Having children adds a whole new layer of planning into moving house. Not only is there a short term issue - keeping them happy and entertained during the move - you’ve also got long term prospects such as the local neighbourhood and what school they will attend. School catchment areas are crucial to…

In February the Birmingham City Council leader made a public promise to build more houses in the area. That promise is echoed throughout the country, from hamlets and town suburbs to the inner city development areas. The Prime Minister himself has urged local authorities to plan thousands more homes…

It’s a sad but very real part of our society - empty properties dotted around neighbourhoods, blighting the local view with bordered-up windows, overgrown gardens and disused white goods in the front lawn. What a shame. Why Does It Happen? Chiefly, it’s because of bad planning. Landlords, housing…

We don’t choose our neighbours. For better or worse, who lives next door is outside our control - whether Ned Flanders, Margo Leadbetter or Johnny Rotten. Sometimes this leads to fruitful and long-lasting friendships between families. Other times, the so-called ‘neighbours from hell’ can be enough to…

Have you ever had a dispute with your neighbours? It seems that the reality in the UK couldn’t be further away from what the Australian soap would have us believe. Whether it’s noisy pets and children, blocking one another’s driveways or prying nosy eyes when you’re trying to relax in the garden – neighbourly…

Was looking at different moving companies in York and decided to hire 1 Van 1 Man for my move a few months ago. I made the best choice. From my previous hire of other moving company, promises are sometime never kept. This is not the case with this company though. So, I called them for an estimate, they appeared very genuine and gave me a sensible quotation. The movers did arrive on time on moving day. All three lads skilled and know what they were doing which gave me piece of mind. I have a lot of furniture’s, but they were speedy at packing everything. They took care, carrying big pieces of my furniture out of my house without damage to walls or the items and secured them into the vans. All my gear was being taken from York to Scotland, so I was quite worried how they were going to cope with the journey. Appreciatively, all my household items travelled securely, and the transfer of all my items was made on the scheduled date. Fantastic move from the team at 1 van 1 man removals.

Very impressed with their care and friendliness of the moving team who showed up on the day. Highly recommended, we moved from a 4-bed house to a 3 bed, we hired two vans which was in immaculate condition, vans were fully carpeted, and they had all the tools to get the job done, big thank you to whole of the 1 van 1 man family, awesome company to deal with if you need a bespoke service…

Moved house yesterday with this company. They were fabulous. Would recommend them anytime. We had 2 vans, 3 men and a driver. They arrived on time, introduced themselves, shook hands, look neat and tidy and were really polite to us and to each other. We had large wardrobes to dismantle which was done without fuss and they were reassembled at the other end perfectly. No complaints whatsoever.
