House removals and man and van hire in Brockenhurst, the village in the heart of the New Forest National Park.
Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Brockenhurst in SO42, the large village in the heart of the New Forest, with its own main line station. Our base in Southampton is about 25–30 minutes away, so we offer house removals, man and van hire, packing and long distance moves from Brockenhurst 7 days a week.


Your local movers
Brockenhurst is one of the largest villages in the New Forest, set in the heart of the National Park. Ponies, donkeys and cattle wander freely through the village and across the open forest around it.
It has a main line railway station with fast trains to Southampton and London, and Brockenhurst College draws students from across the area. The village church of St Nicholas is thought to be one of the oldest in the New Forest.
Brockenhurst moves range from cottages and Victorian villas to family houses and flats near the station. We check access and parking before the day.
Animals have right of way on forest roads, so we allow extra time and drive carefully through the village.

Brockenhurst is in the New Forest district, so council tax and bins are handled by New Forest District Council.

★★★★★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.
