Homes and Flats We Move in Longbenton
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Longbenton: Services at a Glance
Longbenton borders Benton, Forest Hall, and Killingworth — all areas we cover regularly.
The suburb developed significantly in the 1950s and 60s as part of Newcastle's post-war housing expansion, which means many properties here are three-bedroom semis with standard access and gardens.
Our two-person crews arrive with a fully equipped van, furniture blankets, and dismantling tools for beds and wardrobes.
North Tyneside Council roads can be busy during school drop-off times, so we schedule morning starts for most residential moves to avoid delays.
Why Longbenton Layout Matters for Your Move
Giant Van handles removals out of Longbenton to destinations across the UK.
Many of our Newcastle-area customers relocate to other parts of the North East, but we also run long-distance moves to Yorkshire, the Midlands, and beyond.
Whatever the destination, you get the same crew, the same insurance cover, and the same transparent pricing.
Single items, studio flats, full family homes — we quote each one fairly.

Serving Every Part of Longbenton
Comparing a removal company in Newcastle upon Tyne with self-drive van hire comes down to cost, risk, and effort.
DIY van hire for a two-bed move in Longbenton typically costs £80 to £150 for the vehicle alone.
Add fuel, insurance excess, dollies, blankets, and the time cost of roping in friends, and the saving narrows fast.
Giant Van's full house moves from £149 include an experienced crew, all equipment, and goods-in-transit insurance.
Professional movers load a van in roughly half the time it takes an untrained team — and with far less risk of damage.
For Longbenton residents, the Tyne and Wear Metro doesn't help on moving day — a crewed, insured removal is the practical option for anything beyond a single box load.
