Book Your Gateshead-to-York Man and Van
72 miles · 1.5 hours drive · fixed price · fully insured
LMD Logistics runs regular man and van between Gateshead and York — a 72-mile door-to-door route worked out from our Birtley (DH3) base. Your load leaves NE8/NE9/NE10/NE11 in the morning and is unloaded at your York address the same day.
Why our man and van suits this route
On a Gateshead to York man and van run we usually send a two-crew Luton — enough hands for stairs at both ends over the 72-mile corridor, without paying for a full removals team. The van clears A1(M) south then A64 in one hit so nothing sits in overnight storage.
