Big enough for the job. Small enough to care.
East London Man With A Van is an independent removals and transport business. East London is where we’re based; our work takes us all over London, across the UK and to European destinations by arrangement. One item, a flat full of boxes or a whole house move: tell us what needs to get from A to B.
We keep the process direct. You tell us what’s moving and where it’s going. We plan the route, loading and timing with you, and explain the hourly rate and minimum charge before confirming. When something doesn’t fit neatly into a booking form, a conversation usually sorts it out.
We’ve moved hundreds of people around East London over more than 15 years, from single room moves to whole homes. Today we bring that experience to removals and deliveries across London and the UK.

18 March 2014Featured in the Evening Standard
The Evening Standard included East London Man With A Van in its 18 March 2014 article about places accepting bitcoin in London. Read the original article. We still accept Bitcoin or other crypto by arrangement, alongside cash and card payments to the driver.
All of London. Across the UK.
North, South, East, West and Central London are all part of our working patch. Whether it’s furniture going across town, a home move to another borough or equipment heading to a studio, you don’t need an East London postcode to book us.
Moving further? We handle UK removals and deliveries too. Share the collection and delivery addresses, your load and preferred dates so we can plan the move with the right vehicle and crew. For European trips, we’ll work through the route, crossings and practical details with you before confirming.
See where we go or read about UK and European transport. Around the corner or a much longer drive, the approach stays personal. The playlist just gets longer.
More than house moves
We help with house and flat removals, furniture collections and single item deliveries, office moves and business deliveries, and student moves.
We also provide film and TV transport, including camera and lighting equipment collections, location deliveries and hire house returns. Tell us about the kit, cases, collection windows and access so we can plan around your production.
15+ years of getting the details right
Experience has taught us that a good move starts before the van arrives: somewhere legal to park, knowing about the stairs, and a realistic idea of what’s coming. We ask about the practical details because they affect the time, crew and cost. That, and someone needs to remember which box has the kettle.
