The scene includes several other household items such as a small beige cabinet with white doors, a dark upholstered armchair, and a cardboard box, all positioned on the tarmac driveway. To the left, there are a few loose items, including a small mirror with a blue frame and what appears to be plastic wrapping or packing material. The background shows the pavement leading away from the van, indicating an indoor or driveway environment typical of house removals in London or nearby areas. The natural lighting suggests daytime, with the focus on the careful loading of furniture and belongings in preparation for a move, consistent with professional house removal services provided by Man with Van in London. To make this commitment practical we have embedded specific policies and controls into our day-to-day operations. Our

Zero-Tolerance Policy

is explicit: any instance or credible report of slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour will be treated as a serious breach. Staff found to be complicit face disciplinary action, up to and including termination, and we will terminate relationships with suppliers who do not correct verified issues.

We perform regular supplier due diligence and risk assessments tailored to the logistics and transport sector. Our supplier screening includes checks for labour law compliance, documentation of employment terms, and verification of workers??? ability to enact rights without retaliation. Suppliers are required to sign our supplier code of conduct which explicitly references our anti-slavery expectations for any man with van subcontractor engaged on collection, delivery or removal jobs.

In a residential interior, a man and a woman are engaged in a moment of planning or discussion during a house removal in London, as indicated by the context. The man, dressed in a light grey t-shirt and blue jeans, is sitting on the floor with his right elbow resting on a large cardboard box, his hand touching his forehead in a gesture suggesting thought or concern. Next to him, the woman, wearing a bright pink long-sleeved top and dark jeans, is seated on the floor leaning on a larger cardboard box, with her head slightly tilted and her arm resting on her knee. The scene features various cardboard boxes of different sizes, some sealed with packing tape, arranged around them, indicating they are in the process of packing or unpacking. The environment appears to be a clean, modern house with light-colored walls and a staircase in the background. The lighting is bright and natural, contributing to a neutral and professional atmosphere typical of house removals in London, where thorough preparation and careful handling of household items are key. Supplier audits are conducted on a risk-based schedule. High-risk relationships are audited annually and may include onsite inspections, document reviews and worker interviews. Audit findings generate corrective action plans and follow-up reviews. Where necessary, we reserve the right to suspend or end contracts with suppliers that fail to remedy identified non-compliances within agreed timeframes.

Our programme includes staff training, awareness campaigns and written resources so drivers and office staff can identify signs of exploitation. We use

clear reporting channels

to ensure concerns are raised promptly and handled appropriately. These channels are accessible to employees, temporary staff and third parties and allow for confidential and anonymous reporting where needed.

Image representing anonymous reporting and whistleblowing mechanism Reporting channels for suspected modern slavery include internal reporting to managers, escalation to our compliance lead, and the availability of independent whistleblowing mechanisms. We encourage early reporting and guarantee protection from retaliation for those who raise concerns in good faith. All reports are documented, investigated and, where appropriate, referred to relevant authorities.

A man and a woman are inside a bright, empty room with cream-colored walls and a large bay window showing a blue sky with some clouds. The woman, with blonde hair, is holding an open cardboard box at waist level, preparing to load or unload it, and is dressed in casual clothing. The man, with a shaved head, is standing nearby, holding a closed cardboard box in one hand and slightly bent forward, as if about to place it on the floor or lift it. Several other cardboard boxes of various sizes are positioned on the light wooden floor, some stacked and some placed individually. The scene suggests a house relocation or moving process, typical of local removals services such as those provided by Man with Van in London, in a residential property that could be in London or the surrounding area. There is minimal furniture, emphasizing the focus on packing and moving household items, with the clean and uncluttered environment indicating the early stages of a move or vacant property preparation. Monitoring and performance indicators are used to evaluate the effectiveness of our anti-slavery measures. Key indicators include the number of supplier audits completed, incidents reported and corrective actions implemented. We maintain records of contract clauses, recruitment checks and right-to-work verification to demonstrate compliance and to support ongoing oversight of our man with a van operations.

We are committed to an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and our related policies. Each year we assess risks, review audit outcomes, update training materials and revise supplier engagement practices. The review includes a cross-functional evaluation to ensure that our man with van business model and the wider supply chain reflect evolving legal requirements and best practice. Our objective is to ensure that exploitation has no place in our organisation or among our partners.
