How Desk Delivery Works With Us
Looking for Desk Delivery to Reading? Delivering a desk is not the same as delivering a parcel. Most desks weigh between 30 kg and 80 kg. Corner units and standing desks often exceed that. Standard couriers will leave the item at the kerb or refuse the job outright. Giant Van does not work that way.
Our team collects from the collection point, loads the desk safely into a padded van, and delivers it to the room of your choice. We work in homes, offices, co-working spaces, and commercial premises. If you are moving a single home office desk or clearing and restocking an entire office floor, we handle the full job.
We also disassemble flat-pack desks before transit where needed and reassemble them at the destination. Many desks crack or warp when moved fully assembled over long distances. We carry blankets, straps, and corner guards in every van. Your desk arrives in the condition it left in.
Same-day desk delivery is available when you book before midday in most UK cities. Next-day slots are available nationwide. Our app lets you track the van in real time, so you are never waiting around with no information.
We handle standing desks, L-shaped desks, executive desks, sit-stand converter units, and standard flat-pack office furniture. If it has a surface and legs, we can move it.
Desk Delivery Pricing
All prices are fixed and confirmed before you book. No hourly overruns, no fuel surcharges, no surprises.
Man and Van (single desk delivery): from £54 per hour. Most local desk jobs complete in one to two hours.
Small home or office (one-bedroom equivalent): £250 to £400.
Medium home or office (two-bedroom equivalent): £400 to £650.
Large home or full office relocation (three-bedroom equivalent): £650 to £900.
Standing desk delivery may carry a small premium due to weight and specialist handling. Assembly and disassembly is available as an add-on. Get your exact price using the instant quote tool on the Giant Van website or message us in the live chat.
All prices include a fully insured driver, van, and basic protection. Packing materials available.
Work Out Your Moving CostDesk Delivery: Access Challenges Solved
Need Desk Delivery Bury?
Desk delivery pricing depends on distance, desk size, and whether assembly is included. Giant Van keeps its pricing transparent. You get a fixed quote before we collect. No surprises on arrival.
For single-item desk delivery within a city or town, Man and Van rates start from £54 per hour.
Most single desk jobs take one to two hours including loading and unloading. A local desk delivery for a standard home office desk typically costs between £55 and £90 depending on the number of floors and access.
For larger jobs involving multiple desks, here is a general guide:
A small office or one-bedroom home clearance and rearrangement runs from £250 to £400.
A two-bedroom property or mid-size office move involving desks and other furniture runs from £400 to £650. Larger moves covering three bedrooms or full office relocations run from £650 to £900.
Standing desk delivery often costs slightly more.
The weight and awkward dimensions require a two-person crew and extra care on stairs. Always mention if you have a motorised sit-stand desk when booking. These models have electric components that need specific handling.

Before Desk Delivery Begins: Key Advice
Standing desks have become standard in UK home offices and workplaces. They are also among the most difficult furniture items to move safely. A motorised sit-stand desk can weigh up to 120 kg fully assembled. The frame, legs, and control box are all vulnerable to damage if handled incorrectly.
We know what goes wrong and how to prevent it.
Most electric standing desks should be transported with the legs removed and the frame flat. We carry the appropriate tools and know how to reconnect the wiring and motor correctly at the other end.
Cable snapping when the desk is moved without disconnecting the control harness first. Frame warping when a heavy top is carried by two people at the ends without central support. Scratching to the desktop surface when the item is loaded without proper padding.
If your desk is arriving flat-packed from a supplier, we collect it and build it on-site at your address. This service is available across London and most UK cities with next-day booking.

Looking for Standing Desk Delivery Service? London is our busiest location for desk delivery.
We run vans across all 32 boroughs, from Barnet to Bromley, Hackney to Hounslow.
Desk delivery in London comes with specific challenges that our drivers understand well.
Parking is the first issue.

Our drivers know where to park legally, how long they have, and when to use short-stop arrangements on residential streets.
We do not get clamped.
We do not hold up your delivery for an hour sorting out a parking fine.
Access is the second issue.
Many London properties have narrow stairs, tight hallways, and no lift.
We carry desks up to five floors on a regular basis.
Our crew assess the route before lifting and use stair-climbing techniques that protect both the furniture and the walls.
Traffic is the third issue.
We use live routing to avoid holdups.
Our GPS tracking means you know where the van is at all times.
Arrival windows are tight and we stick to them.
Same-day desk delivery in London is available for bookings made before midday.

Where We Offer Desk Delivery
Most damage happens in transit, not during loading or unloading. The way a desk is secured in the van determines whether it arrives intact.
Corner guards protect the edges and legs, which are the most vulnerable points. Ratchet straps hold the desk in place without pressing against finished surfaces. Load bars prevent items from shifting during braking or cornering.
Glass should never travel resting on its largest face in a moving vehicle without full support along its length.
Standard webbing can leave pressure marks on lacquered surfaces even when the strap is not tight.
In the unlikely event of damage, our claims process is straightforward and resolved quickly. You will not spend weeks chasing a courier call centre.
Any existing marks are noted on the job sheet before we touch the item. This protects both you and us.
A Note From Our Drivers
Every job gets the same standard of care: punctual arrival, proper equipment, and goods-in-transit insurance on every item. Our drivers are reviewed after each booking to maintain consistently high standards across every move.

Off-Peak Desk Delivery Savings
Desk Delivery vs Standard Courier: What Is the Difference?
Most will refuse to carry a desk over a certain weight or size, and those that do will leave the item at the front door. There is no upstairs carry, no assembly, and no tracking beyond a basic scan update.
We carry desks to the room of your choice, handle disassembly and reassembly, protect items properly during transit, and provide real-time GPS tracking throughout. Our drivers are trained for heavy awkward items, not just boxes.
A desk that arrives scratched or at the wrong floor costs more to fix than the saving on the courier fee.

Desk Delivery Made Simple Across the UK — FAQs
How much does desk delivery cost in the UK?

The final cost depends on distance, desk size, floor access, and whether assembly is included. Get a fixed instant quote on the Giant Van website before you commit to anything.
Can you deliver a desk the same day?
Yes. Giant Van offers same-day desk delivery in London and most major UK cities when you book before midday. Slots are confirmed instantly through our website or app. If you need delivery today, check availability online or start a live chat to confirm your area is covered.
Do you deliver standing desks?
Yes. We deliver standing desks and motorised sit-stand desks across the UK. Electric standing desks require careful disassembly before transit to protect the motor and control unit. We handle this as part of the service. Please mention when booking that your desk has electric components so we assign the right crew.
Will you carry the desk upstairs?
Yes. We carry desks to any floor in your property as standard. Most desk deliveries include room-of-choice placement. Our crew is trained in stair carries for large, heavy items. Let us know at booking if there are narrow stairs, no lift, or awkward turns so we can plan the right approach before arriving.
Do you assemble desks after delivery?
Yes. We offer flat-pack assembly and reassembly as an add-on. This covers standard desks, modular office desks, and most standing desk systems. Add assembly when you book online or mention it when you call. Assembly is priced separately and confirmed in your quote before you pay.
Is my desk insured during delivery?
Yes. All Giant Van deliveries include goods-in-transit insurance. Your desk is covered from collection to delivery. We inspect the item with you before loading and note any pre-existing marks on the job sheet. If damage occurs in transit, our claims process is quick and straightforward with no long hold times.
Can you collect a desk from a retailer or warehouse?
Yes. We collect from furniture retailers, warehouses, and storage facilities on your behalf. Provide the collection address when booking and we handle the rest. This is useful if you have bought a desk online for collection or are sourcing from a trade supplier who does not offer home delivery.
Do you offer desk delivery for businesses and offices?
Yes. We deliver desks to offices, co-working spaces, schools, and commercial premises across the UK. We handle bulk orders, work to your site access rules, and can deliver outside business hours on request. Business accounts with monthly invoicing are available. Message our commercial team in live chat.
