Local Removal Companies

Sunderland removals that cross the River Wear need to plan their route carefully.

The main crossings are Wearmouth Bridge for city centre traffic and the A19 bridge at Hylton for movements between the north and south-western districts.

During morning rush hour, the approaches to Wearmouth Bridge from Pallion can queue significantly.

Giant Van plans cross-river moves for Sunderland to depart outside peak hours where possible.

For local moves within the same side of the river, this is not an issue.

North Sunderland to North Sunderland moves and South Sunderland to South Sunderland moves avoid the crossing entirely.

We cover all these routes daily.

Local removal companies in Sunderland need to cover the full SR postcode range to serve the city's diverse geography.

Giant Van covers Sunderland city centre and immediate suburbs (SR1, SR2, SR3), Roker, Seaburn and the seafront (SR6), Houghton-le-Spring to the west (SR5), Washington to the south-west (SR3 and DH3 areas), and Seaham to the east on the Durham coast (SR7).

The River Wear divides the city into north and south sections requiring deliberate route planning for cross-river moves.

Sunderland's regeneration areas around Sheepfolds, the seafront near Seaburn and the retail park at Doxford International are all within our standard coverage.

The A19, A183 and A1018 are our primary county corridors for moves beyond the city's boundaries.
