Homes and Flats We Move in Greenwich
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Professional House Removals in Greenwich
Greenwich is one of south-east London's most distinctive boroughs.
It mixes Regency townhouses, 1960s estates, and new-build riverside apartments in a compact area.
That variety means removals in Greenwich require local knowledge that a generic van-hire company simply does not have.
Giant Van has carried out hundreds of house removals across SE10 and the surrounding postcodes.
Our crews are familiar with the parking restrictions on Straightsmouth, the narrow turning circle at the foot of Royal Hill, and the loading bay rules near the covered market on Greenwich High Road.
We offer a full house removals service starting from £250 for a standard two-bedroom property.
Larger homes with four or more bedrooms typically fall between £600 and £850 depending on volume and travel distance.
You get a fixed quote before we arrive.
Every charge, including access, distance and clean-air zones, is shown in your quote before you pay.
What we quote is what you pay.
Our app lets you book, track your crew in real time via GPS, and receive a digital receipt the moment the job is complete.
Every move is handled by experienced, vetted crews.
Every crew you meet works directly for Giant Van, which means accountability sits with us from start to finish.

Access Solutions for House Removals in Greenwich
Greenwich presents specific logistical challenges that catch out removal companies unfamiliar with the area.
Understanding these conditions before moving day saves time and avoids fines.
The A206 Woolwich Road and the A2 New Cross Road are the main arterial routes into Greenwich but both carry heavy through-traffic during morning and evening peaks.
Our drivers plan arrival times to avoid the worst congestion, typically scheduling lifts before 8:30am or after 6:30pm on these corridors.
SE10 includes a number of controlled parking zones.
Streets around Greenwich Park, including Maze Hill and Crooms Hill, operate resident permit zones from 8am to 6pm Monday to Saturday. We apply for a suspension permit at least 48 hours in advance for any property on these streets.
The permit costs approximately £55 per day from the Royal Borough of Greenwich and we pass this on at cost with no markup.
Narrow streets are common in the older parts of the borough.
Nevada Street, Prior Street, and the terrace rows off Blackheath Road require a short-wheelbase vehicle. Our fleet includes 3.5-tonne Luton vans and smaller Transit-sized vehicles, so we always dispatch the right size for the address.
For riverside properties near Greenwich Wharf and Hoskins Street, height barriers on some approach roads limit access to vehicles under 2.4 metres.
We check barrier heights at the planning stage, not on the day.
The Blackwall Tunnel southbound approach on the A102 affects journeys to Deptford and Lewisham.
We factor tunnel timing into every cross-river job to avoid the 20-minute queues that build between 7am and 9am.

Work Out Your Moving CostBefore Your Greenwich House Removals: Key Steps
Follow these steps and your moving day will run to plan.
The Royal Borough of Greenwich requires a minimum of five working days notice for a parking suspension. If you are moving from a permit-controlled street such as Park Vista, Feathers Place, or any road within 200 metres of the town centre, apply the moment your completion date is confirmed.
Victorian terraces on Royal Hill and Gloucester Circus often have steep, narrow stair returns that make large sofas and mattresses impossible to carry upright. Measure the narrowest point on the stair and the height of each landing. Send the measurements to us in advance.
Our crews work faster when each box has a clear destination room written on the top and two sides. It cuts sorting time at the new property by an average of 45 minutes on a typical three-bedroom move.
A wet fridge floods box contents and can cause a slip hazard in the van. Greenwich flats, particularly those in the Millennium Village development on East Parkside, often have built-in units that take longer to defrost than freestanding models.
Greenwich council provides an online change-of-address portal that updates multiple services at once. Getting this done before moving day means you are not chasing paperwork during the first week in your new home.

When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Quiet Periods for House Removals in Greenwich
Here is what our scheduling data shows about the busiest and quietest periods in SE10 and SE7.
Most property completions in England and Wales happen on a Friday, which means removal demand spikes sharply from 8am onwards. If you complete on a Friday, book your removal crew at least two weeks in advance.
Our standard house removals rates apply and crew availability is highest. If your solicitor and the chain agree, a Tuesday completion in Greenwich typically means you can book a crew at two to three days notice rather than two to three weeks.
Customers moving during the last two weeks of August should book six to eight weeks in advance.
Volume drops by roughly 40% compared to summer peaks. If you have flexibility on your moving date, a January or February move in Greenwich gives you the widest choice of slots and the lowest risk of delays caused by competing jobs.
Early starts beat the rush-hour congestion that can add 20 to 40 minutes to journey times on these routes after 8:30am.
We can usually confirm a slot within two minutes.
Giant Van vs Other Removal Companies in Greenwich
Giant Van quotes a fixed price before your move starts. Many competitors quote hourly rates that escalate if the job takes longer than expected. A two-bedroom Greenwich flat that takes three hours instead of two at £75 per hour costs you £75 more than you budgeted.
You do not know who is arriving at your home or whether they are insured. With Giant Van, every crew member is vetted, background-checked, and trained in-house.
Most Greenwich removal companies provide no visibility of where your belongings are during transit. Our app shows your van's live position from the moment it is loaded until it arrives at your new address.
Many competitors charge £25 to £50 per item for this service. We include standard flat-pack dismantling and reassembly in every house removals job.
If your move is urgent, message us in the live chat. We offer same-day availability in Greenwich more often than not, whereas most local companies require 48 to 72 hours notice minimum.

Moving Guides and Advice
House Removals Greenwich, London — FAQs
How much do house removals in Greenwich cost?
House removals in Greenwich start from £250 for a one-bedroom property and typically cost between £400 and £650 for a three-bedroom house. The final price depends on the volume of belongings, access conditions at both addresses, and if you need packing or storage. Giant Van provides a fixed quote before the move starts.
Call for a price specific to your address.
Do I need a parking suspension for my Greenwich removal?
Most streets in SE10 and SE7 require a parking suspension if you need to park a large removal van directly outside your property. The Royal Borough of Greenwich charges approximately £55 per day for a suspension permit and requires five working days notice. Giant Van arranges the suspension on your behalf when you book.
We pass the permit cost on at cost with no administration fee added.
Can you do same-day removals in Greenwich?
Yes. Giant Van offers same-day removals in Greenwich starting from £80, subject to crew availability on the day. Same-day bookings must be confirmed by phone. Call as early as possible to check whether a crew is available for your required time slot. We fill same-day slots from morning onwards so earlier calls have better availability.
Which postcodes in Greenwich do you cover?
Giant Van covers all Greenwich postcodes including SE10, SE7, SE3, SE2, SE28, and DA16. We also cover neighbouring areas including Lewisham (SE13), Deptford (SE8), Woolwich (SE18), Eltham (SE9), and Blackheath (SE3). For long-distance moves from Greenwich to other UK cities, our service starts from £500. Message us in the live chat to confirm coverage for your specific address.
Are my belongings insured during a Giant Van removal?
Yes. The insurance covers your belongings from the moment the crew begins loading at your current address until the final item is placed at your new property. If you have high-value items above £50,000 in total, speak to our team before booking so we can advise on additional cover.
Do you dismantle and reassemble furniture as part of the removal?
Yes. Dismantling and reassembly of standard flat-pack furniture is included in every Giant Van house removals job at no extra charge. This covers beds, wardrobes, bookcases, and dining tables that were originally assembled from flat-pack. Bespoke or antique furniture requiring specialist joinery is assessed individually. Our crew will confirm on arrival whether any item requires additional time before they begin.
How far in advance should I book a Greenwich removal?
For weekday moves in January, February, or March, two to three days notice is usually enough. For Friday moves, August moves, or any move during the last week of a school term, book two to four weeks in advance.
Greenwich has a high density of property transactions and removal demand can be tight, particularly in SE10 town centre where parking suspensions also need advance planning. Use the Giant Van app to check real-time availability for your preferred date.
Can you move a piano from a Greenwich property?
Yes. Giant Van carries out piano removals across Greenwich from £150 for an upright piano and up to £400 for a baby grand depending on size, stair access, and destination. We use specialist piano boards, straps, and protective wrapping.
Our crews have moved pianos from properties on Crooms Hill and from narrow terrace houses near Blackheath Village where stair access is tight. Call for a fixed piano removal quote.
