When people in Bristol call Man in Van in Bristol, they’re not just booking a van — they’re trusting a small, dedicated team to handle one of life’s most stressful days with care, flexibility and good humour. Every move is different, and that’s what makes our work rewarding. Today, we’re lifting the curtain on two recent home removals Bristol customers that show how we plan, problem-solve and deliver great service from start to finish.

Earlier this autumn, our team helped Emma, a Bristol local, move from her home on Concorde Drive in Westbury-on-Trym to a peaceful countryside property near Chilworth, just outside Guildford. It was a big day, with two vans booked and a long drive ahead — but careful planning made all the difference.

The Bristol side of the job started early, close to Blaise Castle Estate, where we could enjoy the morning light before loading. Emma’s drive offered one handy parking space close to the door, and we made sure our second van could safely park nearby without blocking anyone in. Our team always checks for legal, safe parking in advance — avoiding any last-minute worries or tickets.

Inside, the move was a classic bulky-furniture job: three bookcases, four mattresses, two chests of drawers, and even a dismantled bunk bed. We bring all the right tools to disassemble and reassemble furniture as needed, so nothing has to be forced through narrow doorways. Everything was wrapped, padded and labelled, then loaded in a logical order so unloading at the other end was smooth.

After a well-earned coffee stop on the M4, we reached the long, tree-lined driveway at Longfrey Farm. The rural setting meant plenty of space to park and unload, and Emma was thrilled to see how efficiently everything came together. Before we left, we helped set up the double bed and desk so she could settle in that same evening. It’s that extra attention to detail — making the new place liveable, not just leaving boxes — that defines how Man in Van in Bristol operates. It’s one of the reasons so many people recommend us for house removals in Bristol and beyond.

A week later, James contacted us with a slightly different challenge. He needed help collecting items from Access Self Storage on Winterstoke Road, near Ashton Gate Stadium, and delivering them to his new home in North London. Storage moves can be unpredictable — you never quite know what level your unit is on or how much space you’ll need — but that’s where experience and flexibility come in.

We met James early in the morning to collect the storage keys, checked in with the staff, and confirmed that there was a commercial lift available. Having a clear plan made all the difference: one van, a careful load, and smart use of blankets and straps to protect the pine dining table and washing machine.

James also had a second pickup: a large framed artwork waiting at a friend’s house nearby. No problem — we built the route in advance to minimise time and mileage. Once everything was secured, we hit the motorway toward London.

The delivery address was a ground-floor flat in Tottenham, with both front and rear access. Parking in London can be tricky, but James had arranged a visitor permit through Haringey Council, so we could park legally right outside. We unloaded efficiently, helped position the furniture, and made sure everything was spotless before finishing the job. It’s the sort of detailed planning and care that sets us apart from other house movers in Bristol, and something we’re genuinely proud of.
