy is reasonable.
These terms form the entire agreement between you and us for the relevant service, unless amended in writing and signed or otherwise confirmed by an authorised representative. Any previous discussions, quotations, or understandings not included here do not form part of the contract. If we do not insist immediately on strict performance of any obligation, that does not mean we waive our rights under these terms.
Any variation to these terms must be agreed in writing. If one clause is invalid or unenforceable, it will be interpreted, where possible, so as to reflect the original intention, and the remaining clauses will continue in effect. The headings used in this document are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. References to the singular include the plural and vice versa where the context allows.
These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and any dispute arising from or connected with them shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. By using our Man With Van Snaresbrook services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these terms in full.
For legal certainty, customers should keep a copy of the booking confirmation and any written amendments. We recommend reviewing the agreed service details carefully before the move date so that the booking accurately reflects the work required. These terms are designed to support a professional man with a van arrangement with clear responsibilities on both sides, helping reduce misunderstandings and ensuring that services are provided in a lawful, orderly, and predictable way.
