Man and Van in Essex, from £60. We'll call you back with a fixed price.

Man and Van across Essex

Beyond the main cities we regularly work in Billericay, Harlow, Brentwood, Braintree and Clacton-on-Sea. Homes, rental properties, shops, offices and building sites all get the same service: a uniformed crew, careful loading, and paperwork showing where your waste went. All disposal goes through licensed facilities regulated by the Environment Agency.

Choosing the right man and van company in Essex matters more than most people realise. If waste you hand over is fly-tipped, you can be fined, even if someone else dumped it. That's why we're a registered waste carrier, why we issue waste transfer notes, and why we put reuse and recycling first.

Why choose JunkSphere in Essex

Fixed prices, agreed before we start

We don't do vague estimates. You get a clear price for man and van in Essex, starting at £60, with labour, loading, transport and disposal all included. Our crews confirm the price on arrival before they lift anything, and if the job turns out smaller than you thought, the price comes down. It's the same approach whether you're clearing one item or a whole property.

Same-day and next-day slots

Our vans run daily rounds across Essex, which means we can often fit you in the same day you call, and next-day slots are nearly always available. You choose a two-hour arrival window and the crew calls ahead so you're not stuck waiting in. Evening and weekend bookings are available for people who can't take time off work.

Licensed, insured and accountable

Handing waste to an unlicensed collector is a risk: if it's dumped, the fine can come back to you. We're a registered waste carrier working within the rules set by the Environment Agency, we hold public liability insurance, and every job can come with paperwork showing exactly where your waste went. Ask to see our licence at any time.

Reuse and recycling before landfill

We sort what we collect rather than tipping it all in one place. Usable furniture and household goods are offered to charities and reuse projects around Essex, then metal, wood, cardboard, green waste and electricals are separated at licensed recycling sites. Only what genuinely can't be reused or recycled goes for disposal.

Man and Van in Essex: common questions

Which parts of Essex do you cover?

We cover the whole of Essex, including Chelmsford, Colchester, Southend-on-Sea, Basildon, Billericay, Harlow, Brentwood and the villages around them. Enter your postcode on the quote form and we'll confirm the next available slot.

Is there a call-out charge in Essex?

No. Prices for man and van in Essex start from £60 and include travel, labour and disposal. Rural addresses a long way from our usual rounds may carry a small travel supplement, which we'll always tell you about before you book.

How is the price calculated?

Man and van jobs are charged by time from arrival to finish, starting at £60 for the first hour. For fixed moves like a studio or single item we can quote a set price instead.

Will the driver help carry items?

Yes. Every driver is also a porter. For heavy items, lots of stairs or tight timescales we recommend two people, which we'll suggest when you book.

Are my things insured?

Goods in transit and public liability cover come as standard. Tell us about high-value items in advance so we can pack and load them accordingly.
