Compare affordable student removal services and man & van operators across the UK. Perfect for moving into halls, between student houses, and at the end of term.
Student moves are typically smaller and cheaper than full household removals. A man & van service is usually the most cost-effective option for single-room or light moves.
| Move Type | Typical Cost |
|---|---|
| Man & van (2 hours, local) | £80 – £150 |
| Single room move (local) | £120 – £250 |
| Two rooms / house share (local) | £250 – £450 |
| Single room (city to city, 100mi) | £200 – £400 |
| Full house share clearout | £350 – £700 |
💡 Money-saving tip: Student removals are cheapest on Monday–Wednesday, mid-term. Avoid end-of-June / early July (peak student move season) if you can — prices can double. Book at least 2 weeks ahead.
The less you move, the cheaper it is. Sell, donate, or bin items you don't actually use. Facebook Marketplace and Vinted are great for end-of-year selloffs.
At the end of tenancy, take timestamped photos of every room before leaving. This protects your deposit in case of disputes.
If you only have a few bags and boxes, hiring a van yourself and getting a friend to help may be cheaper — especially if you have a driving licence. Van hire from £40/day.
