About Man with Van Clerkenwell
Man with Van Clerkenwell is a local removal company rooted in the heart of Clerkenwell, providing a trusted area removal service for homes, flats and businesses. From the cobbled streets around Exmouth Market to Farringdon Road, from the estates off Clerkenwell Road to the creative studios near Old Street, we help our neighbours move quickly, safely and responsibly.
Our Story
Our journey began over a decade ago with a single van, a strong back and a simple idea: offer a reliable, honest and affordable Man with Van Clerkenwell service that treats every move as if it were our own. We started by helping friends and small businesses move between Clerkenwell’s converted warehouses and Victorian terraces, and word of mouth spread through local streets like Rosebery Avenue, St John Street and Goswell Road.
As demand for a dependable removal company in the area grew, so did our team and our fleet. We invested in modern, well maintained vehicles and professional moving equipment, while always keeping our local, friendly approach at the heart of what we do. Today, we are proud to be recognised as a trusted Man with Van Clerkenwell service used by residents, students, professionals and small businesses across EC1 and surrounding postcodes.
Years of Local Experience
With many years of continuous operation in and around Clerkenwell, we understand the unique character and challenges of the area. Narrow streets, controlled parking zones, one way systems and busy commuter routes around Farringdon Station, Angel and King’s Cross are all part of our daily routine.
Our experience moving clients in and out of local developments such as the Brunswick Estate, the Kingsway Place conversions and the blocks off Mount Pleasant means we know how to plan efficiently, avoid unnecessary delays and keep disruption to neighbours and local businesses to a minimum. This local knowledge is at the core of our area removal service.
Licensed and Responsible Waste Handling
As a professional removal company in the area, we take our legal and environmental responsibilities seriously. Man with Van Clerkenwell is fully licensed by the Environment Agency to carry and dispose of waste. This means any unwanted items, old furniture or packaging generated during your move are handled in a responsible, compliant way.
We regularly work with local borough recycling centres serving Clerkenwell and the wider Islington and Camden areas. When we clear items that cannot be reused, they are taken to authorised facilities where they can be sorted, recycled or disposed of safely. Our Environment Agency licensing gives customers the peace of mind that their belongings and any waste are managed with care and integrity.
Trained and Professional Staff
Our Man with Van Clerkenwell team is made up of trained, experienced movers who understand that a successful move is about more than just lifting and loading. Every member of staff receives training in safe handling techniques, protecting property, and customer care.
Whether we are navigating stairwells in period mansion blocks near Sadler’s Wells Theatre, moving bulky furniture through modern developments off City Road, or carefully loading artwork and equipment from offices around Clerkenwell Green, our team works with precision and respect. Uniformed staff, punctual arrivals and clear communication are standard on every job.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide a dependable Man with Van Clerkenwell service that combines local knowledge, professional standards and genuine care for the community and environment. We aim to be the first choice removal company in the area for anyone who values transparency, reliability and a personal touch.
We believe moving does not have to be stressful. By offering flexible scheduling, fair and clear pricing, and helpful guidance from first enquiry to final unload, we make removals as straightforward as possible for our customers, whether they are moving within Clerkenwell or to and from nearby districts such as Holborn, Angel, Barbican or Bloomsbury.
Eco Responsibility and Recycling Partnerships
Environmental responsibility sits at the centre of how we operate. Living and working in Clerkenwell, we see how valuable our green spaces and streets are, from Spa Fields Park to the small gardens tucked behind residential blocks. We want to keep our area clean and sustainable for future generations.
Our eco commitments include careful route planning to reduce unnecessary mileage, regular maintenance of our vehicles for better fuel efficiency, and the use of reusable protective materials where possible. We prioritise recycling and reuse, sorting items so they can be donated, repurposed or recycled rather than sent straight to landfill.

We have supported local initiatives, from helping community groups move equipment for events in Spa Fields, to assisting start ups and small studios relocate within the creative quarter around Clerkenwell Road and Old Street. Being a dependable area removal service is not only about moving boxes; it is about supporting the everyday life of our neighbourhood.
Many of our customers come back to us each time they move, or recommend Man with Van Clerkenwell to friends and colleagues. These long term relationships, built over years of reliable service, are the foundation of our reputation.
