This avoids the cost and disruption of two separate removals.

Every Oadby Neighbourhood, Covered
Oadby in LE2 sits alongside Wigston and Glen Parva to the south of Leicester.
Compared to Wigston's denser terracing and council estate mix, Oadby is predominantly owner-occupied with a higher proportion of larger Victorian and inter-war semis and detached homes.
The University of Leicester presence brings a graduate population with active property turnover.
Glen Parva has more modern estate development and broader road access.
Removals Leicester-wide covering LE2 need to accommodate all three property types.
Giant Van's Leicester team covers Oadby, Wigston, and Glen Parva equally.
Residents moving from Oadby most commonly head to Market Harborough, Blaby, or out of Leicestershire to the wider East Midlands.
