Hey everyone! I'm working on creating a booking website for a small house moving business alongside my uncle, who has some experience in this area. I'm in need of a platform that can meet a few specific requirements:
- Customers should be able to submit a booking that isn't auto-confirmed; I want to review them first.
- It should allow the collection of essential details for the move like pickup and drop-off addresses, along with the date.
- Ideally, customers would enter their bank information or pay a small deposit to help cut down on last-minute cancellations.
- I'd love to be able to manually confirm bookings from the backend, or at the very least, I'll give them a call to confirm and approve everything.
I appreciate any recommendations from those of you who have set up similar service-based websites. Thank you!

I think starting with WordPress and adding various plugins for form generation would be a solid approach. You can customize it to get all the features you're looking for.
Hey! I recommend using WordPress with the AmeliaWP premium plugin. It has pretty much everything you need for your website and is user-friendly. Good luck with your business!
You could also go with WordPress but try using HBook. It works great for booking systems and might fit your needs well.
It sounds like a straightforward setup at first glance. You need forms for booking, collecting move details, ensuring bank details entry, and a payment form for deposits. There are easy-to-use solutions, but they often fall short. If you want something more tailored, I could help build this out for you!
