Man With A Van
Tell us what you're moving and where, and we'll send you a personalized quote; with straight forward hourly pricing (and few extras - no "stairs" or "long-carry" fees, no 4-hour minimums, etc.). We're a local, full-service, moving company that's been providing fast, friendly, professional moving services since the beginning of the century.

Whether you need to move a single item, a full apartment or an office, we will handle your items with TLC. Whether you're "moving on up!", downsizing, or just moving your "stuff" around town, we can accommodate your needs. For smaller jobs - like that craigslist purchase, maybe an IKEA pickup, a studio or small one bedroom apartment - we have cargo vans.

For larger jobs, we use box trucks up to 26'. On smaller jobs, if you're timing is flexible, we can often accommodate "last minute bookings". For small office moves or as a delivery vehicle for catering companies, restaurants, artists and artisans, our Sprinter vans are ideal. Our larger box-trucks are available for moving large items, and larger numbers of desks, boxes or filing cabinets.
Services
Starting in 2000 with a single van in NYC - offering cargo delivery, and quickly moving into household moving - Paul Kennedy built Man With A Van into a multi-location business that now operates 25 vehicles in New York and Philadelphia.
Man With A Van is a team of movers that has provided fast, friendly, skillful moving services since 1999. Whether you're moving a studio apartment, an entire office, or just a single piece of furniture, Man With A Van is the moving company you can trust to complete a flawless move. Whether you're "moving on up!", downsizing, or just moving your "stuff" around town, we can accommodate your needs.
What exactly do you do? We are a full service mover - licensed and insured. We can deliver a couple of boxes, single items of furniture - such as that sofa you just bought on Craigslist - or move your entire apartment or office. Our fleet is a mix of Mercedes Benz Sprinter vans and box trucks. The Sprinter vans are HUGE; the cargo area is 14' long x 6.5' high x 6' wide, and our box trucks have up to a 26' cargo area.

I've used Man with a Van several times, and I have consistently been impressed at their strong value, fast communication and reliable execution. For my last move, I had an issue where the movers accidentally broke my monitor, and the company was very responsive and understanding in resolving the issue. Would not hesitate to use them again and recommend them to others.

Man with Van tried to change my time from 9 am to 8 am even though I told them my building wouldn't start the elevator that early. I had to cancel the order. But may not get my deposit back.

Mark and Calvin were punctual and very professional overall, communicating their ETA and matching it. They were thoughtful and tried to keep me from helping out as I really needed thing to move as fast as possible. I still did a lot to move things along (that's me). Both were really friendly and helpful. We wrapped up a smallish art studio move into a storage space in 3h. I'd definitely recommend them and will probably use them again in the future.

DO NOT USE THEM!!! They are very unprofessional and pass the Job to sub contractors. I booked them for morning and they were 4 and half hours late. My driver kept giving me false information about his ETA. He kept saying 10mins -15mins n stuck in traffic. The lady from the office wasn't helpful either n put the phone down on me. I wouldn't even rate them 1 star. So DONT waste your time booking them n look for someone professional.
Thanks

My removal company let me down last minute. My aunt contacted supermanwithvan via their live online chat. She was told the move could be done this evening. I called the Walthamcross branch to confirm my details and address. The woman who answered the phone was very dismissive and wanted to know who my aunt had spoken with and said they could not do the move without me even giving her any details yet . I called my aunt to confirm who she spoke with. When I called back the lady, as soon as she heard my voice she said ‘ I spoke to you already, we can’t do it’ and hung the phone up on me. I called

What a fantastic experience! I needed a large dining room table and a bunch of chairs moved from NYC to New Jersey. I had the move booked and accomplished in under a week with very little effort and no issues. They showed up when they said they would show up, they did what they said they were going to do, they charged what they said they were going to charge. They were incredibly responsive about everything, easy to communicate with, and did an incredible job. It was an absolute pleasure.

I am delighted with the service I received. With the other company not turning up and me left day before removal day with no way of moving my items, i was worried about booking another. However, from the point of booking online, Razvan was on hand, online and text to talk me through booking, and I got an immediate booking confirmation.
The gentleman that came to move the items was early, extremely professional and helpful. Nothing was too much to ensure we were happy with the service we received.
I would highly recommend this company for all your removal needs, great value for money. I even chased

Everyone I dealt with from requesting a quote, dealing with the COI and the delivery were very professional and so nice. I was trying to coordinate a move for my daughter and they were so understanding and helpful. My daughter said the 2 guys were so nice and helpful and took the Funiture apart to get it down the hall and put it back together. I would highly recommend using them!

Simply THE BEST moving company. I had used Man With A Van 3 years ago for a move within New York City and love them! This time around we found ourselves having to plan a move in 2 days and Man With A Van came to the rescue! They were EXTREMELY responsive to emails, weren't pushy, had really fair prices, and most importantly mover FAST. Our two movers were super fun and friendly, and took great care of our stuff. Can't recommend them enough!

They got the job done and the drivers are nice - but they milked every minute for all it was worth. We were headed about 50 miles away in NJ. It's a trip that took me 50 minutes going the speed limit. It took my drivers 100 minutes.

I ended up moving half of the furniture to the street myself because the drivers just stood around or sat in the truck for an extra 30 or 40 minutes.

QUOTE
Watch out for hidden fees. When you request a quote, you won't be given the full price. You'll be quoted a price MINUS tolls and random surcharges like "commercial vehicles entering

DO NOT USE Man With A Van!!
The movers were just contractors and this is the second time I had horrible experience with them. Last time they broke my TV. I decided to give Man with A Van a second chance cuz it was a very last minute booking.

They broke the floor and after I mentioned about the damage on the floor they straight out denied it. They loaded up the truck like throwing trash into a van. Most of my furnitures were slight damaged, with some completely broken.

I contacted the customer service and it's been almost a month and still no response.

See picture below!!

Leo and Mikey were amazing! They called ahead of time and communicated their exact ETA and arrived in the early part of the window time frame. They worked extremely fast and very efficiently, wrapped everything and were so careful and considerate with my things. Would 1000% recommend Leo, Mikey and Man with a Van to anyone moving.

They called day of to say they were having issues and would I mind if they came a bit later than originally planned. I said it was fine and to my surprise they showed up earlier than expected. They were courteous, professional and quick.

Great service I called last minute and had a van in two hours.
The driver who helped me move was a machine and very experienced on how to get furniture in and out, he went out his way to help me move as I was on my own and he tried to do it as quick and safely as possible. Highly recommend I was sceptical at first with booking as they want a deposit but by far the cheapest quote I found, other companies wanted more than 300 I only paid 145, considering it would have cost me 100 to rent my own van, this was a bargain plus I got a great guy to help me, we had a full load Luton van and completed

Paul did jack shieeet. typical. promised fixes and refund then said "let me get back to you" never did. His "I dont know who this is, not sure it's my company" is apparently a classic go-to. We are still living with furniture has guys dented scratched in a 13 hour 4 block move. total joke and liar. been using FlatRate ever since. Not an ad for them, but my new go-to for sure.

Run away as fast as you can.

Used this company twice and it was a huge and costly mistake. They subcontract the crews so despite having scheduled and confirming a move weeks in advance they will call you at the last minute telling you that they will be several hours late. They'll lie and say that they are only a few minutes out but they may switch crews at the last minute so they can be traveling from East bumbublefuk so your move may or may not happen.

To make matters worse they will start the clock early, charge you extra for non associated travel fees before they arrive, extra times

Incredible job and a company with great people.

I called to get a quote, gave them my information, but at the time, I didn't have a specific move date yet. When I did, I only had 5 days to organize everything and the Man with a Van team helped me through the arrangements within an hour. They even facilitated me getting the necessary insurance documents my destination building required within a day. Luis & Nicholas showed up promptly, worked diligently, and made a painful process (I loathe moving probably more than the average person) fairly easy for me. Would absolutely use the company

I used Superman with a Van yesterday; and I would definitely recommend them. The quote was reasonable for an out-of-county removals job, and they advise that insurance is in place to cover your items in transit.
The office personnel was excellent and I preferred to speak with her; she was very helpful and supportive, professional very polite - fabulous 👍
The removals team were punctual, professional, courteous and communicated with me very clearly and politely. They made short work of the removals and unloading putting items wherever they needed to be, great guys - excellent! 👌

This was my second time moving with them. The movers are still great and got the job done quickly. I guess due to covid they raised their prices but the same move cost twice as much or more than last year, including a $150 travel charge which was $25 last year. Furthermore, the $150 travel charge does not cover tolls. The same one bed move cost was higher, from $120 to $150 per hr. They told us if we wanted to move on the 31st or the 1st then it would be $180. With the $15 tolls, 1.5hrs of two men labor $225 and $150 travel charge the total came out to $390+tips.

I used them as movers yesterday. My TV looked fine from the outside but when I turned it on it showed the image I posted. When I contacted them they essentially said sorry about that but nothing we can do. What kind of dishonest company is this? No wonder they left in a hurry after they were done and had me sign the contract before I could test everything. Beware of using them because now I'm out 600$. I even tipped them because they seemingly did a great job. Never again

I see Paul the owner stated I was never a client. He left me a message 07/2019 stating he was gone

Summary: Mid Feb (pre-COVID) hired MWV for quick,local Manhattan move. FOUR months later and still *hundreds or dollars* for damaged furniture costing more than the move itself. As movers left I realized they hadn't unwrapped all furniture. I found significant damage to a solid wood, designer dresser. In providing prompt photos to Paul, he agreed it was unrepairable and to compensate me for the full cost. Instead shady, dishonest business practices

Instead Paul started dodging my emails and calls to follow up when reimbursement wasn't sent. Emails ignored, on the phone he alternated
