House removals and man and van hire in Ashurst, the New Forest village on the A35 between Totton and Lyndhurst.
Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Ashurst in SO40, the New Forest village on the A35 between Totton and Lyndhurst. Our base in Southampton is about 15–20 minutes away, so we offer house removals, man and van hire, packing and long distance moves from Ashurst 7 days a week.
Your local movers
Ashurst sits on the eastern edge of the New Forest National Park, on the A35 between Totton and Lyndhurst. It has its own railway station, Ashurst New Forest, on the main line to Bournemouth.
Forest ponies and cattle often graze on the open land around the village, and the campsite and woodland walks make it a popular gateway to the forest.
Ashurst moves include cottages, bungalows and family homes, some down forest tracks. We check access and parking before the day and choose the right van.
Animals roam freely on New Forest roads, so we drive carefully and allow a little extra time.

★★★★★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.
