Winchester · SO23 · Est. 2010
House removals, flat moves and collections in Winchester city centre, from the Cathedral Close and the High Street to St Cross and the station.
Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Winchester in SO23, the historic city centre around the Cathedral, the High Street and Winchester College. Our base in Southampton is about 30 minutes away, so we offer house removals, man and van hire, packing and long distance moves from Winchester 7 days a week.


Your local movers
Winchester was the ancient capital of Wessex, and King Alfred's statue still stands at the bottom of The Broadway. The city centre is built around its great Norman cathedral, the medieval High Street with its Buttercross, and the Great Hall, home of the famous Round Table.
Winchester College, founded in 1382, sits just south of the Cathedral, and the River Itchen runs along the eastern edge of the centre. Much of the centre is a conservation area full of listed buildings.
City centre moves often mean Georgian townhouses, cottages and flats on narrow streets, with steep stairs and tight turns. We bring the right crew, protect floors and doorways, and dismantle large furniture where needed.
Most central streets have permit or pay and display parking, and the High Street is largely pedestrianised. We check where the van can stop before the day, and tell you if a parking bay suspension is needed.

Local know-how
Winchester has its own streets, buildings and rules. Here's what we plan for.
Streets around the Cathedral and the High Street are narrow and busy, so we plan loading times carefully.
Central streets use permit and pay and display parking, so we check where the van can stop before the day.
Winchester is in the City of Winchester district, so council tax and bins are handled by Winchester City Council.
Parking tip: if the van needs to stop on a council road in Winchester, contact Winchester City Council in advance about a parking bay suspension, and tell us where the van can stop.

★★★★★I used this to move within Southampton, and then out of Southampton a few years later, and both times it was a very positive experience. From first message to the last box leaving the truck, I was assured about the move.
