Man & Van across Islington, done properly

Need a man with a van in Islington? Our Islington man and van service gives you a local driver, a clean Luton or medium van and help with all the lifting — charged by the hour from £50, with a two-hour minimum.

Need a flexible van for a small load in Islington? Our man & van service covers single rooms, marketplace runs and studio-scale jobs. North London classic — Victorian conversions, walk-ups and controlled parking near Angel and Highbury.

You’re charged by the hour (from £50, two-hour minimum from £100) with loading help included. Victorian conversions, garden flats, maisonettes and some new builds around Angel, Highbury and Archway.

Controlled parking and narrow streets near Angel need planning. Walk-ups are common; photos of stair turns save time on sofa and wardrobe jobs. Tell us the item list and floors so we know if a second helper will keep the clock down.

Our man & van service is the flexible, budget-friendly way to move smaller loads across London. Charged by the hour with a simple two-hour minimum, it’s perfect for single items, studio moves, marketplace purchases and those jobs that are too big for a taxi but don’t need a full removals crew.

You get a friendly, capable driver and a clean van — and, unlike a lot of cheap listings online, loading and unloading help is always included. That means your driver rolls up their sleeves and does the lifting with you, rather than watching from the cab.

Because we operate right across the capital, you’re never far from an available van. Whether you’re collecting a sofa from Wandsworth or moving a room’s worth of boxes across Camden, we’ll get it done quickly, carefully and for a price that’s clear from the outset.
