Man with a Van in Brighton

Brighton man with van jobs often involve Regency-era townhouses converted into flats — most lack lifts and have steep Georgian staircases that require furniture disassembly or careful manoeuvring.

Our two-person crews bring blankets, furniture straps and specialist stair equipment for every job.

The seafront properties between Hove Lawns and Palace Pier (BN1, BN3) are among Brighton's most awkward for large furniture — sofas and mattresses often need to come through sash windows on upper floors.

We assess access requirements before quoting.

Man-and-van services listed on Gumtree or social media in Brighton frequently advertise low hourly rates but do not disclose CPZ dispensation permit costs — which are the customer's liability if the driver receives a PCN.

Giant Van arranges dispensation permits in advance and includes the arrangement (not the permit cost) in our service.

The £25 permit fee is billed to you at cost.

Some Brighton man-and-van operators also charge hourly rates that escalate during CPZ permit searches, access negotiations, or parking searches — adding 30–60 minutes of charge with no progress on the move.

Our fixed-price model means no clock running during the time spent managing access.

BAR membership and goods-in-transit insurance distinguish us from unregistered sole traders.
