Man and Van — Birtley to London, Door to Door
242 miles · 4.5 hours drive · fixed price · fully insured
LMD Logistics runs regular man and van between Birtley and London — a 242-mile door-to-door route worked out from our Birtley (DH3) base. Your load leaves DH3 in the morning and is unloaded at your London address the same day.
Why our man and van suits this route
On a Birtley to London man and van run we usually send a two-crew Luton — enough hands for stairs at both ends over the 242-mile corridor, without paying for a full removals team. The van clears A1(M) to the M25 via the A1 in one hit so nothing sits in overnight storage.
