Man and Van Southwark
Moving a flat, small office or a few bulky items? Our man and van service in Southwark provides the vehicle and practical lifting help, with loading, transport and unloading assessed as one job.

Evening and weekend options are available by arrangement. Your quote explains the vehicle, moving help and costs before you confirm.
Man and Van Services in Southwark
Choose moving help for your Southwark 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 house or selected household items in Southwark? List every room, appliance and stored item being taken. We assess the inventory and access at both properties before suggesting a 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 Southwark furniture delivery without last-minute surprises.
Office & Small Business
Move desks, equipment, documents, shelving or boxed stock between Southwark 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 Southwark 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 Southwark 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.
See our packing service and furniture dismantling and assembly options for more details.
Man and Van Southwark 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 Southwark?
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.
Southwark 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 Southwark | 1 mover + LWB van | 2 hours × £60/h | £120 |
| Student room movePacked boxes, bags and a bike between addresses in Southwark | 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 Southwark | 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 Southwark | 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 Southwark 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.

Nearby Areas and Towns
Moving Around Southwark: Streets, Homes and Access
The loading position, entrance and furniture route matter as much as the postcode. These local checks help us plan a workable move.
Blackfriars Road — A201
For an A201 Blackfriars Road address, identify the residential or goods entrance and current loading restrictions. The frontage may not be the usable entrance; confirm the actual approach, carrying distance and any private bay.
Union Street and Converted Premises
For a flat, studio or office on Union Street, send floor, lift and stair details. Describe shared access or a rear court and identify fragile equipment or furniture that needs preparation.
The Cut and Station Area
For a collection around The Cut or Southwark station, agree the precise doorway and pickup window. Include stairs above premises and avoid relying on the station landmark or a pedestrian entrance as the van-access plan.
Borough High Street — A3
For a Borough High Street collection, check the lawful loading position and goods entrance with the occupier. Include current road restrictions, basement access and any service-lift requirements before fixing the arrival window.
Great Suffolk Street Buildings
For a managed block on Great Suffolk Street, ask about loading reservations, vehicle clearance, lift protection and contractor entry. Share the confirmed slot and management contact separately from any street-parking permission.
Southwark Bridge Road
For a move near Southwark Bridge Road, give the usable entrance, floor and furniture dimensions. Explain long corridors, secured doors and any carrying route from a side street so the crew can assess handling.
Elephant and Bermondsey Stops
For an additional stop towards Elephant and Castle or Bermondsey, provide each full address, contact and inventory. Confirm keys and unloading independently, and label items if storage or a seller collection is part of the route.
SE1 and Wider UK Journeys
Routes via the A201, A3 or wider road network depend on the actual stops and vehicle. Your quote assesses moving time with the journey, chargeable mileage and applicable London or destination costs.
Parking for your Southwark move. Read local parking guidance and check with Southwark Council; check TfL for relevant red-route sections. Ask about any permission needed for the date and location. Arrange private bays and service-lift slots separately with management.

Southwark Moving Questions
How much is moving help in Southwark?
For one mover with an LWB van, rates start at £60/h and the minimum is two hours. Van size, crew, stairs and access affect the quote. Extra time is billed in 30-minute blocks; mileage, parking and agreed extras are confirmed in writing.
What do I need for a managed Southwark apartment move?
Give the entrance, floor, lift dimensions, management contact and loading-bay clearance. Arrange the permitted moving slot and share entry instructions before collection is confirmed.
Can you collect from premises around The Cut?
We can assess a collection with the goods or residential doorway, item dimensions and pickup window. Explain any stairs or rear access and include delivery details.
Can the van stop directly outside on Blackfriars Road?
That depends on the precise location and current signs. Check the responsible road authority and a lawful loading point, and arrange private building access separately.
Can a Southwark office move include a storage stop?
Yes, with all addresses, access hours and inventories supplied in advance. Pack and label equipment and files, and confirm the storage unit floor and goods lift so loading order and time can be planned.
Who arranges loading space for a Southwark move?
Check the responsible authority and current signs for the exact address before relying on a loading place. Ask about any required permission or suspension, and arrange private bays, service lifts and entry slots directly with building management.
Should I choose one or two movers for my Southwark job?
The load and carrying route decide the crew. Send item dimensions, floor, stairs and carrying distance, and say whether customer lifting help is available. Heavy or bulky pieces can need two movers even for a smaller job.
Can I add packing or storage to a Southwark booking?
Packing and suitable dismantling or reassembly can be quoted in advance. For storage, give the facility address, unit floor, lift and opening hours, with items labelled by destination.
Can I request a weekend Southwark collection?
We take enquiries 7 days a week. Evening, weekend and short-notice jobs depend on the available van, crew and route. Send the complete details and wait for the collection window to be confirmed.
How do you quote a longer journey from Southwark?
We assess the complete inventory, every stop and both properties. The quote confirms the van, crew, agreed working time, chargeable mileage and relevant route costs. Your booking identifies the Service Provider; ask about cover limits, exclusions and any excess before the day.
