When is it busiest for moves in Galway city?

Late August, September and the end of the college year are busy because of student and rental moves. Posting a week or two ahead gives you more choice.

Will drivers cover Clifden, Tuam or Portumna?

Many cover the whole county and some do cross-county runs. Include both addresses so they can quote for the actual distance.

Does the driver help with lifting?

Most will help load and unload, but heavy items like pianos or American fridges may need a second person. Say what you have so quotes reflect it.

Can a van driver take rubbish away?

Some do, but waste must go to an authorised facility. Ask the driver how and where they dispose of it.

How are prices usually set?

Quotes are often by the hour or a fixed price per job, depending on distance and load. Comparing a few quotes on the same details works best.

Van hire with a driver across Galway

Galway has a busy rental market, so student and tenant moves around Galway city, Salthill, Knocknacarra and Oranmore peak at the end of semesters and lease terms. Out in the county, jobs from Athenry, Tuam, Gort and Clifden often involve longer drives and farm or holiday home clear-outs. Tight city-centre streets, terraced houses with no driveway and apartment blocks with small lifts all affect how long a job takes. When posting, give both Eircodes, floor levels, lift access, a list of large items, parking options and any date you must be out by.
