Frequently Asked Questions

Quick start

VanX is a platform where you easily book a van or furniture lift with driver. You enter the pickup and delivery address, see the price instantly and book securely online.
VanX is available throughout the Netherlands. There’s always a driver nearby.
Everything within VanX runs automatically. If a ride doesn’t go ahead or the driver doesn’t show up, the amount is automatically refunded to the customer’s account. Our system checks every ride and makes sure payments are handled fairly without you having to do anything.
You pay securely online via iDEAL, credit card or other payment methods available on the platform. Payment is handled entirely through VanX, so both you and the driver have peace of mind.

Anything that fits in a van, such as furniture, white goods or moving boxes. Mention it when booking if it concerns large or heavy items.

Rides

Yes. Cancellations are subject to our cancellation policy (article 7 of the terms and conditions). You can cancel a furniture lift scheduled in advance free of charge up to 1 hour before the start. For an instant ride, cancelling after the driver has accepted is not free of charge; the costs depend on the timing and the costs the driver has already incurred.
Then the full amount is automatically refunded. VanX checks this via the system.
If a customer isn’t ready or isn’t present, the driver marks this in the app. The driver then receives the full fee.

No, the driver does not help with lifting. You need to arrange this yourself.

That depends on how you drive. If you drive with VanX as a freelancer, a KvK (Chamber of Commerce) registration is required. This is clearly indicated and checked during your registration process. As a self-employed professional you are also responsible for your own income, tax return and any insurance. If you drive for a transport or moving company affiliated with VanX, you don’t need your own KvK registration. Private individuals cannot drive as a driver via VanX.

Cancellations are subject to our cancellation policy (article 7 of the terms and conditions). If the customer cancels outside the free cancellation period, cancellation fees of up to the full rate may be charged. If the customer isn’t present or the goods aren’t ready, this counts as a no-show and the full amount remains payable.
