2 Man Courier Service
Our 2 man courier service sends two people and a van booked for your job alone. They collect the heavy or awkward item, carry it up the stairs and set it down in the room where it’s going. Crews go out today, not only on a date three days away.

Tell us the item, its rough weight, the floor it’s going to and whether there’s a lift. One fixed figure comes back, day or night.
What is a 2 man delivery?
It’s a delivery made by two people instead of one, so an item too heavy or awkward for a single driver can be lifted safely, carried up stairs and placed in the room you choose. We send the crew in a van sized to the item, usually within 30 to 60 minutes of booking in London and the South East, and drive it straight to the address at one fixed, all-inclusive price.
What Our 2 Man Courier Service Moves
Our 2 man courier service moves anything that needs a person at each end: a sofa to a third-floor flat, a stone worktop to a kitchen fitter, a photocopier into an office with no goods lift. Every job is fast, reliable, direct and fairly priced, and the same two people stay with the item from your door to the spot where it’s set down.
Sofas and Wardrobes
Carried round the landing and placed in the room, not left blocking your hallway.

Mostly businesses whose customer is waiting at the other end. Bulky, fragile and high-value goods get secure single handling: loaded once, unloaded once, and never left on a sorting floor.
Retail and eCommerce
Online furniture and appliance sellers who need a big order at the customer’s door today, not in a two-day delivery window.
Construction and Trades
Kitchen fitters, bathroom firms and builders waiting on worktops, baths, sanitaryware or a boiler before the next trade can start.
Offices and Facilities
Copiers, safes, desks and server cabinets moved between floors or sites, timed around a goods lift booking.
Events and Exhibitions
Stands, screens and display cases into a venue loading bay, inside the slot the organiser gave you.
Healthcare and NHS
Heavy clinic equipment, beds and specialist chairs carried in by two people and placed in the treatment room.
Print and Media
Large-format printers, framed artwork and studio kit that’s heavy, awkward and expensive to replace.
Why a Two Man Delivery Service Is Worth It
Picture the delivery that goes wrong. A single driver arrives with a 90kg sofa, can’t get it off the van alone, and leaves a card. Your customer took a day off for that. Now they want a refund, a new date and probably a review. For a shop or a trade firm, one failed heavy delivery costs the second run, the lost day and the goodwill. That’s before anyone gets hurt trying to help.
Most 2 man delivery companies run a big multi-drop round, so your wardrobe shares a lorry with twenty others and a delivery window that covers the whole day. Network parcels get handled four to six times, and Ofcom found 68% of people had a delivery problem in six months. Ours goes in one van and comes out at your address. For single sofas, beds and wardrobes or bulky and heavy items, that matters.
A crew is usually with you within 30 to 60 minutes in London and the South East, any hour. Two people isn’t just about strength. HSE guidance says a team should plan on about 85% of what each could lift alone, and on stairs the lower person takes most of the weight. So we ask about the stairs first. You get phone or SMS updates and photo or signature proof with a name and time.
The van fits the job. A long wheelbase van takes loads up to 4m, and a Luton’s tail lift van means nobody lifts a range cooker off the back. One fixed price covers fuel, tolls, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge, with goods-in-transit cover to £10,000. Fragile pieces get our high-value handling. Not sure a crew is needed? Our man and van comparison explains when one person is enough.
White Glove Delivery Service, Explained
White glove delivery means the crew does more than drop the box at the door. They carry it in, unwrap it if you want, place it where it’s going and take the packaging away. Here’s exactly what our crews do, what you can ask for, and what we won’t pretend to offer.
| Task | Included? | What it means in practice |
|---|---|---|
| Carry to the room of your choice | Yes | Any floor, by stairs or lift, as long as the item physically fits and the route is safe |
| Doors, legs and handles off | Yes | Removed where it’s the only way through a doorway, then refitted once the item is in place |
| Unwrapping and packaging removal | On request | Tell us at booking. Cardboard and plastic go back on the van rather than in your bins |
| Old item taken to a second address | On request | Quoted as an extra drop, such as a charity, a family member or another property |
| Full flat-pack assembly | No | We’re couriers, not fitters. Simple refitting of parts we removed is the limit |
| Plumbing in or gas connection | No | Appliances are placed ready for your installer. Gas needs a Gas Safe engineer |
Waste disposal isn’t on that list either. We’re not a licensed waste carrier, so we can move an old item to another address for you, but we won’t take it to a tip. Honest limits now save an argument on the doorstep later.
Which Van Your Crew Brings
We match the smallest van that carries the item safely, which keeps the price down. Our published guide prices are the starting point for the van. The second person’s time is added, and both sit inside one fixed figure agreed before anything is loaded.
| Vehicle | Van guide price | Payload | Typical two person job |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small van | from £39 | Around 400kg | A large mirror, a safe or a single armchair |
| SWB van | from £49 | Around 800kg | A washing machine, a dishwasher or a treadmill |
| LWB van | from £69 | Around 1,200kg, loads to 4m | A three-seat sofa, a worktop run or a wardrobe |
| Luton van (tail lift) | from £89 | Around 1,000kg | A range cooker, a copier or several rooms of furniture |
Nights, weekends and bank holidays cost a little more than the same job on a weekday, and that is already inside the quote. There’s no postcode or rural surcharge, and ferry fares are included, so a crew to the Highlands is priced the same way as one to Islington. Longer runs work out at roughly £1.10 to £1.80 per mile depending on vehicle size, distance and urgency.
Tell Us About the Building, Not Just the Item
Heavy deliveries rarely fail on weight. They fail on a landing that turns too tightly, a lift that’s 10cm too shallow, or a red route outside with nowhere to stop. Five minutes on these questions at booking keeps the job on time.
Worth Telling Us When You Book
- The floor at each end and whether there’s a lift, with its door width and depth
- The narrowest doorway or stair turn on the route, measured if you can
- Rough weight and size of the item, and whether legs or doors come off
- Parking: driveway, permit bay, loading bay or red route
- Any goods lift booking or delivery slot at an office or venue
- Whether the item is boxed, wrapped or bare
Send a photo of the stairs if you’re unsure. A controller can usually tell from one picture whether a sofa will go round, and if it won’t, you’ll hear it before you pay rather than when the crew is standing on the step. Manual handling causes real harm: HSE counts 511,000 workers with musculoskeletal disorders in 2024/25, so we won’t force a lift that isn’t safe.
How It Works
Four steps from your first call to the item standing in the right room, with the price fixed at the first.
Get a Fixed Quote
Send the item, both addresses and the access details. One all-inclusive figure comes back within minutes, so you know the cost before you tell your customer a time.
Book Your Delivery
Confirm and you get it in writing: price, van, crew size and collection window. Nothing changes after that unless you change the job, so you can plan your day around it.
We Collect
Two people arrive, usually within 30 to 60 minutes in London. They photograph the item, wrap it in blankets and strap it, so you have a record of its condition.
We Deliver Direct
No depot and no other drops on the way. The crew carries it in and sets it down, and photo or signature proof is emailed straight away.
Worried It Won’t Get Up the Stairs?
Most failed heavy deliveries come from nobody asking about access first. We ask before you book, and if traffic changes the ETA, we tell you before you ask.
Fixed All-Inclusive Quote
The crew, the van, fuel, tolls, ULEZ and ferry fares sit in one written figure, with nothing added afterwards.
Dedicated Vehicle
Your item is the only job on board, so it isn’t stacked under someone else’s wardrobe on a long round.
Photo and Signature POD
Photos at collection and in place, plus a name, signature and time, emailed to you when the job ends.
24/7 Human Support
A real person answers at 3am or on Christmas Day, and speaks to the crew for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions people type before booking two people and a van, answered straight.
What is a 2 man delivery?
A 2 man delivery is one carried out by two people, so heavy or awkward items can be lifted safely, taken up stairs and placed in the room you choose. It’s used for sofas, appliances, worktops and office equipment that one driver can’t move alone. Ours runs in a dedicated van, collected and delivered direct, with no depot in between.
What does white glove delivery service mean?
White glove delivery means the crew carries the item into your property, places it where you want it and, if you ask, unwraps it and takes the packaging away. It goes further than kerbside or doorstep delivery. Our crews include room placement as standard. Unwrapping and packaging removal are added at booking, and full flat-pack assembly isn’t offered.
How much does a 2 man delivery cost?
It depends on the van, the distance and the access, and you get one fixed price before booking. Our van guide prices start from £39 for a small van up to from £89 for a Luton with a tail lift, and the second person’s time is added to that. Nights, weekends and bank holidays cost a little more, inside the same quote.
Does two man delivery include assembly?
Not full assembly. The crew will take off doors, legs or handles where that’s the only way through a doorway, and refit them once the item is in place. Building flat-pack furniture or plumbing in an appliance is a job for a fitter or installer, and we’d rather say so now than leave you with half a wardrobe.
Can I book a two man crew for today?
Yes. Two man jobs run on a same day basis as well as on booked dates. In London and the South East a crew is usually with you within 30 to 60 minutes of booking. Further afield, we send the nearest crew and confirm an honest arrival time before you commit.
Will the crew carry it up several flights of stairs?
Yes, to any floor, as long as the item fits the stairwell and the lift is safe for two people. Many home delivery firms stop at one flight. We ask for the floor, the narrowest turn and any lift sizes when you book, and if a piece clearly won’t go up, we tell you before the van leaves.
