In Retford, our man and van service typically costs £151 for a one-person team and £203 for two. The exact cost depends on what you're moving and how far it's going, but the important bit is that you'll know the price before you book, not after.
While other man and van providers charge hourly, at AnyVan, our prices are based on your inventory, because moves often take longer than you expect, especially the more distance is involved. To make it easy to compare, we've shown what our prices work out to on an equivalent hourly basis. Spoiler: it's a lot friendlier than the market average.

Whatever you need to move, we've got a van for that! Our Retford man and van service can handle house moves, office relocations, furniture deliveries, large parcels – you name it, we can move it.
No need to rent a van or break your back hauling things on your own. Our service includes loading and unloading, so we can share the load with you. Easy, right?
Tell us what you’re moving and we’ll match you with a local expert.
Easy! It takes less than 2 minutes to get a quote for a local man and van in Retford. All you need to hand is three pieces of info:
You can then choose the time slot that works best for you and any extras, like a spare pair of hands. You’re on your way!
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.
71% of customers in Retford 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 friendly mover will lend a hand with loading and unloading your things as part of the man and van service. However, they won’t be packing your stuff up for you – think of them as the muscle, not the organiser!
If you’ve got a mountain of items to move, you might want to consider our removals service, which can include packing for an extra fee.
Okay, let’s break it down: the main difference between a man with a van and a removals company is scale and cost. Both will provide the vehicle, plus the loading and unloading, but removals companies tend to go above and beyond with packing, furniture breakdowns, and reassembly (basically, they can do it all).
If you’ve got a whole house of furniture to move, we’d suggest looking at a removals service. But if it’s just a few items, like a big sofa, a bed, and a wardrobe, a man with a van is your best bet. It’s simpler, and way more affordable!
Sadly, you can't ride along with our Retford man and van service (boo!).
This is for safety and legal reasons. If you'd like to be there for pick-up and drop-off, you'll need to sort your own travel. We’ll take care of all the heavy lifting!
Nope! Nada! The cost of a man and a van in Retford includes petrol and VAT.
