Hackney is a dense inner London borough where many moves involve flats, maisonettes, and shared residential buildings with limited on-street parking. Busy residential streets and short stopping windows mean loading often needs to be planned carefully, especially for smaller or time-sensitive moves.
Many moves in Hackney are short-distance residential jobs within E8 and neighbouring East London areas. Our platform lets you compare available man and van drivers serving the borough, choose the right van size and level of help, and receive a quote based on the specific details of your move. This works well locally, where parking restrictions or loading distance can influence how a job is carried out, and makes it straightforward to book a man with a van suited to Hackney’s apartment-led housing.

Got the job done in record time, even in pouring rain
Friendly, helpful
Stayed in contact with us, was very helpful and friendly
Arrived early, very friendly would recommend to anyone. Thanks again Edward!
Service was good, but I was charged quite extortionate £40 just because I had too many items. Especially since online a one size bigger van would only cost £15 more. I booked a medium van and got an xl one.
