Our affordable Man and Van moving service provides a simple, fully flexible moving solution where you simply pay to load, transport, and unload by the hour.
This option typically includes one or two skilled moving professionals, making it an ideal choice for relocating a sofa, completing a student move, or transporting a 1 to 2 bedroom flat across London. This means that you fully control your moving costs by choosing the number of men, the vehicle size, and the number of hours.
Most importantly, you have the flexibility to extend the time on the day if your move takes slightly longer than expected.
(If you are moving a large 3+ bedroom family home and require a fixed-price quote and full packing, please visit our House Removals page).

Not every move requires a massive lorry or a whole day to complete, so why should you have to pay more? That's why we offer a fully flexible, Pay As You Go hourly Man with Van service.

Our Man and Van service in London offers flexibility that caters to your immediate moving needs with a quick, paperless booking process:
Navigating London's busy roads is no easy task. Moving a flat presents many challenges such as narrow terraced streets, width restrictions, the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ), and strict council parking rules. Having moved thousands of renters and homeowners across London over the last decade, our drivers know exactly how to navigate these restrictions to provide a timely, cost-saving move!
Hiring a Man and Van service in London is the best way to keep your moving costs down. To make the most of this hourly service, it's important to prepare effectively. Here are four tips to help you streamline your move:
Before the clock starts on moving day, ensure all loose items are packed into taped boxes or secure bags. Faster loading and unloading means fewer hours charged, saving you money directly.
Moving is the perfect time to declutter. Decide what to keep, donate, or sell. Reducing the volume of items means a smaller van and less loading time.
Save costs by sourcing recycled boxes from local London businesses. This saves you money on materials and is great for the environment.

Man and van services in London generally handle small-scale moves, such as student relocations, 1-to-2 bedroom flats, single-item furniture transportation, and small office moves. They provide the transport and the heavy lifting, charged by the hour.
Pricing is strictly based on the time taken to complete your move (pay-by-the-hour), combined with the size of the van and the number of moving professionals you request.
If you choose a "1 Man and Van" service, you will need to assist the driver with large or heavy items like a sofa. If you choose our "2 Men and a Van" option, our team will handle 100% of the lifting for you.
No. You only pay for the time taken to complete your move. If the move takes longer than your initial booking, you simply continue to pay the standard hourly rate.
