Dorset man and van, coast and countryside
Dorset’s moves range from Bournemouth and Poole flats and student moves to cottages in the Blackmore Vale and retirement moves along the Jurassic Coast. We are booked for a single item, a flat or a whole house, and many jobs mean a longer trip. Tell us the addresses, pick a van and time, and see the price.
Roads in the west of the county are winding, and summer traffic is heavy around the beaches and Poole. We plan timing with you. Our insured movers bring blankets, straps and tools. We also arrange house removals, furniture delivery and clearances. Choose your nearest town below to see local details.

What our man with a van customers say
My mover was awesome! I’m pretty sure he could lift a bus with zero problems. The van was large and spacious, and everything was moved in record time!
Very friendly staff. On time for collection. Kept me informed at each stage of our transaction. Brilliant
Driver turned up promptly and gave great advice about loading and tied everything down inside the van. Was a very efficient service and was much less stressful than trying to do it all with just a van by ourselves. Would highly recommend.

What our Dorset crews plan for
Useful tips for a Dorset move, based on our 9 jobs in the county.
Expect stairs
About 33 in 100 of our Dorset jobs have stairs at one end. Flats in Bournemouth and Poole are common examples, so check whether there’s a lift and tell us the floor.
Think about the day
Across the UK, a quarter of our jobs (25%) fall on a Saturday, while Tuesday takes just 10%. These are national figures. A midweek Dorset move also misses the heaviest weekend coast traffic.
Coastal parking
Bournemouth and Poole have busy seafront roads and pay and display parking, especially in summer. Find out if you need a permit, and try to save a space outside.
No motorways in Dorset
Dorset has no motorway, so moves rely on the A31, A35 and A338. These get busy with holiday traffic in summer, so allow extra time for longer trips.
