Driver plus a porter
Every Reddish booking includes at least one porter carrying alongside the driver. Add a second for heavy furniture or an upper floor without a lift.
Stockport · SK5 · Stockport Council
A man and van in Reddish 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 SK5, insured in transit and quoted before the van is booked.
Houldsworth mill terraces in matching brick, interwar semis around Reddish Vale and postwar estates on the North Reddish side. Access — the floor, the stairwell and the parking — sets the hours on a Reddish man-and-van job, so those are the first questions we ask.

Man and van in Reddish
A man with a van in Reddish is the right call when you have a part-load rather than a whole house: a bed and a sofa, a student room, an eBay pickup or a two-room flat. Houldsworth mill terraces in matching brick, interwar semis around Reddish Vale and postwar estates on the North Reddish side. Access is what sets the hours here, so we ask about the floor, the stairwell and the parking before quoting.
Hourly work only stays cheap if the hours are honest. We quote a two-hour minimum from arrival, confirm the walk-in distance around Houldsworth Mill and Victoria Baths-era Reddish Baths, and hold the price we gave you unless you add items on the day.

What the hourly rate buys
Every Reddish 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 Stockport 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 Houldsworth Mill and Victoria Baths-era Reddish Baths — 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.
Send the property size, access notes and dates. Photos of anything awkward in Reddish — stairs, narrow entries, permit bays — sharpen the price straight away.
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 Reddish, 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 Reddish.
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 Reddish traffic, permit zones and parking realities, so crews arrive inside the window we promised.
If anything on the an insured man and van spec is missed, we come back and put it right at no extra cost — that is the whole guarantee.
Cleaning, moving, handyman and clearance all run from the same Reddish scheduling desk, so a multi-part job needs one booking.
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.

Reddish is not a generic Stockport postcode to us: former mill district on the Manchester border with two stations and a Grade II* baths, and that shapes how a man-and-van move in Reddish actually runs here. Sir William Houldsworth built the mill, church, school and club as a complete model village in the 1860s — useful context when you are quoting surfaces, not square metres.
Locally, tame valley damp at Reddish Vale plus mill-brick porosity make render and pointing green quickly, so we bring the products and dwell times that problem needs. We work around reddish Vale country park when we set arrival windows in SK5. Coverage runs across SK5 and the Stockport streets either side of it.
