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 Durham 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.
