Quick answer
How much does man and van cost in Southwark?
Man and van in SE1 handles single items and small flats, and a small van fits the loading bays.
Southwark removals can involve estates, high-rise flats, red routes, concierge rules and Central London loading restrictions.
We plan service lifts, loading bays, parking, packing, dismantling and protection for communal areas.
Email postcodes, floor levels, parking notes and photos of bulky items. We will tell you the right van and crew before you book.
- No ULEZ charge: it is never added to your bill.
- Access: we check Southwark road width and parking rules before the day.
- Bay suspensions: Bays here are run by Southwark Council. We tell you which one to suspend and for how long, so the van is at the door.
- Congestion Charge: The address sits on the edge of the Congestion Charge zone, so we check which side the van will stop on and confirm it on the quote.
- Prices: published hourly rates, whole-hour booking. Stairs are £10 per person per flight per hour and shown in the quote, never added on the day.
Local knowledge
Moving in Southwark: what changes the job
The address sits on the edge of the Congestion Charge zone, so we check which side the van will stop on and confirm it on the quote.
Lofts at Shad Thames, Bermondsey Street and Bankside have cobbled streets, small goods lifts and large rooms. We check big pieces against the lift using your photos.
The new towers use concierges, loading bays and booked lifts. Send the building name.
The streets near the market are busy from mid-morning and the approaches to the bridges are slow, so we start early.
