Man and Van Services in Soham
Choose moving help for your Soham job, from a few boxes to a complete flat or house inventory. Packing and suitable furniture preparation can be quoted in advance.
House & Flat Moves
Moving a flat, a family home or selected household items in Soham? Include every room, appliances and stored belongings in your inventory. We assess the complete load and both properties before suggesting the van and crew.
Single Item & Furniture
Collect a sofa, bed, wardrobe, appliance or other bulky item from a shop or private seller. Share dimensions, collection times and access at both ends, so we can plan a Soham furniture delivery without last-minute surprises.
Office & Small Business
Move desks, equipment, documents, shelving or boxed stock between Soham premises and nearby areas. Identify the goods entrance and building contact, and agree any loading slot or out-of-hours access before the booking.
Student & Room Moves
A room move can combine boxes, luggage, a desk and smaller furniture. Tell us about shared entrances, stairs and your key handover. We can quote for journeys between home, rented accommodation and storage when dates do not line up.
Storage Moves
Taking household belongings into storage, or collecting them for a new home? Provide the facility address, unit location, opening or access hours and lift details. Separate the items for each destination if storage is one stop on a larger move.
Long-Distance Removals
Moving from Soham to another UK town or city? We arrange UK journeys around your inventory and destination. Your quote sets out the van, crew, working time, chargeable mileage and any relevant route costs before you decide.
Packing and Furniture Help
For a Soham house or flat move, packing ahead and preparing larger furniture can make loading smoother. Ask about help with selected rooms, fragile items, beds or wardrobes, and send photographs so the work can be included in the quote.

Man and Van Soham Prices
| Service | Ground/Lift | Stairs |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Man + LWB Van | £60/h | £70/h |
| 1 Man + Luton Van | £70/h | £80/h |
| 2 Men + LWB Van | £90/h | £100/h |
| 2 Men + Luton Van | £100/h | £110/h |
Minimum: 2 hours. After the first 2 hours, additional time is charged in 30-minute blocks, at the additional-time rate confirmed in your quote. For example, with one mover and an LWB van at £60/h, an extra 30 minutes costs £30. Longer routes are charged at the hourly rate plus approximately £1 per mile. Parking, waiting and applicable city charges can be separate.
What Affects the Price in Soham?
What You're Moving
List the actual furniture and cartons, including garage, shed and garden contents. A small town-centre flat and a furnished family house can need different capacity and working time.
How Many Movers
Choose lifting help for the heaviest items and the carrying route. Two movers may be more practical for a wardrobe, washing machine or upstairs move without customer lifting assistance.
Parking and Access
Driveways, apartment entrances, stairs and longer walks from the van affect the job. Confirm a lawful loading position and any lift booking before moving day.
Distance and Extra Stops
Include every collection, storage and delivery postcode. Working time, agreed mileage and any applicable London or other route charges form part of the quotation.
Soham Moving Price Examples
See how the hourly rates translate into a moving cost. Each example uses an assumed duration for loading, travel and unloading. Your quote is based on your actual items, route and access.
Examples assume packed items, clear loading access and ground-floor or usable lift access, unless stairs are stated.
| Example Move | Van & Movers | Time × Hourly Rate | Time Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small furniture collectionA few manageable items collected locally in Soham | 1 mover + LWB van | 2 hours × £60/h | £120 |
| Student room movePacked boxes, bags and a bike between addresses in Soham | 1 mover + LWB van | 3 hours × £60/h | £180 |
| Larger room or storage loadLight furniture and boxes needing more van space | 1 mover + Luton van | 3 hours × £70/h | £210 |
| One-bedroom flat exampleFurniture and packed boxes, with lift access in Soham | 2 movers + LWB van | 3 hours × £90/h | £270 |
| Upstairs flat exampleA similar load with stairs at one or both addresses | 2 movers + LWB van | 3 hours × £100/h (stairs rate) | £300 |
| Two-bedroom home exampleHousehold furniture and packed boxes in Soham | 2 movers + Luton van | 4 hours × £100/h | £400 |
| Larger household loadMore furniture and boxes, with six working hours assumed | 2 movers + Luton van | 6 hours × £100/h | £600 |
These are illustrative time charges, not fixed prices for an entire room, flat or house. Mileage, parking, applicable city charges and agreed extra work are additional where relevant. A larger load, extra trip, long carry or delayed keys can increase the time. Confirm the estimated duration and additional-time billing in your quote.
How the Two-Hour Minimum Works
If a ground-floor collection with one mover and an LWB van takes one hour, the minimum time charge is still 2 × £60 = £120. After the first two hours, you pay for additional time in 30-minute blocks. At £60/h, each extra block costs £30, so a 2.5-hour move costs £120 + £30 = £150, before applicable extras.
How Stairs Change the Price
Two movers with an LWB van cost £90/h for ground-floor or lift access and £100/h for stairs. For the same three-hour example, that is £270 with lift access or £300 with stairs. Difficult access may also add working time.
A Longer-Journey Calculation
Assume five total working hours with two movers and a Luton van: 5 × £100 = £500. If the quote includes 80 chargeable miles at £1/mile, add £80: £580 before other extras. The route, chargeable mileage and mileage rate must be confirmed in your quote.
Choose Your Van and Moving Team
Tell us what you're moving and how it will leave and enter each property. We match the vehicle to the inventory rather than assuming every Soham flat or house needs the same van.
Small Van • approx. 6 m³
For boxes, luggage, a student room or a compact collection, subject to the dimensions and weight of the items.
LWB Van • approx. 13 m³
Useful for many local flat moves, room changes and medium furniture loads. Check the whole inventory, including appliances and packed cartons.
Luton Van • approx. 16 m³
More space for bulky furniture and larger household loads. A full home may need extra trips or another vehicle; we agree capacity after reviewing your list.
Vehicle measurements are approximate and can vary by Service Provider.
When One Mover Makes Sense
A room move or a few manageable items may only need one mover. If you intend to help, agree this when booking and tell us about any item that cannot be carried safely by one person.
When to Book Two Movers
Choose two movers for heavy furniture, awkward stairs or when you want the team to handle the lifting. A second mover improves handling options but does not increase the van's capacity.

Local Neighbourhoods
Nearby Areas and Towns
Moving Around Soham: Streets, Homes and Access
Tell us about the property as well as the postcode. The street approach, doorway and route for larger furniture help us choose the van and crew.
High Street and Churchgate Street
For a flat or collection near High Street and Churchgate Street, identify the residential or goods doorway. Include stairs above premises, rear access and a lawful loading point; the main frontage may not be the usable entrance.
Hall Street Homes
For a Hall Street address, send photographs of the entrance, hallway and larger furniture. Explain side passages, garden access and any long carry so the team can assess the lifting work as well as the load volume.
Station Road and Station Area
For a home near Soham station or Station Road, give the full property number and entrance. Confirm floors, lift or stairs and the proposed loading position rather than using the station as the complete access plan.
Clay Street and Parking
For an address around Clay Street, distinguish the property's loading arrangement from nearby public parking. Read current signs, check the responsible authority and arrange any private entrance or bay directly with the owner or manager.
Pratt Street and Furniture Access
For a move around Pratt Street, measure sofas, beds and wardrobes against doors and stair turns. Request suitable dismantling in advance and include outbuilding items or appliances in the inventory where they are being taken.
The Shade and A142 Approaches
For a property around The Shade, provide the actual entrance and any known approach restriction. The A142 serves wider connections, but the van's final approach and loading position need to be assessed for your specific address.
Fordham and Surrounding Villages
For a move towards Fordham, Wicken or another nearby village, supply each full postcode and describe private lanes, gates and turning space. Confirm extra collections and storage hours before the route and loading order are agreed.
Ely, Newmarket and UK Journeys
The A142 links wider journeys towards Ely and Newmarket, with the route chosen around your collection and delivery points. We quote for the complete moving work, agreed mileage and relevant costs rather than driving time alone.
Parking for your Soham move. Read local parking guidance and check with East Cambridgeshire District Council for its car parks, or Cambridgeshire County Council for on-street matters. Ask about permission for the exact date and location. Arrange private bays and service-lift slots with the property manager.
