We specialise in moving flats and small houses across Brighton, Sussex, and nationwide. Our experienced teams use protective equipment like furniture blankets and soft straps to ensure safe transportation. With three van sizes available, we accommodate moves ranging from single rooms to complete household relocations.
Storage Packing
Our experts maximise storage efficiency when packing containers or rooms, helping clients optimise space and value. While we don't provide storage facilities, we partner with local providers and specialise in loading storage units to professional standards for secure, space-efficient arrangements.
Student Moves
Designed for students with a compact Peugeot Bipper van ideal for transporting personal items, boxes, and small furniture between accommodations. A 5% hourly discount applies with valid NUS cards, making budget-friendly moves accessible for Brighton & Hove students requiring local relocations.

We helped our elderly mother move from a flat to a retirement home in Basel. The men who came from Man with a Van could not have been more helpful. They were fast, efficient and reasonably priced. We can recommend their service without hesitation!

Shaun is efficient, organised, professional and very friendly. If you need assistance with your removal in Brighton and beyond, I definitely recommend him. For larger jobs, your Man with a Van magically transforms into two men - just let him know the details!
