    Service Stories

    Here’s a look at some real stories 📖 from out in the field — from house removals across LE1, LE2 and LE3 to single-item moves out to Wigston and beyond. These snapshots give you a feel for who we are, how we work, and the care and attention we put into every job here at Your Man With A Van Leicester 👌

    Jungle Run

    Jungle Run

    One move that stands out was a job relocating a number of junior trees and huge indoor plants, the kind, that made the back of the van feel like you were deep in the Amazon.

    The catch: the only way to the garden was straight through the customer’s house. And of course, when say straight through, it was more of a squiggle through. Each turn required some serious concentration with branches rubbing against our faces to not scratch the walls or knock the clock off the mantle piece. It certainly took patience, good teamwork, and a few creative manoeuvres, but at the end, not a single leaf was out of place. The client was very pleased.

    That day, our green thumbs got a proper workout!

    quad bikes in the van

    A happy ending 😁

    What started as a simple job turned into one of my favourite stories so far. A customer asked me to take him up to a manufacturer depot near Coventry to return his child’s large toy jeep because it had an electrical fault.

    It sounded straightforward enough—but the day resulted in something quite surprising, and a show of excellent customer service from a fellow business owner. Instead of the typical leave it with us for a few months and we’ll see what we can do, it turned into a wonderful solution.

    We might have had a word with the manager “consider the children”.

    Instead of coming back empty-handed, we returned with not one but two brand-new quad bikes! The customer was over the moon, grinning from ear to ear, thanking us for our input.

    A small trip, but a big win!

    Looks like you have your hands full!

    Another time we were moving a lovely single mum of three young children under four, (hats off to her). Anyway she was relocating from Nuneaton to a new area and juggling so much on her own. Beyond loading and unloading, she needed help dismantling and rebuilding beds and wardrobes — which we gladly accommodated, no extra charge necessary.

    We even plumbed in her washing machine so she could settle in right away. Seeing her relief and gratitude made every extra minute worthwhile.

    It reminded us that small gestures can make a big difference. Her heartfelt review later confirmed it — we’d truly made her day ❤️

    Patience is a virtue

    One move that really stands out, started early but went well into the night because of huge delays in a long property chain. It wasn’t until the evening that our customer received their keys, and although it could have been a very stressful day indeed, we remained cool, calm, and collected throughout. We reassured them that we’d see it through, no matter how long it took.

    When the doors finally opened, everything moved in smoothly, the relief was so clear. They left us a glowing 5-star review, praising our patience and professionalism — and to this day, they still like our posts!

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much does a man with a van in Leicester typically cost?
      Pricing varies depending on the size of your move, the distance we’re covering and any extras like packing support. We keep things transparent — no hidden fees, no last-minute additions. The best way to get an accurate price is to use the quote form below and Ian will get back to you quickly with a figure that’s fair and tailored to your job.
      Which postcodes and areas do you serve?
      Our home patch is LE1, LE2, LE3, LE4, LE5, and we regularly cover Wigston, Oadby, Birstall and the surrounding areas. We’re also happy to take on longer-distance moves — so if your route goes beyond Wigston, just ask. We’ll always be upfront about what’s possible.
      Can you help with packing as well as the move itself?
      Absolutely. We offer a full packing service — from carefully wrapping fragile items to boxing up entire rooms. It’s a great option if you’re short on time or just want to take the stress out of the whole process. Let us know when you enquire and we’ll include it in your quote.
      Is my furniture and belongings covered during transit?
      Yes — goods-in-transit insurance is included as standard with every move we carry out in Leicester and the surrounding area. Your belongings are in safe hands throughout the entire journey. Got anything particularly valuable or fragile? Just flag it when you book and we’ll take extra care.
      How early do I need to book a van in Leicester?
      We’d always recommend booking as soon as you have a confirmed date — particularly for Fridays, weekends and the end of the month when demand is highest. If you’re in a pinch and need something at short notice, it’s always worth getting in touch as we do sometimes have availability. Just don’t leave it too long!
      What happens on the day of my move?
      We turn up on time — that’s a given. Ian and the team will load everything carefully and methodically, making sure nothing gets damaged in transit. At the other end, we’ll unload and place items where you need them. If packing was part of your booking, we’ll have been with you beforehand to get everything ready. Simple, professional and stress-free.
