House removals and man and van hire in Netley, the village on the shore of Southampton Water, from the abbey to the Royal Victoria Country Park.
Yes. Man and a Van Southampton covers all of Netley in SO31, the village on Southampton Water, home of Netley Abbey and the Royal Victoria Country Park. Our base in Southampton is about 25 minutes away, so we offer house removals, man and van hire, packing and long distance moves from Netley 7 days a week.
Your local movers
Netley sits on the eastern shore of Southampton Water, between Weston and Hamble. It's best known for Netley Abbey, the ruins of a Cistercian abbey founded in the 13th century, now cared for by English Heritage.
The village grew around the huge Royal Victoria Military Hospital, opened in the 1860s. The hospital was demolished in the 1960s, apart from its chapel, and the grounds are now the Royal Victoria Country Park.
Netley has Victorian terraces and villas from the hospital era, as well as newer family homes and flats in the former hospital grounds. We check access for each before the day.
Netley is a short drive from Woolston and the city, and has its own railway station, so local moves are quick to plan.

The abbey ruins sit by the shore, close to quiet residential streets.
Newer homes in the former hospital grounds usually have parking bays, which keeps loading quick.
Netley is in the Borough of Eastleigh, so council tax and bins are handled by Eastleigh Borough Council.

★★★★★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.
