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 Leytonstone job needs one mover or two before quoting an hour.
Get the hourly rate in writing
Rate, minimum hours, London Borough of Waltham Forest bay reality and any charges confirmed by message. No deposit, no doorstep re-quote.
We load, drive and carry it in
Communal stairs and half-landings carried by hand. Blankets, straps and a trolley come as standard, and the clock stops when the last item is inside.
Why us
Why Leytonstone 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 Leytonstone 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.
Stairs and conversions in Leytonstone
Half-landings, tight returns and a sofa that has to come through a door built in 1890. We ask for the floor number and the stair type when you book, so the hourly estimate reflects the carry instead of surprising you at the end of it.

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 E11 door is checked against London Borough of Waltham Forest 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: Central line bridge height limits, LTN filters and permit bays on the terraces.

Central line bridge height limits, LTN filters and permit bays on the terraces.

Questions
Man with a van in Leytonstone answered
A man with a van in Leytonstone, E11, is £45 an hour including VAT with a two-hour minimum for Leytonstone (E11) addresses, with 41% owner-occupation locally, 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 the Leytonstone rounds, with this being a short walk from Leytonstone (Central). The rate is confirmed in writing before the van sets off on Waltham Forest bookings.
Two hours, and it starts when the crew arrives at your E11 collection address for Leytonstone (E11) addresses. 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 in this 47% flats neighbourhood — and 27% one-person households here, with 53% of Leytonstone homes being houses.
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 Leytonstone, book two movers — it is usually cheaper because the hours drop on Waltham Forest bookings, with 41% owner-occupation locally — and 14,384 households on this patch.
Often, yes. We hold same-day and next-day slots across Waltham Forest and can usually get a van to Leytonstone within a few hours for a single item or a small load for Leytonstone (E11) addresses — and this being London Borough of Waltham Forest territory, with 33% of E11 homes being privately rented. Weekend mornings and month-ends book out first, so message early if your date is fixed in this 47% flats neighbourhood.
Constantly. Send the listing or the collection address with your E11 delivery address and we quote a fixed £75 for a straightforward local pickup in Leytonstone, with 33% of E11 homes being privately rented. We can pay the seller on collection by prior arrangement on Waltham Forest bookings, with The Hitchcock mosaics at Leytonstone station a few streets away, 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 around Leytonstone (Central) — and 41% owner-occupation locally, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood. For a 2-bed we quote two movers and either a bigger load or two runs in Leytonstone.
We check London Borough of Waltham Forest restriction hours and bay types for both addresses before your slot and tell you if a suspension is worth the fee on this side of Waltham Forest — and Waltham Forest parking rules in play, with 47% of homes here being flats. Where nothing legal is close, we agree the carry distance with you in advance so the hourly estimate is honest in Leytonstone, with Waltham Forest parking rules in play.
Yes — every street in E11 and the rest of Waltham Forest on this side of Waltham Forest. 9% flats and access here means communal stairs and half-landings carried by hand, both of which we plan around before quoting an hourly job in this 47% flats neighbourhood, with a median age of 35 in this neighbourhood.
