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.

articles/removal-van-sizes

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.

Manchester Removal FAQ & Tips

Here are some of our most frequently asked questions on house moving with a Removal Service in Manchester...

Our removal service in Manchester 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. This means you receive the best possible quote without being overwhelmed by endless comparisons. Getting a reliable, affordable Manchester removalist service is simple on our platform.

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.

Opting for our removals service in Manchester offers several advantages, making it an ideal choice for large, small, local, or long-distance moving needs:

  • Efficiency Experienced movers handle the logistics, including loading, transporting, and unloading your belongings, ensuring a smooth and timely move.
  • Personalised Service Our Removals providers often offer a more personalised approach, giving attention to detail and handling your items with care.
  • Convenience With services that can include packing and unpacking, you can focus on settling into your new home.
  • Local Expertise Manchester's complex layout and busy city centre are no problem for local Removal Companies, who know the best routes, traffic patterns, and parking rules.
  • Urban Manoeuvrability Compact vans easily navigate narrow streets, making loading and unloading faster and safer. By choosing a removalist in Manchester, you leverage local knowledge and the practical advantages of smaller vehicles, ensuring an efficient and stress-free move tailored to the city's unique environment.

Yes, when you book through us, your belongings are insured during the move.

This ensures your items are safely insured while in transit, giving you complete peace of mind throughout your move.

We only work with trusted, vetted drivers who meet strict professional standards, so you can rest assured that your move in Manchester is handled by experienced professionals.

We don't provide storage ourselves, but we'll help you find the best local options. Our focus is on fast, reliable moving services — we don't offer storage directly. However, we understand that short-term storage is often part of the moving process.
