For student moves within Leicester, our rates are £59 per hour for one man and a van or £89 per hour for a two-man team, including VAT, with no call-out charge.

Long-distance student moves to or from London, Manchester, Birmingham and other UK destinations are quoted separately, with travel and the included loading and unloading time confirmed before booking.
Moving into an upstairs flat or student room? We don’t charge extra for stairs.
We help students moving to and from accommodation for the University of Leicester, De Montfort University (DMU) and Loughborough University. For moves involving halls or managed student accommodation, tell us about arrival slots, loading restrictions, stairs and lift access so we can plan collection and delivery around your building’s requirements.

Local student moves are charged by the hour, so you do not need to count every small item for a fixed-price inventory. A rough idea of the load or a few photographs, together with your access details, helps us recommend the right team and estimate the time. Your final bill is based on the time used, subject to the two-hour minimum and any charges agreed before booking.
For local student moves in Leicester and Loughborough, billing starts when we arrive at your collection address and finishes when unloading is complete at your final destination.
This includes loading, travel between addresses and unloading.
The two-hour minimum applies to the total moving time. After that, we bill in five-minute increments. Waiting for keys, access or belongings to be packed counts towards the moving time.
One man and a van suits belongings that one mover can safely handle. If an item requires two people, any customer assistance must be discussed and agreed before booking.
A two-man team is recommended for heavy or bulky furniture, difficult access, or when you want us to handle all the lifting. Send photographs and details of stairs, lifts and parking so we can recommend the right team for your student move.
Yes. Local student moves can include collections from different addresses or a stop at a storage unit. There is no separate per-trip charge for additional local van loads; the hourly rate continues until the final unload.
Tell us about every stop before booking so we can plan the route and estimate the time. Long-distance student removals follow the route, load and loading and unloading allowances agreed in your quote. Additional stops or loads must be quoted separately.
There is no call-out charge for student moves within Leicester. For collections further afield, including Loughborough, a small call-out charge is agreed before booking.
Any applicable parking costs or road tolls are also confirmed in advance. Long-distance moves have their own agreed quote, including travel and the stated loading and unloading allowances.
A £50 deposit paid by bank transfer secures your agreed arrival window. The deposit is deducted from your final bill, with the balance payable on completion.
Before you book, we confirm your moving rate or fixed quote, the team required and any additional charges
Our medium-wheelbase, high-roof Vauxhall Movano suits student room moves, smaller flat removals and trips between home, university and storage.
A few photographs or an approximate load description help us assess the space and weight required. Mention larger furniture and anything particularly heavy. For long-distance student moves, we check that the agreed load fits safely into one journey before confirming your booking.
The van’s size can also make parking easier near accommodation entrances, helping reduce carrying distances where suitable parking is available.
Our Magliner sack truck helps move stacked boxes along corridors and between your accommodation and the van. An Evo Super piano skate helps transport suitable bulky furniture across level surfaces, reducing repeated lifting.
Inside the van, protective coverings, foam edge protectors and straps attached to LoadLok rails help protect and secure your belongings during transport. We also carry basic tools for agreed furniture dismantling and reassembly.
Standard moving equipment and protective coverings are included in your moving rate. Tell us about stairs, lifts and larger furniture so we can plan the handling and recommend the right team.
“Excellent service! Friendly, professional and carried all my luggage and cartons up two flights of stairs without any issues. Made the move so much easier. Highly recommend!”
