Planning Your House Move Timeline
Most house moves in England and Wales complete on a Friday, creating a bottleneck where every removal firm is booked solid.
Giant Van recommends midweek moves for better availability and occasionally lower rates.
Start planning four weeks before completion.
Book the move two weeks ahead.
Begin packing non-essential rooms a week before.
The morning of the move, strip beds, empty the fridge, and disconnect the washing machine.
The crew handles everything else.
A typical three-bed house move takes four to six hours from first box to last lamp.

How Much a UK House Move Costs
House move costs depend on three factors: the number of bedrooms, the distance, and the access at both ends.
A one-bed flat moving locally (under 10 miles) costs £149 to £250.
A two-bed house within the same city averages £250 to £400.
Three-bed homes moving cross-city run £400 to £600.
Long-distance moves between cities add mileage costs, but Giant Van quotes these as fixed prices so there are no surprises.
Properties with difficult access (no lift in a fourth-floor flat, or a narrow country lane) may carry a small supplement, disclosed at the quoting stage.

Nationwide Coverage for House Moves
Giant Van provides house moves across the UK, operating from 50 cities and their surrounding postcodes.
Whether the job starts in central London or a rural market town in the North, the same standard applies: a fully insured crew, a correctly sized vehicle, and a fixed quote confirmed before the booking is taken.
For long-distance house moving jobs, the team allocates a driver experienced on that corridor.
Multi-collection routes — picking up from two addresses and delivering to one — are available on request and priced accordingly.
Coverage extends to ferry port moves for Isle of Wight, Channel Islands, and Northern Ireland.
Scotland, Wales, and the Highlands are covered with appropriate lead times.

Our House Moves Process
01
Every house moving job follows a consistent process.
02
You submit a quote with property details, access notes, and date.
03
The team reviews the job and issues a fixed price.
04
On the day, the crew arrives within the agreed window, assesses the property, and begins work.
05
For house moving jobs, any specialist equipment required — transit blankets, straps, ramps, or dollies — is brought as standard.
Pricing Guide for House Moves
Pricing for house moving at Giant Van is set by three variables: distance, load volume, and crew size.
A single-item house moving job in the same city starts from £49.
A full-property house moving job with two movers and a Luton van starts from £149 regionally and £199 in London.
Long-distance house moving moves over 100 miles start from £220.
Pricing is fixed once the quote is confirmed — no extras are added on the day.
If access conditions at either address cause unexpected difficulty, the team notes this and may issue a revised quote for approval before proceeding, but only with your agreement.
Half-day and full-day rates are available for complex jobs.

Complete House Move Guide — FAQs
How far in advance should I book a house move?
Book at least two weeks ahead for weekday moves and three weeks for Friday or weekend slots. Same-week bookings are sometimes available depending on your area. Peak months are June through September, when university terms end and families move before the new school year. January and February are quietest, with the widest availability.
Does Giant Van handle the whole house move process?
Giant Van handles packing, wrapping, loading, transport, unloading, furniture reassembly, and box placement at your new address. Add-ons include disconnecting and reconnecting appliances, disposing of unwanted items, and short-term storage. The crew brings all materials: boxes, bubble wrap, blankets, straps, and mattress covers.
