Over the years we have been around (since 2008 in fact), we have specialised in house removals in Yorkshire, including Leeds and the surrounding areas. Over time we’ve been able to extend our range of removal and transportation services to help out a much wider range of people, including students and small business owners.
Our removal experts take great pride in all aspects of their work, ensuring a professional service to every single one of customers, no matter the size of the job or the task at hand.
Leeds has many claims to fame, including being the birthplace of Marks and Spencer, fizzy drinks, and Jelly Tots... as a proud local removal company, we like to think of it simply as one of the best cities in the country! With a lovely mix of classical and modern architecture, a thriving student population and more than a hint of that unmistakable Yorkshire character, we’re often to be found in Leeds - for work and for pleasure!
If you’d like to find out the cost of a job we’d love to hear from you! We offer free no-obligation quotes via telephone or our online form.
Start todayAreas like Chapel Allerton and the regenerated Canal Wharf might be pulling in plenty of plaudits, but as anyone that’s spent any time in Leeds knows, this city really does have something for everyone. No wonder then that it was named by The Sunday Times as one of The Best Places to Live.
Whether you’re moving to Leeds for the first time, heading from Holbeck to Meanwood, or even leaving city life behind altogether, 1 Van 1 Man can be of service. With years of removals experience in the Leeds area, our stellar reputation is built on:

Our range of removal Leeds services are tailor made for all of your transportation jobs and moving requirements. Whether you’re looking to move a large item of furniture, or transport valuable business documents, our ‘Man with Van’ options are available at reasonable rates even at short notice.
We can help with:
Over the years we’ve been moving people to and from the University of Leeds, Leeds Beckett and Leeds Art University, we’ve definitely grown to understand the specific needs of students. Whether that’s being available at short notice for emergency moves, or offering student discounts to help those tight budgets stretch that little bit further.
We’ve had the pleasure of helping students move from their family homes across the country to Leeds’ halls of residence, second and third year students move to areas such Headingley, Hyde Park and Woodhouse, and recent graduates move back home again, wherever in the UK that might be.
Our Mercedes Sprinter Luton vans have enough space to move all types of essential items such as beds, cabinets, desks and chairs - we often find that student houses pitch in together to cut the cost per person down even further.
There are several certainties in life, taxes are one, buying too much at IKEA Leeds is definitely another! If you’ve ended up with more than your poor car can handle, don’t worry, just give us a call. Our professional staff and roomy vans will make short work of transporting your purchases - we even offer a flat-pack furniture assembly service.
From the incredible independent nature of areas like The Corn Exchange, Queens Arcade and the magnificent Grade I listed Kirkgate Market, to the high-end splendour of Victoria Leeds and Harvey Nichols, this city has got it all!
Having helped plenty of Leeds businesses over the years, we know that there’s so much more to the city’s commercial community than just retail though.
Please note that although we're based in York, all our services are offered nationwide - including Leeds. It doesn't matter what you're moving, or where you're moving to and from - we have it covered with our highly rated, flexible service.

Excellent Service! I would highly recommend them. We forgot to confirm our removal via email. The day of the removal I woke up at 4.30am with a doubt I realize that the removal firm was indeed not confirmed (my fault). I called the manager Dale who managed to save the day by organising a last-minute team. The guys did a fantastic job, dismantling/reassembling an expensive ottoman bed and taking it up to the second floor through an incredibly tight staircase without a scratch. They wrapped and protected everything, also items which really didn't need any protection. Everything has been moved without a scratch to the furniture and the premises. And the price was not even comparable to other moving companies in York. I have been charged lucrative quotes from other companies, given that we did all the boxes, we had very few furniture (one king bed, a sofa, table and chairs) and the old and new places were just 3 roads away. I could not believe how different the quotes were and I could not understand how to justify such a huge difference. We eventually decided to take the "risk" to go with 1 Van 1 Man Removals who quoted us a fraction of the others. I am so pleased we decided to go with them, I cannot imagine what more they could have done! Highly recommended. Just remember to confirm your booking by email.

We had a great experience moving with this Removals firm we hired in York and would recommend to others. From the efficiency and approachability of the admin team who help us book in to the reliable and cheerful packers and movers of 1 van 1 man. They were prompt, qualified and they made moving to a new house amazingly stress free! Thank you so much, you were all totally amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better service!

My wife and I decided to move out of London to York. We were extremely worried about how we're going to take all our furniture with us all the way to York from London. Fortunately, 1 Van 1 Man Removals are true professional movers. The moving team that showed up on the day was quite competent and very polite. High standard removal service at a fair price. Thanks, guys!

Moved from York to Cambridge, Contacted 6 removal companies within York. But 1 Van 1 Man gave us the best quote including good communication thru emails and phone calls, the process was brilliant. We even ordered boxes through their box shop at the last minute and it was delivered straight to our door on time. Have already recommended this company to all my friends!

Good communication before moving, showed up on time, very well-organized. Moved from a 3-bed semidetached to house in Scotland. They loaded the van on the day and delivered all my household items the next day without damage. Really happy customer, great company, excellent team could not ask for more!

The team arrived on time were very courteous, professional and efficient. While we all knew I was paying by the hour they came in well under other moving companies in York who quoted me fixed prices. I would recommend them and most certainly use them again if needed.

Very easy move with Dale and his lifter n shifter on the day, James. Both really courteous and easy to work with. I had a guy to help me out and they were happy to work with him. I had to move stuff from two locations to a third. All done smoothly and efficiently - everything securely loaded and fixed in the van, everything unloaded to where I wanted it. Dale had also advised me where to get packing materials in York as I'd been let down by a courier. I would recommend 1 Van 1 Man - you get flexible, sympathetic, efficient service at a very good price. What are you waiting for? Move. (I feel well qualified to write this as I have moved 5 times in 12 years and used 5 removal companies including 1van1man)

Mike and Dave made the perfect team to help me move a 2 bed house on my own - After a quick look around and confirming what was going on the van they cracked straight on, dismantling wardrobes that wouldn’t fit down the stairs, loading boxes and negotiating a very large prickly Holly tree (well done Mike, you were a trooper!) Once at my new home they unloaded quickly and efficiently (thanks to Dave’s expert Tetris loading skills) and kept checking in with me where I needed all my furniture and belongings put. This is the second time I have used 1van1man and I will continue to do so. They made the move feel so easy, especially as it was just me as my husband was at work. Friendly, professional and expert furniture dismantle and re-build skills - take the stress out of your move and just get 1van1man. Promise you - they’re ace !

I asked 1 Van 1 Man to deliver my piano to my new place of work, and the service they provided was exceptional. They were very easy to contact, as it ended up being a last-minute arrangement. They delivered it with great care and were very friendly and professional. A great service, and I would highly recommend.
