Keep Moving Pricing and Quotes
At Keep Moving, we keep removal company prices and man and van costs simple, transparent, and easy to compare. Whether you are moving a studio flat near the station, a terraced house on a busy one-way street, or just need a man and van for a few bulky items, our pricing model is designed so you always know what you are paying for and why.
Transparent Pricing Model
Our pricing is built around clarity and flexibility. Instead of confusing flat fees that hide extra costs, we use a clear structure that reflects the size of your load, access at each address, and the level of help you need with packing and carrying. We always confirm the price before you book, and we never add surprise charges on the day.
Key points of our transparent pricing model:
We explain every cost before you confirm your booking.
No weekend or peak-time surcharges hidden in the small print.
Extra services like packing, assembly, or storage are listed as separate, optional additions.
If the job details stay the same, the price stays the same.
Load-Based and Cubic-Yard Rates
To keep things fair for every type of move, we offer load-based and cubic-yard pricing. This suits both full-property removals and smaller man and van jobs.
Load-Based Removal Company Prices
For full moves and large partial moves, we usually price by vehicle load. This works especially well for moves like a two-bedroom flat from a city centre block or a three-bedroom semi-detached house on the edge of town. We look at how many vans or lorry loads your belongings will fill and price accordingly.
Load-based pricing considers:
The vehicle size required for your move.
Number of loads if more than one trip is needed.
Distance between your current property and new address.
Access issues, such as narrow roads, permit zones, or top-floor flats without lifts.
Cubic-Yard Man and Van Cost
For smaller moves, clear-outs, and item transport, we often recommend our cubic-yard or part-load man and van cost structure. This is especially useful if you are:
Moving a single room from a shared house near a busy high street.
Sending a few pieces of furniture to a new flat.
Clearing a small storage unit or garage.
With cubic-yard pricing, you only pay for the space your items take up in the van, rather than paying for a full vehicle you do not need. This is ideal for students, young professionals, and anyone making a short local move with a smaller load.
Example Removal Company Prices
Every move is unique, but these example jobs show how our removal company prices typically work for common property styles in the area. Exact prices depend on dates, access, distance, and any extras you choose, but the structure remains the same.
One-Bedroom Flat Near the Town Centre
Typical job: A one-bedroom flat on the third floor in a busy central location, with stair access only. The customer needs help moving standard furniture, boxes, and a few appliances to another flat across town.
Pricing style: One full van load, load-based pricing.
Includes: Two movers, furniture protection, loading and unloading, and travel between addresses.
Common extras: Dismantling and reassembling a bed frame or wardrobe if needed.
Three-Bedroom Semi-Detached House in a Residential Area
Typical job: A family moving from a three-bedroom semi-detached home with a driveway to a similar property in a nearby neighbourhood. Contents include larger furniture such as sofas, wardrobes, dining sets, and garden items.
Pricing style: One larger vehicle or two standard van loads, depending on volume.
Includes: Three-person team, protection for furniture, loading and unloading, and travel between properties.
Common extras: Full or partial packing service the day before the move, including boxes and materials.
Two-Bedroom Terrace on a Narrow Street
Typical job: A two-bedroom terraced house set on a narrow road with limited parking and permit restrictions. Access may require smaller vehicles and careful timing to avoid congestion.
Pricing style: Load-based, with an allowance for access and parking complexity.
Includes: Two or three movers, one or more van loads, route planning, and handling staircases or tight hallways.
Common extras: Evening or early-morning move slots to avoid traffic and pressure on parking spaces.
Example Man and Van Cost Jobs
Our man and van service is perfect for smaller, flexible moves that do not require a full removal crew. Using cubic-yard and part-load pricing, you can keep costs down when you have fewer items to move.
Student Move from a Shared House
Typical job: A student moving from a shared house close to a university campus to a new flat. Items include a bed, desk, a few small pieces of furniture, and several boxes and bags.
Pricing style: Cubic-yard rate based on actual space used.
Includes: One mover plus van, loading and unloading assistance, and a short local journey.
Cost control: Sharing the van space and cost with a housemate moving on the same day is often possible.
Single-Item or Small Furniture Move
Typical job: Collecting a sofa from a furniture store on a retail park and delivering it to a flat above a shop in a busy town centre, or moving a large wardrobe between local addresses.
Pricing style: Minimum cubic-yard or time-based rate for small loads.
Includes: One or two movers depending on the weight and access, protective covers, and careful handling in tight stairwells.
Office Equipment or Small Business Move
Typical job: A small business relocating a few desks, chairs, filing cabinets, and IT equipment from an office above a parade of shops to a serviced office building.
Pricing style: Part-load or cubic-yard rate, with an option to upgrade to a larger team if needed.
Includes: Man and van team, loading and unloading, safe transit of equipment, and timing planned around business hours to minimise disruption.
What Affects Your Final Price
To give you an accurate figure, we consider a few important details:
Property size and contents: From a compact studio flat to a larger family home.
Access and parking: Basement or top-floor flats, narrow staircases, permit-only streets, or long walks from the van to the door.
Distance: Local moves within the same area are usually cheaper than long-distance relocations.
Timing: Weekdays, evenings, or weekends can all be arranged without hidden surcharges, but availability can influence options.
Extras: Packing services, materials, furniture assembly, or storage can be added if required.
Free, No-Obligation Quotes
Every customer receives a free, no-obligation quote before booking. Our team will ask a few questions about your move, such as your current and new address, property type, number of rooms, any special items like pianos or large wardrobes, and whether you need packing help.
We can often give a guide price immediately for straightforward man and van jobs, and for larger removal company jobs we may recommend a short video survey or detailed inventory to ensure accuracy. Once we have all the information, we provide a clear written price so you can see exactly what is included.
You are free to compare quotes and come back to us when you are ready. There is no pressure to decide on the spot, and we are happy to answer questions about any part of the cost, from the basic man and van rate through to full-house removal company prices. With Keep Moving, you can plan your move confidently, knowing your quote is fair, transparent, and tailored to your needs.
