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.

Removals in Halifax – Navigating Hills, Terraces and Weather
Halifax moves come with steep hills, narrow terraces, and Pennine weather. Our local removals partners are trained for it all, using first-hand experience across Calderdale to ensure every removal is handled safely and efficiently.
How do you handle Halifax's hills?
Our partners use the right vehicles and safety gear for steep gradients, protecting your belongings and ensuring the van remains secure on cobbled streets and inclines.
What if I'm in a Victorian terrace?
Postcodes like HX1 and HX2 are full of beautiful but narrow terraces. Crews pre-plan parking and carry routes to avoid damage and speed up loading.
Do you plan for Calder Valley roads and weather?
Yes. Drivers know how to navigate the A58 and A629 safely year-round. In rain or snow, moves are equipped with covers and mats to keep floors and furniture protected.
This practical approach to Halifax's terrain and conditions is why residents trust our network for reliable, professional removals across West Yorkshire.
Halifax Removal FAQ & Tips
Here are some of our most frequently asked questions on house moving with a Removal Service in Halifax...
What is the average cost of removals in Halifax?
Our removal service in Halifax starts as low as £20/hour, depending on your specific requirements and factors such as: Van size and number of movers:
- Small van with one mover: ideal for single rooms.
- Medium van with one or two movers: suitable for a one, or two-bedroom flat.
- Large van (Luton) with two movers: best for larger moves or house relocations. Other factors include:
- Distance of the move
- Additional services (such as furniture assembly or packing)
- Parking arrangements or congestion charges, especially in busy city centre areas
For comparison, the average cost of moving house in the UK with a traditional removal company is approximately £1,300 for a 3-bedroom house (up to 25 miles). This makes our removal removals service a much more flexible and affordable alternative—perfect for smaller moves or those on a budget. To ensure you get the best value, we use smart matching technology to connect you with the most suitable and competitively priced local movers near you.

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.
