House removals and man and van hire in Lymington, the Georgian market town and sailing harbour on the edge of the New Forest.
Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Lymington in SO41, the Georgian market and sailing town on the Lymington River. Our base in Southampton is about 40 minutes away, so we offer house removals, man and van hire, packing and long distance moves from Lymington 7 days a week.


Your local movers
Lymington is a market town on the west bank of the Lymington River, between the New Forest and the Solent. Its wide High Street, lined with Georgian buildings, runs down to the cobbled Quay Hill and the harbour.
The town has held a Saturday market for centuries, and ferries cross from Lymington to Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight. Two large marinas make it one of the south coast's best-known sailing towns.
Moves in the old town often mean Georgian houses and cottages with narrow stairs and tight access, while outer areas have family homes with drives. We plan for each.
The High Street is busy, especially on Saturday market days, so we agree where the van will stop and plan loading times.

Local know-how
Lymington has its own streets, buildings and rules. Here's what we plan for.
Cobbled streets near the quay are narrow and steep, so we plan the van size and parking.
The High Street market on Saturdays means busy streets, so we plan around it.
Lymington is in the New Forest district, so council tax and bins are handled by New Forest District Council.
Parking tip: if the van needs to stop on a council road in Lymington, contact New Forest District 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.
