Dean and his team were absolutely brilliant! Nothing was too much trouble and they made the whole thing look so easy and effortless. They were consummate professionals and I’ll definitely be using them again!
2 men plus van , Very friendly made the move very easy. Would definitely recommend. Thanks very much
Damion and his team did an amazing job with moving me from London to East Sussex! They were both super efficient, speedy and highly skilled in moving & packing up the truck for maximum space. They took great care of all my items, were gracious…and couldn’t do enough to make the day go smoothly! I would highly recommend Damion & his team. These guys were brilliant!
Good,!professional. Clean van. Organised.
Very efficient. Both the driver and his helper were very good. Worked fast. Squeezed everything into the van, even my upright piano (which they didn’t need any help with).
Fantastic. Desmond was so helpful, lifting furniture easily like it was lightweight and packing our stuff in the van Tetris-style although the van was actually more than large enough. He made it a really stress-free experience. Absolutely recommended!
He was very helpful, steadily smiling and absolutely professional in driving. My husband said he deserves 10stars ?
Very helpful n friendly
The folks who came are really professional and friendly. ( Roger's team ). I have seen couple of other movers where the helpers just stack things randomly and said van is full and can't take anymore. But the guys came are professional. First accessed the things, planned everything and the van was jam packed. They handled the things with much care for items like TV, glases, computer etc. I strongly recommend Roger's team.

What to keep in mind when moving in Oxford
Oxford moves are often shaped by access and property type. Parking controls, flats, student houses and tighter streets can all affect the best setup.
Access needs thought
Some Oxford streets and properties make loading less straightforward, especially where stopping space is limited.
Student and flat moves
Student houses and flats often involve more carrying, stairs or shared entrances than the address alone suggests.
Set the move up clearly
Choosing the van size and help level upfront helps drivers understand what your Oxford move needs.
For broader planning advice, see our house moving guides.

What affects the cost of a man and van in Oxford?
Your quote is shaped by the details you choose — so you only pay for what your move needs. Enter your move information to see available options based on van size, level of help and distance between addresses.
The main things that change your quote
Choosing the right size van helps ensure your move runs efficiently without paying for more space than you need.
Choose driver-only for a lower-cost option, or add extra help with loading and unloading if needed.
The distance between addresses and the time needed to safely load and unload your items both play a role.
Common Oxford factors to consider
Stairs, lifts, long corridors, tight entrances and parking distance can affect loading time and how your move is carried out.
Peak days and busy time slots can affect both price and availability.
Your route is estimated from your postcodes, but peak-time traffic can still influence travel time between addresses.
Clear pricing, with no hidden extras.
Not sure on timings, van size, or how much help you’ll need? Adding a small buffer upfront is usually easier — and less stressful — than changing things on the day.

Parking restrictions, limited access, or longer walking distances between the property and the van can affect how long a move takes in Oxford.
