How much does a man and a van in Southampton cost?

The cost depends on a few things: how much you're moving, the size of van you need, how many helpers you'd like, the distance involved and how easy access is at both ends. Smaller man and van jobs are usually charged by the hour, while larger house removals are quoted as a complete price. Because every move is different, the best thing to do is give us a quick description of what you need — we'll come back with a clear, no-obligation quote so you know exactly where you stand before you book.

Which areas of Southampton and Hampshire do you cover?

We cover every Southampton postcode — from SO14 in the city centre out to Portswood, Shirley, Bitterne, Woolston, Bassett, Highfield, Ocean Village and beyond — as well as the wider Hampshire area, including Eastleigh, Totton, Hedge End, Romsey and Winchester. We also handle long-distance moves further afield across the UK.

Can you help with last-minute or emergency removals?

Yes. We keep some flexibility in our diary specifically for short-notice and emergency moves, whether it's a tenancy that's changed at the last minute, a sale that's completed sooner than expected or a clearance that simply can't wait. Get in touch as early as you can and, where we have a van and crew free, we'll do everything we can to fit you in — often on the same day.

Do you provide packing materials and a packing service?

We do. If you'd rather not spend your evenings wrapping crockery, our team can take care of the packing for you using proper boxes, wrap and protective materials. We can pack the whole property or just the tricky, fragile bits — whichever suits your budget and timescale.

How many people come with the van?

That's entirely up to you and the job in hand. For smaller loads, one experienced mover and a van is often plenty. For full house or office removals — or anywhere with stairs, heavy furniture or a tight schedule — a two-person crew makes the day much quicker and smoother.

Will you dismantle and reassemble furniture?

Yes. Beds, wardrobes, flat-pack units and other bulky items that won't fit through doorways can be carefully dismantled before the move and reassembled at your new property, so everything is ready to use when you arrive.

Portswood, Southampton

Brilliant from start to finish. They turned up on time, wrapped everything carefully and had us moved across Portswood in a morning. Friendly lads and a fair price, couldn't ask for more.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really helpful and friendly guys. Went out of their way on a hot day to make sure everything we needed moved got done. Also good that they will quote for 2 hours rather the minimum 3 or 4 that others do.

They moved all of our things in one go and were very quick. Everything was packed into the van with care and they were very respectful. Very reasonable price as well, if I ever move again I will use them again without question.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I used this to move within Southampton, and then out of Southampton a few years later, and both times it was a very positive experience. From first message to the last box leaving the truck, I was assured about the move, fragile items were carefully put in blankets, and the movers on the day were so pleasant! Really helped to make my day less stressful!

I would strongly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a reliable moving experience!
