House moves. Single items. Anything considered.
108 combined reviews, 4.9 stars, licensed waste carrier and fully insured — with evenings and weekends covered when you need us.
Smiths Van Man started in 2019 as a simple promise: turn up on time, look after people's belongings like they were our own, and charge a fair price. Six years and 108 reviews later that hasn't changed.
We're a family operation based in Belle Isle, LS10 — not a national chain pretending to be local. That means flexible bookings (yes, including evenings and weekends), an actual person answering the phone, and a van that pulls up when we said it would. Bereavement clearances, last-minute single items, motorbike recoveries — if it can fit in the van, we'll consider it.
Seven core services, one phone number, one family. Whatever you need moving in or around Leeds — just ask.
Full small-to-medium house moves across Leeds. Careful, methodical, no surprise charges — we quote what we mean.
Studio, one-beds, top-floor walk-ups — we know Leeds stairwells inside out. Lift access? Tight street parking? We'll work it out.
Sofa from Facebook Marketplace? Wardrobe from IKEA? White goods? One-item, one-trip jobs — often same-day.
Big sofas, three-piece suites, beds, dining tables, pianos — carefully wrapped, properly strapped, treated like our own.
A respectful, patient, discreet service for the hardest jobs. We'll work at your pace and handle clearance properly.
House clearances, garden waste, end-of-tenancy junk — we're EA-licensed (CBDU481655) so it's gone legally, not fly-tipped.
Broken-down bike at the side of the road? Awkward eBay collection? Ramp + straps + a friendly pair of hands. If you're not sure whether we'll do it — just ask. The answer is usually yes.
From single-item runs to full house moves — a quick look at the kind of work we get up to most weeks across Leeds.
"Booked Smiths for a last-minute flat move in Holbeck and I'm so glad I did. Turned up early, friendly as anything, careful with my furniture and the price was fair. Will use again no question."
"Needed a sofa picking up in Pudsey and dropping in Beeston same day. Smith was sorted within two hours, polite, professional, on time. Even helped me get it through a tight doorway. Cracking service."
"Used Smiths for my mum's house clearance after she passed. Cannot fault them — respectful, patient, took the time we needed and didn't rush us once. Genuinely lovely people doing a tough job properly."
"Three-bed house move from Morley to Garforth, done in a single afternoon. Smith and his lad worked their socks off. Properly careful with all the boxes and the price was honestly half what the big firms quoted. Recommended."
"Friendly, fair, and on time. That's what you want from a man with a van and that's exactly what you get. Did a Saturday evening run for me when no one else would — absolute legend."

We're set up for small to medium loads — flats, smaller houses, single items, room-by-room moves. If you've got a 4-bed mansion's worth, we'll tell you straight and help you find someone with a bigger truck. Send us a quick list or photo and we'll let you know.
Yes — that's one of the main reasons we exist. Lots of folks can't move during 9-to-5 because of work, schools, or new tenancy start dates. We'll do early mornings, late evenings, Saturdays and Sundays. Same price, no weekend surcharges.
It means we're registered with the Environment Agency (CBDU481655) to legally transport and dispose of waste. So when we clear out your old furniture, garden waste or end-of-tenancy junk, it goes to a licensed facility and there's a paper trail — not down a country lane. Most man-with-vans don't have this. We do.
Yep — goods-in-transit and public liability cover for every job. If anything goes wrong (touch wood, in six years it's been very rare), you're not left out of pocket. Happy to share certificate details on request before you book.
Often yes, depending on what's already booked in. If you've had a removals firm cancel on you, picked up a Marketplace bargain, or just need something shifted today — ring us. If we can fit you in, we will. If we can't, we'll be honest about it.
No hazardous waste (paints, chemicals, asbestos, fridges with gas), no live animals, and we'll politely decline anything we don't think we can move safely. Beyond that — ask. Payment: cash on completion, bank transfer, or card. Whatever's easiest for you.
From LS10 we cover every Leeds postcode for moves, deliveries and clearances. Outside the list? Just ask — we routinely run further afield for the right job.
