How it works
Three steps and a rate that holds
Send the load and both postcodes
A photo, a list or a marketplace link is enough. We size the van and decide whether your Manor House job needs one mover or two before quoting an hour.
Get the hourly rate in writing
Rate, minimum hours, London Borough of Hackney bay reality and any charges confirmed by message. No deposit, no doorstep re-quote.
We load, drive and carry it in
Booked goods lift and loading bay, trolley all the way in. Blankets, straps and a trolley come as standard, and the clock stops when the last item is inside.
Why us
Why Manor House books our vans and books them again
The hourly rate is the whole rate
£45 for one mover, £65 for two, VAT and fuel inside it. Nothing is added for blankets, straps, the trolley or the drive between your two Manor House addresses.
Billed in half hours, not rounded up
After the two-hour minimum we charge in 30-minute blocks. A job that runs fifteen minutes over costs fifteen minutes, not a whole extra hour.
Drivers who lift, insured and DBS-checked
Every van carries goods-in-transit and public liability cover, and the driver is part of the crew rather than someone who watches you carry a sofa.
Lift and loading-bay slots in Manor House blocks
Managed blocks want the goods lift booked and the bay reserved. Tell us the building at quote stage and we work to the slot, with floor protection and a trolley, so nothing is carried past a concierge who was not expecting us.

Hourly rates include VAT, fuel, blankets, straps, a trolley and the driver's lifting help. Charging starts when the crew arrives at your collection address and stops when the last item is inside — travel between the two addresses is inside the hourly rate, and Congestion Charge and ULEZ are quoted up front, never added afterwards. Two-hour minimum.
- Parking outside your N4 door is checked against London Borough of Hackney bay hours before the slot — a legal space is a shorter carry and a shorter bill.
- ULEZ is quoted with the hourly rate and never appears as an extra at the end.
- Access here: Estate loading bays with booked service lifts, Seven Sisters Road red route and permit bays behind Green Lanes.

Questions
Man with a van in Manor House answered
A man with a van in Manor House, N4, is £45 an hour including VAT with a two-hour minimum in this 97% flats neighbourhood, with 19% owner-occupation locally — and this being a short walk from Manor House (Piccadilly), or £65 an hour for two movers. A single item collection and delivery is £69 and a studio or 1-bed flat move starts at £220 on Hackney bookings, with 48% social-rented stock nearby. The rate is confirmed in writing before the van sets off on the Manor House rounds.
Two hours, and it starts when the crew arrives at your N4 collection address on the streets near Woodberry Wetlands and the East Reservoir. If the job takes two hours and ten minutes you pay for two and a half — we bill in 30-minute blocks after the minimum rather than rounding a whole hour for Manor House (N4) addresses — and Woodberry Wetlands and the East Reservoir a few streets away, with Hackney parking rules in play.
Yes. Lifting is the job, not an extra. One mover handles boxes, mattresses, flat-pack and most single items with a trolley; for a wardrobe, a sofa bed or anything going above the first floor in Manor House, book two movers — it is usually cheaper because the hours drop for Manor House (N4) addresses — and 48% social-rented stock nearby, with 97% of homes here being flats.
Often, yes. We hold same-day and next-day slots across Hackney and can usually get a van to Manor House within a few hours for a single item or a small load across N4 — and 48% social-rented stock nearby, with Woodberry Wetlands and the East Reservoir a few streets away. Weekend mornings and month-ends book out first, so message early if your date is fixed on Hackney bookings.
Constantly. Send the listing or the collection address with your N4 delivery address and we quote a fixed £75 for a straightforward local pickup on Hackney bookings, with 19% owner-occupation locally. We can pay the seller on collection by prior arrangement in Manor House, with 48% social-rented stock nearby, and the item is blanket-wrapped for the drive.
A Luton with a tail lift is standard: roughly the contents of a studio or a comfortable 1-bed — a double bed, a three-seater sofa, a fridge freezer, a washing machine, a wardrobe and around twenty boxes on the streets near Woodberry Wetlands and the East Reservoir — and Hackney parking rules in play, with this being a short walk from Manor House (Piccadilly). For a 2-bed we quote two movers and either a bigger load or two runs on N4 jobs.
We check London Borough of Hackney restriction hours and bay types for both addresses before your slot and tell you if a suspension is worth the fee on the streets near Woodberry Wetlands and the East Reservoir — and 19% owner-occupation locally, with 3% of Manor House homes being houses. Where nothing legal is close, we agree the carry distance with you in advance so the hourly estimate is honest across N4, with Woodberry Wetlands and the East Reservoir a few streets away.
Yes — every street in N4 and the rest of Hackney on this side of Hackney. 6% flats and access here means booked goods lift and loading bay, trolley all the way in, both of which we plan around before quoting an hourly job across N4 — and Hackney parking rules in play, with 3% of Manor House homes being houses.
