Student Moves in Southampton

Student moves are one room's worth of belongings on a tight budget, timed to the university calendar rather than to you, and this service is priced and sized for exactly that. With two universities and street after street of shared houses, Southampton has plenty of them.

Whether you are heading into halls, out to a house share, or home for the summer, we cover Southampton and nearby areas such as Highfield and Swaythling with a van that suits a single room, not a whole family home.

A van sized to one room

You do not need a lorry to move a bed, a desk, a few boxes and a suitcase. We bring a van that fits one room's worth of belongings, which keeps the cost down and gets it done in a single trip. That is the difference between a sensible student move and paying for space you never fill.

If two of you in the same house are both moving, we can often combine the trip and split the cost between you.

Halls, house shares and summer storage

We know the quirks of student housing around Portswood and Highfield: sign-in desks, shared lifts, narrow corridors and strict move-in windows. We work inside them so you are not left outside your block with your life in boxes. Between tenancies over the summer, we can also run things to or from a storage unit.

Tell us the building and the floor and we plan the carry to match.

Booking around term dates

Everyone moves in the same September fortnight, and again as tenancies turn over across the summer, and those dates book out fast. The pricing stays steady rather than climbing in the peak week.

Give us your move date as soon as you have it and we hold a slot for you.

A budget you can plan around

Student pricing is kept simple: the size of the load and the distance, nothing hidden. No membership, no admin fee and no surprise charge when we pull up.

Frequently asked questions

Do you move single rooms?+

Yes, single-room moves are one of our most common jobs. We bring a right-sized van so you are not paying for space you do not need.

Can two of us split a move?+

If you are in the same house and moving on the same day, we can often combine the trip and split the cost. Ask when you book.

Can you move things into storage?+

Yes, we can run belongings to or from a storage unit, which is handy between tenancies over the summer.

Which university areas do you cover?+

The halls and shared houses attached to either university, right through Highfield, Portswood and Swaythling. Those runs are short, which keeps the price down.

How early do I need to book for September?+

Earlier than feels necessary. That fortnight is the busiest of our year and the good slots go weeks ahead, so the moment the university or your landlord gives you a date, send it over.

Can you take everything home when I finish?+

Yes. A room's worth back to your parents, anywhere in the country, is quoted as a single trip rather than by the mile. Give us both postcodes and we will price it.
