Hampshire Man and Van Services from Ghurka Movers
Quick, CLean, Efficient
Professional, Reliable Man and Van Services
Need a helping hand with a smaller move? Gurkha Movers provides professional Hampshire man and van services for customers who need reliable transport, experienced movers and a flexible alternative to a full-scale house removal.
Based in Winchester, we work throughout Hampshire, helping homeowners, tenants, students and businesses move everything from individual pieces of furniture to the contents of flats and smaller properties. Whether you’re moving a few streets away, collecting a large purchase or transporting belongings into storage, our team can make the process considerably easier.
A Professional Man and Van Service Across Hampshire
Not every move requires a large removals lorry and a full team of movers. Sometimes, a van and a couple of experienced people are all you need to get your belongings safely from one location to another.
Our man and van service provides the convenience of a smaller removal without sacrificing the professionalism you would expect from an established removals company. Rather than struggling with heavy furniture, hiring a vehicle yourself or asking friends to help, you can leave the lifting, loading and transportation to people who move furniture for a living.
At Gurkha Movers, we believe smaller moves deserve the same care and attention as larger relocations. Our team understands how to handle awkward furniture, protect belongings during transportation and organise the loading process to make the best use of the available space.
From Winchester and Southampton to Portsmouth, Basingstoke, Andover and the surrounding towns and villages, we provide a dependable service throughout Hampshire.
What Can Our Man and Van Service Help With?
Our flexible service is suitable for a wide variety of smaller moving and transportation requirements.
Small House and Flat Moves
Moving from a studio apartment, one-bedroom flat or smaller property? Our man and van service can be an excellent alternative to booking a full removals crew, particularly when you have relatively few belongings to transport.
Furniture Collections and Deliveries
Bought a sofa, wardrobe, dining table or another bulky item that won’t fit in your car? We can assist with furniture collections and deliveries, including items purchased from private sellers and furniture retailers.
Student Moves
Whether you’re moving into student accommodation, changing shared houses or returning home after university, we can help transport your furniture, boxes and personal belongings without the need for a large removals vehicle.
Storage Collections and Transfers
If you’re moving furniture or boxes into storage, or collecting belongings from an existing storage unit, our team can help with the loading and transportation. We can also discuss our own storage services if you need somewhere to keep your possessions.
Small Business Moves
For businesses relocating a few desks, office chairs, filing cabinets or equipment, our man and van service offers a practical way to move items without arranging a full commercial relocation.
Individual Large or Heavy Items
Sometimes you only need help moving one particularly awkward item. From bulky furniture to large household possessions, our team can advise whether a man and van booking is suitable and how many people will be required to move it safely.
How Our Hampshire Man and Van Service Works
We aim to make arranging a smaller move as straightforward as possible.
1. Tell Us What You Need Moving
Contact Gurkha Movers with details of your collection and delivery addresses, the items you need transporting and your preferred moving date. Photographs or a brief furniture list can help us understand your requirements.
2. We’ll Recommend the Right Arrangement
We’ll assess the volume of belongings, access to the properties and any additional help you need. This allows us to recommend an appropriate vehicle and number of movers, rather than leaving you with a service that is too small or unnecessarily expensive for the job.
3. We Collect and Deliver Your Belongings
On the agreed date, our team arrives to load your belongings, transport them to their destination and unload them as arranged. We take care to handle your possessions properly, whether we’re moving a single item or the contents of a smaller home.
Man and Van or Full House Removals?
Choosing between a man and van service and a full removal depends on the quantity of belongings you own, the distance involved and how much assistance you require.
For smaller moves, our man and van service is often the more practical option. It is particularly useful when your belongings can fit into one suitable vehicle and you do not need extensive packing or moving arrangements.
For larger homes, more complicated relocations or moves involving substantial amounts of furniture, our full house removals service may be more appropriate. This allows us to plan the entire relocation, including additional staff, larger vehicles, packing and furniture dismantling where required.
Not sure which service you need? Just tell us what you’re moving. We’ll help you choose the most suitable option rather than encouraging you to book more than you need.
Winchester-Based Man and Van Services Throughout Hampshire
Gurkha Movers operates from Winchester, giving us a convenient base for serving customers throughout Hampshire.
Our coverage includes Winchester, Eastleigh, Southampton, Portsmouth, Fareham, Gosport, Havant, Petersfield, Alton, Basingstoke, Andover, Romsey, Totton, Ringwood, Lymington, Farnborough, Fleet and Aldershot, along with smaller communities and rural locations across the county.
We understand that moving requirements can vary considerably between locations. A furniture collection from a modern retail unit is very different from moving a sofa out of an upstairs flat in Winchester or arranging access to a terraced property in Portsmouth.
Our experience with residential and commercial removals helps us plan for these practical challenges, including stairs, narrow entrances, parking arrangements and difficult access.
Although our operations are centred in Hampshire, we can also discuss journeys into neighbouring counties and longer-distance deliveries.

Our team regularly handles household furniture, fragile belongings and commercial equipment, using the same careful approach whether we’re carrying out a large house move or a smaller transportation job.

Hampshire Man and Van FAQs
How much does a man and van service cost in Hampshire?
The price depends on several factors, including the distance between properties, the amount of furniture being transported, how many movers are required and how long the job is expected to take. Difficult access, stairs and additional services can also influence the quotation. Contact Gurkha Movers with your requirements for a personalised, no-obligation quote.
Can I book a man and van for just one item?
Yes, we can discuss the collection and delivery of individual items such as sofas, beds, wardrobes, pianos, etc. The important consideration is whether the item can be moved safely, particularly if it is heavy or needs to be carried up or down stairs.
Will the driver help me load and unload the van?
Our drivers will typically expect to do most, if not all, of the lifting, especially for larger objects.
Can you provide two movers instead of one?
Yes, we can discuss providing additional moving staff when required. This is particularly useful for large furniture, upstairs flats and situations where safely lifting an item requires more than one person.
Do I need to pack everything before the van arrives?
This depends on the purpose of the man and van storage. If you’re looking for us to move your goods to a new location, such as our storage facility, then all smaller items should be boxed and ready to go. Please advise us in advance regarding larger furniture that needs protecting. If it is all being disposed of, we just ask that smaller items are bagged up ready for us to grab and go.
Do you offer same-day or last-minute man and van bookings?
We understand that collections and moves sometimes need to be arranged at short notice. Contact us with your requirements and we’ll check availability. Same-day and last-minute bookings depend on our existing schedule and the nature of the job.
Can you move furniture bought on Facebook Marketplace or eBay?
We can assist with collections from private sellers, subject to access, availability and the nature of the item. Please confirm the collection arrangements with the seller beforehand and provide accurate measurements for larger furniture.
Can you collect items from IKEA in Southampton?
Absolutely! Gurkha Movers can collect furniture and other bulky purchases from IKEA in Southampton and deliver them to your home or business anywhere in Hampshire. Whether you’ve purchased a single wardrobe, a new sofa or several rooms’ worth of flat-pack furniture, our man and van service provides a convenient alternative to arranging transport yourself. Simply let us know what you’ve ordered, when it will be ready for collection and where you need it delivered. We’ll arrange a suitable vehicle and help get your purchases safely to their destination.
Do you cover all of Hampshire?
Yes. Gurkha Movers provides man and van services throughout Hampshire, including Winchester, Southampton, Portsmouth, Basingstoke, Andover, Eastleigh, Fareham, Romsey and the surrounding areas. We can also discuss moves that begin or end outside the county.
