You Bought It — Now Get It Home
Facebook Marketplace is full of deals on furniture in NYC. The catch: the seller wants it gone today, doesn't deliver, and you don't own a van. Marketplace pickup with a van is how the deal actually reaches your apartment.
Confirm the Item, the Address, and the Time
Before booking, message the seller to lock in: the exact address, a pickup window today or tomorrow, and whether the item is on a floor or the curb. A pickup pro can't wait 45 minutes for a seller who's "on the way."
Tell Us the Size
A small chair fits a car; a couch, a dresser, or a dining table needs a van. At $99/hour with the van included, the vehicle is part of the booking — tell us the item and we send the right one.
Inspect Before You Pay
Have the pro inspect the item and send you photos before money changes hands. A vetted third party is the best insurance against a "like new" listing that's actually broken.
Bring the Carry Gear
Sellers rarely have a dolly. Our pro brings a dolly, straps, and blankets so the item leaves the seller's apartment and arrives at yours without damage to either apartment.
Reserve the Elevator at Both Ends
If either building has a freight elevator, reserve it. A couch in a passenger elevator gets stopped — and your pro waits in a lobby.
The 2-Hour Minimum
Van Marketplace pickups start with a 2-hour minimum ($198) to cover the driver, the van, and travel. Most pickups fit comfortably; a longer distance may add time.
