Van Sizes & What Fits
Not sure what to book? Use this quick guide, then list your items when you get a quote — we’ll match you with the right van and optional helpers.
If you’re between sizes, choose the larger option — it’s usually cheaper than needing a second trip.
| Van size | Best for | Typical examples | Good to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small van | Single items & light loads | A few boxes, suitcases, small furniture, small appliances, compact sofa/chair pickup | Great for quick Chelmsford jobs and tight streets. If you’re moving multiple bulky items, size up. |
| Medium van | Furniture collections & “one-room” moves | Bed frame + mattress, chest of drawers, desk + chair, several boxes, store/marketplace collections | A common choice for flats and student moves. Add a helper if lifting is needed. |
| Large / LWB van | Heavier loads & small flat moves | Multiple larger items (sofa + bed + boxes), bigger pickups, storage runs with bulky furniture | Better when you’ve got several “big pieces”. If you want fewer trips, this is often the upgrade. |
| Luton van | Bulky items & bigger small-move jobs | Multiple sofas, wardrobes, larger flat moves, bulky loads that need extra vertical space | Ideal for volume and awkward shapes. If you’re moving lots of large furniture, this is usually the safest choice. |
This guide is indicative. Fit depends on item dimensions, how they can be stacked, and any packing materials used. For the most accurate match, list each item when quoting.
When to Size Up
- Corner sofas, large wardrobes, or multiple bulky items
- American-style fridge freezers or very heavy appliances
- Lots of boxes + several pieces of furniture
- You want to avoid doing multiple trips
Add your items, access details (stairs/lift), and choose driver-only or helpers.

Clear Costs for Your Chelmsford Move: A Guide to Commuter Town Pricing
For a busy commuter city like Chelmsford, you need a man and van service with a clear and straightforward approach to pricing. We connect you with our network of vetted local partners who provide transparent quotes based on a real understanding of the area. This guide explains the key factors that go into your quote, so there are no surprises on your moving day.
Simple, All-Inclusive Hourly Rate
Your quote is always based on a simple, all-inclusive hourly rate. This means you only pay for the time the job takes, with no hidden charges for fuel on local moves. Crucially, as a popular London commuter hub, we want to assure you there are no unexpected 'London-weighting' surcharges on our local services; the pricing is clear and upfront.
Local Factors That Affect Time
The final time required for your man and van move can be affected by local factors. Our partners use their expert knowledge to plan around the heavy commuter traffic on the A12, scheduling the main part of your move for off-peak times where possible. Similarly, the logistics of moving into a modern city centre apartment are different from a family home in a suburb like Great Baddow. We discuss these access details with you to provide an accurate time estimate.
Permits, Parking & Planning
To ensure a smooth day, especially in areas with parking restrictions, it can be helpful to check for any necessary permits. For the most up-to-date information on parking or arranging a bulky waste collection, we recommend visiting the Chelmsford City Council website.
Our commitment is to provide transparent pricing and a professional moving service, ensuring you receive a fair and accurate quote tailored for your move in Chelmsford.
