Local Property Guide
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
When You Need Courier Services, We Deliver
Finding the cheapest courier for heavy items means looking beyond standard parcel services.
DPD, Hermes, and Parcelforce have weight and size limits — anything above 30 kg or longer than 120 cm gets rejected or charged at prohibitive rates.
Giant Van fills this gap.
We collect and deliver items up to 500 kg on a van-with-driver basis.
Engine blocks, industrial machinery parts, large stone worktops, gym equipment, and oversized artwork all fall into this category.
Prices start from £49 for a local same-day heavy item delivery.
Long-distance heavy courier services are quoted by distance and weight.
Message us in the live chat for a price within two minutes.
How We Handle Courier Services Challenges
Pallet courier services in the UK from Giant Van cover standard pallet sizes (100x120 cm) and oversized pallets up to a full van floor.
We operate as a direct courier rather than through a pallet network, which means your pallet is loaded at collection and does not change hands at a depot.
This matters for fragile goods, glass, ceramics, and precision equipment.
Same-day pallet collection is available across our network for calls received before 10 am.
Next-day pallet delivery is available UK-wide.
Prices depend on pallet dimensions, weight, and collection-to-delivery distance.
A standard pallet delivered within 50 miles costs from £89.
Removal Prices
Indicative removal prices. Your final quote is fixed and shown before you book.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.

Standard Inclusions for Courier Services
On the day of your move, the Giant Van crew arrives within the agreed time window — typically a 30-minute slot.
The lead mover walks your property first, assessing large items, tight corners, and any flight of stairs.
Furniture wrapping starts in the rooms furthest from the exit.
Beds and wardrobes are dismantled before loading.
The van is packed from back to front, with heavy items on the floor and fragile boxes on top.
At the destination, the crew unloads to the rooms you specify and rebuilds any furniture that was taken apart.
You sign off on completion.
Payment is taken at the end of the job for full removals, or upfront online for man-and-van bookings.
Expect two to six hours depending on property size.

Courier Services Coverage: Cities and Towns
National firms often send crews who have never worked a particular street before.
Giant Van drivers are allocated to regions they know.
That means parking strategy on restricted roads, awareness of time-controlled loading bays, knowledge of estate layouts, and understanding of access routes for large vans in older town centres.
Local knowledge reduces delays and prevents the situations where a crew cannot park and the customer loses hours waiting.
Giant Van's driver allocation is region-first, meaning you get someone familiar with the area, not the nearest available driver regardless of location.
A Note From Our Drivers
Our drivers navigate local streets daily, handling everything from narrow terraced house access to large detached properties. Every move is treated with care because our reputation depends on it.
Giant Van operations
When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Car parts courier services are one of Giant Van's growing specialisms.
Classic car restorers, motor trade businesses, and private sellers sourcing parts from breakers yards across the UK need fast, careful transport for engines, gearboxes, body panels, and axles.
These items are too heavy for standard parcel couriers and too irregular in shape for pallet networks.
Our van-based courier service picks up from the seller, loads with straps and blankets, and delivers to the garage or home address.
We serve the UK motor trade from auction houses like BCA Blackbushe and Manheim Colchester to private garages across the country.
