Last-Minute Moves We Cover in Taunton
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Professional Last Minute Removals in Taunton
Giant Van handles the full range of last minute taunton removals, from a single sofa shift to a full three-bedroom house.
Our fleet of Luton vans, Sprinters, and Transits is based within reach of Taunton town centre, so we can reach addresses in Vivary Park, St James, Holway, Priorswood, Taunton Deane, and the villages along the A361 corridor the same day you call.
Man and Van jobs start from £48 and suit students, single-room moves, or bulky items that need a strong pair of hands. Full house removals start from £250 for a one-bedroom property and reach up to £850 for larger homes with heavy furniture and long access routes.
Office and business moves start from £300 and go up to £600 depending on floor access and the volume of equipment.
We do not charge a booking fee for last minute slots, and we do not inflate prices because you need us urgently. The rate you get on the phone is the rate you pay. Our crews carry blanket wraps, furniture straps, and floor protection as standard, so your goods travel safely even when the timeline is tight.
Taunton Last Minute Removals Logistics: Access and Routes
Taunton presents specific access challenges that our crews know well.
The one-way system through Corporation Street, North Street, and Fore Street means routing matters. We plan approach roads before arrival so we are not doubling back through the town centre at peak times.
In TA1 postcodes around East Reach and Upper High Street, parking restrictions apply Monday to Saturday until 6 pm.
We carry a temporary loading permit application and advise you to contact Somerset Council parking services on the morning of your move if a bay suspension is needed.
For TA2 addresses in Rowbarton and Norton Fitzwarren, access to older terraced properties can mean tight garden paths.
Our crews assess this on the call and bring appropriate trolleys.
The A38 through Taunton town centre and the junction at the M5 at junction 25 are the main arteries we use for long-distance last minute jobs.
For rural addresses near Bishops Lydeard, Milverton, or Wiveliscombe we factor in country lane width when selecting the right vehicle size.
The River Tone and its flood plain also affect some roads in Firepool and around the Taunton Riverside development, particularly in winter months, so our drivers always carry alternative routing options.
New-build estates at Monkton Heathfield and Creech St Michael often have temporary road closures.
We check these the morning of your job.
Clear Pricing for Taunton Removals
Giant Van publishes its starting prices because we believe you should know what to expect before you call. Man and Van jobs start from £48 for short local moves and reach up to £300 for larger loads or longer distances from TA postcodes.
Full house removals start from £250 for a one-bedroom property and go up to £850 for a four-bedroom house with heavy or specialist furniture. Office removals start from £300 and reach up to £600 depending on the volume of equipment, floor access, and whether out-of-hours working is required.
All prices are fixed on the call and include the crew, the van, blanket wraps, floor protection, and goods-in-transit insurance. There are no hidden fuel surcharges and no weekend premiums. Message us in the live chat for your exact price.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.

Nothing Extra for Last Minute Removals in Taunton

Man and van bookings include one driver with a full UK HGV licence and the option to add a second person at the time of booking.
Blanket wraps and furniture pads cover sofas, dining tables, mattresses, and white goods at no extra charge.
We carry furniture straps rated to 500 kg per strap so heavy wardrobes and American-style fridge freezers are loaded safely.
Floor and door frame protection is fitted before any item crosses your threshold.
This matters particularly in rented properties where you are responsible for the condition of the floors and paintwork on departure.

We charge a flat rate of £30 per item for flat-pack dismantling and rebuild.
This covers IKEA PAX wardrobes, MALM bed frames, and most flat-pack dining sets.

The Taunton Last Minute Removals Booking Process
- 01
Throughout Taunton, step 1: Our team answers seven days a week.
Tell us your collection address, delivery address, and the rough volume of items. For house moves, we count bedrooms. For man and van jobs, a room-by-room description takes under two minutes.
- 02
Get your confirmed price.
We give you a fixed price on the call, not an estimate. The price does not change unless the job scope changes substantially on arrival, in which case we agree any variation with you before starting.
- 03
Confirm your time slot.
We offer morning slots from 7:30 am and afternoon slots from 1 pm. For urgent same-day jobs we will tell you the earliest available slot honestly. In many cases, particularly for TA1 and TA2 postcodes, we can be with you within two hours of your call.
- 04
We arrive, load, and deliver.
Our crew calls 30 minutes before arrival. We complete a walk-through of your items with you, protect floors and frames, load in a sequence that protects your most fragile pieces, and deliver directly to your new address with a full unload and placement service.
Payment is taken by card, bank transfer, or cash on completion. You pay in full when you book — there's no deposit and nothing to pay on the day.

Village collections are a regular part of our work.
Addresses on narrow lanes near Trull, Cheddon, Broomfield, and Kingston St Mary are familiar routes for our drivers. We always send the right-size vehicle for rural access.

We know Taunton well. Our drivers navigate the local streets daily, handling everything from narrow terraced house access to large detached properties. Every move is treated with care because our reputation in Taunton depends on it.
Giant Van operations
Quality Last Minute Removals in Every Taunton Job
Taunton has several removal companies, but very few operate a genuine same-day service with fixed pricing and trained crews. Most local firms require at least 48 hours notice. Giant Van built its last minute removals operation specifically for the cases where waiting is not an option.
Our crews have completed hundreds of moves in Taunton. They know that the car park on Wood Street fills by 8 am and blocks approach to nearby residential streets. They know the tight access on Leycroft Road near the Blackbrook Business Park. They know which roads around the Somerset County Cricket Ground see heavy match-day parking between April and September.
This local knowledge saves time and avoids the problems that catch out crews unfamiliar with the area.
We are transparent about pricing and do not operate a surge model for urgent bookings. A man and van job at 7 am costs the same as one at 3 pm. A Saturday booking costs the same as a Wednesday booking.
This straightforward approach has earned us repeat business from letting agents working in Taunton town centre, property management companies overseeing student accommodation near Taunton College on Wellington Road, and homeowners across the TA postcode area.
We operate under a strict no-smoking policy in and around your property. We respect your home and your schedule.

When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
The Smart Time for Last Minute Removals in Taunton
Rental tenancy agreements in Somerset typically run from the 1st, so landlords and tenants are both trying to move on the same narrow window.
The 7:30 am and 8:30 am bookings fill first because customers want to maximise daylight and avoid afternoon traffic on the M5 and A303. If you can be flexible, a mid-morning or early afternoon start often means a crew that is rested rather than on their third job of the day.
Call at least 24 hours ahead if you can during this period, even for a last minute job.
Same-day availability is almost always confirmed within an hour of calling during this period, and there is greater flexibility on time slots and vehicle size.
Our team will always tell you honestly what is available and what the next best option is if your first-choice slot is taken.
Giant Van vs Standard Removals Companies in Taunton
Giant Van has completed same-day jobs from addresses across Taunton including Priory Avenue in TA1, Bindon Road in TA2, and rural collections from lanes near Trull and Halse with no access issues.
Our fleet includes 3.5-tonne Luton box vans with tail lifts, ideal for heavy items on multi-floor properties where carrying down stairs is not practical.
The tail lift removes the risk of injury and damage to banisters in older properties.
For office moves in Taunton, we work outside standard business hours to avoid downtime.
Collections from the Blackbrook Business Park, Priorswood Industrial Estate, and offices in the town centre near The Crescent can be arranged for 6 am or after 6 pm.
We supply wardrobe boxes for hanging files and padded cases for monitors and printers as part of our office removal package.

Last-Minute Removals Taunton — FAQs
How quickly can Giant Van get to my address in Taunton?
For TA1 and TA2 postcodes, we can often arrive within two hours of your call. For TA3 and TA4 addresses, including villages near Bishops Lydeard and Wiveliscombe, allow two to three hours. Availability depends on current bookings, so calling early in the day gives you the best chance of the fastest slot.
Do you charge extra for last minute or same-day bookings in Taunton?
No. Giant Van does not apply a same-day premium or urgency surcharge. The price for a last minute taunton removals job is the same as a job booked a week ahead. Man and Van starts from £48, house removals from £250, and office moves from £300. You receive a fixed price on the phone before any work begins.
What areas around Taunton do you cover for same-day removals?
We cover all TA postcodes including TA1, TA2, TA3, and TA4. This includes Taunton town centre, Holway, Priorswood, Norton Fitzwarren, Creech St Michael, Bishops Lydeard, and surrounding villages. For moves out of Taunton, we travel to Bristol, Exeter, Bath, Bridgwater, Yeovil, and across the UK on request.
Is there parking on move day in Taunton town centre?
Town centre streets including Corporation Street, Fore Street, and East Reach have loading restrictions during business hours. We advise customers to contact Somerset Council parking services the morning of the move if a bay suspension is needed. Our crews know alternative approach routes and plan for access before arrival to avoid delays in restricted areas.
Do you dismantle and reassemble furniture on last minute removals?
Yes. Dismantling and reassembly is available as a paid add-on at £30 per item. This covers flat-pack wardrobes, bed frames, and most IKEA furniture. Our crews carry the tools needed. We recommend disassembling large items in advance where possible, as this reduces loading time and can lower the overall cost of your move.
What insurance do you carry on Taunton removals jobs?
These are included in the quoted price with no excess for claims under standard moving conditions. We carry these as standard because we believe proper insurance is a basic requirement, not an optional extra to sell on top of the removal fee.
Can you move me out of a rented property in Taunton on the same day?
Yes. We regularly handle end-of-tenancy moves in Taunton at short notice. Our crews carry floor and door frame protection as standard, which matters in rented properties where you are responsible for the condition of the floors and paintwork at checkout. We can often be at your TA1 or TA2 address within two to three hours of your call.
Do you handle office removals in Taunton at short notice?
Yes. Office removals start from £300 and we work outside standard business hours to minimise disruption. We cover office locations at Blackbrook Business Park, Priorswood Industrial Estate, and the town centre. We supply padded cases for monitors and wardrobe boxes for hanging files. Message us in the live chat to discuss your business relocation requirements directly with our team.
