Is this the right service for your move?

Smaller loads and selected belongings

Man and van removals can suit a limited number of belongings rather than the contents of a fully furnished home. Your enquiry might involve packed boxes, selected furniture or the contents of a room.

The item list matters more than the description “small move”. A single heavy or awkward item may require more planning than several boxes. For a dedicated business delivery or Luton van transport with a driver, see our goods transport services. Include dimensions, weights, loading help and any delivery time window in your enquiry.

Send photographs and approximate dimensions for bulky items so suitability can be assessed.

Larger moves or unwanted items

If you are moving a full household, need substantial packing support or have a complex inventory, our house-removals service may be more appropriate.

If the items are unwanted and need disposal rather than delivery to another address, see our waste and clearance services.

Confirm the loading help you need

When you book a man with a van, make sure the agreed service matches the help required.

Tell us whether you need assistance carrying, loading and unloading the items. Mention heavy furniture, stairs, long carrying distances and anything you cannot safely help move yourself.

Before confirming the booking, establish:

  • The vehicle and whether the agreed load fits.
  • The number of people attending.
  • The loading and unloading assistance included.
  • Whether any dismantling, packing or reassembly is included.
  • The arrangements for fragile or unusually heavy items.
  • Any items outside the accepted scope.

Do not assume that everything will fit in one journey or that extra help can be added on the day.

What affects your man-and-van quote?

A useful quote accounts for the whole job, from collecting the items to unloading them at the destination.

The main details are:

  • What is moving, including quantity, size and weight.
  • The collection and delivery addresses.
  • The loading and unloading help required.
  • Stairs, lifts, narrow entrances and carrying distances at both ends.
  • Parking and a suitable loading position.
  • Any extra stops or agreed preparation work.
  • Your preferred date and access window.

Man and van is charged from £60 per hour, with a minimum booking of 2 hours. For a fixed-price job, check the inventory and access details on which the price is based.

Confirm whether VAT, parking, tolls or other applicable travel charges are included. A headline hourly rate alone does not show the final cost.

How to arrange your move

1. Send the route and item details

Provide both postcodes, your preferred date and a list or photographs of the items. Add the floor levels, lift information and loading arrangements at each address.

2. Agree the service and price

Discuss the loading help, vehicle suitability and any items needing special assessment. Check what the quote includes and tell us about any uncertainty, such as a delivery address or access time that has not yet been confirmed.

3. Confirm the booking arrangements

Make sure you have confirmation of the agreed date, arrival arrangements and service scope before organising the rest of your move around it.

If your item list, route or access changes, tell us before moving day.

Prepare your items and both addresses

Pack loose belongings into manageable boxes and label them clearly. Keep essential documents, medication, valuables and anything you need during the journey with you.

Photograph bulky furniture and measure it where access may be tight. Empty drawers and cupboards where practical, and flag anything fragile or unusually heavy.

Check the collection and delivery arrangements:

  • Can the vehicle load and unload close to the entrance?
  • Are there stairs, narrow turns or a long carrying route?
  • Does a lift need to be booked?
  • Are there building access or loading-time restrictions?
  • Will someone be available at both addresses?

Any appliance disconnection or specialist preparation should be arranged beforehand with a suitably qualified person where necessary.

If you need help preparing your belongings, ask about our separate packing and unpacking services.

Uxbridge and West London enquiries

Magnus Removals is based in Uxbridge. If you need a man and van in West London, send both postcodes so the team can discuss the route and whether the job fits the service.

For a time-sensitive move, call with the items, route and required timing. Availability needs to be checked against the work involved; an enquiry does not reserve a slot.
