Our removalists box up your loose items — clothes, kitchenware, books, ornaments. Choose No if you'll box these up yourself.

A quick walkthrough video helps us recommend the right van size and give you an accurate quote. Just a 1-minute phone video of each room showing what's coming and what's staying works perfectly.

    Cosmin Driver Cosmin 5.0 (4) Trafford, Manchester

    Man with a Van Bristol to Salford

    BS2 → M50 5 Oct 2026

    Our customer needed a long-haul move from Ashley in Bristol to Quays in Salford, with two passengers riding along. Cosmin loaded everything, boxes, suitcases, a mattress, desk, DJ controller and speakers, plus kitchen kit, in 30 minutes, then drove the Transit across three and a half hours of motorway to Manchester. All the gear arrived unloaded and ready to go. It's the kind of move that needs a calm hand on a long road and a driver who knows how to pack tight so everything stays put for the journey.

    Adam Driver Adam 5.0 (1) Manchester, Levenshulme

    Man with a Van Stockport to Burnley

    SK6 → BB11 26 Sep 2026

    Daniel's move from Stockport to Burnley was a solid long-distance haul across counties. Adam arrived with a helper and spent three hours methodically loading the king-size bed, single bed, three-seater sofa, wardrobe, display cabinet, washing machine, and boxes of household items into the Luton van. Once on the road, the 45-minute drive gave Adam time to navigate the route carefully, no rushing on a job this size. At the terraced house in Burnley, the real work began: carrying the beds and mattresses upstairs to the bedrooms, positioning the washing machine in the kitchen. Daniel left a 5-star review, praising Adam's friendliness and how methodically he'd handled the heavy pieces into the right rooms.

    ★★★★★

    Lucian Driver Lucian 5.0 (2) Tamworth, Castle

    Man with a Van Bristol to Hartlepool

    BS5 → TS22 30 Aug 2026

    Michael needed a full van of boxes and household items collected from storage in Lawrence Hill and taken north to Rural West. Lucian loaded everything over two hours, then made the five-hour drive to Middelsbrough to complete the delivery. The long haul required proper planning and focus on the road, but Michael followed up with a 5-star review praising Lucian's communication, he'd even shifted the job forward by a couple of days to help out with Michael's timeline.

    ★★★★★

    “Lucian was excellent from the get go. Came straight back to me by phone and whatsapp. Even moved the job a couple of days early to help my client”

    Isaac Driver Isaac 4.9 (7) London, Whitechapel

    Man with a Van Bristol to London

    BS1 → E9 29 Aug 2026

    Our customer needed a desk, paintings, TV, and a full collection of boxes and suitcases moved from Central Bristol to Victoria in Hackney, a solid 3-hour-20-minute haul across counties. Isaac loaded everything into the Transit in an hour, then spent most of the day on the motorway to get it all delivered safely to the other end. Long-distance moves like this need proper planning and a driver who's comfortable with the road time, and the job wrapped by early evening despite the early-morning start and the distance involved.

    William Driver William 5.0 (3) County Durham, Neville's Cross

    Man with a Van Local to Durham

    KW9 → DH7 26 Aug 2026

    Our customer needed a full household move from East Sutherland and Edderton in Highland to Deerness in County Durham, a long-haul job that required careful planning. William and a helper spent 3 hours loading the chest of drawers, bed, futon, desk, and everything else into the Ford Transit, then faced a 7-hour-25-minute drive across the motorway to get it all there safely. That's the kind of day that tests a driver's stamina and route knowledge, but the load arrived intact and on schedule.

    ★★★★★

    “William was very professional, hard-working, friendly & trustworthy. He got the job done in record time, considering he & his co-driver were on the road for over 6 hours to get to my address in the highlands. He was on time and ensured everything was done. Plus, at the destination, after an 8 hr journey, he made sure the furniture was assembled; Highly recommended. Excellent job, well done.”

    Isaac Driver Isaac 4.9 (7) London, Whitechapel

    Man with a Van Brighton to Liverpool

    BN15 → L13 21 Aug 2026

    Isaac collected a full flat's worth of furniture and household items from Widewater and drove them north to Old Swan West in Liverpool over a five-hour haul. The loading alone took three hours, a mattress, two chest of drawers, dining table, desk, and kitchen appliances all needed careful placement in the Transit to survive the motorway journey. The customer rode along to help unload at the far end, which meant Isaac could focus on getting everything safely across the distance in one push. A proper long-distance day, the kind that needs planning and a steady hand on the wheel.

    Louis Driver Louis 4.9 (9) Bristol, Easton

    Man with a Van Truro to Bristol

    TR11 → BS7 6 Aug 2026

    Our customer needed their guitars, desk setup, and personal belongings moved from Falmouth across to Bristol, a solid 3-hour drive that Louis took on in one push. He loaded everything carefully in about an hour, then spent most of his day on the motorway with a full Transit, getting it all delivered into Horfield by late afternoon. For a move that long, the planning and steady driving made the difference between a rushed job and a smooth handover.

    ★★★★★

    “Very friendly and helpful.”

    Lifted Driver Lifted 5.0 (2) Southampton, Freemantle

    Man with a Van Bournemouth to Colchester

    BH9 → CO2 → CO5 25 Jul 2026

    Our customer needed two uni students and their belongings moved from Winton East to Mersea and Pyefleet, a serious long-haul day. Lifted loaded the Transit in just over two hours, then spent nearly eight hours on the road to get everything across to the dropoff. The cargo was mostly soft items plus a couple of desks and monitors, all packed tight and secured for the motorway. Both students rode along to help with the unload at the other end, so Lifted got them all there safely in one go. That's the kind of distance and planning that separates a local move from a proper cross-county job.

    Man with a Van Bridgwater to Bournemouth

    TA9 → BH15 21 Jul 2026

    Our customer needed clothes bags, boxes, and a suitcase moved from Highbridge & Burnham South to Poole Town, a solid four-hour-plus haul across counties. Chijioke loaded everything in 30 minutes, then settled in for the motorway run. Long-distance moves like this one need good planning to keep items secure over that kind of distance, and the driver made sure everything arrived safely at the other end. It's the kind of day-long job where steady driving and careful loading make all the difference.

    Saksham Driver Saksham 5.0 (2) Hillingdon, Hayes

    Man with a Van Crawley to Bristol

    RH1 → BS32 20 Jul 2026

    Our customer's bedroom and dining furniture made the journey from Merstham to Bradley Stoke South on a solid long-haul route, Saksham loaded a king-size bed frame, mattress, dining table, chairs, office gear, and a large TV into the Ford Transit over an hour, then settled in for the five-and-a-half-hour drive across county lines. The Transit's extra length meant everything fitted without compromise, including the clothes packed into whatever space remained. By late morning he'd delivered the lot to the new place, the kind of inter-county move that hinges on picking the right van size and driver stamina in equal measure.

    ★★★★★

    “Excellent driver, talkative and a very professional. Made the process quick and efficient, secured all items well during the move and was polite and respectful. Would love to have his help again!”

    Ambark Driver Ambark 4.8 (4) Glasgow, Newlands/Auldburn

    Man with a Van Stirling to Glasgow

    FK8 → G21 → G40 10 Jul 2026

    Ambark collected a medium couch, desk, and chest of drawers from Stirling North, along with boxes and a few other pieces ready to load. The Ford Transit long wheelbase took about 2 hours to pack, then it was nearly 2 hours on the road to Calton in Glasgow, where the couch and a couple of items were dropped off. Our customer travelled alongside, and everything arrived safely by late morning, a solid day's work moving the priority furniture across to the new place.

    Kalidou Driver Kalidou

    Man with a Van Manchester to Bristol

    M20 → BS3 30 Jun 2026

    Our customer needed to relocate from Withington in Manchester to Southville in Bristol, a full cross-country haul covering nearly seven hours on the road. Kalidou loaded eight medium boxes, four big suitcases, a guitar, mirror, and shoe rack into the Transit in an hour and a half, then drove south with the customer riding along to their new place. That's the kind of distance that demands careful planning and a driver comfortable with a long motorway day to get everything there in one trip.

    ★★★★★

    “Fantastic!”

    More about Long Distance Moves

    Local moving help, explained in detail

    London to Manchester is about 4 hours of route time on the M1 and M6. Edinburgh to London is closer to 7 or 8 hours on the A1. Add loading and unloading at each end and you have the full job time.

    Getting the van size right matters more than most people realise. Two trips in a medium van usually costs more than one trip in a Luton, because the round-trip route doubles both times. The booking system shows all three sizes side by side so you can compare before confirming. The driver loads at your address, drives the route, and unloads at the destination with no handoff to a regional partner along the way.

    A full house relocation across the UK is usually beyond a single-van booking. Moving a 3-bed-plus property from Bristol to Manchester, or London to Edinburgh, means a 2-man or 3-man removals crew with multiple vans.

    For these moves, use the house removals form. It collects the property details, destination address and access notes, and one of the removalists comes back with a quote. Removals bookings run as half-day or full-day slots. Half-days go up to 4 hours, full days up to 8. For very long routes, a full-day slot plus an overnight split between loading day and unloading day is the usual approach. If the job overruns, overtime is £90/hr for a 2-man team or £120/hr for a 3-man team.

    Get a Quote

    A 100-mile motorway run is roughly 1.5 to 2 hours of route time.

    Most inter-county moves fit a single-van booking. Bristol to Birmingham, Leeds to Manchester, London to Cambridge. Standard man and van jobs, priced in seconds through the booking system. Where the volume needs a crew rather than a single driver, the house removals form handles the quote.

    Long Distance Moves — frequently asked questions

    Quick answers to the most common questions about this service

    8 FAQs

    How is a long-distance move priced?

    Your driver's hourly rate multiplied by total job time — route time plus loading and unloading. Route time covers the full round trip from the driver's base through your pickup, to your drop-off, and back. Put both postcodes into the booking system for an instant price.

    Which UK routes do you cover?

    All of mainland UK. England, Scotland and Wales. London to Manchester, Edinburgh to London, Bristol to Glasgow, Cornwall to north Scotland. Basically anywhere on the mainland. Northern Ireland isn't in the booking system.

    Is the same driver with me from start to finish?

    Yes. One driver, one van, pickup to drop-off. No transfers between regional teams, no unloading mid-route. Everything loaded at your address arrives at the destination on the same van.

    How long does a long-distance move take?

    London to Manchester is about 4 hours. Glasgow to London runs 7 or 8. South coast to north Scotland is 9 to 10. Add loading and unloading at each end for the full job time.

    Will the driver need to stay overnight on very long routes?

    On very long hauls, Scotland to the South West for instance, drivers often split across two days. The driver confirms any overnight arrangement before you lock the booking in.

    What van size do I need for a long-distance move?

    Volume matters more than distance. A 1-bed flat usually fits a large van. A 2-bed generally needs a Luton. Anything bigger is a removals job rather than a man and van booking. The booking system shows all sizes side by side so you can compare before committing.

    Do you cover moves between England, Scotland and Wales?

    Yes. Mainland UK is one coverage area. Any combination of England, Scotland and Wales books through the same system.

    How does payment work?

    20% deposit to secure the booking when you confirm. The remaining balance is settled on completion of the move.

    Most long-distance bookings on the platform are London-related. Someone leaving the city, someone arriving. That pattern runs all year. Job changes, university starts, retirement moves to the coast or countryside. London to Manchester and London to Edinburgh are the two most booked long routes. London to Bristol and Birmingham fill out the top five. Reverse direction is just as common.

    Outside the London corridors, cross-country routes fill the rest of the map. Manchester to Edinburgh on the M6 and M74, Bristol to Birmingham on the M5, Liverpool to Leeds on the M62. Cardiff to London, Newcastle to Edinburgh. All standard bookings, priced the same way as any local job.

    A lot of single-van bookings fall in the inter-county range. Bristol to Birmingham, Leeds to Manchester, London to Cambridge. Roughly 50 to 150 miles. Fast enough on the motorway that route time stays manageable, close enough that an overnight split isn’t needed. These tend to work out cheaper than most people expect because motorway hours are quick hours. Removal Reviews is worth checking out to get pricing and read their guides and checklists for long distance moves.

    Driver coverage runs across mainland UK. Every major region has drivers on the network. Bookings are matched to a driver at one end of the route, so there’s no wasted journey before the job starts. For 3-bed-plus full-property relocations, the house removals form gets a quote from the removals team with a multi-van crew.
