Fore Street, the Narrows and the old town
No loading bays, plenty of gradient. The winning move here is a smaller van, an early slot and rear-lane access where it exists - describe all three in your request.

Moving in Totnes
Totnes is one of England's oldest boroughs and one of its steepest market towns - Fore Street climbs from the Plains to the Eastgate arch, and the surrounding lanes are no flatter. The moving market is famously eclectic: Elizabethan townhouses, cottages across the river at Bridgetown, estate homes at Follaton and Highfields, and rural properties threaded through the Dart valley lanes.
The A385 runs down the valley to Paignton and Torquay and north-west towards Newton Abbot and the A38; the A381 heads through the South Hams towards Kingsbridge. In summer, visitor traffic slows the whole valley approach, and the one-way system through the Narrows is a genuine constraint for larger vans - many central jobs use a Luton or smaller.
Stairs and carries define pricing here. Tall houses on Fore Street have entries straight off the pavement with no loading bay, so a quick double-park with good crew timing is the norm for the Narrows; Bridgetown addresses mean crossing the river, which bottlenecks at peaks. Tell the mover the gradient, door position and nearest realistic stop. Your contact details stay protected until you accept a quote and book.

These local notes help customers describe the move accurately and help movers account for access, timing and route details before quoting.
Bridgetown and the river crossing
Bridgetown addresses sit across the Dart, so the town bridge timing matters. Crossing before 9am or after 4.30pm dodge the queue and often shave thirty minutes off the job.
Torbay and the South Hams runs
Paignton is five miles and Torquay eight down the A385, with Brixham just beyond. Most Totnes moves stay within Torbay, and summer timing is the only real variable.

How much does a man and van cost in Totnes?
Totnes man and van rates start from £19 per hour for self-loading, or from £34 per hour with a driver who helps carry. A local move typically costs £55-£130. A full 2-3 bed house move usually ranges from £240-£470. Submit your details for a guide price first.
How much is a man and van from Totnes to Torquay?
Totnes to Torquay is about eight miles down the A385. A typical small move costs £55-£100, with single items often from £35-£60. Summer bank-holiday traffic can stretch this - midweek is smoother.
Can you manage Fore Street and very steep properties?
Yes. The Narrows and Fore Street are done with a smaller van, a timed stop and clear access notes. Tell the mover if there is rear access - several streets have back lanes that transform the job.
Do you cover the Town Centre, Bridgetown, Dartington, Follaton and Highfields?
Yes. Move requests can be submitted for the Town Centre, Bridgetown, Dartington, Follaton and Highfields and the surrounding areas. A verified mover checks whether they cover your exact addresses before quoting, and you see the details before deciding whether to book.
Will multiple movers contact me?
No. your enquiry is offered to one mover at a time. You will not receive a flood of calls or emails from competing companies.
Is it free to submit a move request?
Yes. Submitting your move request is free. You only pay a booking deposit if you accept a mover quote, and that deposit comes off the mover price. The remaining balance is paid directly to the mover on moving day.
