Man and Van in Bishopthorpe

Parts of Bishopthorpe are narrow village lanes with older cottages, where a large van wants a planned approach and the stairs inside can run tight and steep. We size the van to the street and bring the hands for the carry, protecting doorways and floors in the older homes as we go.

The village sits close to both the river and the racecourse, and either can shape a move. Low spots near the Ouse warrant a look at the flood alerts after heavy rain, and race days add traffic on the roads towards town. We plan the timing around whichever applies on your day.
