Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Alwoodley sits in north Leeds, roughly four miles from the city centre. It covers the LS17 postcode district and includes areas like Alwoodley Gates, Alwoodley Park, and the streets running off King Lane. The housing stock here is varied. You will find 1930s semis, large detached family homes, and purpose-built apartments near Alwoodley Lane, alongside smaller terraced properties closer to the Moor Allerton boundary.
Giant Van operates in Alwoodley every week. Our removals teams know the area well, including the one-way systems around Tarn Lane and the restricted turns near Alwoodley Primary School on Wigton Lane. We bring a two-person crew on every house move, so there is always a driver and a loader working together.
Our standard house removals service covers full loading and unloading, furniture wrapping, van blankets for all items, and GPS-tracked transport. Prices start from £250 for a smaller property and reach up to £850 for a large family home. We give you a firm quote before we start, with no surprise charges added on the day.
If you need packing too, we can supply boxes, bubble wrap, and tape, with packing labour from £150. That service is popular with clients on Plantation Drive and Sandhill Oval who are moving to properties further afield and want everything handled in one visit. Book online, by phone, or through the Giant Van app. We will confirm your slot within the hour.
Alwoodley has access challenges that removals crews from outside Leeds sometimes underestimate.
The A61 Harrogate Road runs along the western edge of the area and carries heavy traffic during morning and evening peak hours. Our drivers avoid this route between 7:30am and 9:00am and again from 4:30pm to 6:30pm when booking timed moves in LS17.
King Lane is the main east-west artery through Alwoodley.
Parking bays are limited outside many properties on King Lane itself. For moves on this road, we ask clients to reserve a space with a council-issued parking suspension at least 48 hours in advance. We can advise you on applying for this through Leeds City Council if needed.
The residential streets off Wigton Lane, including Balmoral Drive and Sandmoor Drive, are relatively wide and accessible.
Our standard 3.5-tonne Luton van fits without difficulty. However, the cul-de-sac layouts near Alwoodley Gates mean we sometimes need to perform multiple forward-and-back manoeuvres to reach front doors. Our crews factor this into the time estimate.
Tarn Lane, near Moortown, has a narrow section close to the junction with Street Lane.
If your property access falls on this stretch, we will send a crew familiar with that road. All of this local knowledge is built into how we quote and schedule your job, so you are not paying for time wasted on a driver getting lost or misjudging access.
All prices are fixed and confirmed before your move starts. No surprises on the day. Man and Van: £45 to £300. Suitable for single-item moves, small flats, and student properties near Moortown. House Removals: £250 to £850. Covers one-bedroom flats through to large five-bedroom family homes. Two-person crew, blanket wrapping, and goods-in-transit insurance included. Office Removals: £300 to £600. For small office moves within or from LS17. Furniture Removals: £45 to £120. Single items such as sofas, beds, and wardrobes. Includes transit blanket and strap securing. Packing Service: From £150. Crew supplies boxes, tape, and bubble wrap. Labour and materials included in this price. Piano Removals: £150 to £400. Upright and grand pianos. Specialist handling, blanket wrap, and trolley use included. Same-Day Removals: From £80. Subject to crew availability in LS17. Call 020 3129 6180 before 9:00am for same-day jobs. Long-Distance Removals from Alwoodley: From £500. Full UK coverage. Includes GPS tracking, two-person crew, and full insurance.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.
Get your exact priceGetting organised in advance saves time and reduces cost. Here are five practical steps.
Leeds City Council processes these through the highways department. Without one, the crew must park further away and carry items a greater distance, which adds time.
Our crews cannot legally transport appliances with standing water inside. Most Alwoodley homes have American-style fridge freezers that need at least 12 hours to fully defrost. Do this the evening before your move.
IKEA wardrobes and bed frames from properties on Plantation Drive and Sandhill Oval add 30 to 45 minutes per item if our crew must do it. If you want us to handle dismantling, add this to your quote and we will budget time for it.
Your new home gets loaded faster when every box is marked "master bedroom" or "kitchen" rather than "books" or "pots." Use coloured tape or a marker pen.
Move bins, garden furniture, and any vehicles before 7:30am on move day. Our crew starts the clock at the booked time, and a blocked path costs you money.
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 house removal we carry out in Alwoodley includes a fixed set of services as standard.
Nothing is hidden in the small print.
You get a two-person crew for all house removals.
One person drives and oversees loading; the second focuses on protecting and carrying items.
For larger properties on Sandmoor Drive or Balmoral Drive with four or more bedrooms, we recommend a three-person team.
Ask when you request your quote.

Sofas, dining tables, wardrobes, and beds are blanket-wrapped and secured with load straps.
This is standard, not an upgrade.

Alwoodley homeowners have used Giant Van repeatedly because we solve the problems that cheaper operators create. Here is what clients in LS17 tell us makes the difference.
Same-day availability. If your completion date is confirmed at short notice, or if your previous removals firm has let you down, we can often put a crew in Alwoodley within hours. This is not a guarantee, but it is a genuine operational capability that we maintain because demand for same-day moves in north Leeds is consistent.
Instant quotes with no negotiation. You enter the details, you get a price. That price does not change unless your job scope changes. Clients on Sandhill Oval and Balmoral Drive appreciate that there are no phone calls, no callbacks, and no inflated prices on the day.
App-based booking and GPS tracking. You can manage your entire move from your phone. Book, check crew location, track the van, and receive your receipt, all through the app. For clients coordinating between two properties on opposite sides of Leeds, this level of visibility removes a major source of anxiety.
Fully insured on every job. Our goods-in-transit insurance covers up to £50,000. This is not a paid add-on. It is included in every house removal we do in Alwoodley and across north Leeds.
A crew that knows LS17. We understand the access constraints on King Lane, the narrow stretch of Tarn Lane near Street Lane, and the cul-de-sac layouts near Alwoodley Gates. This knowledge saves time and prevents damage.

UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Here is what the booking patterns in north Leeds tell us.
Demand spikes sharply between Wednesday and Friday of any given week. If you have flexibility on your completion date, a Tuesday or Wednesday move costs the same but crew availability is significantly better.
Properties on Sandmoor Drive, Plantation Drive, and Wigton Lane are particularly active during this window as families with children at Alwoodley Primary or Alwoodley St Joseph's time their move before the new school year. Book at least three weeks ahead if your move falls in July.
Prices remain the same throughout the year, but crew availability during these months is at its highest. If you have the option of timing a non-urgent move, mid-January is the easiest period to guarantee the exact slot you want.
Same-day availability in LS17 runs at around 70% on weekdays. Weekend same-day availability is lower, around 40%, because of existing weekend bookings.
This gives us time to route the crew efficiently and pair your job with any return loads.
We are ready to move you.
That quote often changes on move day when the crew discovers stairs, long carries, or parking issues they were not told about.
You enter the job details online, the price is calculated based on real variables, and that price is locked. If the crew arrives and the job is as described, you pay what you were quoted. Full stop.
A single person carrying a four-door wardrobe down stairs on Sandmoor Drive is a safety risk and a slow process. Giant Van uses two-person crews on all house removals as standard.
Giant Van built this into the service from the start. You always know where your van is and when it will arrive.
With Giant Van, goods-in-transit cover up to £50,000 is included in every house removal price. You do not pay extra to protect your belongings.
Most firms book two to seven days out. Giant Van maintains same-day capacity in Alwoodley on most weekdays. Call 020 3129 6180 to check availability for today.
