Our take

When AnyVan founder Angus discovered that 50% of all vehicles on the road were half empty and had plenty of space to carry other items, he started AnyVan to give drivers the opportunity to use their empty space to make money and offer customers cost effective solutions to move their items and reduce the volume of vans on the road.

AnyVan offers delivery solutions for consumers, businesses and retailers, facilitating both on-demand and advanced bookings. Since launch, AnyVan has focussed predominantly on the consumer market utilising technology to shake up the traditional logistics model.

Driver tracking, two-hour collection & delivery time slots and evolving from reverse auction models to instant pricing has helped growth. As the property market boomed in the previous few years with people wanting to move homes and an increased demand for freight and retailers to deliver for their customers, the company has seen consistent growth.
