Braunstone: Parking and Access Sorted
A popular move we handle regularly is the man and van Shepshed Leicester corridor.
Shepshed sits about 14 miles north-west of Braunstone, just off the A512 near Loughborough. Many families and young professionals move between the two areas for work, schools, or lower rents. Giant Van runs this route several times each week.
The drive from Shepshed to Braunstone takes roughly 25 to 30 minutes via the M1 junction 23 or the A6.
We factor in traffic at peak times on the M1 approach and plan accordingly. Our GPS-tracked vans let you follow progress in real time, so you are never left guessing when your belongings will arrive at the new address.
Pricing for the Shepshed to Braunstone route starts at £54 per hour for a man and van with a standard long-wheelbase vehicle.
A one-bedroom flat on this route typically costs between £250 and £400 depending on access, parking, and the number of items. Two-bedroom properties run from £400 to £650. Three-bedroom houses start at £650 and go up to £900.
All prices include fuel, mileage, and a fully insured crew.

Quality and Care in Every Braunstone Move
Not every move is a full house clearance. Giant Van specialises in smaller jobs that other removal companies turn away. Single-item deliveries are one of our most popular services in Leicester.
Need a sofa moved from a seller in Wigston to your flat in Braunstone? We can do that. Picking up a fridge-freezer from a shop on Fosse Park and delivering it to Braunstone Park Road? Done. Fosse Park retail park on the A563 is three miles south of Braunstone, and we make deliveries from there regularly.
We also handle student moves in September and June when Leicester's rental market turns over. Students finishing at De Montfort or the University of Leicester often move into Braunstone because rents are lower than the city centre. Our man and van service starts at £54 per hour and suits a single room's worth of belongings perfectly.
Book through our app for instant pricing. Enter your collection and delivery addresses, pick a date and time, and confirm. You get a fixed price, not an estimate. Our driver calls 30 minutes before arrival so you are ready and the move stays on schedule. All single-item and student moves are fully insured the same as our full house removals.
