How Our Man & Van Process Works

Moving house can feel overwhelming, but our step-by-step process makes it simple and stress-free:

Book online or call

Choose your date and preferred time. Tell us what you’re moving, your access/parking situation, and whether you need any extras (wrapping/protection, disassembly/assembly, or extra stops).

We arrive and load

​Your driver and mover(s) arrive with the van ready to load. Man & Van is designed for quick, efficient loading — wrapping and dismantling are available only if pre-booked.

Secure transit

Items are loaded and secured for transport. Straps and blankets are included as standard to help protect items in the van. (Fragile wrapping and specialist protection can be added if requested.)

Unload and placement

We unload at your destination and place items in the rooms you direct (subject to safe access).

Completion and payment

Payment is due immediately after unloading is completed — bank transfer or cash accepted.

Important notes

  • If your job takes longer or needs additional trips, it’s charged by time at the same hourly rate.

  • Waiting time, stairs, long carries, restricted parking or difficult access can affect the time required — we’ll discuss this upfront where possible.

  • Man & Van is a basic service. Items should be packed/protected unless you’ve booked wrapping as an extra. If you need a more comprehensive service and higher protection levels, our Home Removals option is the better fit.

Man & Van FAQs

Q1: How much does a Man and Van cost in Leicester & Leicestershire? Our rates are £60/hr (1 man + van) or £75/hr (2 men + van) with a 2-hour minimum. Travel fees may apply beyond 10 miles of LE9 and are always confirmed upfront. If your move takes longer or needs additional trips, we simply charge the same hourly rate for the additional time.

Q2: Do you offer affordable Man and Van hire? Yes — we keep pricing clear and competitive with no hidden charges. You only pay for the time and options you actually need.

Q3: Can I book a Man with a Van near me? Yes — we cover Leicester and surrounding areas including Hinckley, Nuneaton, Rugby, Loughborough, Market Harborough, Coalville, Melton Mowbray, Blaby, Oadby & Wigston, Lutterworth, and Ashby-de-la-Zouch. Regional and nationwide transport is also available on request.

Q4: What’s the difference between Man & Van and Home Removals? Man & Van is best for smaller, time-based jobs like single items, collections, storage runs and small flat moves. Home Removals is better for larger multi-room moves and customers who want a more comprehensive service (including packing/dismantling where required and higher protection levels).

Q5: Are you insured? Yes — we have business insurance in place. Man & Van is a time-based service, so items should be packed/protected unless you’ve booked extra protection. If you have high-value or fragile items, tell us when requesting your quote and we’ll advise the best option.

Q6: What if I need dismantling or extra protection for items? Disassembly/assembly and fragile protection can be pre-booked as extras. Otherwise, items should be dismantled and packed ready before we arrive.

Q7: Can I book same-day or weekend Man and Van? Often yes, subject to availability. We regularly handle short-notice bookings and weekend jobs across Leicester and the Midlands.

Q8: What if I forget items or add extra furniture on the day? Your quote is based on the items and access details you provide. If items are added, the time required may increase and we may need to re-quote or agree additional time at the same hourly rate.

Q9: What if I have difficult access or heavy items? No problem — we plan ahead for stairs, tight access and restricted parking. For very heavy items or difficult access, we may recommend a 2-man team for safe handling.

Q10 Should I use this page or my town page? Use your town page for local access notes and booking guidance. Use this hub page if you’re not sure which area applies or you’re comparing coverage. Use Man & Van Leicestershire for a county-wide overview (rural routes, villages and travel guidance)
