Small van prices and what the size suits
A small van is the starting point for light loads: a few boxes, a bike, a desk or a single piece of furniture. Check the rate, then check that your load actually fits.
Published hourly range
Small Van: £35–£45 per hour. The booking calculation uses a 2-hour minimum. For arithmetic only, small van 2 hours at the lower published rate is £70. That is a base hourly figure, not a quote for your move.
What this size suits
Small vans suit light moves where space, not weight, is the limit.
- A few boxes and a bag
- A single item such as a desk or chair
- A bike or flat-packed furniture
What moves the final price
Journey length, stairs, carrying distance, crew, waiting time and any extra stops all change the job. Parking, road charges and VAT treatment are not assumed in this page; read them on the offer you receive.
Before you choose
Measure your largest item and compare it with the van category in the quote. If you are borderline, ask for the larger size rather than risking a second trip.
Frequently asked questions
Is the hourly rate the final price?
No. It is a published base range. Your quote reflects the actual job.
Can I change van size later?
Tell us as soon as the load changes. The vehicle may need to be reconsidered before collection.
