Man and Van Wigston
Moving home or just need help with a bulky purchase? Our man and van service in Wigston brings the van and lifting support together.
We help load, transport and unload furniture, boxes and household belongings, with a suitable vehicle and crew chosen for your move. Ask about packing or preparing larger pieces if you would like extra help. From a room change to a family-home move, we will explain what is included before you confirm.
Man and Van Services in Wigston
Wigston moving services for households, rooms, furniture purchases and storage, with suitable business contents also available to assess. Packing and furniture preparation can be arranged as part of the quote.
House & Flat Moves
Moving a flat, a family home or selected household items in Wigston? Include every room, appliance and stored item being taken. We assess the complete load and 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 Wigston furniture delivery without last-minute surprises.
Office & Small Business
Move desks, equipment, documents, shelving or boxed stock between Wigston 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 Wigston 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 Wigston 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 Wigston 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 Wigston?
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.
Wigston 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 Wigston | 1 mover + LWB van | 2 hours × £60/h | £120 |
| Student room movePacked boxes, bags and a bike between addresses in Wigston | 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 Wigston | 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 Wigston | 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 Wigston 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.

Moving Around Wigston: Homes, Streets and Practical Details
A useful moving plan connects the belongings, collection point and new address. These local details help us assess the vehicle, lifting help and working time.
Bell Street & Town-Centre Collections
For a shop purchase or home near Bell Street, confirm the goods or residential doorway and pickup time. A customer-parking space is not automatically a loading arrangement for the moving van.
Leicester Road & Bull Head Street
These roads form part of the A5199 corridor through Wigston. Give the precise property entrance and suitable loading point, including any side access or steps to an upstairs flat.
Long Street Homes
For a move near Long Street, list heavier furniture and where it is located in the home. Send hallway and landing photos if larger pieces may need preparation.
Aylestone Lane Properties
Describe shared drives, gates and the carry from the intended loading position. Include garage or outside-storage items in the inventory so van capacity reflects the complete load.
Little Hill Household Moves
For a family move around Little Hill, include every room being moved and any appliances. Confirm furniture readiness and key times rather than relying only on the property's bedroom count.
South Wigston Addresses
Give the full South Wigston address and entrance instructions; it is a separate collection point from Wigston town centre. Include stair flights, private bays and any seller or storage access window.
Junction Road & Paddock Street Parking
Check the current council car-park rules, vehicle limits and carrying distance before using a public space. Parking nearby does not reserve a loading position directly at your property.
Leicestershire & UK Journeys
We can assess a nearby move or a journey to another UK town. Send the destination access and full inventory, including extra stops, so lifting time and travel are quoted together.
Parking for Your Wigston Move
See Oadby and Wigston council car parks for off-street rules. Check Leicestershire County Council for on-street restrictions and any permission required. Arrange private bays or service-lift slots separately and send the agreed loading position and carry.

Wigston Moving Questions
What should I budget for moving in Wigston?
One mover with an LWB van starts at £60/h. A two-hour minimum applies, followed by 30-minute billing blocks. The quotation sets out the selected vehicle, crew, estimated work and any stairs, mileage or other applicable charges.
Can you collect furniture near Bell Street?
Yes, subject to access and availability. Ask the seller for the actual goods entrance, pickup window and loading instructions, and send the item dimensions.
Do you cover South Wigston as well?
We can quote moves involving South Wigston and the wider LE18 area. Send the exact addresses and access details so the collection point and load are clear.
Can I use Junction Road car park for loading?
Check the operator's current vehicle rules and the practical carry first. A public parking space does not guarantee suitable loading at the property or reserve space for the van.
Can you move an upstairs flat on Leicester Road?
We can assess it from the floor, stair layout, entrance and furniture dimensions. Include the lawful loading position and any narrow turns or longer carry.
Can I request help preparing boxes and furniture?
Packing assistance, materials and suitable furniture tasks can be assessed as quoted work. Explain what is ready and what needs help, including delicate pieces, so equipment and working time can be planned in advance.
Can two movers handle the lifting for me?
One mover may suit manageable boxes and lighter furniture; bulky pieces, stairs or a fuller move may need two. Send dimensions and access photos, and tell us if you need the team to handle the lifting without your help.
Are short-notice collections possible?
Share your preferred date and pickup window. Evening, weekend and urgent options depend on the available crew, vehicle and access arrangements; a slot is only secured once confirmed.
Could extra furniture change the van needed?
Tell us about additions as soon as possible. Extra belongings can affect capacity, time or the number of trips, so we should reassess the planned setup before assuming everything can be added.
What details will I receive before the move?
The written confirmation names your Service Provider and sets out the agreed vehicle, movers, addresses, schedule and pricing terms. Ask about insurance limits, excesses and exclusions before confirming.
