Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Redbridge in SO16, including the estate, the tower block, and the streets around Redbridge station and the River Test crossing.

Your local movers
Redbridge sits at the mouth of the River Test, about three miles west of Southampton city centre. Its name comes from the old reed ford across the river, and in the 18th and 19th centuries it was a busy trading post and shipbuilding centre.
Today it's mainly residential, with a large council estate and a tower block, plus industry and the docks close by. For flats we check lifts and stairwells in advance, and for houses we plan where the van can stop.
The A35 crosses the River Test at Redbridge into Totton, so moves between Redbridge, Totton and the New Forest are short and simple.
Redbridge is where the M271 begins, so moves to Romsey, the M27 and beyond get on the motorway quickly.
