What Makes Our House Clearance Different
The cost of house clearance in the UK covers labour, van hire, disposal fees, and travel.
A one-bedroom flat clearance in a major UK city typically costs £200-£350.
A three-bedroom house with garages and loft contents ranges from £400-£900 depending on access and volume.
These prices include the removal team, the van, and delivery to a local recycling centre or charity donation point.
Giant Van's clearance quotes are fixed before we start — no on-the-day additions for extra bags or awkward items.

How We Handle House Clearance Challenges
A house clearance auction is an option when a property contains saleable antiques, furniture, or collectables.
Rather than disposing of everything, a specialist auction house assesses items and includes them in a sale, with proceeds going to the estate or homeowner.
Giant Van is not an auction house — we handle the physical clearance and removal.
However, we can work alongside an auction house assessor who visits first, removes items for sale, and then Giant Van clears the remainder.
This combined approach often reduces the net cost of clearance because auction proceeds offset the Giant Van fee.
Removal Prices

All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.

How Removals Work
- 01
Tell us about your move
Enter your collection and delivery addresses, select your property size, and list any large items. See a fixed price in under 60 seconds.
- 02
Choose your moving day
Pick a date and time slot that works for you. Add packing materials or extra helpers if you need them.
- 03
Relax while we move you in
A fully insured crew arrives on time, wraps and loads your belongings, and delivers everything to your new home.

Our House Clearance All-Inclusive Approach
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.

Popular UK Removal Routes
Broad House Clearance Coverage
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.

When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
House clearance and auction is a practical combination for estate and probate situations where saleable items deserve a proper market, and clearance waste needs responsible disposal.
Giant Van works alongside local auction houses and charitable furniture reuse schemes — items that can be donated go to charity; items that cannot are disposed of responsibly at licensed waste facilities.
