Man and Van Services in Guildford from £45
Giant Van has been moving people across Guildford and the wider Surrey corridor for years. We handle single-item collections, full flat moves, and everything in between. Our man and van Guildford service starts at £45 for a basic collection and delivery within the town.
GPS TrackedFixed PriceSame-Day Available
Guildford is a busy commuter town with a large student population from the University of Surrey. That means heavy demand for van hire around student move-out dates in late June and early September. We plan around this and keep vans available even at peak times.
Our service covers house removals from £250, office relocations from £300, furniture moves from £45, and packing from £150. Same-day jobs start from £80. Long-distance moves out of Surrey start from £500.
Every booking includes a two-man team on jobs over 100 kg, real-time GPS tracking via our app, and full goods-in-transit insurance. You always know where your van is and when it will arrive. No guessing, no chasing phone calls.
We work across all Guildford neighbourhoods. Merrow, Burpham, Shalford, Onslow Village, and the town centre are all regular run areas. If you are moving between these areas or heading out towards Godalming, Farnham, or Woking, we cover that too.

Guildford Access Conditions: What Every Move Needs
Guildford has some of the trickiest access conditions in Surrey.
Knowing this upfront saves time on the day and keeps your quote accurate.
The town centre has a pedestrianised High Street running from Tunsgate to North Street.
Delivery vehicles including removal vans must use the loading bay windows: 6:00am to 11:00am and after 4:00pm on weekdays. If you are moving from or to a property on or near High Street, schedule your slot accordingly.
North Street and Friary Street have limited van access due to bus gates.
Our drivers know the compliant routing via Sydenham Road and Mary Road to reach properties in the central GU1 1 area.
The Sycamore Road area in Merrow (GU1 2) has narrow residential streets with parked cars on both sides.
We use transit-sized vans rather than Luton lorries for these roads. Properties near Epsom Road and Merrow Street often need a parking suspension if you have multiple rooms of furniture. We advise booking this through Guildford Borough Council at least five working days before your move date.
Burpham Lane and New Inn Lane in the Burpham area (GU4 7) are single-track in places.
Our drivers approach from the A3 slip at Burpham and avoid the Merrow bypass route during school hours.
In Onslow Village (GU2 7), roads around Wilderness Road and Egerton Road are quiet but often have no off-street parking.
We carry cones and boards to protect driveways during loading.
Tell us your full postcode when you book and we flag access issues in advance.

7 Tips
These five steps take under an hour and they make your move faster.
If you live on a permit street in central Guildford, for example around Sydenham Road or Stoke Road, you need a loading exemption or you risk a Guildford Borough Council parking fine. Call the council's parking team on 01483 444444 to request a temporary suspension. Give at least five days' notice.
IKEA beds, shelving units, and desk frames take up three times the van space when assembled. If you cannot disassemble them yourself, add our packing service from £150 and we handle it.
Our team works faster when they know a box goes to "second bedroom" without having to ask.
In terraced streets around Stoke Road (GU1 1) this often means moving wheelie bins the night before collection day.
Stairwells in purpose-built blocks near Farnham Road (GU2 4) often have lift booking requirements. Contact your building manager the week before to reserve a lift slot during your move window.
That keeps your final bill at the lower end of your quoted range.

This includes the town centre, Stoke, Woodbridge Hill, Bellfields, and Park Barn.
In the eastern suburbs we regularly serve Burpham (GU4 7), Merrow (GU1 2), and Shalford (GU4 8).
The A25 corridor to Dorking is a common long-distance route for us.

We connect Guildford to the wider Surrey network daily.

Guildford Operations, Giant Van Driver
Why Guildford Residents Choose Giant Van
There are several van hire options in and around Guildford. Here is why customers come back to Giant Van and recommend us to neighbours.
We offer fixed-price quotes. What you see when you book is what you pay. No hourly rate surprises, no fuel surcharges added after the job, no invoice inflation for stairs. Guildford has properties with significant access challenges, particularly the Victorian terraces around Chertsey Street and the modern apartment blocks along Onslow Street. We price these in at quote stage.
Same-day availability sets us apart from most Guildford van hire companies. If something changes last minute, a flat purchase completes earlier than expected, or you simply need to clear a property fast, call before 10:00am and we can usually get a van to you that day.
Our GPS tracking app means you always know where your van is. This matters in Guildford, where parking is time-limited in most central streets. You can time your arrival at the destination to match the van, reducing time standing on a restricted loading bay.
Fully insured goods-in-transit cover is included on every job. Many cheap van hire Guildford options exclude insurance or make you buy it as an add-on. Ours is built in.
We do not use subcontractors. Every Giant Van driver and handler is employed directly, DBS checked, and trained to our standards. You know who is coming to your home.

Best Times to Book a Man and Van in Guildford
7 Tips
Here is what we see across thousands of bookings in the GU postcode area.
If you can move on a Wednesday morning, you will find better van availability and quicker loading on Guildford's residential streets before the school-run traffic builds after 3:00pm.
This is peak move day nationally and Guildford is no different. Estate agent chains in the GU1 and GU2 areas typically complete on Fridays, which means high demand for vans and harder parking on residential streets.
Student lets around Egerton Road, Gill Avenue, and Stag Hill see very high van traffic during these windows. Book at least two weeks ahead if your move falls in these periods.
January is usually the quietest month of the year and often our lowest-priced period.
Sunday same-day is available but limited to one or two slots, so call first to check.
Rates reflect real-time availability so booking a day or two out often gets you a lower price than booking on the day.
Giant Van vs Other Man and Van Options in Guildford
7 Tips
On a typical two-hour Guildford move this sounds cheaper than Giant Van's fixed prices. But hourly rates grow fast when access is difficult. Narrow streets in Burpham, restricted loading bays on North Street, and multi-flight stairs in Stoke apartment blocks all add time to an hourly job. A quoted two-hour move often runs to three or four hours, and your bill doubles.
The price you see is the price you pay.
This protects the driver, not your belongings. Giant Van includes goods-in-transit insurance up to £50,000 on every booking, at no extra charge.
Giant Van does. You see your van's live location and get a 30-minute arrival alert, which is particularly useful when you are managing a Guildford parking suspension window.
Giant Van sends a two-person crew on all jobs above single-item collections.
Giant Van's fixed price removes all three risks.
Giant Van provides a man and van Guildford service covering all GU postcodes.
Same-Day Available
From a single sofa collection in Burpham to a full three-bedroom house removal in Merrow, our team handles the lift so you do not have to.

Man and Van Guildford — FAQs
How much does a man and van in Guildford cost?
Man and van Guildford prices start at £45 for a single-item collection and delivery within the GU postcode area. A typical one-bedroom flat move within Guildford costs between £120 and £200. Full house removals start at £250. Get a fixed price instantly online or call .
Do you offer same-day man and van in Guildford?
Yes. Same-day man and van Guildford is available if you call before 10:00am Monday to Saturday. Same-day jobs start from £80. Sunday same-day slots are limited, so call ahead to check availability before booking online.
Which Guildford postcodes do you cover?
We cover all GU1, GU2, GU3, and GU4 postcodes including the town centre, Merrow, Burpham, Shalford, Onslow Village, Woodbridge Hill, and Park Barn. We also run regular routes to Godalming, Woking, Farnham, and London from Guildford.
Are your vans insured for goods in transit?
Yes. Every Giant Van booking includes goods-in-transit insurance up to £50,000 in value. This covers your belongings during loading, transit, and unloading. For high-value items above £50,000, contact us before booking and we arrange additional cover.
Do I need a parking suspension for my Guildford move?
In many central Guildford streets, yes. Permit zones around Sydenham Road, Stoke Road, and Chertsey Street require a temporary parking suspension. Apply to Guildford Borough Council at least five working days before your move. We flag this when you book and advise on the right timing.
Can you help with student moves near the University of Surrey?
Yes. We regularly handle student moves in the GU2 7 area around Egerton Road, Gill Avenue, and Stag Hill. During late June and September move-out periods, demand is high. Book at least two weeks ahead during these windows to secure your preferred slot.
What is the difference between a man and van and a removal service?
A man and van typically covers smaller moves: single items, one or two rooms, or short-notice collections. A full removal service covers whole-house moves with packing, furniture disassembly, and dedicated large vehicles. Giant Van offers both, and your instant quote will recommend the right option for your job size.
How do I track my Giant Van driver on the day?
Download the Giant Van app before your move day. From the moment your driver leaves the depot, you can see their live location on a map. The app also sends a push notification 30 minutes before arrival, so you are always ready when the van pulls up.
