Man and a Van Fulham – Local, Professional Moving Service
At Man and Van Fulham, our man and a van service is designed for people who want a reliable, well-organised move without the cost and complexity of a large removals crew.

Who Our Man and a Van Service Is For
Homeowners
Perfect for smaller property moves, downsizing or moving a portion of your belongings into storage. We protect your furniture, floors and walls, treating your home with respect from start to finish.
Renters
Whether you’re changing flat in Fulham or relocating across London, we help you move without upsetting neighbours or your landlord. We’re used to lifts, tight stairwells and restricted access.
Landlords
We support landlords with quick turnarounds between tenancies: moving in furniture packs, removing unwanted items, and shifting bulky pieces to or from storage.
Businesses
Small office moves, micro businesses and shop units benefit from a flexible man and a van set-up. We move desks, chairs, IT, stock and archive boxes with minimal disruption to your trading.
Students
Our student-friendly service is ideal for term-time moves, internships and gap years. We handle boxed belongings, clothes, bikes and a few bits of furniture at sensible, transparent rates.
What We Move – and What We Don’t
Items typically included
- Sofas, beds, wardrobes, chests of drawers and other furniture
- White goods (fridges, freezers, washing machines, tumble dryers)
- Boxes, bags, suitcases and storage containers
- Office desks, chairs, filing cabinets and equipment
- Sports equipment, TVs, small electronics and personal belongings
Items we cannot or may not move
- Hazardous materials (fuel, gas bottles, chemicals, paint thinners)
- Illegal items or anything prohibited by law
- Large commercial machinery or oversized industrial equipment
- Unboxed loose items that cannot be safely handled
- Very high value or irreplaceable items without prior agreement
If you’re unsure about a particular item, just ask when you enquire and we’ll confirm what’s possible and how to prepare it.
Our Step-by-Step Man and a Van Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us with your collection and delivery addresses, a brief list of items, and your preferred date and time. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote, usually based on hourly rates with any minimum charge explained upfront.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a quick video or photo survey. For larger or more complex jobs, we can arrange an onsite visit. This lets us assess access, parking and volume accurately so there are no surprises on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or we can provide a packing service at an agreed cost. We can also supply quality boxes, tape and packing materials. We advise on dismantling furniture, securing appliances and labelling boxes so unloading is straightforward.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our trained team arrives at the agreed time. We use blankets, straps and covers to protect your belongings and the property. Items are loaded carefully, secured for transport and moved directly to your new address using efficient routes.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination we unload everything into the rooms you request, not just to the front door. We’ll reassemble any furniture we dismantled by prior agreement and check you’re happy before we leave.
Transparent Man and a Van Pricing
Our pricing is simple and transparent. Most man and a van jobs are charged on an hourly basis with a minimum booking period. Larger or long-distance moves may be priced as a fixed quote.
- Clear hourly rates, confirmed in writing before you book
- Options for one, two or more porters depending on the job
- Honest guidance on how long your move is likely to take
- No hidden extras for stairs or standard waiting time, unless agreed in advance
Parking costs, congestion and tolls are either included in the quote or clearly itemised so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Why Choose a Professional Service Over DIY
Hiring a casual van or doing it yourself may look cheaper, but it often ends up costing more in time, damage and stress. With Man and Van Fulham you get:
- Fully insured transport for your goods
- Professional handling techniques to reduce the risk of damage
- Trained staff used to stairs, tight corners and heavy lifting
- Proper protective equipment and well-maintained vehicles
- Reliable timings and structured planning, not guesswork
In short, you protect both your belongings and your back, while saving time and hassle.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We take our responsibilities seriously and work to recognised industry standards.
- Goods in transit insurance covering your belongings while they are in our care
- Public liability cover for work in and around your property
- Trained moving teams with ongoing practical training and supervision
- Documented procedures for loading, securing and transporting items
Details of cover levels are available on request, and we are happy to discuss any specific concerns about high-value items.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We aim to move your belongings safely while minimising our environmental impact.
- Use of blankets, straps and covers to protect furniture and property
- Careful handling techniques to avoid knocks, scrapes and breakages
- Reusable crates and recycled packing materials where practical
- Route planning to reduce unnecessary mileage and fuel consumption
- Encouraging re-use or donation of unwanted items rather than disposal
Our approach is to move efficiently, protect what matters and act responsibly.
Real-World Use Cases
Moving House or Flat in Fulham
Many of our clients are moving between flats or terraced houses in Fulham. A man and a van setup is often all that’s needed, especially if you’re well packed. We handle parking, stairwells and tight access so you can focus on settling in.
Office and Small Business Relocations
For small offices, studios and shops, our service keeps downtime low. We move furniture, IT equipment and stock, working to your schedule, including evenings or weekends where agreed.
Urgent and Same-Day Moves
Life doesn’t always run to plan. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or short-notice moves for urgent situations: last-minute tenancy changes, urgent collections or unexpected clear-outs. Early contact gives the best chance of securing a slot.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a man and a van service in Fulham cost?
Costs depend on how much you’re moving, how many porters you need and how long the job takes. Most local moves are charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, which we’ll explain clearly before you commit. For larger or longer-distance moves we can agree a fixed price. To give you an accurate figure we’ll ask for pickup and drop-off postcodes, access details and a list of items. All quotes are free and carry no obligation.
Can you provide same-day or urgent man and a van bookings?
Yes, when our schedule allows we can offer same-day or short-notice bookings. This is often possible on weekdays outside of peak periods, but availability changes throughout the day. The best approach is to call or message us as soon as you know you need help, with your locations, timings and a rough inventory. We’ll confirm if we can assist, give you a realistic arrival window and provide a clear price before you decide.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We carry goods in transit insurance that covers your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, and public liability cover for work in and around your property. This is designed to protect you against the unexpected. There are reasonable conditions, such as suitable packing and exclusions for certain items, which we’re happy to explain. If you have particularly high-value or specialist items, let us know in advance so we can advise on the best way to protect them.
What’s included in your man and a van service?
Our standard service includes a professional driver–porter, a clean and equipped van, loading and unloading, and safe transport between the agreed addresses. We supply blankets and straps for protection and will place items into the rooms you specify. Additional services, such as packing, furniture assembly or extra porters, can be added if required. Parking charges, congestion and tolls are either included in the quote or clearly itemised so you always know what is and isn’t covered.
What’s the difference between your service and a basic man-with-a-van?
Many casual man-with-a-van operators simply offer transport, often without formal insurance, training or written terms. Our service is run as a professional removals operation. You get fully insured transport, trained staff, proper protective equipment and clear communication from enquiry to completion. We assess access, plan the move and provide written confirmation of your booking and costs. The goal is to offer the flexibility of a man and a van with the standards of a reputable removals company.
How far in advance should I book?
To secure your preferred date and time, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, especially for Fridays, month-end and peak moving periods. However, we know that not every move can be planned so neatly, so we always try to accommodate short-notice enquiries where we can. Once you’re confident of your moving date, get in touch with the key details and we’ll confirm availability, provide a clear quote and reserve your slot.
