Most second-hand furniture ads are collection only. QikTruck fills the gap with same-day capable pickup from the seller driveway to your door, priced before you book.
If the listing says collection only and the item will not fit your car, book a QikTruck trip instead of cancelling the buy.
Get an exact quote| Situation | Vehicle | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Single chair, small appliance | Mini van or bakkie | Fits most boots-plus loads |
| Couch, fridge, bed | 1 ton bakkie or 1.5 ton closed | Add a helper for stairs |
| Lounge suite or several pieces | 1.5 ton or 4 ton closed | One trip beats two bakkie runs |
Private sellers rarely own a delivery vehicle. They expect cash or EFT and a buyer with a bakkie. That works until you buy a fridge or three-seater.
Share both addresses with QikTruck, agree a time with the seller, and let the driver handle lifting with straps and the right vehicle size.
The seller will not deliver. You must arrange transport from their address to yours.
No. Settle payment with the seller yourself using a safe method, then book transport separately.
Ideally yes, or send someone with authority to release the item. Put the contact number in the booking notes.
Often yes for local trips when drivers are available. Book after the seller confirms the item is ready.
