About Man with a Van Services
A man with a van helps with house moves, furniture deliveries, tip runs and clearances - the kind of jobs where you need a bigger vehicle and an extra pair of hands.
A good local operator knows the area, can navigate tight streets and awkward access and saves you the hassle of hiring a van and doing it yourself.
Check whether the price includes loading and unloading, confirm they carry goods-in-transit insurance and ask about any extra charges for stairs or long carries.
About Bixter
Bixter is a small settlement at a crossroads in central-west Mainland Shetland, where the road to Walls and the west side branches off from the main route through the island.
Its position at the junction of routes heading west to Walls, north to Aith and south-east to Lerwick makes it a natural meeting point for the western communities of Mainland.
Bixter has a primary school and a community hall and serves a scattered population of crofters and families living across the surrounding parishes.
The village sits in typical Shetland moorland, with views over small lochs and the open hillside characteristic of the interior of the islands.
About Shetland
Shetland is an archipelago of around 100 islands - 16 of them inhabited - lying roughly 110 miles north of the Scottish mainland and 210 miles west of Norway, making it the most northerly part of the United Kingdom.
Lerwick is the capital and only town of any size, a compact and characterful harbour settlement that serves as the administrative, commercial and cultural centre of the islands. Around 7,000 of Shetland’s 23,000 residents live in and around the town.
Shetland’s economy has been shaped by the sea for centuries: fishing remains a major industry and the arrival of North Sea oil at the Sullom Voe terminal in the 1970s brought prosperity that was carefully managed through a charitable trust that continues to fund services and infrastructure across the islands.
The landscape is treeless, wind-scoured and dramatic - sea cliffs, voes (narrow inlets), tombolo beaches and open moorland define the character of the islands and nowhere in Shetland is more than three miles from the sea.
Shetland has a distinct cultural identity that draws on both Scottish and Norse heritage - the annual Up Helly Aa fire festival, the Shetland dialect and the fiddle music tradition are central to island life and the sense of community across the islands is strong and self-reliant.
