The Story Behind Van and a Man

Van and a Man began with a simple idea: offer honest, reliable, good old-fashioned service to people who need a hand moving. What started with just one van and a determination to help local families has grown into a trusted moving and storage business with depots in both Nelson and Marlborough servicing NZ-Wide!

Over the years, we’ve built a strong reputation based on word of mouth, hard work, and going the extra mile. Today, we’re proud to have a dedicated team of professional movers, drivers, and support staff who genuinely care about doing the job right – whether it’s a full house move, a local delivery, or helping a business get its goods where they need to go.

We work with everyday people, families, retirees, and local businesses across the Top of the South – and beyond. From household moves and nationwide relocations to commercial deliveries, storage solutions, and on-site labour, we do it all with a personal touch and a focus on quality.

At our core, we believe moving doesn’t have to be stressful – not when you’ve got the right people on your team. That’s what we aim to be for every customer: the right people, with the right gear, and the right attitude.

Thank you for supporting a locally owned and operated business. We’re proud to be part of this region – and proud to help move it, one job at a time.
