About Man with Van Islington

Man with Van Islington is a locally rooted removal company providing a reliable man and van service across Islington and the surrounding areas. From small flat moves off Upper Street to full house removals near Highbury Fields and Angel, our team delivers a friendly, efficient and eco-conscious area removal service you can trust.

Our Story as a Local Islington Removal Company

Man with Van Islington began more than a decade ago with a single van based near Caledonian Road. Our founder, a long-time Islington resident, started helping neighbours move between flats around Essex Road, Holloway Road and Canonbury. What began as occasional weekend jobs soon grew into a dedicated local removal company as word spread about our reliable and personable service.

Over the years, we have helped students move in and out of halls near London Metropolitan University, families relocate between estates around Barnsbury and Mildmay, and businesses shift offices near Old Street and Clerkenwell. Because we live and work here, we understand the parking challenges, one-way systems and controlled parking zones that define many Islington streets, from Liverpool Road to Blackstock Road.

Today, our man with van teams operate across the borough and beyond, but our heart still lies in Islington. We are proud to be known as a genuine local removal company with deep roots in the community we serve.

Years of Experience in Area Removal Service

For over ten years, Man with Van Islington has specialised in flexible, customer-focused area removal service. We handle everything from single-item furniture moves from flats near Angel Station to full multi-van removals from townhouses close to Highbury Corner.

Because we have been operating in Islington for so long, we know the best times to move along Holloway Road, how to navigate narrow streets off Newington Green, and how to approach estates and mansion blocks with limited access. Our experience in this area removal service means fewer delays, smoother moves and a more stress-free day for you.

Environment Agency Licensed and Responsible

As a professional removal company, Man with Van Islington is fully licensed with the Environment Agency to carry waste. This matters whenever there are unwanted items, packaging, broken furniture or old appliances that need to be cleared as part of a move.

Our Environment Agency registration means your items will never be fly-tipped or dumped illegally around Islington streets, parks or estates. We are committed to lawful and traceable disposal, giving you peace of mind that your move is handled both professionally and responsibly.

Trained and Professional Staff

Every member of the Man with Van Islington team is carefully trained in safe lifting, packing and loading techniques. We understand how to move belongings through tight stairwells in Victorian conversions near Amwell, how to protect communal areas in blocks around Finsbury Park, and how to handle awkward access in period properties by Islington Green.

Our crews are respectful, punctual and uniformed. They are used to working in busy neighbourhoods across the borough, from quiet streets off Tufnell Park Road to lively areas around Kings Cross and Clerkenwell. We treat each property with care, keeping noise, disruption and clutter to a minimum.

Our Mission

The mission of Man with Van Islington is simple: to provide an honest, affordable and eco-conscious man with van service that makes moving in and around Islington genuinely easier for local people and businesses.

We aim to deliver a removal company experience that combines the flexibility of a small, local operator with the standards of a professional service. This means clear communication, fair pricing, careful handling and a real focus on environmental responsibility throughout every move.

Eco-Responsibility at the Heart of Our Service

Living and working in Islington, we see every day how important green spaces like Highbury Fields, Clissold Park and Gillespie Park are to residents. Protecting the local environment is a core part of how we operate as a man with van company.

We plan our routes to minimise unnecessary mileage, particularly when travelling between jobs around Angel, Holloway and Archway. Wherever possible, we group area removal service bookings to reduce duplicate trips. Our drivers are trained in fuel-efficient driving, and we regularly maintain our vehicles to minimise emissions.

Recycling Partnerships and Responsible Disposal

Man with Van Islington works closely with authorised recycling centres and waste partners serving the borough. When a move includes unwanted furniture, appliances, or large volumes of packaging, we prioritise reuse and recycling before disposal.

We regularly take suitable items to local recycling facilities used by Islington residents, such as centres associated with the Hornsey Street and Holloway Road area, and work with reuse schemes where furniture and household goods can be passed on for a second life. Items that cannot be reused are carefully separated so that wood, metal, cardboard and electrical goods can be processed responsibly instead of going straight to landfill.

By combining our Environment Agency licensing with clear recycling partnerships, we offer an area removal service that aligns with the environmental values of the Islington community.

Community Ties and Local Involvement

Man with Van Islington is more than just a removal company working in the area; we are part of the community. Many of our team members live locally around areas such as Highbury, Holloway, Archway and Barnsbury, and know the neighbourhoods, estates and main roads on a personal level.

Over the years, we have supported local events and small charities by offering discounted man with van services for community clear-outs, school collections and donations. We have helped community groups transport equipment to events near Islington Green, supported moves for local independent shops around Camden Passage, and assisted with collections for reuse projects across the borough.

Because we are a long-established local removal company, many of our customers come back to us whenever they move home within Islington or nearby areas. We take pride in the fact that we have moved some residents multiple times, from their first rented flat near Caledonian Road to family homes closer to Highbury Fields.
