The University year is coming to an end - although it feels like only yesterday it was just beginning.

This is always a dreaded time for us students, as once again it means undertaking the military operation of transporting everything back home – exams can be less stressful!

For some this often means several trips – a considerable loss of precious holiday time which could be spent in bed, on the beach or enjoying the first night out since March. Many also require the use of a large car or van to ferry some of the larger items, and unless you have the luxury of owning one, they can be very expensive to hire.

As you finish unpacking the last box, you may sit down and sigh in relief, but before you know it, those 4 months of stress-free bliss will have passed and the time will have come around to do it all over again.

However there is a cheap and easy solution, and it’s called ANYVAN.com. ANYVAN is a free to use ‘delivery auction’ site, where you can save hundreds of pounds transporting your stuff. Just post a listing of what it is, where it’s going and when it needs to be moved, and you’ll get great quotes from UK couriers who are already going there and have space in their vans. It’s cheap, simple and helps the environment by reducing the amount of CO2 emissions.

It has a tidy design and is very straightforward to use - and there’s post delivery feedback! You can even use it for eBay selling and better yet, your laundry, as one savvy student from Leeds University decided to. He managed to get 10 loads of laundry shipped to his mum back home in Guildford, Surrey, for less than he would of paid at the laundrette.

Sound like something you need? Then what are you waiting for? Check out ANYVAN.COM, get posting and watch the bids come in.
