How far ahead should I book a man and van?

Two to four weeks is comfortable for a full house move in Manchester, and same day or next day is usually available for smaller loads and single items. Weekends book out fastest, so the earlier you call, the more choice you get.

Can you move everything in one trip?

Most two and three bedroom homes fit in one of our vans when the furniture is wrapped tight and the boxes are stacked flat. We tell you honestly on the phone if you need a second run, before you commit to anything.

Do you help with parking?

Yes. We know which Manchester streets need a permit, which ones have loading windows and which buildings need a goods lift booked. Tell us the address and we plan the access with you before move day.

What should I pack first?

The things you use last: seasonal clothes, books, the good china and the contents of the loft. Pack backwards from the first night box and you will never unpack a box just to find the kettle.
