House removals and man and van hire in Dibden and Dibden Purlieu, between Hythe and the open New Forest.
Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Dibden in SO45, including Dibden Purlieu, between Hythe and the New Forest. Our base in Southampton is about 25 minutes away, so we offer house removals, man and van hire, packing and long distance moves from Dibden 7 days a week.


Your local movers
Dibden is an old village above Southampton Water, with its parish church of All Saints. Its larger neighbour, Dibden Purlieu, grew up on the edge of the forest and is now a busy residential area next to Hythe.
The open heath of the New Forest begins just west of Dibden Purlieu, making it a popular place for families who want the forest on their doorstep.
Most Dibden and Dibden Purlieu moves are family houses and bungalows, usually with drives. We give fixed quotes for full house removals.
Dibden Purlieu sits just off the A326, so moves to Hythe, Totton and Southampton are easy to plan.

★★★★★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.
