Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Exeter sits in the heart of Devon and draws people from all over the south-west for work, study, and family life. The city has a strong mix of Victorian terraces in St David's, modern new-builds around Newcourt, and tight student streets close to the EX4 postcode. That variety means every move here is different, and a one-size-fits-all van service rarely cuts it.
Giant Van specialises in express removals in Exeter. That means same-day or next-day availability in most cases, a crew that knows the city well, and pricing that is clear before we start. There are no hidden charges for stairs, no surprise fuel levies, and no last-minute rate hikes.
We handle a single man and van for a studio flat near the High Street, a full house removal from a four-bedroom property in Heavitree, or an office clearance near Sowton Industrial Estate, we size the job correctly. Man and van starts from £45, full house moves from £250, and office removals from £300. We bring trolleys, blankets, and straps as standard. If you need packing boxes or dismantling help, we can arrange that too. Exeter removals do not need to be stressful. With the right team and a realistic plan, most jobs are done and dusted in a single day.
Exeter's road layout rewards those who plan ahead.
The M5 junction at J29 (Honiton Road) and J30 (Middlemoor) gives good access to the east and north of the city, but the inner ring road along Western Way and Haven Road can back up between 7:30 am and 9:00 am on weekdays. We schedule loads accordingly and, where possible, aim to arrive before peak flow.
Parking is one of the trickiest parts of any Exeter removal.
The city centre, Cathedral Close, and the streets around Sidwell Street have resident-only bays and loading restrictions. St David's Hill near the railway station has narrow access, and Fore Street in the old town is pedestrianised for most of the day. Our drivers carry a permit application guide and we advise customers in EX1 and EX4 postcodes to request a temporary suspension from Exeter City Council at least 72 hours before the move date. Costs are typically £25 to £50 per bay, and council turnaround is usually fast.
Areas like Pennsylvania Road, Polsloe Road, and the streets near Exeter St James station involve 1960s terrace housing with limited kerb space.
We use medium-wheelbase vans where access is tight, rather than forcing a large vehicle that blocks the road. Countess Wear and Topsham to the south have narrow village lanes that also benefit from a smaller vehicle choice. We assess access when you book so there are no surprises on moving day.
All prices are fixed and include fuel, insurance, and equipment within the Exeter area. Man and Van: £45 to £300 depending on hours and load size, ideal for studio flats, single-room moves, and student clearances. House Removals: £250 to £850 for one to five-bedroom properties across Exeter and surrounding EX postcodes. Office Removals: £300 to £600 for small to medium business moves, including out-of-hours options. Piano Removals: upright from £150, grand from £300. Long-distance moves from Exeter to London, Bristol, or beyond are quoted individually. Call 020 3129 6180 for a fixed quote in minutes.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.
Get your exact priceExeter City Council requires at least 48 to 72 hours' notice to suspend bays. Streets around St David's, Heavitree Road, and the town centre fill quickly, so do not leave this to the day before.
Weekends and Mondays see the highest demand, particularly around the start and end of University of Exeter term dates in September and June. Mid-week slots are easier to book and often cheaper.
Include your kettle, phone charger, two mugs, a change of clothes, and any documents you will need at the new address. Keep it with you, not on the van.
Properties in the EX1 and EX2 postcodes often have narrower Victorian door frames than modern builds. Sofas and wardrobes cause the most delays when owners discover they will not fit through a doorway on the morning of the move.
If you live on Pinhoe Road, Wonford Road, or another busy arterial route, tell us when you book so we can plan a loading strategy rather than double-park.
This is particularly important for students clearing halls of residence near the university campus off New North Road.
Delays at solicitors on Southernhay East have held up more than one Exeter move. A quick phone call saves hours of waiting on the pavement.

“Best removal service I've used”
Sarah, London
Call or fill in the online form. Tell us your collection postcode, delivery postcode, approximate number of rooms or items, and your preferred date. We give you a fixed price in most cases, not an estimate that changes on the day.
Once you are happy with the price, you pay a small deposit to secure your slot. We send a confirmation by email with your crew details, arrival window, and a checklist to help you prepare.
We send a reminder 24 hours before with our estimated arrival time. For central Exeter addresses in EX1 and EX4, we advise having your parking suspension in place by this point.
Our crew does a quick walkthrough with you before loading starts. We wrap and protect all furniture and load the van in the order that makes unloading at the new address as efficient as possible.
We drive directly to your new address. For most moves within Exeter and the surrounding EX postcodes, transit time is under 30 minutes. For moves to Plymouth, Taunton, or further afield, we plan the route to avoid congestion on the A38 and A303.
Giant Van covers all Exeter postcodes as standard.
Our core EX coverage includes EX1 (city centre, Heavitree, Whipton), EX2 (St Thomas, Alphington, Countess Wear, Topsham), EX3 (Topsham, Woodbury, Exton), EX4 (St David's, Pennsylvania, Beacon Heath, Pinhoe), and EX5 (Broadclyst, Clyst St Mary, Cranbrook).
Beyond the city boundary, we regularly carry out removals exeter customers need when relocating to or from the following areas:
- Exmouth (EX8): 12 miles south-east, popular with retirees and young families moving from the city - Honiton (EX14): 17 miles east on the A30, growing commuter town - Crediton (EX17): 9 miles north-west, popular with families priced out of Exeter - Tiverton (EX16): 16 miles north, strong rental market - Sidmouth (EX10): 14 miles south-east, coastal moves from the city - Newton Abbot (TQ12): 14 miles south-west, via the A38 Expressway - Taunton (TA1): 34 miles north-east via the M5, included in our south-west coverage area - Plymouth (PL1 to PL9): 46 miles south-west, a common relocation corridor from Exeter
We also cover inter-city removals from Exeter to London, Bristol, Birmingham, and Manchester.
For long-distance moves, we use a large luton van with a full tail lift and plan an overnight stop where needed. Pricing for long-distance jobs is quoted individually. Call to discuss your specific route and we will give you a price within the hour.

The House That Moved Exeter: Express Removals From £45 Operations, Giant Van Driver
There are dozens of removal firms operating in and around Exeter, from sole-trader man-and-van operators to large national chains. Here is why customers in the city choose Giant Van time and again.
Fixed pricing means no surprises. We quote a price before the job starts. If we quote £350 for a two-bedroom house in St Thomas, that is what you pay. We do not add charges for a third floor, a difficult parking situation, or a longer-than-expected job unless the scope changes significantly and we discuss it with you first.
Local knowledge matters. Our Exeter drivers know that Fore Street is pedestrianised, that Magdalen Road gets congested at school run time, and that the access road to Newcourt is tight on refuse collection days. That knowledge saves time and avoids problems.
Availability when you need it. Exeter has a fast-moving property market. Completion dates shift, landlords give short notice, and student tenancies end abruptly. We maintain same-day and next-day availability across most of the year, with extended cover during the July-to-September peak.
We care about your things. Every item is wrapped, padded, and secured before it goes near a van. We have moved antique furniture from Exeter Cathedral Close, fragile ceramics from Topsham Road, and full office setups from Southernhay East without a single damage claim. That record comes from doing the job properly, not cutting corners.
Transparent communication. You get a named contact from the moment you book. No call centres, no automated systems, no hold music. Just a direct line to someone who knows your job.

UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Understanding them helps you book at the right moment.
The University of Exeter's academic year ends in late June, triggering a wave of student departures from the EX4 postcode. Private rental tenancies across the city also tend to renew or end in summer. Demand for removals in Exeter peaks sharply in the last two weeks of August and the first two weeks of September. If you need to move in this window, book at least three to four weeks ahead.
Sales agreed in January and February typically complete in this window, and competition for van slots on Fridays is particularly high.
If you have flexibility on your move date, shifting to a Tuesday or Wednesday in these months can save you 10 to 15 percent compared to a peak-summer Friday.
Most tenancy agreements and mortgage completions fall on the last working day of the month. If you can complete on the 15th rather than the 30th, you will find more availability and a calmer moving day.
You beat the inner ring road traffic and can usually complete loading before any parking restrictions become active. Call to check availability for your preferred date.
Giant Van has handled removals across Exeter for years, moving everything from single-room student clearances in the EX4 postcode to full five-bedroom family homes in Pinhoe and Heavitree.
Our crews know the city streets, the parking quirks, and the tight Victorian terraces that catch other removal companies off guard.
We carry public liability insurance, use fully equipped vans, and give you a named contact for every job.
