Wakefield: Same-Day & Fast-Response Service to London removals. Fully insured, fixed price.
From £299

When you need removals Wakefield families and businesses rely on, speed matters. If you're leaving a flat on Westgate, clearing a house in Sandal, or responding to an unexpected eviction notice in Horbury, Giant Van is ready to move. We cover every WF postcode, carry full goods-in-transit insurance, and answer the phone every day. Call 020 3129 6180 and we'll give you a time slot within the hour.

Same-day emergency removals across all Wakefield WF postcodes, with man and van from £45 and house moves from £250. Call 020 3129 6180.
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Giant Van runs a full removal service in Wakefield, handling everything from single-item urgent lifts to complete three-bedroom house moves. Our fleet ranges from transit-size vans for studio flats to Luton box vans for larger family homes on streets like Denby Dale Road, Barnsley Road, or Doncaster Road.
Emergency removals mean we prioritise your booking above standard lead-time slots. If your landlord has issued a same-day notice, your completion date has moved forward unexpectedly, or you simply can't stay another night, we will find a crew and a van.
Standard planned moves are equally covered. We offer fixed-price quotes so there are no surprises on moving day. Man and van jobs in Wakefield start from £45 for short local runs. Full house removals start from £250 for a one-bedroom property, rising to around £850 for a five-bedroom detached home. Office clearances and business relocations start from £300.
Piano and heavy item removals are quoted separately from £150, and we use specialist equipment including stair walkers, furniture skates, and piano boards to protect both the instrument and your staircase.
All our drivers know the Wakefield road network. They know about the roadworks that regularly affect Kirkgate and the narrow approach roads around the Ridings Shopping Centre. That local knowledge saves time on every job.
Wakefield sits at the junction of the M1 and M62, which makes it accessible from all directions.
However, the city centre has genuine logistical challenges that trip up removal companies unfamiliar with the area.
The one-way system around Westgate and Kirkgate means approach routes for large Luton vans must be planned in advance.
Properties on Brook Street, Providence Street, and the streets feeding into the Bull Ring require early-morning loading to avoid peak pedestrian and delivery traffic. Our crews arrive knowing which entry to use.
Sandal, Crigglestone, and Durkar sit south of the city centre along the A636 and A61 corridors.
These are largely residential streets with off-road parking, which makes loading straightforward. Conversely, properties near Wakefield Kirkgate railway station and the waterfront development at Waterside can have restricted vehicle access during market days and events at the Hepworth Gallery.
East of the city, Agbrigg, Belle Vue, and Lupset have mix of terrace and semi-detached stock where parking is tight.
We carry extended loading ramps for situations where the van cannot pull directly to the kerb.
North of the city, Outwood and Stanley have wider roads but the A642 Aberford Road gets congested during school drop-off hours.
We factor this into our scheduling when you book.
The M1 junction 39 and junction 40 interchanges give us fast access to Leeds, Barnsley, Sheffield, and Pontefract for longer-distance moves originating in or ending at Wakefield.
All prices are fixed and confirmed before we start. Man and van in Wakefield starts from £45 for short local lifts. Full house removals are priced from £250 for a one-bedroom property and up to £850 for a larger family home. Office and business relocations start from £300. Piano removal starts from £150 and is quoted individually based on piano type, floor level, and access at both addresses. Call 020 3129 6180 for an exact quote based on your specific WF postcode, volume, and date.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.
Get your exact priceRing as soon as you know you need to move. We can confirm a crew while you start gathering essentials. Waiting until everything is boxed costs you hours you may not have.
This takes ten minutes and gives you a clear record of item condition. It also speeds up our pre-move assessment so we bring the right size van.
Place breakables in a distinct pile near the door. Our crew will wrap and load these separately using transit blankets, which reduces handling time overall.
Properties on Horbury Road and Northgate area terraces often have narrow stairwells. Moving furniture through clear corridors can cut loading time by 30 minutes on a standard two-bedroom flat.
WF1 and WF2 postcodes have controlled parking zones near the city centre. A Temporary Suspension of Parking (TSOP) application to Wakefield Council can reserve a bay. We can advise on this when you book.
Delays at new properties on Trinity Walk and the Waterfront apartments cost everyone time. Know your fob codes, gate codes, and meter access.
In a genuine emergency, identify your ten most critical items first. We load those first so you have what you need even if a second trip becomes necessary.
Enter your collection and delivery addresses, select your property size, and list any large items. See a fixed price in under 60 seconds.
Pick a date and time slot that works for you. Add packing materials or extra helpers if you need them.
A fully insured crew arrives on time, wraps and loads your belongings, and delivers everything to your new home.

Every Giant Van removal booking in Wakefield includes a clearly defined set of services.
There are no hidden fees added on the day.
- Two trained removal crew members (three on larger jobs) - Fully equipped Luton van or transit van depending on volume - Transit blankets and padding for furniture protection - Loading and unloading at both addresses - Basic furniture reassembly where items were disassembled for transport - Goods-in-transit insurance up to £10,000 (higher cover available on request) - Fuel costs within the Wakefield district and surrounding WF postcodes Packing materials are available as an optional add-on.
We carry double-walled boxes, tape, bubble wrap, and wardrobe boxes.
If you want a full packing service the day before your move, we offer that too at an additional hourly rate.
Storage solutions can be arranged for situations where your new Wakefield property is not ready on the same day as your move-out.
We work with secure storage facilities near Junction 40 of the M1 where your belongings can be held short-term.
Piano removal is quoted separately because it requires specialist equipment and an additional crew member.
Prices start from £150 for upright pianos on ground-floor properties and increase for grand pianos or multi-floor moves in properties near Pontefract Road and Barnsley Road where access can be restricted.
Office moves include IT equipment handling advice and can be scheduled outside standard business hours to minimise disruption to your Wakefield operation.

“Best removal service I've used”
Sarah, London
Tell us your current postcode, your destination postcode, the number of rooms or items, and your required date. For emergency removals, tell us your earliest available window. We respond to all enquiries within 15 minutes during operating hours.
We will confirm the van size, crew number, and total cost. For Wakefield city centre addresses we factor in parking logistics from the outset. For same-day emergency bookings, the quote is given verbally and confirmed by text or email within minutes.
You will receive a confirmation message with your crew's name and expected arrival window. We operate to a 30-minute arrival slot on standard bookings and a best-endeavours window for genuine emergency calls. Our crew contacts you 20 minutes before arrival. Payment is accepted by card, bank transfer, or cash. We do not require a deposit on most standard Wakefield removals, though emergency same-day bookings may require a small holding payment to secure the crew. After the move, we ask you to check all items are accounted for and undamaged before the crew leaves. Any concerns are handled directly with our operations team. We carry public liability insurance as well as goods-in-transit cover, so claims are handled professionally and promptly.
Giant Van provides removals across the full Wakefield district and the surrounding towns within the WF postcode area.
Within WF1 and WF2 we cover the city centre, Sandal, Agbrigg, Belle Vue, Lupset, Flanshaw, and Wrenthorpe.
These are our most frequent collection and delivery points and crews know the roads well.
WF4 covers Crigglestone, Durkar, Newmillerdam, and Walton.
Properties here are often larger family homes with detached garages and we bring extended-capacity vans for these jobs.
WF5 is Ossett, a market town three miles west of Wakefield city centre with good van access along the Wakefield Road and Church Street areas.
We handle a high volume of moves here for families relocating within Ossett or moving into the Wakefield urban area.
WF6 covers Normanton and the surrounding streets including Aberford Road and High Street.
This is an area with strong demand for man-and-van single-item collections.
Horbury falls within WF4 and Queen Street and Cluntergate are regular collection points for us.
Dewsbury and Batley in WF13 and WF17 are also covered for moves connecting to or from Wakefield.
Beyond the WF area, we carry out long-distance removals to Leeds, Sheffield, Huddersfield, York, and across the country.
Wakefield's position between the M1 and M62 makes it an efficient base for national moves. Call us to discuss any destination and we will price accordingly.
Booked online in under a minute and the crew turned up right on time. Everything was wrapped carefully and nothing was damaged. Genuinely the easiest move I've had.
The quote I got online was exactly what I paid. No hidden fees, no extra charges on the day. The two-man crew were professional, fast, and really friendly.

Giant Van has built its reputation on reliability and straight talking. We do not pad quotes with vague estimates or change prices at the kerb. When we give you a number over the phone, that is what you pay.
Our crew members are employed, not subcontracted. That means they are trained to our standard, carry our insurance, and are accountable directly to us. You will not find strangers arriving in unmarked vehicles when you book through Giant Van.
We respond to genuine emergencies. When a tenant in a WF1 flat needs to move the same afternoon because of a relationship breakdown, or a business on Calder Vale Road needs its office cleared before a lease ends at midnight, we treat that situation with urgency. We have assisted with hundreds of emergency moves across Wakefield and surrounding areas.
Our vans carry full equipment. Every vehicle is stocked with transit blankets, loading straps, trolleys, and ramps. We do not ask customers to provide materials or improvise on the day.
We are fully insured. Goods-in-transit cover up to £10,000 is included on every booking, with higher levels available for antiques, artwork, or high-value office equipment. Public liability insurance is also active on every job.
Our pricing is transparent. Man and van from £45. House removals from £250. Office moves from £300. Piano moves from £150. Call for an exact quote for your Wakefield removal.

UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Here is what our experience across hundreds of local moves tells us.
Friday is the most popular moving day in Wakefield because completion dates on property sales frequently fall on Fridays. If you are booking a planned move, avoid Friday where possible to get faster loading times in areas like Sandal, Horbury, and Wakefield city centre.
For properties near the city centre on Wood Street, Northgate, or Cross Street, a Tuesday or Wednesday booking avoids delivery vehicle conflicts.
The six-week summer holiday and Christmas break see high volumes of family moves across WF1 to WF6. Booking two to three weeks ahead during these periods ensures you get your preferred slot.
We maintain capacity across our fleet specifically to handle urgent requests. We have attended late-evening emergency calls in Ossett, early-morning same-day requests in Normanton, and Sunday morning lifts for tenants leaving Wakefield bedsits. No reasonable request is turned down without genuine reason.
We will always tell you honestly what we can offer and when.
Many are sole traders with no goods-in-transit insurance and no backup if their vehicle breaks down. Giant Van operates a fleet, carries full insurance on every job, and has a second crew available if something unexpected happens on the day.
We carry proper equipment including furniture trolleys, stair walkers, transit blankets, and ramps. Friends rarely have any of these.
With Giant Van, you know who is arriving because we send you the crew's name in advance.
We plan our diary to keep emergency slots available. That is a deliberate business choice, not an accident.
Giant Van handles removals Wakefield customers book when they need a crew that actually shows up.
We cover every WF postcode from Sandal and Crigglestone in the south to Outwood and Stanley in the north.
Our fixed prices mean you know the total before we load the first box.
If you are moving a single wardrobe across Agbrigg or relocating an office from the city centre to Normanton, our crew brings the right equipment and the local knowledge to do it without delays.
Wakefield removals companies vary widely on reliability.
Giant Van is different because we employ our crews directly, carry full goods-in-transit insurance on every job, and give you a fixed price upfront.
Call 020 3129 6180 and you will speak to someone who can book your move, not a call centre that takes a message.
We are ready for same-day emergencies and planned moves alike across all WF postcodes.
