Maybush · SO16 · Est. 2010
Flat moves, house removals and collections across Maybush on the west side of Southampton, from a local team based on Hill Lane.
Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Maybush in SO16, including the streets around the Maybush shopping parade and the roads towards Coxford, Millbrook and Redbridge. Our base on Hill Lane is 5–10 minutes away, so we offer man and van hire, flat and house removals and collections in Maybush 7 days a week.


Your local movers
Maybush is a residential district on the western side of Southampton, between Shirley, Coxford, Millbrook and Redbridge. It was once home to the Ordnance Survey's head office, and today it's mostly family houses and flats around a local shopping parade.
Moves here are usually a mix of family houses and flats. For houses we plan street parking, and for flats we check stairs and access before the day.
Many Maybush moves are short trips to Shirley, Millbrook, Lordshill or Totton. These are often done in a morning, and our man and van service is charged by the hour.
We also collect single items, Marketplace buys and flat-pack furniture in Maybush, and deliver anywhere in Southampton and Hampshire, often the same day.

★★★★★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.
