💡 When should I use a man and van vs a removal company? A man and van service is best for moves under 30–40 boxes, properties up to 1 bedroom, student moves, and single-item deliveries. For 2+ bedroom family moves, a full removal company with a team and larger van will usually be more efficient and better protected.
| Man & Van | Removal Company | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Small moves, students, single items | 2+ bedroom family moves |
| Team size | 1–2 people | 2–5 people |
| Van size | Small to medium | Large or multiple vans |
| Packing service | Usually not available | Full packing service available |
| Insurance | Basic (check carefully) | Goods in Transit + Public Liability |
| Cost | Lower | Higher (but better for larger moves) |
| Availability | Often short notice | Book 4–8 weeks ahead |
