Student Removals Bradford

Halls, houses and home again

The student year has two pinch points: the end of the summer term, when tenancies end, and the start of the autumn term, when new ones begin. Both land on the same few Bradford streets, around Laisteridge Lane, Great Horton Road, Longside Lane and the terraces out towards Girlington, where there is no off-street parking and the staircase can turn twice between the front door and the bedroom. Book early and start at 8am, when those roads are quieter.

We cover the University of Bradford and Bradford College accommodation, the big student areas of Leeds (Headingley, Hyde Park, Woodhouse and Burley), and the University of Huddersfield and its surrounding lets in Huddersfield. Moves between Bradford, Leeds and Huddersfield suit one van and a driver well.

Typical student jobs

Halls to a shared house at the end of first year
Moving between shared houses for a new tenancy
End-of-year move back home anywhere in the UK
Runs to and from your own self-storage unit over summer
Collecting a bed, desk or sofa bought second-hand for a new room

Loading and unloading are included, and so is taking apart and rebuilding a bed frame or existing flat-pack, so a room move is one fixed price agreed before we set off.

Long-distance student moves

Going home for the summer or graduating and moving away? We do long distance runs nationwide when booked in advance. For a bike, a desk chair and a guitar, one van can be simpler than a stack of parcel bookings, and none of it has to fit a parcel firm's size limits.

Simple to book, easy to pay

Send us a WhatsApp with what you've got (a quick photo of the room is perfect), plus the two postcodes and the date. We'll reply with a fixed price. No forms and no survey for standard local jobs. If a parent is arranging the move, that's fine; just tell us who will be at each end.

Student Removals across West Yorkshire and beyond

From Bradford the van runs to 81 towns, nearest first in West Yorkshire, then the longer runs north, south and over the Pennines. Each one has its own page covering the streets, access and parking there.

Frequently asked questions: Student Removals

How much does a student move cost?

It depends on distance and how much you have. A local student room move is a small job, so it's priced as one. Send a photo of your things and both postcodes on WhatsApp for a quick, fixed price.

Can I ride in the van?

Yes, there's one passenger seat. If you ride along, you can let us into the new place when we arrive.

Do you do moves at the end of term when everyone's leaving at once?

Yes. The end of the summer term and the start of the autumn term are when student tenancies change over, so get in touch as soon as you know your dates.

I've got a bike and a mattress, is that a problem?

Not at all. Bikes, mattresses, desk chairs and mini fridges all go in. Mattresses up to king size travel flat or on their side without folding. A super king is wider than the 1.3m between the wheel arches, so give its size when you book and it will be checked before the day.

How far ahead should I book a student move in Bradford?

Two or three weeks ahead if your date is at the end of the summer term or the start of the autumn term, because that is when most student tenancies change over and those days are asked for first. Outside those weeks a room move is a small job, and a date a few days away can be fitted in when the diary allows.
