Fixed Removals costs versus hourly rate?
Van Man Removals Edinburgh always prices jobs at a fixed rate we just don’t do hourly rates, why you may ask, well firstly we think its not much an incentive to work by the hour, apart from working very slowly & your paying for the travelling time as well, so it seems unfair for customers and just not good value ~ So if your removals Man with a Van goes the long route round and gets stuck in Edinburgh traffic your paying for it, then there’s the labour part…Working for an hourly rate as I’m sure you do, do you work as hard as you can for your employer, going that extra mile to get the job done ? Well there you go… question answered!! So imagine how long the jobs going to take, especially if it s a 3rd floor job, sounds cheap at £20 per hour doesn’t it ? but if it takes 3-4 hours you’ll probably pay more for their moving service than you would do for our removal service that’s a clear fact!
If you look at some larger company websites offering Domestic and Commercial clearances and to a smaller extent removals in Edinburgh, they list per hour prices coming at in £35ph and have minimum 2 hr charges which to me are massively over priced for this type of service, professional budget removals, considering I’ve recently heard they are no longer in business… whether thats to do with their charges I’ve no idea…It just means more work for Van Man Removals !!!
