At Tower Hill Removals, we believe removal company prices should be simple, transparent, and easy to compare. Our pricing is designed to suit everything from small man and van jobs in busy city streets to full-house moves from larger family homes. On this page, you will find our pricing model explained, typical man and van costs, example removal jobs, and details of our free quote policy.
We use a clear structure so you always know what you are paying for. Our removal company prices are based on three main factors: the size of your load, the distance of your move, and any additional services such as packing or storage. There are no hidden call-out charges, weekend premiums secretly added at the end, or surprise fuel surcharges after the job is complete.
Before you confirm a booking, we provide a written quote that shows:
- The size of vehicle or number of vans
- The estimated load size in cubic yards or part-load categories
- The number of movers assigned
- Any additional services requested
- Your total price and how it has been calculated
By breaking down our removal company prices in this way, customers can easily compare a small man and van cost with a larger full removal service, and decide which option offers the best value for their specific move.
For most home and office moves, we use a load-based or cubic-yard pricing structure. This ensures you only pay for the space you actually use, rather than a one-size-fits-all flat fee.
Our main options include:
Part Load – Ideal for studio flats, single bedrooms in shared houses, or small office clearances. This is typically up to a small van or a portion of a larger vehicle, calculated by cubic yards of space used.
Half Load – Suited to one-bedroom flats, compact city apartments or small terraced homes where access is tight and belongings are moderate in volume.
Full Load – Designed for two and three-bedroom homes, family houses, or busy town-centre offices relocating in one go.
We estimate the cubic-yard requirement by asking about your main furniture pieces, the number of boxes, and any bulky items such as wardrobes, corner sofas, large desks, or white goods. For more precise removal company prices, we can also arrange a short video survey to view your property and contents.
Our man and van service is the most flexible and cost-effective option for smaller moves, quick same-day jobs, and properties with restricted access. Man and van costs are generally calculated on an hourly basis, with a minimum booking period, plus any additional mileage if you are moving further afield.
Typical man and van cost elements include:
- Number of movers: one, two, or more team members depending on access and lifting requirements
- Size of van: small, medium, or large panel van for city streets and tight loading bays
- Time on site: charged in clear hourly blocks so you are not overpaying for unused time
- Travel time and mileage: always stated up front where applicable
For very small moves such as a single item from a furniture store, a short-distance office chair delivery, or a few boxes from a university flat, a man and van booking often works out cheaper than a traditional fixed-price removal. This makes it a popular choice in busy areas where access windows, loading restrictions, and narrow streets need a compact, agile service.
Every move is different, but to give you a clear sense of our removal company prices, here are example job types and how we usually price them. These examples are purely illustrative; your own quote will be tailored to your circumstances.
Example 1: Studio Flat to Nearby Street
A studio apartment move, with a small sofa, bed, wardrobe, and around 15 boxes, within a few miles. Access is via a shared entrance and stairwell, with typical city parking controls.
- Service: Man and van with two movers
- Pricing basis: Hourly man and van cost plus short-distance mileage
- Load size: Part load, around a quarter to a third of a standard removal vehicle in cubic yards
This type of move is often completed within a few hours, making it very cost-effective for renters and professionals.
Example 2: One-Bedroom Flat in a Busy Location
A one-bedroom flat on an upper floor, with lift access and controlled on-street parking. Contents include a double bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers, small dining set, white goods, TV unit, and 20 to 25 boxes.
- Service: Removal van with two or three movers
- Pricing basis: Load-based quote using cubic-yard estimate
- Load size: Typically classed as a half load
Because these properties are common in busier neighbourhoods with tight loading windows, we plan the arrival time and parking carefully. The final price factors in the expected access time so you are not surprised by overruns.
Example 3: Two-Bedroom House Move Across Town
A two-bedroom terraced or semi-detached house on a residential street, moving across town. The move includes standard bedroom furniture, a larger sofa, dining table, white goods, garden items, and 30 to 40 boxes.
- Service: Full removal service with packing available as an option
- Pricing basis: Fixed removal company price, based on full load cubic-yard volume and distance
- Load size: Full load, sometimes with an additional small van for bulky items
In this scenario, a fixed-price quote offers peace of mind. You know the cost of the entire move in advance, including any disassembly and reassembly of large items if requested.
Example 4: Office or Shop Relocation
An office or small retail unit moving to new premises, often within a central commercial area. Furniture may include desks, filing cabinets, shelving, stock, IT equipment, and display units.
- Service: Combination of man and van teams and full removal vehicles
- Pricing basis: Load-based price with clear hourly charge for dismantling and reassembly
- Load size: Half load to multiple full loads, depending on the business
Because these areas are usually busy, we also consider building loading bays, lift access, and any local restrictions when calculating the final quote.
Our removal company prices and man and van costs typically include:
- Professional movers with experience in handling furniture and fragile items
- Use of straps, blankets, and protective coverings
- Loading, transport, and unloading at your new property
- Standard goods-in-transit cover, with full details available upon request
Optional extras, which are clearly itemised in your quote, can include packing services, packing materials, dismantling and reassembly, and short-term storage. You will always see these listed separately so you can add or remove services to match your budget.
Every customer is entitled to a free, no-obligation quote from Tower Hill Removals. We do not charge for site visits or video surveys, and you are under no pressure to proceed if the timing or budget is not right for you.
To prepare your quote, we will usually:
- Ask a few questions about your current property, new address, and access
- List your major items and estimate the number of boxes
- Discuss your preferred moving dates and any time restrictions
- Recommend either a man and van service or a full removal, based on value for money
Once we have this information, we provide a clear price with a written breakdown. This allows you to compare removal company prices confidently and see the true cost of your move. If your plans change, we can revise the quote to fit updated dates, extra items, or different services.
Whether you are arranging a simple man and van job from a compact flat or a complete move from a family home, Tower Hill Removals aims to keep your removal company prices fair, transparent, and easy to understand.
