How much does man and van cost in Bedford?

- Distance between the two addresses
- Volume and weight of what you are moving
- One or two people, and any packing
- Stairs, lifts and where the van can park
- Day and time of the move
Moving around Bedford: the homes
In the 2021 Census the most common home type in the Bedford council area was semi-detached houses (33.0% of households), so drivers there are used to that kind of access. Tell them about stairs, narrow hallways and parking so they can plan the job.

Who moves in Bedford
Across the Bedford council area, 62.7% of households are owner-occupied, 19.1% are privately rented and 16.3% are socially rented (Census 2021). 18.2% of households have no car or van, which is worth knowing when you plan where the van will stop.
