Removal Service

The cost of a removal company can be quoted hourly or as a fixed price.

Hourly rates look cheaper upfront — typically £40-£60 per hour for a man-and-van — but they mount up quickly on longer moves or when traffic causes delays.

A fixed-price quote protects you from those surprises.

Giant Van uses fixed pricing for all moves: you know the total before a single box is lifted.

Our quotes include driving time, loading and unloading, and any waiting time built in for key handovers.

For long distance moves, fixed pricing also covers overnight driver costs where needed.

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.
