Old Market Bristol: Every Type of Move Covered
Old Market Bristol sits at the eastern gateway of the city centre, straddling the BS2 postcode along Old Market Street and Bond Street. The area has changed fast. Former industrial units and Victorian terraces have been converted into flats, creative studios and small offices. People are moving in and out regularly, and they need a reliable van at short notice.
Giant Van charges from £54 per hour for a man and van in Old Market Bristol. That rate covers the driver, the vehicle and all the lifting. You pay for the time we work, nothing more. There are no hidden call-out charges and no fuel surcharges added at the end.
We know the local streets well. Old Market can be tight for larger vehicles, particularly around the junction with West Street and the lanes off Trinity Road. Our drivers navigate those roads every week. We also know where to load without blocking the cycle lane on the A420 corridor, which saves time and avoids unnecessary stress on your moving day.
Typical Old Market Bristol man and van jobs include single-item furniture collects from Gum Tree listings on Stapleton Road, small office clearances near St Matthias Park and student moves between BS2 and BS5. Whatever the job, we arrive on time and get it done properly. Book online in under two minutes or call.

Old Market Bristol: Mapped, Covered, Ready
Old Market Bristol sits close to several of Bristol's university campuses and student neighbourhoods.
Bristol City Centre campus, Fishponds and the streets around Stapleton Road all generate a steady flow of student moves into and out of the BS2 area each summer and at the end of term.
Student moves have specific needs.
Budgets are tight. Timelines shift. Landlords apply pressure at check-out time. Giant Van has handled hundreds of student removals across Bristol. We know how to move a room's worth of belongings quickly and carefully, and our hourly pricing keeps costs low for smaller loads.
A typical student move from Old Market to a new address in Clifton, Cotham or Stokes Croft takes between one and two hours with our man and van service.
That keeps the cost between £45 and £90 for most jobs.
If you are moving out of halls or a shared house and need a larger van for a group move, we can scale up with a bigger vehicle and additional crew.
Short-notice bookings are welcome.
We regularly take calls on the morning of a move and fit the job into the day's schedule. If you are in a bind and need a van in Old Market Bristol today, call and we will do everything we can to help.
