Homes and Flats We Move in Horfield
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Our Offering in Horfield
Horfield sits in north Bristol, largely within the BS7 postcode, with pockets spilling into BS10. It is a suburb that mixes Victorian terraces on Gloucester Road with post-war semis on Filton Avenue and modern infill housing near the former Horfield Prison site on Cambridge Road. That variety means no two house removal jobs here are quite the same.
Giant Van has carried out house removals in Horfield, Bristol for customers moving to Westbury-on-Trym, Bishopston, Henleaze, and right across the city. We also handle long-distance moves from Horfield to London, Birmingham, and beyond, with pricing starting from £500 for cross-country routes.
Our removal crews arrive in a clean, sign-written Giant Van. They bring furniture blankets, shrink wrap, trolleys, and straps as standard. You pay for the job, not the equipment. House removals in Horfield start from £250 for a one-bedroom flat, rising to £850 for a five-bedroom family home with full packing included.
Book through our app, get a live GPS tracker for your van, and receive a written confirmation within minutes. There are no hidden fees, no fuel surcharges, and no cash-only conditions. We accept card on the day.
Every move is covered by our fully comprehensive goods-in-transit insurance, so your belongings are protected from the moment we lift them to the moment we set them down at your new address.
Access Solutions for Horfield Homes
Horfield has some access quirks that out-of-area removal firms routinely underestimate.
Our crews know them well.
Gloucester Road (A38) is one of the longest stretches of independent shops in the UK.
It is also a busy bus corridor with yellow line restrictions from 8am to 6pm on weekdays.
If you are moving from a property with frontage directly onto Gloucester Road, we schedule your loading window before 8am or book a Bristol City Council parking suspension in advance.
We handle the suspension application for you at cost, with no admin mark-up.
Muller Road carries heavy through-traffic during morning and evening peaks.
Properties on the residential streets that feed onto Muller Road, such as Bonnington Walk and Dovercourt Road, have narrow junctions that limit vehicle size.
We select the right van size before we arrive: a Luton van for most three-bedroom moves, or a pair of Transits for tight terraces where a Luton cannot get close enough to the front door.
Romney Avenue and the streets around Horfield Common have 20mph zones and speed cushions throughout.
Our drivers are experienced in manoeuvring heavy loads on these roads without rushing. The common itself provides useful staging for bulky items when pavement access is restricted.
Properties near the Lockleaze border on the eastern side of Horfield often have rear-access lanes shared with neighbours.
We assess shared access before arrival, confirm lane width with you, and bring the right equipment to avoid scraping gateways or blocking shared drives.
We will always tell you if your access requires a different loading strategy before we turn up on move day.

Work Out Your Moving CostGetting Ready for a Horfield Removal
They apply specifically to Horfield properties and the logistics of moving in this part of Bristol.
Gloucester Road, Filton Avenue, and Kellaway Avenue all have restricted parking managed by Bristol City Council. A parking suspension costs between £35 and £75 depending on the number of bays. Apply online at bristol.gov.uk at least 10 working days before your move date. We will remind you when you book.
Saturday mornings on Dorian Road and the surrounding streets see heavy footfall from the leisure centre. A Tuesday or Wednesday move keeps the road clearer and your crew moving faster.
Most Horfield terrace staircases have tight quarter-landings. IKEA wardrobes, MALM bed frames, and KALLAX units will not turn the corner in one piece. Our crews can dismantle and reassemble for a fee, but doing it yourself saves you money.
Our BS7 crews unload fast. Clear labels mean the right boxes go to the right rooms first time. It cuts your unpacking time in half.
If you are buying in a chain and your solicitor in Bristol is slow to release keys, we can store your belongings in our van at a holding rate rather than leaving you waiting on the pavement. Build this into your plan before the day.

House Removals in Horfield, Bristol — FAQs
How much does a house removal in Horfield, Bristol cost?
House removals in Horfield start from £250 for a one-bedroom flat and rise to £850 for a five-bedroom family home with full packing. Your fixed price is calculated instantly based on your inventory, access, and destination. Get your quote at giantvan.co.uk or call.
Do you offer same-day house removals in Horfield?
Yes. Same-day removals in Horfield, Bristol start from £80 for single-item moves and from £250 for full house removals, subject to crew availability. Message us before noon on the day you need to move. We despatch crews within three hours on weekdays when capacity allows.
Can you get a parking suspension on Gloucester Road for my move?
Yes. If your Horfield property fronts onto Gloucester Road or another restricted street, we advise you on applying for a Bristol City Council parking suspension at bristol.gov.uk. You need to apply at least 10 working days before your move date. Suspensions cost between £35 and £75 per bay and are paid directly to the council.
Are my belongings insured during a Giant Van removal in Horfield?
Yes. Every Giant Van removal in Horfield includes full goods-in-transit insurance as standard. There is no extra charge and no opt-in required. If you are moving high-value antiques, artwork, or specialist items, tell us when booking and we will confirm the appropriate coverage level before your move date.
How far ahead should I book a removal in Horfield, Bristol?
For a standard weekday move, two to three weeks notice is usually sufficient. For Friday moves, end-of-month dates, or moves in August and September, book four to six weeks ahead. Horfield and north Bristol see high demand during summer due to student tenancy turnover on and around Gloucester Road. Same-day slots are available by calling.
Do you cover removals from Horfield to other parts of Bristol?
Yes. We cover all moves from Horfield to Bishopston, Henleaze, Westbury-on-Trym, Lockleaze, Filton, Bradley Stoke, and all other parts of Bristol and South Gloucestershire. We also handle long-distance moves from Horfield to anywhere in the UK, with prices starting from £500 for a full house removal.
Can your crew dismantle and reassemble flat-pack furniture in Horfield properties?
Yes. Furniture dismantling and reassembly is available as an add-on service. Many Horfield terraces have tight quarter-turn staircases that prevent large flat-pack wardrobes and bed frames from being moved in one piece. Tell us about oversized items when you book and we will include the appropriate crew time in your fixed quote.
How does GPS tracking work on my Horfield removal?
The evening before your move, Giant Van sends you a live tracking link by text and email. From the moment your removal crew departs for your Horfield address, you can see the van's real-time location on a map. The same tracking link shows your van's progress to your new property once loading is complete.
No app download is required to use the tracking link.
