Man with a van in Ordsall

From £45 an hour with a two-hour minimum for a van and one porter. A studio or one-bed flat move is typically £180, and a two-bed £280.

The clock starts when we arrive at your Ordsall address and stops when the last item is in. There is no travel charge to reach M5, and no out-of-area fee anywhere inside Salford. Priced the same whether you are moving inside Ordsall or across to Salford.

Blocks in this part of Salford run one goods lift and a timed bay. We book both at survey, and if the lift is out the quote already carries the stair-carry hours rather than adding them on the day. Send a short video of the stairwell and the street and we will confirm crew size before the date is held. Local context matters here: a medieval manor surrounded by docks and terraces; the estate was rebuilt in the 1970s and again from 2010, which is why the access varies so much between neighbouring streets.
