Man with a van in Portsmouth: what it costs
How it works round here.
Portsmouth, Portsmouth • Man and Van
Portsmouth's terraces and tight side streets across PO1, PO4 and PO5 mean much of the city relies on permit parking rather than driveways, which is exactly the sort of thing to plan around when you're moving a sofa or a washing machine.
Man with a Van covers house and flat moves throughout the city, from boxes and garden waste to full three-piece suites, with one or two people doing the loading and unloading, blankets and straps included, and a fixed price agreed before anyone arrives. It's just as suited to a short hop across town, say between Fratton and Cosham, as it is to a trip out to Gosport or Waterlooville nearby. Everything is quoted in advance, so there's no working out van hire, fuel and a driver separately, and no surprises once the van's loaded. Whether you're clearing a single wardrobe from a flat near Victory Retail Park or emptying a whole house close to Queen Alexandra Hospital, the service is built to fit around Portsmouth's streets and its parking, with the price fixed from the start.

Do you do man with a van hire by the hour in Portsmouth?+
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 Portsmouth that’s £55 for one item and £69 for a small load.
Does a man and van include help carrying?+

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

Yes, on every job, at no extra cost. Your things are strapped in before the van moves.
