Covering: Sheffield, Rotherham, Barnsley, Chesterfield, Dronfield, Worksop and the rest of the S postcode area.
The local landmark: Chesterfield's crooked spire leans visibly for miles, and Sheffield's western edge runs straight into the Peak District.
Students: The University of Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam teach around 60,000 students between them, concentrated in Broomhill, Crookes and along Ecclesall Road.
On the ground: Sheffield's stone and brick terraces climb genuinely steep hills, Rotherham and Barnsley are red brick rows and estates, and student HMOs rarely have off-street parking. If carrying is the hard part, Assisted from £349 brings us inside, with a two-person crew when furniture or bikes are aboard (£15 per end for 2nd or 3rd floor with no lift, £30 for 4th and up).
Who makes this move: Huge student intakes arrive every autumn and many graduates later take the move down to London, keeping this run busy in both directions.
While you wait for the van: Sheffield FC, founded in 1857, is recognised by FIFA as the world's oldest football club.
