Driver plus a porter
Every Crumpsall booking includes at least one porter carrying alongside the driver. Add a second for heavy furniture or an upper floor without a lift.
Manchester · M8 / M9 · Manchester City Council
A man and van in Crumpsall from £45 an hour: driver, porter, Luton or long-wheelbase van, blankets, straps and a trolley. Part-loads, single items and small flat moves across M8 and M9, insured in transit and quoted before the van is booked.
Edwardian bay-fronted terraces, interwar semis and post-war infill. Access — the floor, the stairwell and the parking — sets the hours on a Crumpsall man-and-van job, so those are the first questions we ask.

Man and van in Crumpsall
Man with a van Crumpsall covers single items, part-loads and small flat moves across M8 and M9. Edwardian bay-fronted terraces, interwar semis and post-war infill. That stock decides whether one porter is enough or a second pair of hands saves you an hour.
Manchester City Council sets the loading and permit rules on these streets, so the bay is arranged before the van leaves. Waiting time, tip runs and lift bookings are all priced up front rather than added to the invoice afterwards.

What the hourly rate buys
Every Crumpsall booking includes at least one porter carrying alongside the driver. Add a second for heavy furniture or an upper floor without a lift.
A Luton or long-wheelbase van with blankets, straps, a trolley and floor protection — no hire charge for equipment.
Stair carries, lift bookings and Manchester City Council permit bays are arranged before the day so the clock does not run while we look for parking.
Every load is insured in transit, backed by £5m public liability. Certificates issued with your confirmation.
Sofa collections, mattress deliveries, flat-pack pickups and student moves around North Manchester General Hospital and Crumpsall Park — one item or one room, same rate card.
Hourly with a two-hour minimum for part-loads, or a fixed price once we know the inventory, the floor and the parking.
Typical jobs
Sofas, beds, fridges, wardrobes and marketplace pickups.
Halls to house-share, term-time storage runs and box loads.
A full flat in one or two van loads with two crew.
The half of the move you cannot fit in the car.
Flat-pack, appliance and showroom collections, assembled on request.
Desks, chairs, servers and archive boxes between small offices.
A few lines is enough to start: rooms, frequency and the Crumpsall street you're on. Anything unusual — a shared stairwell, a key-safe, a dog — is better said up front than discovered on the day.
The quote is fixed before anyone books time off work: labour, products and any extras listed separately, so you can cut the scope rather than the standard if the number is over budget.
Pick the day and window that suits you. Rounds are built geographically around Crumpsall, which is why the arrival time holds rather than drifting across the day.
You get a finished-work check against the same list you agreed at the start — no vague "all done" message. Anything below standard is re-done at our cost.
An insured man and van is only worth booking if the crew turns up, prices honestly and finishes the spec. These are the commitments we hold ourselves to in Crumpsall.
Everyone we send into a Crumpsall property is ID-checked, DBS-screened and works under our own supervision — no unvetted subcontracting.
Every job in Crumpsall is insured to £5m public liability, with goods-in-transit cover on anything we lift, load or take away.
You get the an insured man and van price in writing before we start. Access, stair turns and parking are priced in up front, not added afterwards.
Slots are planned around Crumpsall traffic, permit zones and parking realities, so crews arrive inside the window we promised.
Fixed bands, quoted before we start. What moves the price is access, stair turns, parking distance and the size of the job — not the postcode you live in.
| Package | What it covers | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Van + 1 (hourly) | Minimum two hours, part-loads and single items. | from £45/hr |
| Studio / 1 bed flat | Van and two crew, typically three to four hours. | from £180 |
| 2 bed flat or house | Van and two crew, half to full day depending on access. | from £280 |
Every quote includes blankets, straps, trolley, fuel inside Greater Manchester and goods-in-transit cover.
Same service, next door
Vans are routed from Manchester bases with North Manchester General Hospital and Crumpsall Park as the local reference point, so there is no travel surcharge anywhere inside Greater Manchester.

Our Manchester crews cover Crumpsall weekly, so the man-and-van move you book is priced on what Crumpsall homes are really like, not a regional average. The place looks the way it does for a reason: grew from a village into terraced streets when the Manchester–Bury line opened.
Irk valley damp holds algae on north-facing render and shaded back yards. We budget time for it rather than rushing the finish. Scheduling fits around a strong Jewish community around Bury Old Road, and parking is agreed before the van sets off. Coverage runs across M8, M9 and the Manchester streets either side of it.

“Cosmina and co. worked hard and did a great job. They worked tirelessly to transform a house, a bit neglected due to busyness and work, into a sparkle. Apart from a 15 minute break, for a drink, they did not stop working and did and excellent job.”

North Manchester suburb built around the hospital and Crumpsall Park, with Metrolink to the city in ten minutes. Grew from a village into terraced streets when the Manchester–Bury line opened; the old workhouse became the hospital.
A strong Jewish community around Bury Old Road, plus hospital staff and young families. The best-known landmark is North Manchester General Hospital and Crumpsall Park, and the M8/M9 postcodes reach Cheetham Hill, Blackley, Harpurhey, Prestwich within a short drive.
For a man-and-van move, what matters most locally is the building fabric: edwardian bay-fronted terraces, interwar semis and post-war infill. Irk valley damp holds algae on north-facing render and shaded back yards.
