Student Moves Brighton — two universities, one honest van.
Sussex up at Falmer, Brighton across Moulsecoomb, City and Falmer — and tens of thousands of student rooms between them, most of them up a hill. Room-sized moves at room-sized prices, September or June, halls or house share.

Built for the one-room move.
Student moves are small, frequent and budget-shaped — the service matches:
- Single rooms out of halls or house shares — a normal booking, not a favour
- Multi-stop runs: your room, a housemate's, the storage unit
- Both universities and every campus — Falmer, Moulsecoomb, City
- The Lewes Road corridor's hills climbed daily
- End-of-term runs home — London and the South East included
- Evening slots around timetables, up to 10pm
No invented student discount — just rates that already start at £22 an hour, which for one room's worth of life is usually the minimum booking.
The Brighton student year, mapped.
Where the moves happen and when they stack up:
September, inbound
Sussex's welcome week and Brighton's autumn term land within days of each other in late September — the fortnight the city's vans book out first. Halls at Falmer and Moulsecoomb, and every landing in between.
The share-house belt
Moulsecoomb, Bevendean, Elm Grove and Hanover carry the city's densest student housing — the council's own HMO mapping says so — which means terraced hills, permit streets and rooms at the top of them.
June, outbound
Tenancies close, storage units open, and half the loads point at parents' houses an hour up the A23. Multi-stop runs split one van between housemates and one bill between everyone.

Student-move FAQ
Asked from halls kitchens and top-floor share houses alike.
Do you cover both Sussex and Brighton universities?
Every campus of both — the University of Sussex at Falmer, and the University of Brighton across Moulsecoomb, City and its Falmer site. Halls, private blocks and share houses all count; name the building and we'll plan the pickup point.
What does a student move cost?
From £22 an hour for the medium van with a working driver — one room across town is usually the minimum booking. Bigger group move-outs step up the table, and the written quote fixes it before you book.
Can several housemates share one van?
That's the smart play: one multi-stop booking, several rooms, one bill split however you like. Give us the addresses and we'll order the stops sensibly.
When should I book for September or June?
Early. Sussex's welcome week and Brighton's term start stack the same fortnight of September, and June's move-out wave is nearly as tight — those weeks go first, midweek slots last longest.
Can you run my things home to London at the end of term?
Routinely — the A23 run is our second home, both directions, with any London zone charges itemised in the quote. Smaller loads often share sensible timing with our regular London runs; ask when booking.
