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.
Targeting the under-served niche between low cost, unlicensed (cowboy!) operators and bigger moving companies with high rates and minimums, Man With A Van® built its business performing small, local moves with Sprinter Vans – and later expanding to larger box trucks.
Man With A Van® operates all marketing, sales, and customer service from its office in Philadelphia.
We are actively looking at new locations in which to open moving and delivery operations.

My second time using this service, even in pandemic and a heat wave they were totally Professional, flexible and helpfu. I will use Man With a Van again!M Van Vliet
Recently moved from Brooklyn to Philly and had very high stress levels on a narrow street. Anthony, Terrence and Kwan fro Man With a Van were patient with both myself and the situation we found ourselves on a busy bus route during pickup.When asked "where I should be" as they were working they told me not to worry about it and I stayed out of their hair. My 1br in Brooklyn was packed in about an hour.I couldn't be more thankful for this team as their help made a very stressful move at least a little less stressful by managing both my expectations and handling all of my belongings with care. The team was also able to complete my move faster than expected, and below estimated total cost.Thanks again, Man with a Van Team!
I can't say enough great things about my experience with Man with a Van. They followed instructions perfectly and arrived on time. One of the pieces of furniture they had to move was a gigantic hutch that was extremely heavy. They managed to carefully maneuver it around tight spaces without damaging anything. The two men who did the job were friendly and efficient.
Worked with Terrence John and Anthony today and they were great. Exactly on time, efficient, careful and friendly movers. Highly recommend them!
I was able to book Man with a Van with two days notice without a problem.
I had a last minute job and called Saturday morning, and within a few minutes Paul was able to book my move in minutes for the next day. Joey and Jason were super helpful moving very heavy old couches to the street for bulk pick up and also getting furniture to a new apartment swiftly. They problem solved every snag efficiently (doors needing to be removed and replaced, armoire legs needing to be screwed in tighter) and were able to complete the job quicker than expected. It helped they were friendly and COVID-appropriate as well. I will definitely use them if I need moving help in the future.
You know all those horror stories about movers? Well they've been part of my experience in every move, big or small, that I've ever had. That is, until today. I needed to empty out a storage unit with a van load of stuff. We called, Paul gave us a rate, they came, they saw, they moved. They got it done and actually honored their rate. And to top it off, they sent three of the nicest, most efficient and personable young men you could imagine to do the job. A thousand stars.
As always, I had an amazing experience with Man with a Van. Tony and Josh arrived early, moved at lightning speed, and were professional the entire time. They clearly have done this quite a bit as they were not surprised or shaken by anything. So smooth - everything a move should be. Thank you so much Tony and Josh!
(Moved in May 2020) Very pleased with the prices and quality! Was cheaper than all other moving companies I got quotes from, and they did an amazing job without a hitch. Charged me an honest hourly rate and did a fast and efficient job. I had a fairly small move (less than a studios worth of stuff) so I appreciated their flexibility and ability for small moves. That said, the sprinter van has way more space than you'd think! Big thanks to Mike & his guys.
I just needed a mattress and two other SMALL items moved from one part of Manhattan to another. They were the only people I called that offered a reasonable price for moving this amount of stuff (most places I called could not be bothered unless you were moving at least a full room worth of stuff), and they completed the move within a fast timeframe. Everyone I interacted with was nice. I would definitely use them again! Thank you :)
Hello, I recently used Man with a Van. Leonel's crew was courteous and made the move timely and painless! Thank you.
Excellent overall - professional and efficient movers.
