London's man and van marketplace

City2City puts customers and checked local drivers in the same place: you describe the job, compare the drivers who can do it, and book the one you want.

What City2City is

A marketplace, not a removals firm

City2City connects people who need something moved with checked local drivers who have a van and the time to do it. The platform handles the quoting, the comparison, the booking and the payment. The driving is done by the driver you choose.

That is why prices differ from one driver to the next, and why you can see who is taking your job before you pay.

  • Drivers are independent — they own the van and run their own business.
  • Drivers set their own hourly rate and their own minimum booking.
  • You pick the driver, rather than being allocated one.
  • Every driver is checked before they can take a single job.
  • Congestion Charge and ULEZ are already inside the quote.
  • Everything is booked online, or on the Android customer app.
How the marketplace works

From a postcode to a booked driver

The same four steps sit behind every job on City2City, whether it is a single sofa or a three-bedroom house.

01

You describe the job

Collection and delivery addresses, floor and lift at each one, any extra stops, the date and time, what you are moving and whether you want help loading.

02

You get a job summary

The route, the mileage and an estimated duration for the job, so you know what you are asking a driver to do before anyone quotes.

03

You choose a driver

Available drivers are listed side by side. Compare them on price, rating, jobs completed and van size, then open a profile to look closer.

04

You pay by card

Payment is taken by card through Stripe when you book. The driver is paid out after the job is completed.

Who charges what

The price you see is the driver's own price for your job. City2City does not set it. City2City adds its booking fee on top of the driver's price, and the driver is paid their price through Stripe once the job is done. Every quote already covers mileage, fuel, insurance, the van size, the helpers you asked for, the travel time you selected, the Congestion Charge and ULEZ. The price only moves if the job runs past the hours you booked, at the overtime rate shown before you pay.

Driver checks

What a driver has to produce before they join

Drivers on City2City are independent, but they do not get to take work on the platform until the paperwork is in. Three separate insurances are required, not one.

Driving licence
A valid licence has to be on file before a driver can be listed.
Vehicle registration (V5)
The V5 for the van they will bring to your job.
Goods in Transit insurance
Cover for the things being carried in the van.
Hire and Reward insurance
The cover needed to carry other people's goods for payment.
Public Liability insurance
Cover for damage or injury while the job is being done.
Rated after every job
Customers rate the driver once the booking closes, and it shows on their profile.

Plain speaking

Things worth saying out loud

City2City does not own vans

The vans on the platform belong to the drivers who run them. City2City’s terms are clear that it does not operate vehicles itself.

City2City does not employ the drivers

Each driver is a self-employed business booking work through the platform, which is why they set their own rate and their own availability.

City2City is early on

The platform is new and the number of drivers is still growing. You will not find inflated job counts or an invented star rating anywhere on this site.
