Properties We Cover in Bath
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Bath: Man and Van Done Properly
For Man and Van Bath, Giant Van offers a full range of removal and collection services across Bath. Our most popular service is the standard man and van hire, which suits single-item collections, flat clearances, and short-distance moves within the city.
A single man with a luton van starts from £54 per hour, making it one of the most cost-effective options for students moving out of accommodation near the University of Bath on Claverton Down, or renters finishing a tenancy in Bathwick.
For larger moves, we provide full house removal packages. A two-bedroom property in Lower Weston or Larkhall typically costs between £250 and £450, depending on access and volume. Three-bedroom and four-bedroom houses in Combe Down or Odd Down fall in the £400 to £700 range.
We also handle office relocations, including businesses moving from the Guildhall Market area or commercial units in Riverside Business Park on St James's Parade. Office moves are priced from £300 to £600.
All services include a driver plus a minimum of one porter, furniture blankets to protect your belongings, loading and unloading, and careful securing of items in the van. We carry luton vans, Sprinter vans, and 7.5-tonne vehicles depending on the volume of your move.
You can book a specific vehicle size or let us assess based on a list of items you provide over the phone. Additional services such as packing and storage can be added when you call.
Driving to Your Bath Man and Van Address
Looking for Bath Man with a Van?
Bath is a UNESCO World Heritage city and its road layout reflects that history. The city centre around the Roman Baths, Pulteney Bridge, and the Royal Crescent has very limited vehicle access.
Several streets in the BA1 postcode, including Queen Square and much of the city centre, operate pedestrian-priority zones or timed access restrictions.
Our drivers are familiar with these rules and plan routes accordingly to avoid penalty charges landing on your account.
Parking is a significant consideration for any man and van bath move.
We secure loading bays or apply for temporary parking suspensions on streets such as Lansdown Road, Guinea Lane, and Bennett Street.
If you live in a Georgian terrace in Bathwick, you should advise us at booking if there is no dedicated parking, as we may need to stop in a marked loading bay on Great Pulteney Street and carry items a short distance on foot.
Bath's hilly terrain also affects move times.
Properties above Widcombe Hill or on the steep lanes approaching Bathampton require extra handling time because of gradient and narrow access. We always factor this into your quote so there are no surprises on the day.
The A36 and A4 are our primary approach roads for vehicles coming from outside Bath, and we monitor traffic on these routes using live tools.
The M4 at Junction 18 is our main motorway link for long-distance jobs arriving into or departing from Bath.
Man and Van Bath Prices
Our pricing covers the full range of removal needs across Bath. Man and van hire for single items, small collections, or short flat moves starts from £54 per hour with a one-hour minimum. Most single-item moves within BA1 or BA2 cost between £45 and £120.
Full house removals are priced by property size. A one-bedroom flat in Bathwick or Oldfield Park is typically £250 to £350. Two-bedroom properties in Lower Weston or Larkhall run from £300 to £500. Three-bedroom and four-bedroom family homes in Combe Down, Odd Down, or Weston cost between £500 and £850, depending on volume and access.
Office relocations in Bath are priced from £300 to £600 for standard moves. Larger commercial premises or moves involving specialist equipment are quoted individually.
All prices include loading, transport, and unloading. Furniture blankets and strap tie-downs are included. Packing materials, dismantling, reassembly, and storage are available as paid add-ons. No hidden charges, no fuel supplements within the Greater Bath area, and no extra costs for weekend moves. Message us in the live chat for a written fixed quote.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.
Work Out Your Moving CostWhat Bath Man and Van Customers Do First
Book at least 72 hours in advance if your property is on a restricted street in the city centre. This gives us time to arrange parking dispensations with Bath and North East Somerset Council.
Georgian and Victorian properties across Widcombe, Bathampton, and Batheaston frequently have narrow front doors and tight stair turns that can make moving large sofas or double wardrobes awkward.
Beds, wardrobes, and shelving units from retailers are almost always faster to move in pieces. We can reassemble on request but it does add time.
This is the single biggest cause of delay on moving day. A 60-litre box of books can weigh 40 kg and risks injury to our porters.
When we unload into your new property on Newbridge Hill or Odd Down, clear labels mean we place each box exactly where it needs to go the first time.
Jewellery, documents, laptops, and passports should travel with you personally rather than in the van.
Bath City Centre sorting office serves the BA1 postcode.
We need to know in advance if a service lift is required or if there are time restrictions on its use.

Giant Van operations
Our Man and Van Commitment in Bath
Giant Van has built its reputation on reliable, transparent service.
Every driver on our Bath rota holds a full UK driving licence with the appropriate category for the vehicle operated.
Our porters are trained in safe manual handling techniques, which matters on Bath's steep residential streets and in Georgian properties with narrow staircases.
We do not use agency staff or subcontractors for local Bath jobs.
The team that answers your call is the same team that shows up on move day.
This matters because local knowledge transfers directly to move quality.
Our drivers know that parking on Pulteney Road requires a permit, that the lane approaching Combe Down from Prior Park Road is single-track past the roundabout, and that the residents-only zones in Lansdown are enforced from 8am.
Pricing is fixed and written.
We do not apply hidden fuel surcharges, London congestion-style supplements within the city, or waiting charges for the first 15 minutes.
Our standard quote includes two hours of work for man and van jobs; any additional time is charged at the agreed hourly rate listed on your confirmation.
We are fully insured for goods in transit and public liability.
If something is damaged during a move, we have a clear claims process.
Message us in the live chat to check availability or to discuss a specific requirement.

When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Plan Man and Van Around Bath Traffic
Properties around Oldfield Park, Twerton, and Bathwick see heavy turnover on these dates because of the volume of student and private rental accommodation in those areas.
University of Bath and Bath Spa University student moves, combined with families relocating before the new school year, push demand to its highest point. We take bookings from mid-May for September slots. If you are planning a summer move in Bath, earlier is always better.
Friday moves are the second busiest day after month-end dates. Saturday is our busiest single day of the week.
If your move is flexible, a January or February date offers the most availability and, in some cases, the lowest prices.
Man and Van Bath vs. Full Removal Company: Which Do You Need?

Do you move to and from the Bath city centre?
Yes. We move regularly within and around the city centre, including streets near the Roman Baths, Royal Crescent, and Pulteney Bridge. Our drivers know Bath's restricted access zones, pedestrian-priority streets, and timed parking rules. We plan routes in advance and, where needed, apply for temporary parking dispensations through Bath and North East Somerset Council to avoid delays or fines.

Yes. Every Giant Van booking includes goods-in-transit insurance as standard. Your belongings are covered from loading at the collection address through to unloading at the destination. We also supply furniture blankets and strap tie-downs for all jobs. If anything is damaged during the move, we have a straightforward claims process.

Mid-week dates from Tuesday to Thursday offer the most availability and are easiest to book on short notice.

Yes. We handle a large volume of student moves each year in Bath, covering the University of Bath on Claverton Down and Bath Spa University.
