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 Canary Wharf job needs one mover or two before quoting an hour.
Get the hourly rate in writing
Rate, minimum hours, London Borough of Tower Hamlets 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 Canary Wharf 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 Canary Wharf 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 Canary Wharf 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 E14 door is checked against London Borough of Tower Hamlets bay hours before the slot — a legal space is a shorter carry and a shorter bill.
- The Congestion Charge and ULEZ are quoted with the hourly rate and never appear as an extra at the end.
- Access here: Estate permits from Canary Wharf Management, booked goods lifts and loading docks below ground.

Questions
Man with a van in Canary Wharf answered
A man with a van in Canary Wharf, E14, is £45 an hour including VAT with a two-hour minimum on this side of Tower Hamlets, with 2% of Canary Wharf homes being houses — and 59% of E14 homes being privately rented, 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 in Canary Wharf, with 15% social-rented stock nearby. The rate is confirmed in writing before the van sets off on Tower Hamlets bookings.
Two hours, and it starts when the crew arrives at your E14 collection address in Canary Wharf. 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 on this side of Tower Hamlets — and 15% social-rented stock nearby, with 41% one-person households here.
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 Canary Wharf, book two movers — it is usually cheaper because the hours drop — and 2% of Canary Wharf homes being houses, with Tower Hamlets parking rules in play.
Often, yes. We hold same-day and next-day slots across Tower Hamlets and can usually get a van to Canary Wharf within a few hours for a single item or a small load around Canary Wharf (Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR), with 27% owner-occupation locally — and 2% of Canary Wharf homes being houses. Weekend mornings and month-ends book out first, so message early if your date is fixed across E14.

We can pay the seller on collection by prior arrangement around Canary Wharf (Jubilee, Elizabeth line, DLR), with 3,528 households on this patch, 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 this side of Tower Hamlets — and Tower Hamlets parking rules in play, with 2% of Canary Wharf homes being houses. For a 2-bed we quote two movers and either a bigger load or two runs on E14 jobs.
We check London Borough of Tower Hamlets restriction hours and bay types for both addresses before your slot and tell you if a suspension is worth the fee on E14 jobs — and 15% social-rented stock nearby, with 2% of Canary Wharf homes being houses. Where nothing legal is close, we agree the carry distance with you in advance so the hourly estimate is honest on this side of Tower Hamlets, with 15% social-rented stock nearby.
