Gumtree Delivery Service
We have for a long time been receiving enquiries on whether we collect and deliver items that are on gumtree.com. People ask "do you only move items sold on eBay" and the truth is we welcome Gumtree users to the Lots2 service.
We seem to be getting more and more Gumtree related enquiries and we think this is down to the migration from eBay to Gumtree. We know a lot of experienced eBay sellers who will only sell items they can post on eBay and larger collection only items on Gumtree.
Gumtree has its advantages; no waiting for the auction to end, its free, no messing around with online payments, it feels more local (which some people like) and you can haggle with the buyer or arrange a quick sale - something that is frowned upon on eBay.
Gumtree at the moment feels more like eBay did a long time ago, easy to use, lots of advantages for both buyers and sellers and perhaps it has that ’new community spirit’ that eBay had all that time ago.
All you savvy Lots2 users will know that you can spot a bargain on Gumtree Brighton or Gumtree Canterbury and get Lots2 to collect and deliver it for you!
We will be updating the site shortly but you can apply for a quote for delivery of a Gumtree item just as easily as you would for an eBay item - simply include the Gumtree Posting Ref so we can view the item and send us your postcode.
If the deal is done and the seller has removed the listing from Gumtree then please send us as much detailed info about the item as possible to ensure you receive the best value delivery quote.

Same Day eBay Delivery
Lots2 introduce a dedicated Express van for urgent and weekend eBay collections and deliveries.
We have improved our service further by now offering a dedicated van for same day Express deliveries throughout London and the southeast.
Our Express service prices start from just £50 within the M25 and have the option of a Porter if required, so you can sit back and let Lots2 do all the work!
And don’t think the van is small and only big enough for a single dining chair, its got plenty of room ready to cope with three piece suites and large wardrobes, in fact it could probably furnish a 3 bed semi.
So if you are looking for a professional, careful and affordable same day eBay or furniture delivery then look no further - you’ve found Lots2!

Punctuality matters
At Lots2, we take punctuality and meeting the appointments we make with clients very seriously. That is why we now publish our success rate on our homepage.
You will notice two figures, the first is for that month and the second is for the year overall. We began this initiative in April 2008 so for April the two figures will be the same. From now on the figures will be updated on a daily basis and although this is self regulated the stats are much like our prices - honest and for all to see on our website!
Couriers generally have a bad reputation and we would like to think that we are changing the perception of couriers, at least with our clients. This may be why we have so much repeat custom.

The new look Lots2 website
Welcome to the new look Lots2 website.
We have been busy updating our website to make it more user friendly and generally make the Lots2 web experience more pleasurable.

This will allow clients to login and see the live status of their collection and delivery along with all the specifics that particular job.
We hope you like the new Lots2 website.

Lots2 love London
We are pleased to announce that we have lowered our Express fee within the M25.
We have achieved this due to how popular this service is within London and rather than be greedy we thought it fair to pass these savings on to our clients.
This means that we can now arrange a guaranteed same day Driver Only collection and delivery within the M25 for only £50.
Not only is this excellent value for money for buyers, it also means sellers can offer a 1st class delivery option across the Capital and items arrive the very same day!
The parking is dreadful, the jams are a headache but Lots2 love London!
