Man and Van Bristol

Not every move needs a full removal crew. Man and van services offer a practical, cost-effective option for smaller jobs where you need professional help without the full removal package.

What is a Man and Van Service?

Man and van combines a professional driver with a suitable vehicle for moving your items. Unlike full removal services, you typically help with loading and might do your own packing. It's the middle ground between hiring a van yourself and booking a complete removal team. You get experience and proper equipment at a fraction of the cost.

Ideal For

• Small moves: Studio flats, single rooms, or moving a few pieces of furniture
• Single items: Bought a sofa online? Need a wardrobe delivered? Man and van handles one-off items
• Student moves: End of term clear-outs or moving into new digs
• eBay and marketplace collections: Collecting purchases that won't fit in your car
• Office furniture: Moving desks, chairs, or equipment between locations

What's Included

A standard man and van service includes the driver's time, fuel costs, and use of the vehicle. Most operators carry basic moving equipment like trolleys, straps, and blankets. Goods-in-transit insurance protects your items during the move. Some services offer additional helpers at extra cost if you need more hands for heavier items.

Pricing Structure

Man and van services typically charge by the hour, with a minimum booking period (usually two hours). Rates vary based on van size and the number of helpers. Some operators offer fixed prices for specific routes or job types. Getting a few quotes helps you compare options and find the best value for your particular move.
