Not every move needs a full crew and a big lorry. Our man-and-van service gives you a capable driver or two, the right size van, and an honest hourly rate. It’s the straightforward way to handle a studio flat, a single heavy item, a marketplace pickup, or a quick move across town.
Takes 60 seconds. No obligation, reply within the hour.
London moves more often than anywhere else in the country. ONS internal migration data shows London consistently records higher residential mobility than any other English region, meaning hundreds of thousands of people face a move every year that is too small for a full removals crew but still needs a proper van and someone strong to help. That’s exactly what our man-and-van service covers.
Book one or two movers charged by the hour, with a van matched to the size of your load. A transit van handles a studio flat or a few large items. A small Luton van is better for a one-bed or a bulkier job. We’ll tell you which is right before you confirm. There’s no charge for blankets, straps or trolleys, and we give you an honest time estimate up front so you know roughly what the total will be.
Our drivers are movers first. They load, wrap, secure and unload every item, carry things up flights of stairs, and take furniture apart and reassemble it if you need it. You’re welcome to pitch in, but you don’t have to lift a thing. Picking up a sofa from Facebook Marketplace and getting it to a third-floor flat in Hackney? That’s the kind of job we do every week.
Plans change. Someone falls through. A completion date shifts by a day. We hold capacity for last-minute work across London, so give us a call and we’ll do our best to get a van to you today. The English Housing Survey puts the private rented sector at around 29% of London households, the highest proportion in England, which means a large share of the city is regularly moving at short notice when tenancies end. We’re set up for exactly that.
The number of movers you need, the size of the van, how long the job takes, and the access at both ends (stairs versus a lift, street parking versus a loading bay) are the main factors. Distance matters less than access on shorter jobs. We’ll talk through the job before you book so the rate is fair and there are no add-ons on the day.
These starting rates give a realistic sense of cost. Every job is quoted individually before you confirm.

Real reviews from real customers across Trustpilot, Google and Facebook.
“Genuinely the easiest move we’ve ever had. The crew arrived early, wrapped everything and not a single scratch on our furniture. Worth every penny.”
“Booked at short notice after another firm let us down. They turned up the next morning, calm and professional, and had us moved by lunch. Lifesavers.”
“We moved 40 desks over a weekend with zero downtime on Monday. Brilliant planning and a really friendly team. Highly recommend for business moves.”
