At Man and Van Queensbury, we provide reliable, well-organised furniture removals for homes and businesses across Queensbury and the surrounding areas. With years of hands-on experience in moving every type of furniture safely and efficiently, we handle the heavy lifting so you do not have to.
Our furniture removals service is designed to move your belongings from A to B safely, on time and with minimum disruption. Whether you are moving a single sofa across Queensbury or relocating a full house or office, we supply the right van, equipment and team for the job.
Every move is carefully planned. We assess access, parking and any awkward items, then choose suitable protection and handling methods. From detached homes and terraced houses to flats, student rooms and offices, we are accustomed to tight staircases, narrow hallways and controlled-entry buildings.
Working day in, day out in Queensbury means we understand local roads, parking restrictions and building layouts. This local knowledge helps us:
This familiarity keeps your move running smoothly and reduces delays, especially for time-sensitive office moves and urgent furniture collections.
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or moving out of Queensbury, we move full house contents, including large wardrobes, beds, dining sets, white goods and garden furniture. We take particular care with carpets, bannisters and freshly decorated walls.
If you are moving between rented flats or houses, we help you move quickly and tidily so you can hand the property back in good condition. We are used to stair-only buildings and limited parking, and we can work around inventory check-in and check-out appointments.
We support landlords needing furniture removals for end-of-tenancy clearances, part-furnished properties or replacing old items. We can move furniture to storage, to another property, or arrange responsible disposal of items that cannot be reused.
From small offices to retail spaces, we move desks, chairs, filing cabinets, shelving, stock and equipment. We plan moves to minimise downtime and can work outside normal business hours where possible to keep disruption low.
Students in and around Queensbury often only need a small move – a bed, desk, drawers, clothes and a few boxes. Our flexible, smaller-load student removals are affordable and can be shared between housemates heading to the same area.
We routinely move:
For safety, insurance or legal reasons, some items are excluded or need prior agreement:
If you are unsure, just ask during your enquiry and we will clarify what is possible and how it can be safely managed.
You contact us with details of your move – addresses, dates, property type, and what furniture you need moved. We may ask for photos or a rough inventory. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote and outline the services included.
For larger or more complex moves, we recommend a short survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit in Queensbury. We check access, parking, staircases, lifts and any awkward items, then confirm vehicle size, crew numbers and timings.
On moving day, or beforehand if booked, we carefully prepare your furniture. This may include:
If you choose our packing service, we can also pack smaller items into boxes, label them and prepare them for transport.
Our trained team loads the van methodically, securing items with straps to prevent movement in transit. We plan the route using our knowledge of Queensbury and beyond, allowing extra time for traffic where necessary. Vans are clean, well-maintained and fitted out for removals work.
At your new property, we unload and place furniture in the rooms you specify. Where we disassembled furniture, we can reassemble it by prior arrangement. We aim to leave everything ready for you to start using the space straight away, removing our packing materials as we go.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Costs are based on:
For smaller jobs, we often work on a simple hourly rate with a minimum booking period. For full moves, we provide a fixed-price quote once we understand the scope. All pricing is confirmed in writing so you know exactly what to expect.
Hiring a professional removals company like Man and Van Queensbury offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using an unregulated casual service:
DIY may seem cheaper at first, but once you factor in van hire, fuel, equipment, your own time and the potential cost of damage or injury, professional furniture removals are often the better value choice.
We take our responsibilities seriously and operate to recognised industry standards. Our service includes:
Full policy details and limits are available on request. We always encourage customers to highlight any particularly high-value or fragile items so we can give them extra attention.
Protecting your belongings and your property is at the heart of what we do. We use padded blankets, straps, mattress covers and, where appropriate, floor and bannister protection. Our team treats your home or premises with respect, working carefully around existing furniture, flooring and décor.
We are also mindful of our environmental impact. Where we provide boxes, we favour reusable or recyclable materials. We plan routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage, and we work with licensed waste partners for any furniture that must be disposed of, prioritising reuse and recycling where possible.
Many of our clients are moving between properties within Queensbury. We handle everything from small flats to large family homes, often completing the entire move in a single day. We coordinate with you on key collection times and timings with your buyer or landlord.
For offices and small businesses, we move desks, chairs, storage units and IT equipment. We can stagger the move to keep parts of your operation running, and we label items clearly so they end up in the correct departments and workspaces.
Occasionally, customers need urgent removals – a last-minute tenancy change, a furniture purchase that will not fit in a car, or a sudden change of plans. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day furniture removals in Queensbury. The more detail you can provide at booking, the faster we can respond.
Costs vary depending on how much furniture you have, how far you are moving and how easy the access is at each property. Smaller moves may be charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking, while full house or office moves are usually quoted at a fixed price. To give an accurate figure, we will ask about your inventory, property type and dates, and may request photos or a short video survey. All quotes are provided clearly and there is no obligation to proceed.
Where our schedule allows, we can offer same-day or next-day moves within Queensbury and nearby areas. This is often possible for smaller loads or single items, particularly midweek. For larger house or office moves, urgent availability depends on how many crews and vehicles are already committed. It is always worth calling to check, even at short notice. The more information you can provide at the outset, the quicker we can confirm whether we can help and what options are available.
Yes. We carry goods in transit insurance to protect your furniture while it is being moved, and public liability cover for the properties we work in. This is designed to cover unforeseen events, while our first line of protection is always careful planning, handling and packing. We recommend you tell us about any particularly valuable or fragile items so we can give them special attention and confirm coverage. Full details of our insurance, including limits and exclusions, are available on request before you book.
Our standard service includes arrival at the agreed time, careful loading of your furniture, protective blankets and securing in the vehicle, transport to your new address and unloading into the rooms you choose. On request, we can add services such as packing of smaller items, dismantling and reassembling furniture, supply of packing materials and responsible disposal of unwanted items. All inclusions and any optional extras are listed clearly in your written quote so you know exactly what to expect on the day.
A casual man-and-van may simply provide transport and some lifting, often without formal training, proper equipment or insurance. A professional removals service like ours plans each move carefully, uses trained staff, carries suitable insurance and supplies the right protective materials. We assess access in advance, secure items correctly in the vehicle and work to agreed standards and timescales. This approach reduces the risk of damage, delays and unexpected costs, giving you a more predictable and less stressful moving experience.
For full house or office moves, we recommend booking at least two to three weeks in advance, especially if you need a specific date or are moving at busy times such as weekends or month-end. Smaller jobs and single-item moves can often be arranged with less notice, and sometimes on the same or next day. The earlier you contact us, the more flexibility we have with timings and pricing. Once booked, your slot is reserved and we will keep you updated as your move date approaches.
Moving a piano is never just another job. It is a heavy, delicate, and often sentimental instrument that needs experienced hands and the right equipment. At Man and Van Queensbury, our dedicated piano removals team provides a safe, efficient and fully managed service for every type of piano move in and around Queensbury.
Our piano removals service is designed specifically for upright, digital and grand pianos. We understand the combination of awkward weight, fragile internal mechanisms and often tight access. We use purpose-built skates, padded covers, ramps, and, when needed, additional manpower or specialist lifting to protect both your piano and your property.
Every move is planned in advance. We assess access, stairs, flooring and doorways so that on the day everything runs smoothly. Your piano is wrapped, protected, secured in our vehicle and transported with care, then placed exactly where you want it at the destination.
Based in Queensbury, we know the local streets, hills, parking restrictions and typical property layouts extremely well. This local knowledge allows us to plan realistic timings, choose the best vehicle access and bring the right number of movers for your job.
Whether you are moving between streets in Queensbury, bringing a piano into the area, or sending one to another town, our professional local team will manage every detail. We regularly work in houses, flats, schools, churches, rehearsal spaces and small venues across Queensbury and the surrounding areas.
If you are moving house or rearranging rooms and need a piano moved safely, we provide a careful, tidy service that protects your floors, walls and banisters as much as your instrument.
We help renters in flats and houses move pianos in and out without damaging fixtures or communal areas, reducing the risk of disputes with landlords and agents.
When a property is changing tenants and a piano needs to be removed, stored or relocated, we can handle the move quickly and with minimal disruption to schedules.
From schools and music studios to hotels, restaurants and community halls, we move pianos between rooms, floors and sites, often outside normal hours to avoid disturbing your operations.
We support students and tutors moving between term-time and home addresses, as well as teachers relocating studio pianos. Our service is suitable for one-off moves, relocations and temporary moves.
If you are unsure whether your piano or access is suitable, we will clarify during the quotation and survey stage.
You contact us with basic details: piano type, current address, destination, floor levels and any access concerns. We provide a clear, no-obligation quotation, usually the same day. Prices are based on distance, access difficulty, piano type and any extra services you request.
For straightforward moves, a video call and some photos are usually enough. For more complex access, such as tight staircases, many steps or awkward turns, we may visit in person. The survey lets us confirm feasibility, plan the safest route and agree any additional support needed.
On the day, we protect floors where needed and prepare the piano. This may include removing music stands, securing lids and, for some grands, carefully removing legs and pedals. The piano is then wrapped in padded covers, with edges and corners given extra protection.
Using the correct number of trained movers, we carefully manoeuvre the piano on specialist skates and trolleys, taking care around corners, steps and doorframes. It is then loaded via ramp or tail lift, secured firmly in the vehicle and transported steadily, avoiding harsh braking and uneven routes where possible.
At the destination we reverse the process, taking the same care with access. We place the piano in your chosen room and position, making minor adjustments until you are satisfied. Wrapping is removed, and we carry out a visual check for you before we leave. We recommend allowing the piano to settle before booking a tuner.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our piano removals in Queensbury are typically charged as a fixed price per move, based on:
Your written quote will state exactly what is included, with no hidden extras added on the day unless you request additional work. If circumstances change (such as a different piano or new address), we will update the quote in advance.
Many people underestimate how difficult and risky it is to move a piano without experience. Attempting a DIY move or using a casual man-and-van can lead to serious damage to the instrument, injury to people, and damage to walls, floors and staircases.
Our professional team brings the right equipment, protective materials and knowledge of safe handling techniques. We understand weight distribution, leverage and the vulnerable parts of a piano. Using a specialist service protects your investment, your property and everyone involved, and is usually far more cost-effective than repairing damage afterwards.
Man and Van Queensbury operates to high professional standards, with appropriate cover in place for piano removals.
We are happy to confirm details of our insurance cover and working practices on request, so you have full confidence before booking.
Your piano and property are treated with the same care we would apply to our own belongings. We use padded blankets, wrap, and, where appropriate, corner and edge protectors to help prevent knocks and scrapes. Floors and stair banisters are protected in high-risk areas.
We also consider environmental impact. Where possible we use reusable protective materials rather than single-use plastics, and we plan routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage. Well-maintained vehicles are loaded responsibly to avoid excess fuel consumption while still allowing for safe securing of your piano.
When you are moving home, your piano is often one of the most valuable and sentimental items. We can move it as a standalone service or as part of a broader house removals package, coordinating with your move schedule to minimise disruption.
We regularly relocate pianos for schools, churches, rehearsal studios and venues in Queensbury. Moves can be scheduled outside teaching hours or event times, with careful coordination to minimise downtime and inconvenience.
Sometimes a piano needs to be moved quickly – for example, when a property sale completes unexpectedly or a tenancy ends sooner than planned. Subject to availability, we can accommodate same-day or next-day piano removals in Queensbury and nearby areas.
The cost of a piano removal depends on the type of piano, access at each property and the distance between addresses. Upright pianos on ground-floor to ground-floor moves are usually the most straightforward and therefore the most cost-effective. Moves involving multiple flights of stairs, tight turns, or baby grands and grand pianos require more planning, manpower and time, which increases the price. We provide a clear fixed quotation after asking a few questions or completing a brief survey, so you know the full cost before you commit.
We can often help with same-day or short-notice piano removals in Queensbury, depending on our schedule and the complexity of the move. Simple ground-floor moves nearby are easier to accommodate at short notice than multi-floor or long-distance jobs. If you need an urgent move, contact us as early as you can with details of the piano, addresses and any access challenges. We will confirm availability, provide a rapid quotation and, if you are happy, schedule the move at the earliest practical time.
Yes. Your piano is covered under our goods in transit insurance while being moved and transported, subject to the terms and limits of our policy. In addition, our public liability cover provides protection for accidental damage to property during the move. We always handle instruments to avoid issues in the first place, but the insurance is there for peace of mind. We are happy to share confirmation of our cover and answer any questions so you fully understand how your piano is protected before booking.
Our piano removal service includes the safe loading, transport and unloading of your piano between the agreed addresses. We bring trained movers, protective covers, trolleys and ramps, and we position the piano in your chosen room at the destination. Basic preparation, such as securing lids and removing detachable music stands, is also included. What is not included as standard is tuning, internal repairs, crane services or long-term storage, although we can often recommend trusted local specialists for these. All inclusions are clearly shown on your written quotation.
While some general man-and-van services will attempt to move pianos, they may not have the specific training, equipment or insurance needed. Our piano removals are carried out by professional movers who regularly handle heavy, delicate items and understand the particular risks of pianos. We use appropriate protection, skates and secure fixing methods, and we plan each move in detail. This greatly reduces the chance of damage to the instrument or property and gives you proper insurance protection. In short, it is a specialist service rather than a basic transport job.
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking your piano removal at least one to two weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as month-end and school holidays. This allows us to schedule the right team and vehicle and, if needed, carry out a survey beforehand. However, we know plans can change quickly, so we always try to accommodate last-minute requests where possible. Even if your move is urgent, it is still worth contacting us to check our current availability.
Moving home in Queensbury or the surrounding areas? Man and Van Queensbury provides a reliable, professional house removals service tailored to local homes, roads and building types. Whether you are moving a small flat or a large family house, we handle your belongings with care, keep you informed, and work to your timings.
Our team has moved households in Queensbury for years. We know the area’s terraced streets, busy main roads, permit parking and access issues, and we plan each move around them. That means sensible loading points, realistic timings, and the right size vehicle for your property and street.
We offer:
Moving between houses in Queensbury or out of the area? We can handle full household contents, from large appliances to garden items, with careful protection for furniture and floors.
If you are moving between rented properties, we work around your key collection and checkout times, ensuring the property is left tidy and damage-free so you avoid deposit disputes.
We support landlords needing a clearance and removals-style service when tenants move out, or when preparing a property for sale or new tenants, always handling items responsibly and respectfully.
Small offices or home-based businesses moving equipment and stock can rely on us for office and home-office removals, with proper care for IT equipment, files and furniture.
We regularly help students move between halls, shared houses and family homes. Compact, affordable moves with the same professional standards as our larger jobs.
Our Queensbury house removals service usually covers:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we normally cannot move:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise at the survey stage and suggest safe options.
Contact Man and Van Queensbury by phone or online and tell us the basics: current address, destination, property size, access details and preferred move date. We will provide an initial estimate and arrange a more detailed fixed quote where appropriate, so you know what to budget for.
For most house removals in Queensbury, we carry out a brief survey. This can be a video call, photos, or an in-person visit. We assess the amount to be moved, access, parking, stairs and any special items (pianos, large wardrobes, fragile pieces). This lets us allocate the right vehicle, crew size and time, avoiding delays on move day.
You can choose between:
We use proper removals-grade boxes, tape and protective wrapping for fragile and high-value items. Furniture is covered with padded blankets, and mattresses are protected where required.
On the day, our trained team arrives on time, protects floors where necessary and loads systematically. Heavy items are handled using trolleys and lifting techniques designed to protect both the crew and your belongings. Everything is securely strapped in the vehicle for safe transit. We then travel directly to your new property, using sensible routes based on Queensbury traffic and access.
At the new address, we unload into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it and stacking boxes sensibly so you can unpack easily. We can reassemble basic furniture if agreed in advance. Before we leave, we double-check that all items have been delivered and that you are happy with the placement.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our quotes are based on:
Once we have completed a survey, we provide a written quote with no hidden extras, explaining what is included. Any optional costs, such as packing materials or additional services, are clearly listed so you can decide what you need.
Doing it yourself or hiring an unregulated man-and-van can seem cheaper, but often leads to stress, damage and unexpected costs. With Man and Van Queensbury, you benefit from:
This reduces the risk of injury, damage to property, and disputes over responsibility if something goes wrong.
We operate to recognised industry standards for local removals. For your peace of mind, we maintain:
Policy details and limits are available on request, and we are happy to explain how cover applies to your specific move. We also record important details of your items and access conditions to minimise any risk.
We treat every household as if it were our own. Furniture is wrapped, fragile items are cushioned, and we use sensible loading patterns to avoid crushing or movement in transit. Where possible, we reuse strong cardboard boxes and other materials to reduce waste, while ensuring they remain in safe condition for your belongings.
We also plan routes efficiently to cut unnecessary mileage around Queensbury and beyond, helping to reduce fuel use and emissions where we can.
Typical moves include families upsizing or downsizing within the area. We often provide a part-packing service, handle all furniture, and complete the move in a single day, coordinating with estate agents and key times.
Small businesses moving into new premises rely on us to move desks, chairs, filing cabinets and IT equipment with care, keeping disruption to staff and customers to a minimum.
When completion dates change or tenancy notices are short, we do our best to offer same-day or rapid-response moves in Queensbury, subject to availability. We prioritise clear communication so you know exactly what we can do.
Costs depend mainly on how much you are moving, the distance between properties and how easy the access is at each address. A small flat move within Queensbury will usually be far cheaper than a large family home going long distance. Packing services, materials and any special handling requirements can also affect the price. After a quick survey, we provide a clear written quote so you know exactly what is included and what the final cost will be before you book.
We can often help with same-day or short-notice moves in Queensbury, especially for smaller properties or part loads. Availability depends on how busy we are and the size of your move, so it is always best to call us as soon as you know you need to move. If we cannot fit you in at the exact time requested, we will offer the closest possible alternative and explain what is realistically achievable within the time frame.
Yes. We have goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are in our vehicle, and public liability cover for work at your property. Insurance operates within set terms, conditions and limits, which we can outline in writing on request. We also work hard to prevent problems in the first place by using protective materials, trained staff and sensible loading methods that keep risk as low as possible during your move.
Our standard service includes loading all agreed items at your current address, transporting them to your new home, and unloading into the rooms you choose. We protect furniture with blankets and use trolleys and straps where needed. Optional extras include full or part packing, dismantling and reassembly of certain furniture, and supply of boxes and packing materials. Your written quote will clearly list what is included for your move, so there are no surprises on the day.
A casual man-and-van often provides only transport, with limited protection, no formal insurance and little planning. Man and Van Queensbury operates as a professional removals company: we carry out surveys, provide written quotes, use trained staff and maintain proper insurance. We bring the right equipment, plan access and timings, and manage your move from start to finish. This significantly reduces the risk of damage, delays and disputes, giving you a smoother, more reliable moving experience.
For house removals in Queensbury, we recommend booking at least two to three weeks in advance, particularly for Fridays, weekends and month-end dates, which are often busiest. If your completion or move date is not yet fixed, contact us early so we can pencil you in and discuss options. We will always try to accommodate last-minute moves where possible, but early booking gives you more choice of times and helps keep everything calm and organised.
At Man and Van Queensbury, our man with van service is designed for people who want a reliable, professional move without the cost and fuss of a large removal lorry. You still get an experienced mover, a clean and well-maintained van, and careful handling of your belongings – just at a more flexible, cost-effective scale.
We work in and around Queensbury every day, so we know the local roads, parking restrictions, and building layouts inside out. That means:
Being truly local also means we can often help with same-day or short-notice moves when you need us most.
Ideal for smaller house moves, moving a few rooms of furniture, or shifting bulky items such as wardrobes, beds and white goods. If you do not quite need a full removal crew, our man with van is a sensible, economical choice.
Perfect for flat and house moves in Queensbury, whether you are moving across town or just around the corner. We regularly help renters with short-notice end-of-tenancy moves and can assist with basic dismantling and reassembly where agreed in advance.
Landlords use our service to clear properties between tenancies, move furniture in or out of furnished lets, and transport appliances. We handle items carefully and dispose of agreed unwanted items at licensed facilities where required.
Our man with van option suits smaller office relocations, moving individual workstations, archive boxes, IT equipment or display materials. We can operate outside office hours to minimise disruption to your staff and customers.
We do a lot of student moves into and out of shared houses, halls and studios. One van and one or two movers is usually enough to handle boxes, bags, desks, bikes and a few bits of furniture in a single trip.
With our Queensbury man with van, you can move a wide range of household and business items, including:
For safety and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from our man with van service:
If you are unsure about a particular item, just ask – we will give you clear, honest guidance.
Contact us by phone, email or online form with basic details: addresses, access, what you need to move, and your preferred date. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote, usually the same day. For straightforward jobs, this can be done from your description and photos alone.
For larger or more complex moves, we may suggest a short video call or an onsite visit in Queensbury. This lets us check access, parking, stairs and item sizes so we can send the right size van, the right number of movers, and an accurate time estimate.
You can pack your own boxes, or we can supply packing materials in advance. On the day, our team protects your furniture with blankets and straps, and may use covers for mattresses and sofas. We ask that fragile items are clearly labelled and that appliances are disconnected before we arrive.
Our movers handle all normal lifting and carrying unless a labour-only service has been agreed. We load the van carefully, securing items with straps and blankets to prevent movement in transit. Then we transport your belongings directly to the new address using sensible, efficient routes through Queensbury and beyond.
At the destination, we unload and place items in the rooms you specify. We will not just leave everything by the front door. We work steadily but efficiently, mindful of neighbours, shared hallways and building rules. Once you are happy, we do a final check of the van so nothing is left behind.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing. Most man with van jobs are quoted on either:
Your quote will confirm:
There are no hidden extras; any potential additional charges (for example, congestion charges, extra collections, or waiting time due to access problems) are explained clearly before you book.
Hiring a casual helper or doing it all yourself may seem cheaper, but it often ends up costing more in time, stress and damage. A professional service like ours offers:
Most importantly, you are not risking your back, your deposit, or damage to the property by attempting difficult moves without the correct skills and tools.
As an experienced removals operator, we take our responsibilities seriously. Our man with van service is backed by:
We work to clear standards: punctual arrival, honest communication if there are any issues, and respectful behaviour in your home or workplace. If something does not go to plan, we deal with it transparently and fairly.
We treat your belongings as if they were our own. That means using protective blankets, straps and covers, stacking items correctly, and taking care not to mark walls, doors or floors. Where possible, we re-use strong, good-quality packing materials and minimise unnecessary trips to reduce our environmental impact.
For unwanted furniture or appliances, we can arrange removal to licensed recycling centres as an additional service, helping you clear space without fly-tipping or inappropriate disposal.
Smaller moves, part moves or short-distance relocations across Queensbury are perfectly suited to our man with van service. We can handle everything from a studio flat to a modest two-bedroom property, depending on volume.
For businesses, we move desks, chairs, filing cabinets, stock and light equipment. We can schedule moves in the evening or at weekends to limit downtime, and we work neatly to keep shared areas clear and safe.
Sometimes things change quickly – a let falls through, a landlord needs a property cleared, or a delivery has let you down. Because we are based locally, we can often provide same-day or next-day man with van support in Queensbury, subject to availability.
Pricing depends on how long the job takes, the number of movers required, and the distance between addresses. Smaller local moves are often charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, while more defined jobs can be priced as a fixed fee. To give you an accurate quote, we will ask for a list of main items, floor levels, and access details. There are no hidden extras; any potential additional costs are explained clearly before you confirm your booking.
Yes, we frequently handle same-day and short-notice moves in Queensbury, especially for renters, students and urgent clearances. Availability depends on our schedule and the size of the job, but being local means we can often respond quickly. The more information you can give us when you call – what needs moving, where from and to, and any access issues – the faster we can confirm whether we can help and provide a clear price for the urgent booking.
Yes. Our man with van service is supported by goods in transit insurance for items while they are in our vehicle, and public liability cover for accidental damage to property or third parties. This is not a blanket guarantee for every circumstance, so we will explain any limits and exclusions in plain language. We always recommend that especially valuable or delicate items are highlighted in advance so we can advise on the best way to protect them.
Our standard service includes a suitable van, an experienced driver-mover, fuel, and all normal loading and unloading of household or office items. We supply protective blankets and straps, and we place items in the rooms you specify at the destination. Optional extras include additional movers, packing materials, basic dismantling and reassembly, extra pick-up or drop-off points, and disposal of agreed unwanted items. Your written quote will clearly state exactly what is included so you know where you stand.
A casual man-and-van is often just a driver with a vehicle. With us, you get a professional removals operator: insured, trained teams, proper equipment and a structured process. We survey tricky jobs in advance, provide written confirmations, and are accountable if something goes wrong. Our vehicles are maintained for removals work, and our staff are experienced in handling furniture, appliances and fragile items. In short, you gain reliability, protection and peace of mind, rather than taking a gamble on an unknown operator.
For planned moves, we recommend booking your Queensbury man with van at least one to two weeks in advance, especially for weekends and month-end dates, which are usually busiest. That said, we keep some flexibility for short-notice work, so it is always worth asking, even on the day. The sooner you contact us, the better the chance of securing your ideal time slot and finalising any details such as parking arrangements, packing materials and building access requirements.
Starting or finishing university is stressful enough without worrying about how you’ll move your belongings. At Man and Van Queensbury, we provide straightforward, affordable student removals across Queensbury and the surrounding areas, tailored to the way students really live and travel.
Student moves are rarely full-house removals. It’s usually a mix of boxes, clothes, tech, a few bits of furniture and kitchenware – often split between halls, shared houses and home. Our professional teams understand this and plan every move around your timetable, your budget and your travel arrangements.
Whether you’re moving into halls, changing student accommodation, heading back home, or relocating for a placement year, we make it simple, safe and efficient.
Based in Queensbury, we know the local area, campuses, and typical student housing layouts very well. That local knowledge means:
Our drivers and movers are used to working around student timetables, exam periods, and key pick-up and drop-off slots, so you can focus on your course, not the logistics.
Although the focus is on students, our service is designed to support everyone involved in student accommodation in Queensbury:
Undergraduates, postgraduates, international students, and placement-year students who need reliable transport for belongings between home, halls and shared houses.
Parents and guardians who need a trusted team to help get their student set up or back home with minimal disruption.
Landlords managing student properties who need efficient turnaround between tenancies, including clearing, moving and basic placement of furniture.
Universities, colleges and local businesses requiring bulk student moves, small office relocations linked to student services, or equipment moves for student accommodation blocks.
Our vans and teams are set up to handle almost all typical student belongings, including:
For safety and legal reasons, some items are excluded from our student removals in Queensbury:
If you’re unsure about a particular item, just ask – we’ll advise on the safest and most practical way to manage it.
Contact us by phone or online with your dates, addresses (including floor numbers), and a rough list of items. We’ll provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the volume, distance, access and any extra services (such as packing or dismantling). For most student moves, this can be done quickly and simply.
For typical student moves, a virtual survey (video call or photos) is usually enough. For larger or more complex moves (for example multiple students sharing a van, or landlord-led property clearances), we can arrange an onsite visit in Queensbury to ensure we send the right van size and team.
You can pack your own belongings, or we can supply packing materials and a professional packing service. We’ll advise on how to pack fragile tech, books and personal items to keep everything safe. On moving day, we’ll protect doors, walls and stairways where needed to minimise any risk of damage.
Our trained movers will carefully load your items, using blankets, straps and covers to protect furniture and electronics. We plan the loading order so that items needed first at the destination come off first. Your belongings are then transported in our modern, well-maintained vans under full goods in transit insurance.
At the new address, we unload into the rooms you specify – not just “dumped in the hallway”. We can reassemble beds and basic furniture on request and take away any packing materials we’ve supplied. Before we leave, we’ll check you’re happy that everything is in the right place.
We know students and parents need clear, predictable costs. Our pricing is based on:
We provide fixed-price quotes wherever possible, so you know the cost upfront. There are no hidden charges for standard mileage or basic protective materials, and we’ll explain any potential extra fees (for example, congestion or parking charges) in advance.
Using a professional removal service like Man and Van Queensbury offers clear advantages over borrowing a car or hiring an unverified man-with-a-van:
As an established removals company in Queensbury, we operate to high professional standards:
We’ll happily provide evidence of our cover and answer any questions you have about what is and is not included.
We take pride in handling your belongings as if they were our own. This means careful lifting techniques, appropriate protective materials, and respect for the properties we’re working in – whether that’s university halls, student flats or family homes.
We also consider sustainability in how we operate:
We collect from your home address, load everything in one go and deliver straight to your halls in Queensbury or nearby cities, timed with your check-in slot. Ideal for students travelling separately by train or coach.
We move you from your current shared house to the next, often with a short storage period if there’s a gap in tenancies. Landlords can co-ordinate multiple student moves with us on the same day.
We help students who are heading home for the summer or returning overseas by moving belongings into storage, to family, or to shipping depots, keeping the process organised and efficient.
The cost of a student removal in Queensbury depends mainly on how much you’re moving, the distance between addresses, and access at each property. Most student moves are smaller than full-house removals, so prices are often lower and can sometimes be charged on a part-load or shared-van basis. Once you give us a list of items and locations, we’ll provide a clear, fixed quote so you know the total in advance, with no hidden extras for standard mileage or basic protective materials.
Yes, we can often accommodate same-day or short-notice student removals in Queensbury, especially outside peak moving weekends. Availability will depend on our schedule and the size of the move, so it’s best to call us as soon as you know you need help. For urgent moves, we keep the process simple: a quick assessment by phone or photos, a fast quote, and then we dispatch the nearest suitable van and team. We’ll always be honest if timings are tight or adjustments are needed.
Yes. All student removals are covered by our goods in transit insurance, which protects your belongings while they are being handled by our team and transported in our vehicles. We also carry public liability cover in case of accidental damage to buildings or third-party property. Some items, such as very high-value electronics or antiques, may be subject to specific limits or conditions, which we’ll explain before you book. We always recommend keeping essential documents, cash and passports with you personally.
Our standard student removals service includes loading, transport and unloading of your belongings between addresses, with basic protection using blankets, covers and securing straps. We place items into the rooms you specify and can handle stairs and multi-storey buildings. Optional extras include packing materials, full or partial packing services, furniture dismantling and reassembly, and short-term storage. We’ll tailor the service to your needs and confirm exactly what’s included in your written quote so there are no surprises on the day.
While some man-and-van services can be useful for very small jobs, a professional student removal service offers a higher level of reliability and protection. You benefit from trained staff, proper insurance, planned loading and unloading, and well-equipped vehicles with the right protective materials. We provide written quotes, confirmed bookings and clear communication, reducing the risk of last-minute cancellations or damage. For many students, the small difference in cost is outweighed by the peace of mind and time saved during a busy move.
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking your student removal in Queensbury at least two to three weeks in advance, especially around the start and end of academic terms when demand is highest. That said, we understand plans can change quickly for students, so we always try to accommodate last-minute bookings where possible. Once your exam timetable or tenancy dates are confirmed, it’s wise to reserve your slot so you can focus on studying rather than worrying about transport.
When you need to move today, you need a team that knows exactly what they are doing. At Man and Van Queensbury, we specialise in fast, well-organised same day removals across Queensbury and the surrounding areas. Every move is planned and carried out by a trained, professional and fully insured local removals team.
Whether you have been let down by another mover, had a last‑minute change of plans, or simply left it late to book, we can usually arrange a vehicle and crew for the same day, subject to availability.
Working day in, day out in Queensbury means we understand local streets, parking restrictions, and building access better than most. We are used to dealing with:
This local knowledge allows us to plan your same day removals efficiently, avoiding delays and keeping disruption to your day to a minimum.
Chain completion brought forward? Buyer or seller suddenly ready to exchange and complete? We help homeowners in Queensbury manage urgent house moves, keeping your belongings safe and your move on schedule.
If your landlord needs you out today, or your new place has become available at short notice, our same day service is ideal. We regularly help tenants move between flats and houses in and around Queensbury on the same day.
We work closely with landlords and agents who require rapid void property clearances or last‑minute tenant move‑outs. We can remove furniture, white goods and personal items quickly and responsibly, ready for cleaning or new tenants.
From small offices to local shops, we offer same day office removals and urgent commercial moves across Queensbury. Whether it is an emergency relocation, a short‑notice store refit, or moving stock between locations, we provide a prompt, organised response.
Students often face unexpected move dates, end‑of‑tenancy rushes or storage deadlines. Our affordable same day student removals are ideal for moving between halls, shared houses and storage facilities around Queensbury.
We can move most household and office items on a same day basis, including:
For safety, legal or insurance reasons, certain items are excluded from our service:
If you are unsure about a particular item, just ask when you enquire and we will advise.
Call us or send an online enquiry as early as possible. We will ask a few key questions about your current address, destination, access, and what needs moving. Based on this, we provide a fast, no‑obligation quote and confirm whether same day slots are available.
For most same day moves we use a quick virtual survey via photos, video call, or a detailed item list. For larger properties or complex access, we may send a team member if time allows. The survey ensures we send the right size vehicle, crew and equipment for a smooth move.
If you are already packed, we will simply protect and move your items. If you need help, we can offer same day packing assistance subject to availability. We bring moving blankets, straps and basic protective materials, and we can dismantle simple furniture where needed.
Our trained team carefully loads your belongings, using proper lifting techniques and securing everything safely in the vehicle. We plan our route around Queensbury traffic and parking constraints, keeping you informed of timings throughout the day.
At your new property, we unload items into the rooms you choose, not just to the door. We can reassemble straightforward furniture and position bulky items like wardrobes, beds and desks so you can settle in as quickly as possible.
Same day moves are priced clearly and fairly. Costs depend on:
We usually work on an hourly rate for smaller same day jobs and a fixed price for larger moves, agreed in advance. There are no hidden extras; any potential additional charges (for congestion zones, extended waiting times, or late‑night working) are discussed before you confirm your booking.
Last‑minute moves often tempt people to hire a casual van or rope in friends. In reality, an urgent move is where a professional removals company makes the biggest difference:
A cheap, unregulated man‑and‑van may seem attractive, but without insurance, training or standards, any damage or delay can quickly become expensive. With Man and Van Queensbury, you know exactly who is handling your belongings.
Every same day removal is carried out under strict professional standards. We provide:
We handle your items as if they were our own, and we are always happy to explain exactly what is covered so you are fully informed before we start.
Even on a tight timescale, we never cut corners on care. We use protective blankets, straps and floor protection where necessary, and we load items to avoid movement in transit. For sustainability, we aim to:
If you have items to be cleared or recycled as part of your same day move, let us know in advance so we can arrange the appropriate service.
Completion brought forward, or keys ready earlier than expected? We regularly help families and individuals in Queensbury move house on the same day, coordinating with agents and solicitors where needed.
Flood, fire or emergency repairs can force an immediate office move. We can relocate desks, chairs, IT equipment and files rapidly, helping you get back up and running with minimal downtime.
From clearing halls at the end of term to moving into a new flat with only a few days’ notice, our same day student service keeps things simple and affordable, with smaller vehicles and flexible crews.
Costs vary depending on how much you need to move, the distance between addresses, access at each property, and how many movers are required. Smaller same day jobs are often charged at an hourly rate, while larger moves may be priced as a fixed quote so you know the total in advance. There may be additional charges for long distances, evening work or complex access, but we always explain these before you book. Contact us with a quick item list and we will provide a clear, no‑obligation estimate.
We do our best to accommodate same day requests, and in many cases we can send a vehicle and crew within hours. Availability depends on how busy we are, the size of the move, and where you are based in relation to Queensbury. The earlier in the day you contact us, the more likely we can fit you in. Even if a full move is not possible, we may be able to prioritise essential items or provide a part‑load solution on the same day, with the remainder moved as soon as possible.
We include goods in transit insurance as standard, which covers your belongings while they are being loaded, transported and unloaded. We also hold public liability insurance, protecting you and your property in the unlikely event of accidental damage during the move. Cover levels are designed to suit typical household and small business moves, but if you have particularly high‑value or specialist items, please mention this when booking so we can advise on any additional precautions or documentation needed.
Our same day service covers the vehicle, fuel, a professional removals team, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. We bring protective blankets and securing straps as standard, and we can carry out basic furniture dismantling and reassembly by prior arrangement. Packing can often be added for an extra charge, subject to time and availability. We place items in the rooms you choose and ensure everything is safely offloaded before we leave, so you can start settling in immediately.
A casual man‑and‑van often operates without formal training, written terms or adequate insurance. In contrast, we provide trained staff, goods in transit and public liability cover, proper equipment, and a planned approach to every move. This reduces the risk of damage, injury or delays. We also offer clear quotes, confirmation of your booking, and accountable service standards. For urgent same day moves, this reliability is crucial; if something goes wrong with an unregulated operator, you may have little or no protection.
For genuine same day moves, contact us as early in the morning as you can. Our diary fills quickly, especially at weekends and month‑end, so more notice usually means more options and potentially lower costs. If you already suspect you might need a last‑minute move, it is worth speaking to us in advance so we can pencil in provisional arrangements. For planned moves, booking several days or weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of dates and times, but we are always ready to help at short notice where possible.
At Man and Van Queensbury, our man and a van service is designed for people who want professional standards without the cost and hassle of a large removals crew. You get an experienced driver–porter with a clean, fully equipped van, backed by a local removals company that is fully insured, properly trained and focused on careful, efficient moves across Queensbury and the surrounding areas.
This service is ideal for smaller moves and flexible transport jobs where you still want the reassurance of a professional removals company. We handle:
You benefit from a local team that does this every day, knows the area well, and treats every job with the same level of care as a full house move.
Because we are based in Queensbury, we understand the realities of moving here: tight streets, parking restrictions, high-floor flats and busy times of day. We plan each job around these local details to keep your move running smoothly.
We regularly work across Queensbury and nearby areas, helping residents, landlords and businesses with reliable, punctual and professional man and a van support. If access is tricky or you are unsure where the van can park, we will talk this through with you in advance and find a sensible solution.
Perfect for moving a small property, handling the final few loads of a larger move, or transporting heavier items such as white goods, wardrobes and garden furniture. We can work alongside your own car or van to complete your move efficiently.
Whether you are moving between rented flats, house shares or studios, our flexible service helps keep costs down. We work quickly but carefully, protecting stairwells and common areas so you leave your old property in good condition.
We support landlords with furniture moves between properties, clear-outs after tenants leave, and delivery of appliances or part-furnished items. We are used to key collection, check-in times and coordinating access with agents.
Small offices, salons, shops and workshops use our service for light relocations, stock runs and moving equipment between sites. We can operate outside normal hours to minimise disruption to your trading day.
Students often need a simple, affordable way to move boxes, bags, a bike and a few pieces of furniture. Our Queensbury man and a van service is ideal: one van, one or two movers and a clear, straightforward price.
We can safely move most everyday household and office items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons we do not transport:
If you are unsure about a particular item, just ask. We are happy to advise or suggest a safe alternative.
You contact us with your move details: addresses, dates, list of items, access notes and any time constraints. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote, usually based on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, or a fixed price for specific jobs.
For straightforward jobs, a phone or video survey is usually enough. For more complex moves (multiple flights of stairs, difficult access or larger loads), we may recommend a short onsite visit. This helps us allocate the right van size, number of movers and time, so you are not surprised on the day.
You can do your own packing, or we can provide packing services at an additional cost. We always bring blankets, straps and basic protection. We ask that boxes are packed securely, labelled where possible, and that appliances are disconnected and emptied before we arrive.
On moving day, we arrive at the agreed time, walk through the job with you, and plan the loading order. Our trained team use carrying techniques, trolleys and protective materials to move your belongings safely. Everything is secured inside the van for transport to prevent movement and damage.
At your destination, we unload items into the rooms you indicate, not just to the doorstep. We place furniture where you need it and stack boxes sensibly to make unpacking easier. Before we leave, we invite you to check that everything has been unloaded and positioned to your satisfaction.
We believe man and a van pricing should be straightforward. We typically offer:
Your quote will explain exactly what is included: number of movers, size of van, approximate duration, travel time, congestion or parking charges where relevant. There are no hidden "extras" added on the day as long as the job matches the information provided at booking.
Hiring a casual van with a friend might look cheaper, but it often leads to damage, delays and a lot of stress. With Man and Van Queensbury you get:
When you factor in fuel, van hire, time off work and the risk of breakages, a professional man and a van service is often the more sensible, cost-effective choice.
Your belongings are important to you, so they are important to us. Our service is fully backed by:
We follow industry best practice for wrapping, loading and securing items, and we will always be honest with you about what is and is not covered so expectations are clear from the outset.
We put protection at the centre of every move. Vans are equipped with padded blankets, ratchet straps, shrink wrap and tools to dismantle and reassemble furniture where needed. We take time to protect corners, bannisters and doorways, particularly in communal areas.
We also aim to work as responsibly as possible. We reuse durable packing materials where hygiene allows, consolidate journeys when practical to reduce empty running, and can recommend local reuse or recycling options for unwanted items so they do not go straight to landfill.
Many Queensbury residents use our man and a van option for one- and two-bed properties, or as an add-on to a larger removal. It is an efficient way to manage a staged move, especially when you have access to your new home a few days early.
Small businesses often do not need a full-scale removals crew. Our service works well for moving desks, chairs, filing cabinets, stock and IT equipment between premises or into storage, with minimal downtime.
Situations change: last-minute keys, tenancy issues or urgent collections. When our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day man and a van support in Queensbury. Calling as early as possible gives us the best chance to help.
Pricing depends on factors such as distance, volume of items, access at each address and how many movers you need. For local jobs, we usually work on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period. For clearer jobs, like a straightforward flat move or single-item delivery, we can often agree a fixed price in advance. Your quote will break down exactly what is included so you know what you are paying for and can compare like for like with confidence.
Yes, we regularly help with urgent or short-notice moves in Queensbury, including same-day work when our schedule allows. Availability depends on existing bookings, the time of your call and the size of the job. If you need a last-minute move or collection, contact us as early as possible with full details of what needs moving, and we will confirm if we can fit you in, along with a clear price and estimated arrival window.
Yes. Our vans are covered by goods in transit insurance, which protects your belongings while they are in our care, and we hold public liability insurance for accidental damage to property or third parties. We will explain the key points of cover when you book, including any limits or exclusions, so you understand how the protection works. For particularly high-value or unusual items, we may recommend additional arrangements or ask for more information before confirming.
Our standard service includes a suitable van, an experienced driver–porter, fuel for the agreed journey, protective blankets, straps and careful loading and unloading at each address. We will place items into the rooms you request, not just to the door. Optional extras, such as additional porters, packing services or packing materials, can be added for an agreed cost. Your written quote will outline exactly what is included so there is no confusion on the day.
A casual man-and-van is often just a vehicle and a driver, with limited protection, no formal training and unclear insurance. Our Queensbury service is run as a professional removals operation: trained staff, proper equipment, documented insurance and clear procedures. We survey the job, plan access, protect your belongings and communicate throughout. This significantly reduces the risk of damage, delays or disputes and gives you a reliable, accountable service rather than a one-off cash job.
For weekend or month-end moves, we recommend booking one to two weeks in advance, as these slots fill quickly. For smaller, flexible jobs during the week, we can often accommodate you with a few days’ notice, and occasionally on the same day. The earlier you contact us, the more choice of dates and times you will have, and the easier it is for us to plan parking, access and any additional services you might need.
Moving in or out of a flat in Queensbury comes with its own challenges: stairs, lifts, parking restrictions, tight hallways, and neighbours to consider. At Man and Van Queensbury, we specialise in flat removals, handling all of these details so your move is organised, safe and as stress-free as possible.
Our flat removals service is designed specifically for apartments, maisonettes and studios. Whether you are moving within the same building or across London, we plan every stage around access, timings and building rules.
We provide:
Every move is carried out by a trained, professional team using the right equipment to protect your belongings and your building.
Working in Queensbury day in, day out means we understand local roads, parking rules and typical flat layouts. We are used to:
Our local knowledge helps us plan realistic timings, choose the right vehicle size and avoid delays, so your move runs smoothly.
If you own a flat and are moving to a new property, we take care of everything from carefully packing valuable items to dismantling and reassembling furniture. We coordinate timings with your completion or handover to keep your moving day on track.
For tenants, avoiding damage and leaving the property in good condition is crucial. We use floor and door protection, and we work carefully so you can hand the flat back to your landlord with confidence.
We help landlords clear or part-clear flats between tenancies, remove old furniture, or move items into storage ahead of refurbishment. We can work to tight timescales to keep void periods to a minimum.
From staff relocations to moving the contents of serviced apartments, we provide a discreet, efficient service. We can move out-of-hours or at weekends to minimise impact on your operations.
Students moving into or out of Queensbury flats benefit from a compact, cost-effective service. We move boxes, small furniture, and essentials quickly and efficiently, with options for shared loads where appropriate.
Our flat removals service normally covers:
For safety, legal or insurance reasons, we normally cannot carry:
If you are unsure about a particular item, ask us in advance and we will confirm what is possible and how it should be prepared.
You contact us with basic details: addresses, flat floor level, lift access, rough inventory and preferred dates. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the information you give us, explaining what is included so you can compare like-for-like with confidence.
For anything more than a small move, we recommend a short survey. This can be virtual (video call and photos) or onsite. We confirm parking, access, stairways, any dismantling required and the volume of items. This allows us to send the right team, vehicle and equipment.
We offer:
Furniture is protected with padded covers, and we can dismantle beds, wardrobes and tables where needed.
On moving day, we protect floors and doorways, then load in a logical order to make unloading straightforward. Our vehicles are equipped with ties, blankets and trollies. Your goods are covered by goods in transit insurance while in our care.
At your new flat, we place furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify and reassemble any items we dismantled. We work efficiently but carefully, mindful of neighbours and building rules. Before leaving, we check that everything you expected has been unloaded and positioned.
We price flat removals fairly and transparently. Costs depend on:
You will receive a clear breakdown showing what is included: labour, vehicle, travel time and any optional extras. There are no hidden charges; any potential additional costs (for example, waiting time due to key delays) are explained in advance.
Moving yourself or relying on a casual man-and-van might seem cheaper, but it often brings stress, delays and risk of damage. Our professional service offers:
When you consider time off work, vehicle hire, fuel, materials and the risk of damage or injury, a managed flat removal service offers strong value and peace of mind.
Man and Van Queensbury operates to high, consistent standards. We maintain:
We follow clear procedures for loading, securing and handling items, and we document any pre-existing damage where appropriate so everything is transparent.
We treat your belongings and your building with care. This includes:
We also aim to work responsibly. Where possible, we use reusable crates, recyclable packing materials and efficient route planning to reduce unnecessary mileage. If you are clearing a flat, we can help separate items for reuse, donation or responsible disposal.
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or relocating for work, we handle full flat-to-flat moves across Queensbury and beyond. We coordinate with your key collection and handover to keep the day organised.
For businesses, we move furniture, IT equipment and contents from office-style flats or serviced accommodation. We can work outside normal hours and follow your IT or building protocols.
Sometimes moves need to happen quickly, due to changes in tenancy dates or personal circumstances. Subject to availability, we can provide same-day or next-day support, focusing on essential items first if time is tight.
The cost of a flat removal depends on the size of your flat, the volume of items, access at both properties and the distance travelled. Smaller studio or one-bedroom moves may be priced on an hourly basis, while larger flats are usually quoted as a fixed price after a survey. Additional services such as packing, dismantling or storage will affect the total. We always provide a clear, written quotation in advance so you know exactly what is included and can budget with confidence.
Yes, we can often help with same-day or urgent moves in Queensbury, depending on availability. If your dates have changed unexpectedly or you need to be out of your flat at short notice, contact us as early as possible with your details. We will prioritise essential items and plan a practical solution around the time and access you have. While advance booking is always recommended, we do keep some flexibility in our schedule to accommodate urgent situations where we can.
Yes. Your belongings are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles. We also maintain public liability cover for work in and around your property. This insurance is designed to provide a sensible level of protection for typical flat contents. We will explain the cover limits and any exclusions before you book. For particularly high-value or unusual items, we can discuss additional arrangements or advise whether you should notify your own insurer in advance.
Our standard service includes a vehicle of suitable size, a professional moving team, loading, transport and unloading into the rooms you specify. We protect furniture with blankets and covers, and we use ties and equipment to secure items in transit. Optional extras include packing services, dismantling and reassembly, and provision of packing materials. We will detail exactly what is included in your quote so you know what to expect on moving day and can add or remove services to suit your needs and budget.
While a basic man-and-van can work for very small or simple moves, our service is structured, insured and planned specifically for flat removals. We provide trained teams, proper equipment, written quotes and clear timings. We consider access, parking and building rules in advance, and your goods are covered by our insurance. This helps to minimise damage, delays and unexpected costs. In short, we offer the flexibility of a man-and-van with the standards and reliability of a dedicated removals company.
Ideally, you should book as soon as you have a firm moving date, particularly if you are moving at the end of the month or on a weekend when demand is higher. For most flat moves, one to three weeks’ notice is comfortable and gives us time to arrange surveys, parking and packing if required. However, we will always try to accommodate shorter notice where possible. Even if your date is not fixed yet, it is worth getting in touch early to discuss options and provisional availability.
At Man and Van Queensbury, we provide a dependable, well-organised removals service for local moves of all sizes. Whether you are moving a single item across Queensbury or relocating an entire flat or office, you get a punctual, professional team, modern vehicles and full protection for your belongings.
Our man and van service is a flexible, cost-effective option for smaller to medium moves in and around Queensbury. You get a uniformed, trained driver–porter (or a larger crew if needed) plus a clean, equipped van, booked for the time you actually need.
We plan each job around access, parking, and your time frame so everything runs smoothly on the day.
Working daily in Queensbury means we understand local streets, parking restrictions and building layouts. From high-rise flats to terraced houses and business parks, we know how to handle tight stairwells, limited loading bays and busy roads without wasting your time.
We regularly cover moves within Queensbury itself as well as to and from nearby areas and across London or nationwide. That local knowledge helps us choose the right van size, plan the route and avoid delays.
Ideal for smaller home moves, downsizing, or moving specific rooms (lofts, garages, sheds). We carefully protect furniture, white goods and personal items, and can work alongside your own packing where needed.
Perfect for tenants moving between rented flats or houses, often with tight time slots between check-out and check-in. We help minimise stress with efficient loading, careful handling of deposits-at-risk areas (walls, doors, lifts), and punctual arrival.
We assist landlords with end-of-tenancy clearances, removal of unwanted furniture and transport to storage or recycling centres, always working respectfully within building rules and times.
For small offices, shops and clinics, a man and van team is often more than enough. We move desks, chairs, stock, files and IT equipment, coordinating with your team to keep downtime to a minimum.
Students moving to or from Queensbury halls or shared accommodation benefit from our affordable, shared-load options. We’re used to handling compact moves of bags, boxes, bikes and basic furniture.
If you are unsure about a particular item, mention it during your enquiry. We can often accommodate it with the right equipment or advise on a specialist solution.
You contact us with a basic outline of your move: addresses, dates, access details and a rough list of items. We respond with a clear, no-obligation quotation, explaining what is included so you know exactly what to expect.
For anything more than a simple single-item move, we recommend a short virtual survey (video call or photos) or, where needed, an onsite visit. This allows us to assess volumes, staircases, lifts and parking so we can provide the right crew and van size and avoid surprises on the day.
You can choose to pack your own boxes, or for larger moves we can provide a packing service at additional cost. Either way, we advise on labelling, dismantling furniture and protecting fragile items. On the day, we bring blankets, straps and basic protection as standard.
Our trained team loads your possessions systematically, securing them with straps and using moving blankets for protection. We take particular care with doorways, lifts and shared areas to avoid damage. Once loaded, we drive directly to your destination unless otherwise agreed.
At your new address, we unload everything into the rooms you specify. We reassemble any items agreed in advance (such as bed frames) and check that you are satisfied with the placement before we leave. We aim to leave you ready to settle in, not surrounded by chaos.
We keep our pricing straightforward and upfront. Most man and van jobs in Queensbury are priced on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period. For longer-distance moves or clearly defined jobs, we can agree a fixed price.
This transparent approach means you can compare costs with confidence and stay in control of your budget.
Using a professional man and van service is not just about convenience. It often works out better value than hiring a van and doing everything yourself, once you factor in time, risk and potential damage.
Compared with informal or unregistered operators, you gain clear paperwork, agreed terms, and someone accountable if things go wrong.
We operate to recognised industry standards so you can trust us with your belongings.
We will explain the key terms and limits of our insurance when you book, and we are happy to answer any specific questions.
We treat every item as if it were our own. Furniture is protected with blankets; fragile boxes are loaded carefully and secured; and we pay attention to walls, floors and communal areas to avoid scuffs or damage.
We also aim to work as sustainably as possible by:
The result is a service that protects both your belongings and the environment where we can.
Many Queensbury customers use our man and van service for one- or two-bedroom properties, where a full-scale removals crew would be excessive. We handle everything from last-minute packing help to moving awkward furniture up or down tight staircases.
Small and medium businesses use us to move between offices, relocate stock or reconfigure layouts. We can work out-of-hours to reduce disruption and are familiar with access requirements in commercial buildings.
Sometimes plans change at short notice – a tenancy ends unexpectedly or a seller brings a completion date forward. Where availability allows, we offer same-day or next-day man and van services in Queensbury to get you moved quickly yet safely.
Costs vary depending on van size, number of movers, distance and how long the move takes. Most local jobs are charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, which we will confirm in writing before you commit. Longer moves or clearly defined jobs can be priced as a fixed quote. To help you budget, we ask for a brief inventory and access details, then provide a transparent estimate with any potential extras, such as parking or congestion charges, clearly listed.
Yes, subject to availability. We regularly help with short-notice moves in and around Queensbury, particularly for tenants facing imminent check-out dates or urgent office relocations. The earlier you call, the better the chance we can allocate the right van and team. For same-day work, it helps if you can provide photos or a quick video of your items so we can assess the size of the job quickly. Urgent bookings are still fully covered by our standard insurance and procedures.
Yes. Your goods are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles, and we also carry public liability cover for work in and around properties. These policies are designed to cover unforeseen events such as accidents or vehicle incidents. As with any insurance, there are terms, limits and exclusions, which we are happy to explain before you book. For particularly high-value or unusual items, we may recommend additional cover or a specialist service.
Our standard service includes a professional driver–porter (or more staff if booked), a suitably sized van, loading and unloading, and the use of blankets and straps to protect and secure your items. We place furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify at the destination. Optional extras, such as packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, or supply of boxes and materials, can be added on request. All inclusions and any chargeable options are clearly set out in your quotation so there are no surprises.
A basic man-and-van is often just a driver with a vehicle, working informally, sometimes without proper insurance or support. Our service sits firmly in the professional removals category: we provide trained staff, appropriate equipment, documented bookings, and fully insured transport. We also offer surveys, optional packing, dismantling and reassembly, and clear communication before and during the move. In short, you get the flexibility of a man and van with the standards you would expect from an established removals company.
For the best choice of dates and times, especially at month-end and weekends, we recommend booking your Queensbury man and van service at least one to two weeks in advance. However, we understand that moves do not always come with much notice, so we also keep some flexibility for last-minute and urgent jobs. Even if your plans are not finalised, it is worth getting in touch early so we can pencil in a slot and advise on packing, parking and access while you confirm the details.
At Man and Van Queensbury, our removal van service in Queensbury is designed for people who want a smooth, well-organised move handled by experienced professionals. Whether you are moving a single room, a full house or a small office, we provide the right size van, the right team and the right planning to get you moved safely and on time.
Our removal vans operate across Queensbury and the surrounding areas every day, helping local residents and businesses move efficiently. We combine the flexibility of a man-and-van with the standards of a full removals company: careful planning, trained staff, and fully insured transport.
Every job, large or small, is treated with the same attention to detail. We protect your belongings, keep you informed at each stage, and make sure your move is carried out with minimal stress.
Ideal for flat and house moves within Queensbury or further afield. We can supply a single removal van or multiple vehicles and movers, depending on the size of your property and access at both ends.
If you are moving between rented properties, we offer cost-effective, time-efficient moves. We work carefully in communal areas to avoid damage and help you leave your current property in good condition for inspections.
We assist landlords with tenant changeovers, end-of-tenancy clearances, and moving furniture in or out of furnished lets. We can remove unwanted items and transport retained furniture safely to storage or another property.
Our removal vans are ideal for small office relocations, moving stock, equipment or archive boxes. We plan around your trading hours to minimise downtime and ensure that critical items arrive in the right order and in the right rooms.
Students in and around Queensbury benefit from a simple, affordable service for term-time and end-of-year moves. We can move belongings between halls, shared houses, parents’ homes and storage units.
Our removal van service covers most household and office items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise during the quotation or survey stage.
Contact us by phone or online with your moving details: addresses, dates, property size and any special requirements. We ask clear, practical questions to understand access (stairs, lifts, parking), item lists and timings. Based on this, we give a transparent, no-obligation quote, either as a fixed price or hourly rate, depending on the move.
For larger moves or trickier properties, we recommend a survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit in Queensbury. We assess parking, stairways, lifts and large items, and confirm what needs dismantling or special handling. This ensures we allocate the right size removal van, the right number of movers and the right equipment on the day.
You can pack yourself or use our packing service. If you choose self-pack, we can supply quality boxes, tape and wrapping materials. On move day we protect furniture with blankets and covers, and can dismantle and reassemble straightforward items such as bed frames and tables if agreed in advance.
Our trained moving team loads the van systematically, protecting items with padded blankets, straps and floor covers where needed. We make sure heavier items are secured and boxes are stacked safely. Once loaded, we transport your belongings directly to your new address, following the most suitable route and keeping you updated if there are any delays.
At your new property, we unload items into the rooms you specify. We place furniture where you want it and reassemble any pieces we dismantled. We aim to leave you with a functional space, boxes in the right rooms and clear access throughout, so you can start settling in straight away.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing. Our quotes consider:
We will explain whether your move is better suited to a fixed-price quotation or an hourly rate. There are no hidden extras for fuel or standard protective materials; any potential additional charges (such as congestion charges or extra labour time) are discussed clearly in advance.
Hiring a professional removal van service in Queensbury offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using a casual man-with-a-van:
In short, using professionals usually works out better value once you factor in time, risk, and the possibility of damage with DIY moves.
As an established Queensbury removals company, we operate to recognised professional standards:
We are happy to discuss our cover levels and provide evidence of insurance on request. Our aim is to give you confidence that your move is being handled properly from start to finish.
Looking after your belongings is our priority. We use padded blankets, mattress covers and appropriate strapping to secure loads, and we take care around walls, floors and doorways to avoid scuffs and scrapes.
We also consider our environmental impact. Where possible, we re-use strong, good-quality packing materials, offer returnable crate options for businesses, and plan routes efficiently to minimise unnecessary mileage. If you have unwanted but usable items, we can help signpost local donation options in or around Queensbury.
From small flats to family homes, we handle complete household moves across Queensbury and beyond. We can work around completion times and key handovers, and coordinate multiple vans if required.
For small to medium offices, our vans are ideal for moving desks, chairs, IT equipment and files. We label items and rooms clearly so everything arrives where it should, helping you get back to work quickly.
Sometimes moves need to happen at short notice – a last-minute tenancy change, a quick office reshuffle, or an unexpected completion date. Subject to availability, we can often offer same-day or next-day removal van support in Queensbury. Contact us as early as possible and we will do our best to fit you in.
The cost of a removal van in Queensbury depends mainly on the size of the move, distance travelled, number of movers required and any additional services such as packing or dismantling. Smaller local moves may be priced on an hourly basis, while full house moves are often quoted as a fixed price. During your enquiry, we ask detailed questions to provide an accurate, transparent quote with no hidden extras. You will always know what is included before you confirm your booking.
Yes, subject to availability, we can often help with same-day or short-notice moves in Queensbury. Our ability to assist depends on how many vans and teams are already booked, the size of your move and the distance involved. If you need an urgent move, call us as early as possible with your details. We will tell you honestly what we can do, provide a clear quote and, where necessary, suggest practical ways to prioritise essential items first.
Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being loaded, transported and unloaded by our team. We also hold public liability cover for damage to property or third parties. Insurance is designed to sit alongside sensible packing and careful handling, not replace it, so we still take every precaution to avoid damage. We can explain the key terms, any limits or exclusions, and how to declare high-value items when you request your quote.
Our standard removal van service includes the van, fuel, a trained moving team, protective blankets and basic securing equipment. We load your belongings, transport them to your new address and unload them into the rooms you specify. At your request, we can add services such as full or part packing, supply of packing materials and dismantling and reassembly of straightforward furniture. Any additional services will be discussed and clearly listed in your quotation before you decide to go ahead.
While the term “man-and-van” is often used loosely, we operate as a professional removals company. That means trained staff, fully insured vehicles, proper equipment and a structured process from quote to completion. We carry goods in transit and public liability insurance, plan access and loading, and work to agreed timescales. A casual service may be cheaper on paper but usually does not offer the same protection, reliability or care for your belongings and property.
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking your Queensbury removal van at least two to three weeks in advance, especially if you are moving on a Friday, weekend or at the end of the month. However, we understand that moves are not always confirmed early. If your plans are last-minute, contact us as soon as you know your date. We will check availability, keep you updated and do our best to accommodate your schedule.
At Man and Van Queensbury, we provide reliable, well-organised removal services across Queensbury and the surrounding areas. With years of hands-on experience in domestic and commercial moves, we combine local knowledge with professional standards to move your belongings safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption.
Our removals team handles everything from single-room flat moves to full family homes and busy offices. We plan each move carefully, use the right equipment, and protect your property and belongings at every stage. Every job is carried out by a trained, uniformed, professional crew, and your items are covered by goods in transit insurance for added peace of mind.
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or moving elsewhere in Queensbury, we manage full house removals, including careful handling of furniture, appliances and personal belongings. We can also provide dismantling and reassembly for larger items.
Flat and house moves for tenants often come with tight deadlines and access restrictions. We are used to navigating stairwells, lifts and limited parking, helping renters move out on time while protecting both your belongings and the landlord’s property.
We assist landlords with tenant changeover removals, partial clearances and moving furniture between properties. We work efficiently and respectfully, helping you get properties ready for new tenants quickly.
Our office and commercial removals cover everything from small offices to retail units and workshops. We can move desks, IT equipment, stock and archives, aiming to minimise downtime so you can get back to work swiftly.
For students moving to or from Queensbury, we offer cost-effective student removals, perfect for moving boxes, clothes, small furniture and study equipment between halls, shared houses and storage.
We can safely move most household and office items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded or require special arrangements:
If you are unsure about a particular item, please mention it during your enquiry so we can confirm what is possible.
You can contact us by phone, email or online form. We will ask a few key questions: where you are moving from and to, type and size of property, approximate volume of items, dates and any access issues. Based on this information we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, outlining what is included and any optional extras.
For larger moves or more complex properties, we recommend a survey. This can be done via video call or an in-person visit in Queensbury. The survey allows us to assess parking, staircases, lifts and item volumes accurately, so we can send the right size vehicle and team, avoiding delays on moving day.
We offer both full packing services and part-packing services, or you can pack yourself. If we are packing, we bring strong cartons, wrapping paper and protective materials, carefully packing and labelling each box. We can also dismantle beds, wardrobes and other furniture as agreed. If you are self-packing, we provide guidance on how to pack safely and efficiently.
On moving day, our trained removals team arrives on time, protects floors and doorways where needed, and begins loading. We use blankets, straps, and appropriate lifting equipment to protect your belongings and prevent damage. Once everything is securely loaded, we transport your goods directly to your new address using our well-maintained, purpose-equipped vehicles.
At your new property, we unload items carefully and place them in the rooms you specify. We reassemble any furniture we dismantled as part of the service and position larger pieces where you want them. Before we leave, we check that everything has been unloaded and that you are happy with the placement.
We believe in clear, honest pricing. Our quotes take into account:
Prices are usually given on a fixed-fee basis for the agreed work, so you know the cost in advance. Any potential extra charges, such as additional stops or waiting time, are explained before you book. There are no surprise add-ons on moving day.
Hiring a professional removals team in Queensbury offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using a casual man-and-van:
While DIY may seem cheaper at first glance, the risk of damage, injury, vehicle hire issues and time lost often outweighs the savings. A professional removals service gives you structure and peace of mind.
Man and Van Queensbury operates to clear professional standards to protect you and your belongings:
If you have particularly high-value items, we can discuss specific cover and handling arrangements in advance.
We aim to move your belongings with the same care we would use for our own. This includes:
We are also conscious of our environmental impact. Where possible we:
Our aim is a smooth, well-managed move that is both careful and responsible.
From terraced houses and flats to detached homes, we regularly help families and individuals move in and out of Queensbury. We are familiar with local streets, parking arrangements and common access challenges, allowing us to plan ahead and avoid delays.
We support businesses relocating within Queensbury or to other parts of the region. Moves can be scheduled outside normal working hours where possible, to reduce disruption. Our team understands the importance of handling IT, documents and equipment with care and discretion.
Sometimes moves come up at short notice due to changes in completion dates, tenancy issues or personal circumstances. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or urgent removal services in Queensbury. We will always be honest about what is achievable while still maintaining standards of safety and care.
The cost depends on several factors: property size, volume of belongings, distance between addresses, access conditions and whether you need packing or dismantling services. For smaller local moves, we may quote a half-day or hourly rate with a minimum charge. For full house or office moves, we usually provide a fixed-price quote based on a survey. The best way to get an accurate figure is to contact us with a brief description of your move so we can tailor a clear, no-obligation quotation.
We can often accommodate short-notice or urgent moves in Queensbury, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. For smaller flat or student moves, same-day service is sometimes possible if you contact us early in the day. Larger house or office moves generally require more planning, but we will always do our best to help. If we cannot fit you in safely and realistically, we will say so clearly and offer the nearest available alternative date or partial solutions.
Yes. Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles, and we hold public liability cover for work at your properties. This provides protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage or loss. Insurance operates within defined terms and limits, which we can outline on request. For unusually high-value items, we may suggest additional measures or specialist cover. We always handle your goods with care to minimise the chance of needing to rely on insurance at all.
Our standard removal service includes a suitable vehicle, a trained removals team, loading, secure transport and unloading to your new property. We place items in the rooms you specify and handle normal lifting and carrying. Optional extras include packing, supply of packing materials, furniture dismantling and reassembly, and additional stops such as storage units. All inclusions and any optional services are clearly listed in your quote so you know exactly what to expect on moving day.
A basic man-and-van often focuses on transport only, with limited labour, equipment and cover. Our service is a structured, professional removals operation: trained moving teams, appropriate vehicles, protective materials, goods in transit insurance and public liability cover. We plan the move, assess access, and handle furniture and fragile items properly. While a casual man-and-van may suit very small, low-risk jobs, a professional removals service is usually the safer and more reliable choice for full home or office moves.
Ideally, book as soon as you have a likely moving date, particularly if you are moving at the end of the month, over weekends or during peak seasons such as summer. For standard house moves, one to three weeks’ notice is usually comfortable, but we can often help with shorter notice if our schedule allows. Even if your date is not yet fixed, it is worth contacting us early so we can note your provisional plans and advise on availability and preparation.
At Man and Van Queensbury, we provide flexible, secure storage solutions for households and businesses across Queensbury and the surrounding areas. Whether you need short-term storage between moves or a longer-term option while you renovate, our professional, fully insured service keeps your belongings safe and accessible.
Our storage service is designed around how people actually move and live in Queensbury. Instead of you hiring a van, lifting everything yourself, and finding a storage unit, we handle the whole process:
You only pay for the space and time you need, with clear guidance from our team so you are not overpaying for unused storage.
Working daily in and around Queensbury, we understand the challenges of local moves and storage needs – from tight terraced streets to top-floor flats and busy commercial premises. Our drivers know the area well, so collections and deliveries are planned sensibly around traffic, parking restrictions and access.
Because we operate as both a removals and storage provider, we can coordinate your timings precisely – for example, moving you out of one property, storing your goods for a short period, and then delivering to your new address in or out of Queensbury.
Perfect if you are selling, downsizing or renovating. Store furniture, white goods, boxes, seasonal items and sentimental belongings while you get your new home ready, without clutter or damage risk.
If your tenancy dates do not line up or you are moving between furnished and unfurnished properties, our storage helps bridge the gap. We can collect just before you hand back the keys and deliver on your new move-in date.
Use our storage to hold furniture between tenancies, keep show-home items off-site, or temporarily remove contents during refurbishment. We offer flexible terms to suit changing tenancy schedules.
Ideal for excess stock, seasonal displays, archived files, office furniture and equipment. Our team can dismantle and reassemble items, so your staff stay focused on their work while we handle the logistics.
Students in and around Queensbury can avoid dragging belongings home every term. Store your essentials safely over the summer or during placements, and we will collect and redeliver to your new address when you return.
We handle most everyday household and office items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we cannot store:
If you are unsure about a particular item, ask us in advance – we will advise on what can be stored and how best to protect it.
Contact us with a brief description of what you need to store, your current address in Queensbury, and your likely storage dates. We will ask a few simple questions to estimate the volume and suggest the most cost-effective storage option. You will receive a clear, no-obligation quote.
For larger moves or business storage, we may arrange a virtual or onsite survey. This lets us see access, parking and the items to be stored, so we can allocate the right vehicle, number of movers and packing materials. Accurate surveying helps avoid surprises on the day and keeps costs transparent.
On your collection day, our trained team arrives with protective materials. We can offer a full packing service, a fragile-only packing service, or work with your pre-packed boxes. Furniture is wrapped and, where necessary, dismantled for safer storage. Everything is labelled clearly so redelivery and placement are straightforward.
We load systematically, using padded covers, straps and floor protection where needed. Our vehicles are clean, well-maintained and covered by goods in transit insurance. Your belongings are transported directly to secure storage facilities, with careful handling at every stage.
At the storage facility, your goods are unloaded into the allocated unit or container. We stack items sensibly to prevent crushing and to allow for access if you need certain things sooner. When you are ready, we arrange redelivery: our team will bring everything back, unload and place items in the rooms you choose.
We price our storage service based on:
You will receive a clear breakdown showing collection, storage and redelivery costs separately where applicable. There are no hidden charges for standard access or basic handling. If your needs change – for example, storing for longer than planned – we will explain any cost changes upfront.
Hiring a casual van or doing everything yourself can seem cheaper but often leads to damage, stress and multiple trips. Our professional storage service offers:
This reduces the risk of breakages, injuries and unnecessary hire costs, while giving you peace of mind that your belongings are properly protected.
As a responsible removals and storage company, we operate with:
We will explain how our cover works, any limits that apply, and what you can do to ensure declared values are accurate. You are welcome to ask for written confirmation of our insurance details before booking.
We handle your belongings as if they were our own, using appropriate wrapping, padded covers and careful stacking to avoid pressure points and rubbing. Where possible, we use reusable protective materials and sturdy crates to cut down on waste.
We also plan routes sensibly around Queensbury and beyond to reduce unnecessary mileage and fuel use. When we recommend packing materials, we favour recyclable or reusable options and encourage customers to reuse boxes where they remain safe and strong.
If your sale completes before your purchase, we can move everything out, store it safely and deliver on your new completion date. This avoids rushing, overcrowding friends’ garages or juggling multiple self-storage trips.
When refitting or relocating an office, we can store desks, filing, IT equipment and stock while work is completed. Our team can return in stages if you are phasing your move, so disruption to staff is kept to a minimum.
If you need to move out quickly – perhaps due to a sudden tenancy change, water damage or other urgent issue – we can often arrange rapid collection and secure short-term storage while you sort out your next steps.
Costs depend on three main factors: how much space you need, how long you need it for, and the collection/delivery locations. We usually price by volume (in cubic feet or metres) and then apply a weekly or monthly storage rate. Collection and redelivery are quoted separately so you can see exactly what you are paying for. Once we know roughly what you have and your dates, we will give you a clear, itemised quote with no hidden extras.
Where our schedule allows, we can often arrange same-day or next-day storage for urgent situations in and around Queensbury. If you need rapid help, call us with as much detail as you can about your address, access and what needs storing. We will check vehicle and team availability and give you a realistic time window. Urgent bookings may be limited by existing commitments, but we always try to find a practical solution or offer the earliest possible slot.
Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while we are moving them, and the storage facility carries its own insurance for the building. We recommend you also keep your own contents insurance in place where possible, as policies can differ on limits and specific exclusions. We will explain exactly what our cover includes, and you can ask for our insurance details in writing. If you have particularly high-value items, let us know so we can advise on the best approach.
Our standard service includes collection from your address, careful loading, transport to secure storage and unloading into the storage unit or container. We provide basic protective materials such as blankets and covers, and our trained team will handle normal lifting and stacking. Optional extras include full or partial packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and staged redeliveries. We will list clearly what is included in your quote, so you know exactly what to expect on the day.
A casual man-and-van usually offers transport only, with limited or no insurance, basic equipment and little accountability if things go wrong. Our service is a structured removals and storage solution: trained movers, goods in transit insurance, proper protective materials and coordinated planning with the storage facility. We take responsibility for your items from collection to final redelivery, which significantly reduces the risk of damage, missed timings and unexpected extra costs.
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking 1–2 weeks in advance, especially during busy moving periods such as month-end and summer. However, we understand that storage needs can arise suddenly, so we will always try to accommodate shorter notice where our schedule permits. As soon as you know there may be a gap between properties or a need to clear space, get in touch – early planning usually means better options and smoother logistics.
At Man and Van Queensbury, we provide a dedicated Packing and Boxes service in Queensbury, designed to protect your belongings and make your move smoother and less stressful. With years of hands-on removals experience, we know that good packing is the difference between a trouble-free move and a damaged delivery.
Working day in, day out across Queensbury and the surrounding areas, we understand the local housing stock, parking issues, and common moving challenges. Whether you are moving from a terraced house near the high street, a flat in a converted property, or a local business premises, our professional team chooses the right boxes, wrapping and techniques for your specific situation.
Because we are local to Queensbury, we can often respond quickly, offer flexible appointment times, and provide short-notice support when your moving date changes.
Our service is suitable for almost anyone planning a move in or out of Queensbury, including:
We offer a complete range of professional packing services and materials in Queensbury:
We can usually pack and box:
For safety, legal or insurance reasons, some items are excluded from standard packing, or require special arrangements:
We will always discuss any unusual or specialist items during your survey so you know exactly what is and isn’t covered.
You contact Man and Van Queensbury with your move details, including your addresses, dates and the level of packing support you need. We ask a few focused questions about the size of your property and any fragile or specialist items. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining the cost of packing, materials and any related removals services.
For larger or more complex moves, we arrange a virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to assess volume, access, and any items requiring extra care. The survey ensures we bring the right number of boxes and the correct packing materials, and that we allocate enough trained staff on the day. It also helps us confirm or refine your quotation so there are no surprises later.
On the agreed day, our professional packers arrive on time with all materials. We protect floors where needed, then work methodically through your property. Fragile items are individually wrapped, boxes are clearly labelled by room and contents, and heavy items are packed safely to avoid crushing. If we are also handling your move, we pack in a way that speeds up loading and unloading at the other end.
If you book our removals service alongside packing, our removals team will load your packed boxes and furniture onto our vehicles. Everything is secured using ties, blankets and padding to avoid movement in transit. Your goods are protected by our goods in transit insurance while being transported to your new property or storage facility.
At the destination, we unload and place boxes into the correct rooms according to the labels. This makes your unpacking far quicker and more manageable. Where agreed, we can also provide an unpacking service, taking items out of boxes and removing waste packaging for recycling or reuse.
We believe in clear, honest pricing. Our packing and boxes costs in Queensbury are based on:
We typically offer fixed-price quotes for packing services, so you know in advance what you will pay. There are no hidden charges for tape or basic materials – these are included in your agreed price. Any optional extras will be clearly listed so you can choose what best suits your budget.
Many people start packing themselves and quickly realise how time-consuming and physically demanding it is. Using our trained packers in Queensbury offers several advantages over DIY or a casual man-and-van:
While a basic man-and-van might just turn up with a van and a few old blankets, our team provides a complete, fully insured service built around protecting your belongings and your property.
As a professional removals company in Queensbury, we operate to high standards and back our work with proper cover:
We are happy to explain our cover in detail and provide documentation on request, so you can make an informed decision.
We treat your possessions as if they were our own. That means careful handling, appropriate padding, and secure stacking of boxes so nothing is crushed or exposed. Floors, doorways and banisters can be protected on request to avoid scuffs and marks during packing and moving.
We are also mindful of sustainability. Wherever possible, we:
For families and individuals moving home, we can take over the whole packing job or just handle the rooms you find most challenging, such as the kitchen, loft or garage. This helps keep your move on schedule and reduces last-minute stress.
We work with local businesses to pack offices, shops and small warehouses. Files, IT equipment and stock are packed in a structured way so they can be quickly located and set up at your new premises, minimising downtime.
Sometimes moves are arranged at short notice, due to changes in completion dates, new tenancies or emergency situations. When our schedule allows, we can provide rapid packing support in Queensbury, bringing enough trained staff to get you ready to move on time.
Costs vary depending on the size of your property, how many items you have and whether you choose full or part packing. As a guide, a small flat will naturally cost less than a large family home, and supplying boxes only is cheaper than a full packing service. We provide a tailored, written quotation after discussing your needs, so you know exactly what is included. There are no hidden fees for tape or standard materials; everything is itemised clearly from the start.
Where our schedule allows, we can often help with urgent or short-notice packing jobs in Queensbury. Same-day service is not guaranteed, but we will always be honest about our availability and do our best to accommodate you. If we cannot offer full packing at very short notice, we may still be able to supply boxes and materials quickly, or provide a part-packing service to help with the most time-critical rooms and fragile items.
Yes. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being transported in our vehicles, and we also carry public liability cover. These policies are designed to protect you in the unlikely event of damage or loss. There are some exclusions and limits, especially for very high-value items, which we explain before you book. We always recommend you highlight any particularly valuable or irreplaceable items so we can agree the best way to handle them.
Our standard service includes supply of quality boxes, packing paper, tape and other basic materials, plus professional packers to wrap and box your belongings as agreed. We label all boxes clearly by room and general contents to assist with unloading and unpacking. Optional extras include unpacking at your new home or office and removal of used boxes afterwards. Hazardous items, perishable goods and certain high-value items are excluded or handled by special arrangement, which we will always discuss ahead of time.
A basic man-and-van service typically offers transport only, with minimal packing support and limited or no insurance. Our approach is different: we provide trained staff, purpose-made packing materials, structured packing plans and appropriate insurance cover. We focus on protecting your belongings as well as simply moving them. For many customers, this reduces breakages, stress and time off work, and ultimately represents better value than a cheaper, less comprehensive option.
Ideally, we recommend booking as soon as you have a likely moving date, especially during busy periods such as month-end and school holidays. Two to three weeks’ notice usually gives the best choice of dates and allows us to schedule a survey if needed. That said, we regularly help clients on shorter notice in Queensbury. If your plans are uncertain, we can pencil in a provisional date and adjust it once your completion or tenancy is confirmed.
At Man and Van Queensbury, we provide reliable, carefully planned office removals throughout Queensbury and the surrounding areas. As a local, experienced removals company, we understand how important it is to move your business with minimal disruption, protecting your equipment, data and staff wellbeing at every step.
Our office removals service is designed for businesses that want a professional, structured move rather than a casual man-and-van job. We handle everything from small office clear-outs to full multi-floor relocations, always focusing on:
Every move is carried out by our own trained team, using appropriate equipment, protective materials and vehicles, backed by goods in transit and public liability insurance.
Although this service focuses on commercial moves, we regularly support a wide range of clients in and around Queensbury:
If you are unsure whether your move falls under office removals or standard domestic removals, we are happy to advise and point you towards the most suitable option.
Our Queensbury office removals team handles most typical office contents, including:
To protect your property and comply with regulations, some items are excluded or require prior agreement:
If you have unusual or specialist equipment, let us know during the quotation stage so we can plan safely and realistically.
You contact Man and Van Queensbury with basic details: current address, destination, rough inventory, dates and any access issues. We provide an initial estimate and discuss your priorities – for example, weekend moves, out-of-hours relocation or staged moves across several days.
For office removals, we usually recommend a survey. This can be done by video call or in person, depending on the size and complexity of the move. We measure key items, review access routes, parking and lift use, and identify any special handling needs. Following the survey, we confirm a clear, itemised quotation.
We offer flexible packing options to suit your budget and workload:
We label boxes and furniture clearly to ensure your new office layout is easy to set up and your team can get back to work quickly.
On moving day, our professional team arrives at the agreed time. We protect floors, walls and lifts where necessary, dismantle agreed furniture and securely wrap IT equipment and fragile items. Everything is loaded methodically into our vehicles, using straps, blankets and trolleys to keep items safe while in transit.
At your new premises, we unload in line with your floor plan, placing desks, chairs and labelled boxes into the correct rooms or zones. We can reassemble agreed furniture and assist with basic positioning so your staff can reconnect equipment and start working again as soon as possible.
We believe in straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Office removals are typically priced based on:
Once we have carried out a survey, we provide a clear written quotation that sets out what is included and any optional extras. If you need to keep to a specific budget, tell us at the outset and we can propose a phased or part-service move where you handle some elements yourselves.
Using a cheap van and a couple of helpers might seem attractive, but for offices it often leads to downtime, damaged equipment and staff injuries. Our professional office removals service offers:
This is particularly important when moving confidential files, heavy equipment, or when you share space with other businesses in the same building.
Man and Van Queensbury operates to recognised professional standards for removals and transport:
We can provide copies of our insurance certificates upon request. Our teams work in uniform, and our vehicles are kept clean, well-maintained and suitable for business moves.
We treat your workplace and equipment with the same care we would our own. This means:
We also take a responsible approach to sustainability. Wherever possible, we reuse packing materials, offer crate hire instead of single-use boxes, and can assist with responsible disposal or recycling of unwanted furniture and equipment as part of a planned clearance.
If your Queensbury business is growing, we can manage a staged move so teams remain operational while departments are relocated in phases. This helps keep customer service and internal operations running smoothly.
Sometimes you do not need a full relocation – just help reshuffling teams between floors or rooms. We can assist with internal moves, furniture changes and reconfigurations outside your normal working hours.
Lease issues, building works or unexpected events can mean moving at short notice. Subject to availability, we can provide urgent office removals within Queensbury, focusing on essential equipment and files first so you can continue operating.
Costs vary depending on the size of the move, distance, access and how much packing support you require. A small office move may be priced on a half-day or full-day rate, while larger relocations are usually quoted after a detailed survey. We provide a clear, written quotation outlining labour, vehicles, packing materials and any optional extras. There are no hidden charges, and we are happy to discuss ways to keep to a particular budget, such as self-packing or moving in stages.
Same-day or urgent moves are sometimes possible, particularly within Queensbury and nearby areas, but they depend on our existing schedule and the scale of the job. For smaller offices or partial moves, we can often respond quickly. Larger or multi-floor relocations normally require at least some planning time. If you have an urgent requirement, contact us as soon as possible with full details so we can advise on realistic timings and priorities, such as moving essential IT and documents first.
We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your office contents while they are being moved in our vehicles, and public liability insurance for work carried out in and around your premises. This offers protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage or incidents on site. We can share policy details and limits on request, and we always recommend that businesses check their own insurance too, particularly for high-value specialist equipment or servers that may require additional cover.
Our standard service includes loading, transport and unloading of your office furniture, IT equipment and boxed contents between agreed locations. We also include basic protection, such as blankets and wrapping for vulnerable items. Optional extras include packing services, supply of boxes or crates, dismantling and reassembling desks, and disposal or recycling of unwanted items. During the quotation stage, we clarify exactly what is included so you can see where you may wish to add or remove services to suit your needs and budget.
A professional office removal is planned and managed from start to finish, using trained staff, suitable equipment and formal insurance cover. We assess access, agree a schedule, label and protect items and work to minimise downtime for your team. A casual man-and-van typically offers only loading and driving, with limited planning, less protection for your equipment and often no formal insurance. For businesses, the risk of damage, delays and disruption is usually higher with an informal service.
For small offices, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance where possible. For larger or more complex moves, especially where you need weekend or evening work, four to six weeks’ notice is ideal. This gives us time to schedule surveys, plan logistics, reserve parking and coordinate with building management if required. However, we understand that circumstances change, and we will always do our best to accommodate short-notice moves when our diary allows.
At Man and Van Queensbury, our Man with a Van service is designed for people who want a reliable, professional move without the cost and complexity of a full-scale removal. Whether you are moving a few items across Queensbury or relocating a small home or office, we provide a safe, efficient and fully insured service handled by experienced local movers.
Our Man with a Van service is a flexible option that sits between hiring a DIY van and booking a large removals crew. You get a dedicated vehicle plus at least one trained, professional mover to handle the lifting, loading and transport.
Every job is carried out by a fully insured, experienced driver-mover who knows how to protect your belongings and handle awkward access, stairs and tight parking around Queensbury.
Working day in, day out in and around Queensbury means we understand local roads, traffic patterns, parking restrictions and building layouts. This local knowledge helps us:
We regularly help customers across Queensbury and the surrounding areas with everything from quick single-item moves to full van loads. Our aim is to make your move as simple and predictable as possible.
Ideal when you do not need a full removal crew but still want a professional service. Perfect for downsizing, moving selected items into storage, or transporting bulky furniture between properties.
Flats and rented houses often suit a Man with a Van job. We handle beds, sofas, white goods and boxes, while you can move lighter items in your own car if you prefer. This keeps costs manageable while still having expert help.
We help landlords with quick, tidy moves when furnishing or clearing properties. From delivering new furniture to removing old items, we provide a prompt, respectful service that fits around check-ins and check-outs.
For smaller offices, shops and home-based businesses, a Man with a Van is an efficient way to move stock, equipment, desks and filing cabinets. We can work outside normal hours to keep disruption to a minimum.
Student moves are a core part of what we do. We offer affordable, straightforward transport for your belongings between home, halls and shared accommodation, with careful handling of computers, TVs and personal items.
If you are unsure about a particular item, mention it when you enquire and we will confirm whether we can move it safely and legally.
You contact us with your moving details – addresses, dates, approximate list of items and any access notes (stairs, lifts, parking). Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, normally either fixed-price or hourly, depending on the job.
For most Man with a Van moves, a quick virtual survey (photos or video call) is enough to assess volume, access and any special requirements. For more complex jobs, we can arrange an onsite visit in or around Queensbury to make sure we allocate the right van size and manpower.
You can choose to pack your own boxes, or we can provide professional packing as an optional extra. We supply quality materials such as boxes, tape, bubble wrap and protective bags for mattresses and sofas. On the day, we wrap and protect furniture, TVs and fragile items to minimise the risk of damage.
Our trained team loads the van systematically, using blankets, straps and trolleys to protect your belongings and the property. We make sure weight is balanced and items are secured for transit. Then we transport everything directly to the destination, using sensible, safe routes and driving standards.
At the new address, we unload and place items into the rooms you specify. We work carefully to avoid damage to walls, floors and doorways and are happy to move items around within reason so that you are satisfied with where everything is left.
We believe in clear, up-front pricing with no hidden extras. Man with a Van jobs in Queensbury are usually priced in one of two ways:
Your quote will state what is included: number of movers, van size, estimated time and any additional services such as packing, materials or extra stops. Parking charges and congestion or toll fees, if applicable, will also be made clear in advance.
Hiring a van yourself or using a casual contact can appear cheaper, but it often comes with hidden risks and effort. With Man and Van Queensbury you benefit from:
A professional service means you are not relying on borrowed vans, friends’ availability or guesswork about how to move heavy or fragile items safely.
We operate to clear, professional standards so you know your belongings and property are protected.
We are always happy to discuss what is covered and provide details of our policies on request.
We treat every move as if it were our own belongings being transported. That means careful preparation, protective materials and responsible planning.
Where possible, we recycle packaging and encourage customers to reuse or donate boxes once they have finished with them.
For smaller properties – studios, one-bed and some two-bed homes – our Man with a Van service is often all that is needed. We can complete the whole move in one or two trips, keeping disruption and cost to a minimum while still giving you a professional experience.
When a full commercial move is not necessary, a Man with a Van is ideal for relocating a few desks, computers and filing cabinets, or for moving surplus stock between premises or into storage. We can schedule work outside peak trading hours.
Last-minute key dates, landlord deadlines or failed transport plans are common. Where availability allows, we offer same-day or short-notice Man with a Van support in Queensbury. We prioritise clear communication so you know exactly when to expect us and how long the job is likely to take.
Costs depend mainly on the size of the load, distance between addresses, access (stairs, parking, lifts) and whether you need one or two movers. For local work in Queensbury, we often charge an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, or a fixed fee for clearly defined jobs. To keep costs down, have items packed and ready, and let us know about any awkward pieces or access issues in advance. We will always provide a clear, written quotation before you confirm.
Where our schedule allows, we do offer same-day and short-notice Man with a Van services in Queensbury. Availability will depend on existing bookings, the size of van required and how far we need to travel. If you need urgent help, call or message with as much detail as you can – addresses, rough inventory and ideal time window. We will confirm quickly whether we can assist, suggest realistic timings, and give a clear price before you commit.
Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicle, subject to policy terms and declared values. We also hold public liability cover, which protects against accidental damage to third-party property or injury arising from our work. Insurance is not a substitute for good packing, so we still recommend using strong boxes and proper protection for fragile items. We are happy to explain what is and is not covered before you book.
Our standard service includes a suitable van, a professional driver-mover (or team, if requested), loading, safe transport and unloading into the rooms you choose. We supply moving blankets and securing straps as standard. Optional extras include packing services, packing materials, furniture disassembly and reassembly, and additional drop-off or collection points. Parking costs, congestion or toll charges, if applicable, will be explained in advance so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Our full removals service is designed for larger moves and usually involves a bigger vehicle, a larger team, and more comprehensive planning and packing support. The Man with a Van option is more compact and flexible, suited to smaller loads or shorter distances. Both services are fully insured and carried out by trained staff. If you are unsure which you need, tell us what you are moving and we will recommend the most suitable and cost-effective option.
For the best choice of dates and times, especially at month-end and weekends, we recommend booking your Man with a Van in Queensbury one to two weeks in advance. However, we understand that moves are not always planned that far ahead. If you need help at short notice, contact us and we will check the diary for the earliest available slot. Once you are happy with the quote, we confirm your booking and reserve the van and team for your chosen time.
Man and Van Queensbury is a local, experienced removals company providing reliable, well-organised moves for homes and businesses across Queensbury and the surrounding areas. We combine the flexibility of a man and van with the planning, protection and accountability you expect from a professional removals firm.
We handle moves of all sizes, from single items to full properties. Every job is carried out by trained, professional movers using the right vehicles, equipment and protective materials. Our aim is simple: a calm, well-planned move with your belongings arriving on time and in the same condition they left.
Working day in, day out in Queensbury means we know the area well: parking restrictions, tight streets, busy times and common access issues. That local knowledge lets us plan routes, vehicle sizes and timings properly, reducing delays and stress on moving day.
We regularly move customers within Queensbury, as well as to and from nearby areas and across Greater London and the UK. Whether you are upsizing locally or relocating further afield, we can coordinate everything from your current address to your new front door.
If you are selling or buying in Queensbury, we provide a structured, fully planned move. We can dismantle and reassemble standard furniture, protect flooring and banisters, and work alongside your completion times so you are ready when the keys are released.
For tenants moving between rented properties, we focus on minimising disruption and avoiding damage so you can protect your deposit. We are used to stairs, lifts, narrow hallways and timed building access slots.
We assist landlords with tenant changeover clearances, light removals between properties and moving furniture in or out of furnished lets. Time-sensitive moves can usually be scheduled around cleaning and inventory checks.
Local businesses trust us for office relocations, shop floor rearrangements and moving stock or equipment. We can work out of hours or at weekends by arrangement to keep downtime to a minimum.
Students in and around Queensbury use us for small, budget-conscious moves. We can move boxed belongings, desks, beds and personal items between halls, shared houses and storage with clear, predictable pricing.
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, certain items are excluded:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we can advise during your survey.
You contact us with your moving dates, addresses and a rough idea of what needs moving. We ask a few practical questions about access, property size and any special items. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote explaining what is included.
For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit in Queensbury. We check parking, stairs, lifts and item volumes so we can send the right size van, the right number of movers and plenty of protective materials.
You can pack your own belongings, or we can provide a professional packing service. Our team uses strong cartons, bubble wrap and wrapping materials to protect fragile items. Larger furniture is wrapped with blankets and covers, and we can dismantle standard beds and wardrobes if needed.
On moving day, our trained team arrives on time, walks through the plan with you and starts loading systematically. Items are protected, stacked and secured carefully in the van to prevent movement in transit. We then transport your goods via the most efficient route from Queensbury to your new address.
At the destination, we unload room by room, placing boxes and furniture where you need them. We reassemble any items we dismantled as part of the agreed service and do a final check with you before we leave, ensuring nothing has been missed.
We believe removal pricing should be easy to understand. Our quotes are based on:
You will receive a clear breakdown showing what is included so you can compare us fairly with other removal companies in Queensbury. There are no hidden charges: any potential additional costs (for example, waiting time outside agreed hours) are explained in advance.
Hiring a van yourself or using an untrained casual service can look cheaper at first glance, but often costs more in time, effort and risk. With Man and Van Queensbury you benefit from:
In short, you gain accountability, protection and a far smoother moving day.
We operate to clear standards so you know your move is in safe hands:
Details of cover limits and any exclusions are provided with your quote and terms, and we are happy to answer questions about specific items or circumstances.
We treat your belongings and property with the same care we would our own. Floors, doors and banisters can be protected where needed, and furniture is wrapped and secured properly for transport.
Where possible, we use reusable protective materials and durable crates. We aim to minimise waste by reusing cartons in good condition and planning routes efficiently to cut unnecessary mileage. If you have unwanted furniture in usable condition, we can often suggest local charities or recycling options in or near Queensbury.
From studio flats to family homes, we manage complete house moves including packing, dismantling and reassembly where required. We coordinate timing with your key collection and work around common issues like permit parking and busy stairwells.
We move small to medium offices, retail spaces and local businesses. Desks, chairs, filing systems and IT equipment are handled carefully and labelled so you can get set up again quickly. Weekend and evening moves are available by prior arrangement.
Circumstances change: chain issues, last-minute lets, or urgent clear-outs. When our schedule allows, we provide same-day or next-day removals in Queensbury. Being realistic about what can be done at short notice, we will always advise honestly about timescales and options.
Costs vary depending on property size, distance, access and the level of service you need. A small local flat move will usually be at the lower end, while a full family home moving across the country will cost more. We price each move individually based on a discussion or survey, so you only pay for the resources genuinely required. There are no hidden charges; everything is itemised in your quote so you can plan your budget with confidence.
Where our schedule allows, we can often help with same-day or urgent moves in and around Queensbury. Availability depends on how many crews and vehicles are already booked, so it is always best to call as early as possible. For urgent moves we may need to keep the service more streamlined, focusing on essential items first. We will explain clearly what can be achieved within the time and budget you have, so expectations are realistic on both sides.
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are in our care, as well as public liability cover for accidental damage to third-party property. This is not a substitute for your own home or business insurance, but an additional layer of protection. Policy limits and exclusions (for example, for highly valuable or fragile items not packed properly) are explained with your quote. If you have particularly high-value items, let us know so we can discuss the best way to protect them.
Our standard service includes the vehicle, fuel, a trained removals team, protective blankets and covers, loading at your old address, secure transport and unloading at your new property. We place items in the rooms you choose and can dismantle and reassemble straightforward furniture if agreed in advance. Optional extras include full or partial packing, supply of boxes and materials, and disposal or recycling of certain unwanted items. Everything that is and is not included is clearly listed on your written quote.
A casual man-and-van may simply offer a driver and vehicle with limited protection, planning or cover if something goes wrong. We operate as a structured removals company: trained movers, planned loading, proper protective materials, written terms and insurance. You gain clear communication, accountability and a team used to handling entire properties, not just odd items. For simple, very small moves a basic service may suffice, but for most households and businesses, professional removals significantly reduce risk and stress.
For the best choice of dates, we recommend booking as soon as you have a firm moving day, especially if you are moving at month-end, during school holidays or on a Friday. For local Queensbury moves, one to three weeks’ notice is ideal, but we can sometimes accommodate shorter notice, particularly midweek. If your date is not yet fixed, we can provide a provisional quote and then confirm availability once your plans are final. The earlier you contact us, the more options we can offer.
At Man and Van Queensbury, we provide straightforward, reliable removals across Queensbury and the surrounding areas. As local removals professionals, we handle everything from small flat moves to full family homes and office relocations, always with careful planning and clear communication.
Our removals service is designed to take the pressure off moving day. We supply the vehicle, the equipment, and a trained team to move your belongings safely from A to B. Whether you are moving a few items locally or relocating an entire property, we tailor our approach to suit your move, your access, and your timescales.
Every move is carried out by trained, professional movers who are used to tight staircases, awkward furniture, and busy streets. We protect your belongings, your property, and your schedule.
Operating day in, day out in Queensbury means we understand the area: parking restrictions, peak traffic times, and the quirks of local streets and estates. This local knowledge helps us plan realistic arrival times, secure the right parking for the van, and choose routes that avoid unnecessary delays.
Whether you are moving within Queensbury, into the area, or out to another part of London or the UK, we bring that local familiarity to your move, keeping everything as smooth and predictable as possible.
From studio apartments to large family homes, we offer full household removals. We’re used to handling complete contents, including fragile items, garden furniture, and loft storage. If needed, we can also arrange packing and dismantling of furniture.
Tenants in flats, house shares, and rental houses often need a flexible, cost-effective service. We can help with part-loads, multiple pick-up or drop-off points, and careful moves that respect check-out inventories and avoid damage to walls, floors, and fixtures.
Landlords use us for void property clearances, quick tenant changeovers, and moving furniture between properties. We work to tight timelines and can coordinate access directly with agents or tenants where required.
We support small and medium-sized businesses with office removals, shop moves, and moving stock or equipment. We can work outside normal trading hours to minimise disruption and handle IT equipment and office furniture with proper protection and labelling.
Students moving to or from Queensbury halls or shared houses benefit from a simple, budget-friendly service. We move boxes, suitcases, small furniture, and tech safely between term-time and home addresses, including multi-stop journeys.
For safety, legal, and insurance reasons, some items are excluded or require prior agreement:
If you’re unsure whether something can be moved, just mention it during your enquiry so we can advise and, where possible, make suitable arrangements.
You contact us with the basic details: addresses, property types, what you’re moving, and your preferred dates. We’ll ask a few focused questions about access, floors, and any special items. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, usually with options (for example, with or without packing).
For larger or more complex moves, we recommend a short survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit in Queensbury and nearby areas. The survey lets us assess the volume of goods, check access and parking, and identify any challenges in advance. This helps us allocate the right size vehicle, the right number of movers, and the correct amount of time.
Depending on your preference, we can provide:
On or before move day, we protect furniture with covers and wrap, and can dismantle larger items (beds, wardrobes) where necessary and agreed.
On moving day, our trained team arrives on time, walks through the plan with you, and starts loading systematically. We use blankets, straps, and trolleys to protect and secure items. Everything is loaded to minimise movement in transit. We then transport your belongings directly to your new address, following pre-agreed routes and timings.
At the destination, we unload and place items into the rooms you specify. We reassemble anything we dismantled, within the agreed scope, and ensure you are happy with the final positions before we leave. Rubbish and packing debris from our materials are removed from site.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden charges. Our quotes are based on:
You’ll receive a written breakdown explaining what is included. If your circumstances change – for example, adding extra items or a third address – we revise the quote in advance so you always know where you stand.
Hiring a professional removals team does more than save your back. A structured service reduces the risk of damage to your belongings and property. We bring the right equipment, enough people, and a proven process to keep the move under control.
Compared to DIY or casual man-and-van options, you benefit from fully insured transport, a written agreement, and accountable service. If something unexpected happens – access issues, delays, or last‑minute changes – an experienced team can adapt quickly and keep your move on track.
Your belongings are important, and we treat them that way. Our service includes:
We work to recognised industry standards, keep our vehicles well maintained, and use appropriate protective materials. You’ll have a clear point of contact from quote through to completion.
We handle your belongings with care, using mattress and sofa covers, corner protectors, blankets, and straps. Floors and bannisters are protected where necessary to prevent scuffs and scratches.
We also aim to work as sustainably as practical. Reusable crates and durable blankets reduce waste, and we plan routes efficiently to cut down unnecessary mileage. Where we provide boxes and materials, we encourage reuse or responsible recycling, and we can remove our own packing waste at the end of the job.
Most of our work involves local moves between flats and houses in and around Queensbury. We’re familiar with the layouts of many estates and blocks, and can advise on timings, parking permits, and lift use. Whether you are upsizing, downsizing, or relocating out of town, we can coordinate to match your key handover times.
For offices, clinics, and shops, we plan your move to minimise downtime. This may include evening or weekend moves, phased relocations, and careful labelling to ensure everything lands in the correct department or room. We can work alongside your IT team for a smooth transition.
Sometimes moves are driven by urgent circumstances: last-minute tenancy changes, relationship breakdowns, or emergency clearances. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day removals in Queensbury. We keep the process calm and discreet, focusing on getting you safely from your old address to your new one.
Costs vary depending on the size of your move, distance, access, and any extra services you choose, such as packing or dismantling furniture. Smaller flat moves might be priced on an hourly rate with a minimum booking, while full house or office moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. Once we understand what you’re moving and from where to where, we’ll provide a clear written quote with everything itemised so you know exactly what’s included before you decide.
Where our schedule allows, we can provide same-day or short-notice removals in Queensbury and nearby areas. Availability depends on existing bookings, vehicle size, and how many movers are required. If you need an urgent move, contact us as early as possible with full details so we can check capacity and give you realistic options. Even at short notice, we’ll still confirm costs and inclusions in writing, and we’ll advise what you can do to help the move run smoothly.
Yes. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved, and we also carry public liability cover for work at your property. This insurance is designed to protect against unforeseen incidents, provided items are properly packed and the move is carried out in line with our terms. We’ll explain the key points of cover when you book, including any limits or exclusions, so you understand exactly how your belongings are protected throughout the move.
Our standard removals service includes a suitable vehicle, a professional moving team, protective equipment, loading at your old address, safe transport, and unloading into the rooms you choose at your new property. We’ll protect furniture with blankets and covers and secure everything correctly. Optional extras include packing services, supply of packing materials, and dismantling or reassembly of furniture. All inclusions and any agreed extras are listed clearly in your quote so you can see precisely what you’re paying for.
A basic man-and-van usually provides transport and a driver, often on a casual basis, with limited support, planning, or protection. Our removals service offers structured planning, trained staff, appropriate insurance, and the equipment needed to move full households or offices safely. We conduct surveys for larger moves, allocate the right number of movers, and use proper packing and lifting techniques. This reduces the risk of delays, damage, and disputes, giving you a more controlled, reliable moving experience from start to finish.
Ideally, you should book as soon as your moving date is likely, especially if you’re moving at the end of the month or during peak seasons. One to three weeks’ notice is typical for local moves, though larger homes and office relocations may benefit from more planning time. That said, we regularly help customers on shorter notice when our diary allows. Even if your date isn’t fully confirmed, it’s worth talking to us early so we can pencil you in and discuss options.
