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.

Expert Removals in Historic York: Our Specialist Approach
Moving into a city as beautiful and historic as York is a unique privilege. However, its ancient layout of medieval streets, historic walls, and pedestrianised zones makes it one of the UK's most complex locations for any kind of removal. A standard removals service simply isn't enough. It requires a specialist approach, deep local knowledge, and meticulous planning, which is where our expert teams excel.
How Our Specialist Expertise Overcomes York's Unique Challenges
Here's how our specialist expertise overcomes the unique challenges of a York move:
- Navigating Medieval Streets: The heart of York is a famous maze of narrow 'Snickelways' and 'Ginnels'. Our local removals partners have a fleet that includes smaller, more agile vehicles specifically for these jobs, allowing them to safely access properties that standard removal vans simply cannot reach.
- Mastering City Centre Access Rules: York's city centre has extensive 'foot-street' hours where most vehicle access is restricted. Our removal services are experts in planning your removal around these official timings and can advise on the process. You can find detailed information on the City of York Council's website regarding city-centre access for vehicles.
- Working Within the City Walls: A move to a property on or within the famous City Walls requires a unique plan. Our network of local operators will assess all access points beforehand to ensure a smooth process that respects and protects the historic surroundings.
- Managing Tourist Crowds: York is a top tourist destination year-round. Our local removals partners are highly experienced in scheduling moves for the quietest possible times, working efficiently and safely to minimise disruption in busy public areas.
Moving in York isn't a standard job, and you need a service that understands every challenge. Our specialist knowledge is your guarantee of a safe, compliant, and stress-free move into your new home in this incredible city.
York Removal FAQ & Tips
Here are some of our most frequently asked questions on house moving with a Removal Service in York...
What is the average cost of removals in York?
Our removal service in York 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.
What are the benefits of using your service for my house, or flat, move in York?
Opting for our removals service in York offers several advantages, making it an ideal choice for large, small, local, or long-distance moving needs:
- Cost-Effective Our van removal services are generally more affordable than traditional removal companies, you pay only for the time and services you need, helping you stay within budget.
- Flexibility These services cater to your specific requirements, whether it's a single-room move or a full house relocation. We can often accommodate short-notice moves and adjust to your schedule.
- 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 York'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 York, 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.
Are my belongings insured during a house/flat move in York?
Yes, when you book through us, your belongings are insured during the move. Unlike some platforms that may only offer basic vehicle insurance with no coverage for your possessions, all of our drivers are fully covered with Goods in Transit insurance. 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 York is handled by experienced professionals.
Can you arrange Storage for my York move?
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.
Whether you're downsizing, between homes, on a university term break, or simply need time to settle in, there are plenty of self-storage facilities available in York. To make things easier, here are a few reputable options to get you started:
- Safestore With over 135 locations across the UK, Safestore offers secure and flexible personal, business, and student storage.
- Access Self Storage Operating in over 50 locations nationwide, Access Self Storage provides flexible, secure storage solutions for personal and business needs.
If you need to make a stop on the way to leave items in storage, just add it in your booking and make sure you clearly label any items to be delivered.
