Removal van sizes & what fits (home & office moves)
For removals, the “right van” is mainly about overall volume — furniture + appliances + box count — rather than one or two items. Use this guide as a starting point, then list your key items and access details for the most accurate quote.
Shortcut: If you’re moving a full 1–2 bed flat, a large/LWB or Luton is often the safest starting point. If it’s just a room’s worth of items, a small or medium van may be enough.
| Van size | Typical removals use | Approx. box guide* | Typical contents |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small van | Room move / bedsit with minimal contents | ~10–15 medium boxes | Clothes, bags, a few boxes, and a small number of smaller furniture items. Best if you’re moving light and don’t have bulky pieces. |
| MWB (medium) van | Studio / light 1-bed flat | ~15–25 medium boxes | Bed (often dismantled), small sofa, drawers, TV, and boxed kitchen items. A good fit for compact moves with some furniture. |
| LWB (large) van | 1-bed flat / larger studio / partial 2-bed | ~25–40 medium boxes | Bed, sofa, table, wardrobe, appliances, plus boxes. Ideal when you want more breathing room and fewer compromises on packing. |
| 3.5T Luton van | 2-bed flat / 2–3 bed home (volume-dependent) | ~45–70 medium boxes | Multiple large furniture items (sofas, wardrobes, dining set), appliances and a full set of boxes. The tall box body is well suited to larger removals loads and bulky furniture. |
*Box counts are indicative. Capacity depends on item dimensions, how furniture is dismantled, packing materials used, and how items can be stacked safely. Listing your key items in the quote form will give you the best match.
How to choose the right size (and avoid an extra trip)
- Count boxes realistically: include loft/garage/storage items and anything in cupboards.
- Bulky items reduce capacity fast: wardrobes, mattresses, large sofas, bikes, gym equipment and white goods.
- Dismantling helps: taking beds/wardrobes apart can make loading safer and more space-efficient.
- If you’re “between sizes”, size up: it’s usually cheaper than running out of space on moving day.
- For very full 3-bed+ homes or heavy/bulky contents, you may need more time, more helpers, or multiple trips depending on volume and access.
Only moving a single item, doing a quick pickup, or a very small load? Try our Man & Van service.

The True Cost of a Brighton Move: Getting a Transparent Quote
Brighton is a fantastic place to live, but its unique character comes with a few challenges that can affect the cost of your move. From steep hills to tight streets, several local factors can impact the time and work required. We believe that you've worked hard Our network of local operators believe in being upfront about this, so this guide explains exactly what goes into your quote for our removals services, ensuring you get a fair and transparent price with no surprises.
What Goes Into Your Brighton Moving Quote
Here are the key factors that go into your personalised moving quote in Brighton:
- Your Base Rate: Your quote always starts with our clear, all-inclusive hourly rate. The final cost simply depends on how long the job takes, which is where Brighton's unique layout comes into play.
- The 'Hill Factor': Moving in famously steep areas like Hanover or Elm Grove requires more time and physical effort for our local removals partners to load and unload everything safely. Our removal services factor in a little extra time for these challenging locations to ensure the job is done right and without rushing.
- Tight Street Access: A removalist move in the narrow streets of North Laine or the historic Lanes often means using a smaller, more agile van and can involve a longer carry distance to your door. Our network of local operators account for this to make sure they send the right vehicle and team for the job.
- Parking Permit Costs: Almost all of central Brighton is a Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ). For most moves, booking a parking bay suspension with Brighton & Hove City Council is essential. While this is a separate cost you arrange with the council, getting it sorted is vital for a smooth day and avoids any delays.
Advanced Matching Technology for the Best Quote
Our advanced matching technology gets you the best quote by letting you choose your level of service and insurance. Our system only charges you for what you select, with any possible extra charges detailed clearly on your booking form. We also charge only by the half hour for overruns, unlike some companies that charge by the hour for any extra time, so you're not out of pocket.
Fair Pricing for Brighton's Challenges
By understanding these points, you can see exactly what makes up your quote. Our knowledge of these local challenges means our removal services can price your move accurately and fairly, providing a professional service that's prepared for anything Brighton can throw at it.
We're dedicated to saving you money. See our guide on avoiding hidden fees to save even more on your costs.

How far in advance should I book a removal van?
Although we do recommend you book in advance for a flat or house removal for your peace of mind, removal services are all about speed and flexibility. Our network of providers means that we can often do same-day moves for a similar price as if you’d booked in advance.
In contrast, most traditional removal companies recommend booking 4–6 weeks in advance to secure your moving date and allow time for surveys, logistics planning and resource allocation.
