Choosing your loading help

Start with your full item list. Check bulky furniture, boxes and access at both addresses before choosing your van.

Load yourself or book the help you need for heavy items, stairs and carrying distances.

How your booking works

For a Rotherhithe flat or selected furniture move, connect the actual vehicle entrance with the route inside the building. Give a gate, courtyard or separate loading approach where used, with someone available to open it. Measure prepared furniture through corridors and into the flat before choosing space and help.

A straightforward three-step booking process, with clear pricing and customer support from start to finish.
  1. Tell us about your move

    Share your addresses, moving date, access details, vehicle size and loading help.
  2. We calculate one clear move price

    We calculate and show your booking price from the move details you provide before you book.
  3. Book through Find My Man and Van

    After booking, we allocate a suitable vetted driver and support your booking from confirmation to completion.

Planning your move in Rotherhithe

Rotherhithe includes contrasting residential settings. Southwark’s urban design evidence describes the riverside warehouse group around St Mary’s and the garden-city cottages of Wilson Grove. A collection therefore needs the actual building and furniture route, rather than a single dockside access assumption. Our building-arrangements checklist helps establish present-day admission and any moving window. For your own home, give the street-side vehicle approach, route through the entrance and remaining carry to the room; historic building form leaves current facilities and permission to be confirmed.

Connect the vehicle entrance and flat door

Connect the vehicle entrance and flat door

Identify the lawful vehicle approach, actual building entrance and person who can open any gate. Give the floor, corridors and turn into the flat, with permitted lift or stairs. Confirm the full prepared load, receiving route and chosen help before requesting your price.

Give the actual route in Rotherhithe’s different buildings

Give the actual route in Rotherhithe’s different buildings

The council’s urban design study identifies St Mary’s riverside warehouse group and the garden-city cottages at Wilson Grove. At a riverside building, ask whether the vehicle approach differs from the residents’ entrance and record the route between them.

At a cottage or street-fronting home, describe the gate, front route and actual rooms instead. The historic study establishes contrasting settings, not present-day moving facilities. Obtain current lift, courtyard or private loading instructions from the occupier or manager for the exact building.

Measure corridors as well as vertical access

Measure corridors as well as vertical access

Check the largest piece against any permitted lift opening and cabin, the corridor and the turn into the flat. Include the horizontal carry from the vehicle even where a lift serves the floor. Describe stairs for furniture taking that route and agree optional dismantling before the moving window.

Keep components and labelled fixings together and pack boxes and loose belongings into the complete inventory. For shared areas, ask about protection and have a contact ready to maintain admission. The recipient should check the final room route and have keys and selected unloading help available.

Agree the building window and street position

Agree the building window and street position

Southwark’s bay-suspension service covers the council process where public-road space needs reserving. Building-managed loading and admission need their own agreement. Give the confirmed position and any remaining courtyard or corridor carry.

Put the building’s moving window and receiving access into the London scheduling plan. Check the allocated vehicle and journey through the London route guide, separately from street and private access permission.

Hypothetical example: prepared furniture from a riverside flat

Hypothetical example: prepared furniture from a riverside flat

Imagine moving a prepared bed, cabinet and boxes from a Rotherhithe riverside flat. The building contact confirms the vehicle entrance and moving window. You measure the largest section through the permitted lift and final corridor turn, record the carry from the stop and arrange receiving admission and help.

Book through the London page with that complete route. For a whole household, explore London removals.
