House removals and man and van hire in Holbury, the Waterside village between Hythe and Fawley.
Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Holbury in SO45, the village between Hythe and Fawley on the Waterside. 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 Holbury 7 days a week.


Your local movers
Holbury is a village on the Waterside, between Hythe and Fawley, and part of Fawley parish. Much of it was built in the mid-20th century as the refinery and the industries around it grew.
Today it's a residential village with local shops, schools and easy access to the open New Forest and the shore at Ashlett Creek.
Most Holbury moves are family houses, semis and bungalows, usually with drives or on-street parking. We give fixed quotes for full house removals.
Holbury sits just off the A326, so moves to Hythe, Totton and Southampton are simple 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.
