One van isn't always enough
A 3-bed family home typically needs two Luton vans, not one. Our calculator factors in property size, access and packing to recommend a realistic crew and vehicle setup — so your estimate matches what UK movers actually quote.
- Studio / 1-bed — 1 Luton van, 2 movers
- 2–3 bed — 1–2 Luton vans, 2–3 movers
- 4+ bed — 2–3 Luton vans, 3+ movers
Stairs, floors and access matter
Carrying a sofa up three flights with no lift takes longer than a ground-floor load — and that time shows up in your final price. The calculator asks about floor level and lift availability at both ends so the estimate reflects real on-site conditions.
Protection that DIY can't match
Verified UK movers wrap furniture in protective covers, secure loads with straps, and use trolleys, blankets and fragile tape — so your belongings arrive in the same condition they left. Our partner network is vetted and insured.
