Canterbury man and van, city and villages
Canterbury is a student city as well as a family one, so our man and van service in Canterbury covers student moves around the University of Kent, flat moves and single-item collections. Choose a van, pick a time and see the price on screen before you confirm.
Inside the walls the streets are narrow and some are restricted, so small vans are often best and we plan each stop. Outside, the A2 and A28 make runs to Whitstable and the Kent coast easy. Our insured movers can also help with house removals, furniture delivery and packing.

What customers near Canterbury say
My mover, Mahmud, was friendly and very efficient in loading and unloading my belongings. He also generously allowed me to ride with him in the van to my new address. The move was complete over an hour sooner than I had expected!
Kaivan and his team were fantastic! They were able to book me in fairly last minute for a long distance house move. They arrived promptly on the day, were very hard working, polite and professional. I would highly recommend them all. Thank you guys
Great and professional.amazing experience. I will surely use it for my next move. Thank you

What our Canterbury crews plan for
What makes the difference on moving day in Canterbury, based on our 16 local jobs.
Stairs in older Canterbury homes
2 of our 16 Canterbury jobs had stairs at one end. Older houses in and around the city centre often have steep, narrow staircases and low doorways, so measure big furniture and tell us the floor.
Best days to book
Across the UK, Saturday is our busiest day (25% of jobs) and Tuesday the quietest (10%). August is the busiest month and January the quietest. Canterbury also has student move-in and move-out peaks, so book early.
Access inside the city walls
Canterbury’s centre has narrow streets, a one-way ring road and a pedestrianised High Street with restricted vehicle access. Give us the exact address and loading point so we can plan the route and timing.
A2, A28 and the park and ride roads
The A2 links Canterbury to Dover and London, and the A28 runs to Thanet. Roads such as the A290 to Whitstable and the routes past the park and ride sites are busy at peak times.
