Featured Man & Van Job
Sofa, chairs and table
Birmingham (B35) → Birmingham (B37)
1 mover · 1 hour
The customer needed a sofa, chairs and table collected from a warehouse before they were disposed of. With a limited collection window available, they needed a reliable team that could complete the job at short notice.
We agreed a price, travelled to the warehouse in B35 and collected everything within the required timeframe. We delivered the items safely to the customer’s flat in B37, used the building’s lift and placed everything in their room of choice.
“Very good experience with ShiftMate. Took the job on at short notice and got me out of a fix. I would highly recommend.”
