1-bedroom home Moving Size — Typical furnished Contents

Worked moving-volume estimate for a 1-bedroom home with typical furnished contents: 9.0 m³ midpoint, van, storage and box planning.

Quick planning midpoint9.0 m³
Planning range7.9–10.3 m³
Midpoint9.0 m³
Van planningLarge panel van
Storage start~75 sq ft

How the quick model works

The current MoveSize quick-removals model starts with a 9.0 m³ baseline for a 1-bedroom home. The typical furnished contents level applies a 1.00 multiplier, giving a midpoint of 9.0 m³. The planning range is 88%–114% of the midpoint.

Van and storage planning

MoveSize keeps a 10% van loading margin rather than assuming every published cubic metre is usable. The storage starting point assumes roughly 75% practical use of an 8 ft-high unit before rounding to a common unit size.

What can move the result

Lofts, garages, home offices, collections, garden equipment, dismantling, dense books and unusually bulky furniture can all change the result. Use the full inventory before booking.

Property size is only a shortcut. MoveSize does not guarantee that a named van or storage unit will fit the actual load; payload, access, item geometry and supplier dimensions must be checked.
