You'll be matched with a local man with a van in Greater Manchester, and can track your driver on moving day.
Most man and van jobs in Greater Manchester come down to one question: do you need one person or two? A one-person team handles single items well – a sofa, a wardrobe, the usual suspects. Two people are the better call for heavier or bulkier loads, or if you're clearing a whole flat.
In Greater Manchester, that works out to £99 for a one-person team and £141 for two. Both are fixed prices, set by your inventory and distance.
| Team size | Average price in Greater Manchester | Equivalent cost per hour | Best for… |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-person | £99 | £35 | Single furniture item |
| 2-person | £99 | £49 | Large/heavy items or small house moves |

Thea, an AnyVan moving expert on Greater Manchester, has heard it all! Here are her most-asked questions:
Got stuff to move? Don’t worry, we’ve got a van for that! Whether it’s a house move, office move, furniture delivery, or a giant parcel – if it’s got to go, we’re your go-to team!
Forget about renting a van and doing all the heavy lifting yourself. We’ve got you covered with loading and unloading, so you don’t have to lift a finger – except to point to where it goes!
Tell us what you’re moving, and we’ll pair you up with a local expert in Greater Manchester who knows exactly how to get it done.
In less than 2 minutes, our super simple online form will give you a quote for a local man and van in Greater Manchester. All you need is three bits of info:
Then, pick a time slot that works for you and add any extras – like an extra pair of hands if you need ‘em. And just like that, you’re good to go!
Booking your man and van early? Now that's a smart move! You’ll snag the best prices and get to pick from a range of dates and time slots that work for you. But hey, you can’t always plan for everything – if you need a hand at the last minute, then don’t worry, we’ve got you. At AnyVan, we’re happy to help seven days a week, bank holidays included.
74% of customers in Greater Manchester book their move less than a week in advance. Need a move even sooner? Just ask! Often, we have next-day and even same-day availability.
Our helpful mover will take care of unloading and loading your items as part of our man and van service. But, they won’t pack your items.
If you’re moving a large number of items you may need our removals service, which can include packing – at an extra cost.
The main differences between a man with a van company and a removals company are the size of the move they carry out and the cost. Both services will include the vehicle hire, loading and unloading, but removal companies usually also offer packing or furniture dismantling/reassembly.
Chances are you’ll need a removal service if you’re moving a fully furnished house as there’ll be a fair few items to move. If you’re just moving a couple of pieces of furniture, a man with a van is probably a better option.
Unfortunately, you cannot travel with our Greater Manchester man and van service. This is for safety and legal reasons (boo!).
If you’d like to be there for the pick-up and drop-off, you’ll need to arrange your own travel.
Nope, no hidden costs here! The price of a man and a van in Greater Manchester covers petrol and VAT.
