Man with a van in Bournemouth: what it costs
How it works round here.
Bournemouth, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole • Man and Van
Bournemouth spreads across postcode districts from BH1 in the centre out to BH9 and BH10 towards Wallisdown, with Poole just 3.6 miles along the coast.
Anyone clearing a flat near the university campuses, moving out of student halls, or shifting furniture between the Lansdowne area and a new place across town can book a Man with a Van at a fixed price, whether it's a single wardrobe or a full house move. The service covers sofas, beds, appliances, boxes and garden or DIY items, with one or two people on hand to load, carry and unload, using blankets and straps to keep things protected along the way.
Prices are set in advance for trips within Bournemouth itself and for runs out to Poole, Ferndown and Merley, so there's no guessing what a job will cost before it starts. With storage sites such as A-Storage close to the centre and permit-controlled parking near the Civic Centre and university car parks, a van and driver booked through Van & Driver can work around the tighter spots of a seaside town like this one, getting items from a BH postcode to wherever they need to go next.

Questions people ask in Bournemouth
Do you cover Poole, Ferndown and Merley too?+
Yes. Prices from Bournemouth to Poole (3.6 miles) start at £55; every nearby town has its own page with local prices.
How much is a man and van in Bournemouth?+
A man and a van for one item within Bournemouth is £55, a small load £69, a medium load £139 and a full load £349. Fixed when you book.
Do you do man with a van hire by the hour in Bournemouth?+
No. We price by the job, not the hour: by how much there is and the miles, fixed when you book, so it doesn’t go up if loading takes longer. Within Bournemouth that’s £55 for one item and £69 for a small load.
Does a man and van include help carrying?+
Yes. The driver loads and unloads with you. For heavy or bulky items such as sofas, wardrobes and fridge freezers, choose two people when you book.
Do you do tip runs in Bournemouth?+
Yes: single items from £70, loads from £99 (Mini) to £519 (full load), and house clearances from £599. Disposal at a licensed recycling centre is included, with a waste transfer note, and there's no charge for the distance.
Will two people come?+
When the job needs them (a sofa, a wardrobe, a fridge, or a medium load and up) two people come, and that's already in the price. We decide it from what you're moving; there's nothing to choose or pay extra for.
Is the price fixed?+
Yes. You see the whole price before you book and that's what you pay: no hourly rate, and nothing added on the day for stairs, waiting or a heavy sofa, unless what you're moving changes.
People ask
What people in Bournemouth type into Google, answered.
Can you dismantle a bed in Bournemouth?+
Taking furniture apart isn't something we price for. Put it in the dismantling notes on your booking page (say the wardrobe needs Allen keys, or the bed's already down) so the driver comes ready. Ask us on WhatsApp.
Do you bring blankets and straps?+
Yes, on every job, at no extra cost. Your things are strapped in before the van moves.
Can you move just one thing in Bournemouth?+
Yes. A single item within Bournemouth is from £55, an armchair or a washing machine, say; a sofa on its own is a little more, by size.
Do you go outside Bournemouth?+
Yes, anywhere in England; the price includes the miles. A single item from Bournemouth to Poole starts at £55.
Can I give the driver a gate code or directions?+
Yes. Add them to the access notes on your booking page. Only your driver sees them, on the day.
Can I book a man and van for tomorrow in Bournemouth?+
Yes, if a partner's free: you can book today until 3pm or any day after, and the days you can pick are the days someone can do it.
