Man and van across Southampton, Hamble to Portswood

A man and van service in Southampton covers a lot: student moves around the University of Southampton, flats near the docks and waterfront, family homes in Bassett and Bitterne, and furniture collections from shops and sellers. Tell us what you are moving, choose a van and a time, and see your price first.

The M3, M27 and A33 are close, so Hedge End, Hamble and Bassett are all easy runs from the city. Busy centre streets and student terraces can be tight, so tell us about parking and stairs. Our insured movers bring blankets, straps and tools. The same crews do house removals, furniture delivery and clearances across Southampton.

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

Very professional, prompt and patient. I set everything up the afternoon before the move, which was in the morning, and received a fair price.

Moving in Southampton

What our Southampton crews plan for

What makes the difference on moving day in Southampton, based on our 36 local jobs.

Student streets in Portswood

Around the University of Southampton in Portswood and Highfield, terraced streets are packed with parked cars, and moves cluster at the start and end of term. Book early for those weeks and check parking outside the house.

Parking in the centre and Old Town

Near the Bargate, West Quay and Ocean Village, much of the kerb is restricted or pay and display. Ask the building about loading bays, and tell us where the van can stop close to your door.

Stairs and lifts

About 42 in 100 of our 36 Southampton jobs had stairs at one end, a high share. Many flats and Victorian terraces have steep stairs, so tell us floors, lift size and any tight turns.

Best days to book

Across the UK, Saturday is our busiest day (25% of jobs) and Tuesday the quietest (10%). That is a national pattern, not Southampton’s own, but weekdays are usually easier for parking here as well.

M3, M27 and the docks

The M3 and M27 meet near Southampton, and the A33 and Redbridge Causeway feed the city. Cruise-ship days and St Mary’s match days add traffic, so check the calendar when you pick your date.
