Why We Love Autumn

1. Cooler temperature makes for easier loading

2. Halloween decorations! They make the job very interesting

3. The beautiful, fiery colours of freshly fallen leaves

4. Autumn is a big season for buying and moving houses. That means we meet lots of interesting new people!

5. Autumn is the precursor to Christmas. But ssh! We don't talk about that just yet.

Home Moving Apps

I've noticed a number of moving and productivity apps for iOS and Android recently. The question is, are they any good? As a customer, have any of you had a good/bad experience with these? I'd love to know if any are worth recommending. Maybe 1 Van 1 Man should create their own?! Who knows what the future holds...

Furniture Assembly In Pictures

Some snaps of a recent removal I took part in. For all the talk about vans, sometimes the biggest relief to customers is having someone assemble their furniture!

How To Build A Treehouse

Wikihow is one of our favourite websites. Not only is it informative, but it displays information clearly with legible, attractive illustrations. It's the go-to place when you're stuck with a household task, vehicle maintenance or...building a treehouse!

September Beckons!

It's September - a month of golden leaves, cool temperatures and excitement for the festivities ahead. As an ode to September we're posting the most autumnal house we could find.

Setting Up The Very Largest Furniture: The Pyramid Stage

Festival season is drawing to a close. Only a handful remain this summer, then it's back to hibernation for the winter. It's interesting to see how some festivals are set up. We do our fair share of assembly/dismantling in the removals trade, but nothing on this scale!
