Same-Day Removals When You Need Them Fast

Giant Van covers the full Truro area for emergency and same-day house removals.

If you are in a townhouse near Truro Cathedral in TR1, a semi-detached in Treliske by the Royal Cornwall Hospital, or a rural property on the outskirts in TR2 or TR4, we can reach you the same day.

Here is how our coverage breaks down across Truro's key residential areas:

Kenwyn (TR1): One of Truro's most densely populated residential neighbourhoods.

Streets like Kenwyn Road and St Clement's Hill have tight turns and parked cars on both sides. We use compact transit vans for tight runs and larger Luton vans when volume demands it.

Threemilestone (TR3): A primarily residential area west of the city with good road access via the A390.

Emergency jobs here tend to be faster to load and easier to park, which keeps costs down.

Treliske (TR1): Close to the Royal Cornwall Hospital.

Properties here are often modern and well-accessed, but the hospital traffic makes timing critical. We time arrivals to avoid peak traffic on Treliske Lane.

Malpas (TR1): A quieter waterside area south of the city centre, close to the River Fal.

Access via Malpas Road can be restricted during tidal flooding periods. Our teams check access conditions before dispatch.

Truro City Centre (TR1): Boscawen Street, Lemon Street, and the streets behind Lemon Quay all have limited stopping options.

We hold relevant permits and know which council-approved loading zones are available on short notice.

If you are outside these areas but still in the greater Truro catchment, call us on .

We will confirm availability in under five minutes.

Truro is not a straightforward city to operate in at speed.

The historic street layout in the TR1 postcode was not designed for modern removal vehicles. Understanding access before arrival is the difference between a job that runs smoothly and one that costs you an extra hour and an unnecessary parking fine.

Boscawen Street and the immediate city centre: The council operates strict loading zone controls.

Short-stay loading is permitted on Boscawen Street for commercial vehicles but is time-limited. Our teams know the exact windows and will not overstay, which protects you from fines that fall on the vehicle operator.

Lemon Quay and River Street: Drop-off and collection from the Lemon Quay area requires careful timing.

Heavy goods vehicles are not permitted through sections of the pedestrianised zone at certain hours. We route around this by default.

Victoria Place and St Clement Street: Older terraced properties here have minimal street width.

Parked cars often reduce passable width to a single vehicle lane. We send the appropriate vehicle size for these streets and, where required, apply for temporary no-parking cones with Cornwall Council in advance when booking gives us enough notice.

Malpas Road and the riverbank properties: Flood risk is real in this part of Truro.

During tidal periods or after heavy rain, Malpas Road can be partially impassable for larger vehicles. We check conditions the morning of the job.

Treliske and the hospital zone: Hospital approach roads on Treliske Lane and Pendennis Road carry heavy traffic during shift changes.

We schedule arrivals to avoid 7-9am and 3-5pm where possible.

This local knowledge is built in.

You do not pay extra for it.
