Man And Van Parsonsgreen Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions set out the basis on which Man And Van Parsonsgreen provides removal, transportation, loading, unloading, collection, delivery, and related services within the United Kingdom. By making a booking, you agree to be bound by the terms below. Please read them carefully before confirming any service. These terms are intended to be fair, clear, and practical, and they apply whether you use a man and van service in Parsonsgreen for home moving, furniture transport, item collection, or a light commercial job.
The purpose of this document is to explain how bookings are made, how payments are handled, when cancellations may apply, what responsibilities each party has, and how waste handling is regulated. These terms are a legal page and do not replace any rights you may have under UK law. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot lawfully be excluded. References to “we”, “us”, and “our” mean the provider of the Man And Van Parsonsgreen service; references to “you” and “your” mean the customer or any person acting on the customer’s behalf.
If you book on behalf of another person, you confirm that you are authorised to do so and that the person receiving the service has read or been informed of these conditions. Any quotation or estimate is based on the information supplied by you and may be revised if the job differs from what was described. By proceeding, you accept that the final service may be affected by access conditions, item size, weight, parking, waiting time, or other factors outside our control.
All bookings are subject to availability. A booking is only confirmed once we accept the job, agree the date and time, and, where required, receive any deposit or booking fee. We may ask for details such as the collection and delivery address, item list, floor level, access restrictions, parking information, and whether any items require dismantling or special handling. Accurate information is essential because a man with a van in Parsonsgreen can only assess the job properly when the details provided are correct.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel a booking if the information supplied is incomplete, misleading, unsafe, or materially different from the actual job. If the service requested requires more labour, time, or vehicle space than originally agreed, we may offer an updated quote before proceeding. The booking process may be completed by phone, email, text, online form, or another accepted method, but the agreement becomes binding only when both sides understand and accept the key service terms.
Where an arrival time is given, it is an estimate rather than a guarantee unless expressly stated otherwise. Delays may occur due to traffic, weather, access issues, or prior job overruns. We will use reasonable efforts to arrive within the agreed window and to keep you informed if the schedule changes. If the job requires waiting time because access is not ready, keys are unavailable, or the destination cannot receive the items, additional charges may apply.
Payment terms will be confirmed at the time of booking or before the service begins. Unless otherwise agreed, payment is due immediately on completion of the job. We may accept payment by cash, bank transfer, card, or another method agreed in advance. For certain bookings, a deposit may be required to secure the date. Any deposit is usually non-refundable except where we cancel the booking or where non-refund would be unlawful. All prices are stated in pounds sterling unless clearly set out otherwise.
If the quotation is based on an hourly rate, the total charge will reflect the time spent working, including reasonable loading, unloading, and waiting periods, where applicable. If the booking is based on a fixed price, that price applies only to the agreed scope of work. Additional services, such as extra trips, stair carries, dismantling, reassembly, packaging materials, or moving items not declared in advance, may incur further costs. We may also charge for congestion, parking, tolls, ferry fees, or disposal charges where these are relevant to the job.
If payment is not made when due, we reserve the right to withhold completion documents, refuse future bookings, or take lawful steps to recover outstanding sums. You are responsible for ensuring that the payer has sufficient funds and authority to make the payment. Where invoices are issued, they must be paid by the due date shown. Any dispute regarding an invoice must be raised promptly and in good faith, but undisputed amounts remain payable on time.
Cancellations, Changes, and Delays
You may cancel or reschedule a booking, but cancellation charges may apply depending on how much notice is given and whether work has already started. If you cancel with sufficient notice, we may waive any fee or only retain a reasonable administration or booking charge. If you cancel at short notice, fail to provide access, or are not present when the service is due to start, you may be charged in full or in part for the lost time and reserved capacity. The exact charge will depend on the circumstances of the booking.
We may also cancel or reschedule if circumstances beyond our control make it unsafe, unlawful, or impractical to perform the service. This includes severe weather, vehicle breakdown, road closures, illness, or events that prevent access or safe completion. In such cases, we will aim to rearrange the service at a mutually suitable time. Where we cancel and no alternative date is agreed, any prepaid amount for the affected portion of the service will normally be refunded, subject to lawful deductions for work already carried out.
If you request a change to the job after confirmation, we will assess whether the revised service can be provided and whether the price or timing needs to change. Changes to item volume, address, loading conditions, or service type may affect the quote. A Parsonsgreen man and van booking is planned around the details you give at the time of reservation, so major changes may require a new estimate or revised terms before work continues.
We take care to provide a professional service, but liability must be limited in a fair and reasonable way. We are responsible for loss or damage only where it is caused by our negligence, breach of contract, or other legal fault. We are not responsible for pre-existing damage, items that were poorly packed, loose fittings, hidden defects, or damage caused by the normal handling of goods unless we failed to act with reasonable care. You should ensure that fragile, valuable, or sentimental items are adequately protected and clearly identified before transport.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, we do not accept responsibility for items of exceptional value such as cash, jewellery, antiques, artwork, confidential documents, or electronics with irreplaceable data, unless they were specifically disclosed and we agreed to carry them. Where liability is established, it may be limited to the reasonable repair or replacement cost of the item, taking into account age, condition, and depreciation. We are not liable for indirect losses, loss of earnings, missed appointments, or consequential costs, except where such exclusion is not permitted by law.
You are responsible for securing access, removing hazards, and ensuring that pathways, lifts, stairs, and parking areas are suitable for the service. We may refuse to move items that are unsafe, excessively heavy for one person to handle safely, contaminated, alive, illegal, or likely to cause injury or damage. If we agree to move an item and you have not disclosed a risk, we may suspend the service until the risk is removed or amended terms are agreed. Any assistance provided by you, your family, tenants, staff, or third parties is at your own risk unless we expressly direct otherwise.
Waste regulations are an important part of our service. If the booking involves waste collection, disposal, or removal of unwanted items, you must tell us in advance exactly what is to be collected. We only handle waste in accordance with UK law, including any applicable environmental, licensing, and duty-of-care requirements. We may decline to take items that are hazardous, prohibited, or not described accurately. Examples can include chemicals, asbestos, clinical waste, paint, oils, gas cylinders, tyres, fridges with restricted components, or electrical items requiring specific treatment.
Where waste is accepted, we may need to separate reusable goods, recyclable material, and general waste in order to comply with legal requirements and responsible disposal practices. You confirm that any waste handed over to us belongs to you or that you have authority to arrange its removal. You also confirm that the waste is not illegally dumped, fly-tipped, stolen, or subject to any restriction that prevents transfer. If a waste transfer note, record, or declaration is required by law, you agree to provide the necessary information and to cooperate with reasonable compliance steps.
If a collection includes items that turn out to be regulated waste, additional charges may apply for handling, disposal, or specialist transport. We will not knowingly breach environmental law, and we may stop the service if the load is misdescribed or unsafe. You remain responsible for honesty and accuracy in declaring waste. If we are later asked by a lawful authority to identify the source, nature, or destination of a waste load, you agree to assist where reasonably required and to provide truthful information.
Customer Responsibilities
To make the service run smoothly, you must ensure that the collection and delivery points are accessible and ready at the agreed time. This includes arranging parking where necessary, obtaining permits if required, and making sure doors, gates, lifts, or loading bays can be used safely. You are also responsible for identifying any restricted access, narrow stairways, low ceilings, or other obstacles that may affect the move. If the vehicle cannot be parked legally or reasonably close to the property, extra time or charges may arise.
You must pack items properly unless we have agreed to supply packing or wrapping services. Boxes should be secure, and fragile items should be protected. Drawers, cupboards, and loose parts should be emptied or secured unless we specifically agree to move them as they are. Pets, children, and bystanders should be kept away from the working area for safety. If you or another person assists with lifting, carrying, or guiding items, that assistance is provided at your own risk unless otherwise agreed in writing.
It is also your responsibility to ensure that you have the legal right to move the goods and that no item is subject to ownership disputes, security interests, court orders, or restrictions. We may rely on your statement that the goods belong to you or that you have authority to move them. If a third party later raises a claim in relation to the goods, you agree to indemnify us against any reasonable losses arising from following your instructions, except where the issue was caused by our own fault.
Force Majeure, Complaints, and Legal Terms
We are not liable for failure or delay caused by events outside our reasonable control, including but not limited to extreme weather, fire, flood, civil disturbance, strikes, border restrictions, public emergencies, or government action. If such an event occurs, we will use reasonable efforts to minimise disruption and to resume the service as soon as practical. Where performance is prevented entirely, our obligations may be suspended or cancelled without liability, except for any refund rights that apply under these terms or under law.
Any complaint about the service should be raised as soon as possible so that we may review the issue promptly. We may ask for photos, written details, or other reasonable evidence in order to investigate properly. If we agree that a problem occurred and we are responsible, our remedy may include repair, replacement, re-performance of the service, a partial refund, or another fair solution permitted by law. No complaint process limits your statutory rights, and nothing in these terms prevents you from seeking remedies available under UK consumer law.
These terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the service, unless we have agreed additional written terms. If any part of these terms is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining parts will continue in effect. A failure by us to enforce any term on one occasion does not mean we waive the right to enforce it later. Any variation to these terms must be agreed in writing or through another clear and traceable form of acceptance.
The service is governed by the laws of England and Wales. If a dispute cannot be resolved amicably, it will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, unless mandatory consumer law provides otherwise. These terms have been written to reflect a professional man and van service in a clear and lawful manner, with the aim of preventing misunderstandings and protecting both parties. By booking and using the service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these conditions.
