Stanley man and van hire – what affects the price?
In Stanley, our man and van service typically costs £84 for a one-person team and £124 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.
| Team size | Average price in Stanley | Equivalent cost per hour | Best for… |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-person | £84 | £33 | Single furniture item |
| 2-person | £84 | £47 | Large/heavy items or small house moves |

Whatever you need to move, we've got a van for that! Our Stanley man and van service can handle house moves, office relocations, furniture deliveries, large parcels – you name it, we can move it.

Tell us what you’re moving and we’ll match you with a local expert.
How can I get an online quote for a man with a van near me?
Easy! It takes less than 2 minutes to get a quote for a local man and van in Stanley. All you need to hand is three pieces of info:
- 1. Pick-up and drop-off locations
- 2. The items you’re moving
- 3. Your preferred day
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!
Should I book a man with a van in advance?
Booking your man and van in advance is a smart move – it means better prices, plus a choice of dates and time slots to suit your schedule. But hey, we get it – plans change, and sometimes you need help at the last minute. No worries! At AnyVan, we’re here for you seven days a week, including same-day or same-week moves.
In fact, 71% of customers in Stanley book and complete their move within seven days.
Can a man and a van help me pack and unpack?
Our rockstar mover will help with loading and unloading your stuff as part of the man and van service.
But packing? That’s not their gig. If you’ve got a mountain of things to move, you might want to level up to our removals service, which can include packing (for a little extra, of course).
Is a man and van service the same as a removals service?
What’s the difference between a man with a van and a removals company? The biggest difference is the size and cost of the move. Both options will sort you with a vehicle, plus the loading and unloading, but removals services go the extra mile with things like packing, furniture dismantling, and reassembly.
If you’re moving a house full of furniture, you’ll probably want a removals team to handle the heavy lifting (literally). But if it’s just a few pieces of furniture that you’re shifting, a man with a van is your budget-friendly, no-fuss solution!
Can I ride with my man and van service?
Unfortunately, you cannot travel with our Stanley 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.
Will you charge me for anything else?
Nope, no hidden costs here! The price of a man and a van in Stanley covers petrol and VAT.
Just double-check that everything’s on the inventory, have everything packed and ready when we arrive, and let us know if there are any stairs or lifts to navigate.
Can you help me find another service?
I sure hope so! We're the nation's favourite moving service for good reason having moved over 1,115 boxes in Stanley. We can move everything from a 4–bed family home to your vintage coat collection. Our most popular services are:
