What can your man with a van service move?

Furniture such as sofas, beds, wardrobes and tables, single items, small house and flat moves, student moves between accommodation and home, furniture collections from shops, retailers or private sellers, and small local moves of boxes and household belongings.

Do you move just one item?

Yes. Single-item removals are part of our man with a van service, so you can move one piece of furniture without paying for a full house removal.

A man and van service built around the job you actually have

Not every move needs a full house removal. Sometimes it is one sofa from a private seller, a wardrobe from a shop, or a car boot's worth of boxes that will not fit in a car boot. Sometimes it is a one-bedroom flat, or a student room at the end of term.

Our man with a van service is designed for exactly those jobs. You get a professional, affordable and customer-focused service, sized to what you are moving rather than to a full house. You tell us the items and the two addresses, we price it, and you know where you stand before you book.

What our man with a van service is suitable for

Furniture removals

Sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables and the other large pieces that do not fit in a car and are too awkward to carry down the street. If you are moving a room's worth of furniture rather than a single piece, our furniture removals service explains how bigger furniture jobs are handled.

Single-item removals

One item, one trip, without the cost of a full house removal. A new mattress, a dining table you have sold, a washing machine going to a relative. Single items are a normal booking for us, not an inconvenience.

Small house and flat moves

Flats, apartments and rented accommodation where the volume is modest but the stairs, lifts and parking still need thinking about. If your move grows beyond a small flat, our home removals service covers larger houses.

Student removals

Moving between student accommodation and home at the start or end of term, or from halls into a shared house. Our student removals service has more detail on how term-time moves work.

Furniture collection and delivery

Bought something from a shop, a retailer or a private seller and have no way of getting it home? We collect it and deliver it to your door.

Small local moves

Boxes and household belongings moving a few streets or a few towns away. Short, simple jobs, priced as short, simple jobs.

How it works

01
Get your price online. Our instant online quote system gives you a price in about two minutes. Enter the addresses and what you are moving. There is no waiting around for a traditional quotation.
02
Tell us about access. Stairs, lifts, parking, narrow doorways, a sofa that only just came in. We take time to understand your requirements and the access at both ends before moving day.
03
We plan around the problems. Because we ask first, potential challenges get identified in advance rather than discovered on the day.
04
Moving day. Your belongings are loaded, moved and unloaded at the other address.

Why people choose YourVans

Transparent pricing. You see your price before you book. It comes from what you are moving and where it is going.

Clear communication. You know what is happening and when. If something about the job needs clarifying, we ask.

Planning before the day. We talk through your requirements and the access at both properties before moving day, so any likely difficulty is spotted early.

Cover on every booking. Every booking includes £50,000 of goods-in-transit cover as standard.

A real local base. We work from Jarrow Business Center, Viking Industrial Park, Rolling Mill Road, Jarrow NE32 3DT, so the whole of Tyne and Wear and County Durham is within easy reach.

Areas we cover

Our man with a van service covers South Shields, South Tyneside, Sunderland, Newcastle upon Tyne, Gateshead, North Tyneside, Durham and County Durham. Each area has its own page with local detail on the roads, housing and the jobs we see most there:

Moving somewhere further afield? That can be discussed. Put both addresses into the quote and we will look at it.

Man with a van or a full removal?

If you are moving a few items, a small flat or a student room, a man with a van is usually the right fit. If you are moving a family house with every room full, a full removal will suit you better. Our guide to choosing between a man and van and a removal company goes through the differences in more depth. If you are still unsure, run the quote with your actual items. It will show you the price for what you are really moving.

Getting ready for your man with a van

A few things make the day quicker and easier:

Measure the awkward pieces. Check the big items against doorways and stair turns at the new address.
Empty drawers and wardrobes. Furniture travels better and is easier to carry when it is empty.
Tell us about parking. If the van cannot stop near the door, let us know when you book.
Have collections ready. If we are picking up from a shop or seller, check the item is paid for and ready to go.
Box up loose belongings. Boxes stack safely. Loose items do not.

If you are moving a sofa, our guide on how to move a sofa is worth five minutes before the day.
