Services Available in Narborough
Pricing is straightforward. Our man and van service in Narborough starts from £54 per hour. That rate covers one driver and one large van. For most jobs in the LE19 area, two to three hours is enough.
A one-bedroom flat on Kingsway or in the Everards Meadow development typically costs £250 to £400 all in. A two-bedroom house in the older terraced streets off Desford Road runs £400 to £650. A three-bedroom semi on one of the residential estates near Narborough Road South comes in at £650 to £900.
Narborough sits roughly six miles south-west of Leicester city centre via the A46. That short distance keeps fuel costs low and means our crews can make return trips quickly. Where your route runs through a Congestion Charge zone, that cost is already in the price you're quoted.
Parking in Narborough is generally good. Most residential roads in LE19 1 and LE19 2 have no permit requirements, and street-side loading is straightforward. The exception is the commercial stretch near Narborough Road South closest to the Fosse Park junction, where yellow lines run during peak hours.
If you are moving from or to a property near that stretch, book an early morning slot to avoid delays.
All prices include blankets, straps and basic wrapping materials. Boxes and specialist packing materials are available as an add-on. You will receive an instant online quote before you confirm anything.
Driving Through Narborough: What We Know
Narborough is a compact village that has grown into a commuter suburb.
The housing stock mixes 1930s semis, 1970s council-era terraces and newer build estates. Each type brings its own access challenges, and our crews know them all.
The older properties off Station Road and Church Street have narrower front paths and lower ceilings in hallways.
Wardrobes and large sofas often need tilting or partial disassembly to exit. Our crew carry the right tools and do this as standard, at no extra charge.
The newer estates around Bewicke Road and the Everards Meadow quarter have shared parking courts rather than individual driveways.
These courts often have height barriers or narrow entrance points. Our standard vans clear most barriers, but if you live in a development with a known height restriction, mention it when you book and we will send an appropriate vehicle.
Narborough railway station is on the Ivanhoe Line and draws a steady flow of commuters.
Properties within walking distance of the station, particularly on Station Road and Leicester Road, tend to sell or let quickly. Move-out and move-in dates often fall on the same day, creating tight handover windows.
Giant Van offers early morning starts from 7 am to give you maximum time at both ends.
We are also familiar with access on Croft Road and King Street, where parked commuter cars narrow the road during morning and evening hours.
Booking before 8 am or after 6 pm avoids the worst of it. Our GPS tracking means you always know exactly when your crew will arrive.

Work Out Your Moving CostNarborough Moving Tips From the Team
Many businesses based here also have premises or clients in Loughborough, 15 miles north, and in Leicester city centre. We carry out office removals across this triangle regularly, and we know the route and the access conditions at both ends.
Units in Meridian Park have wide loading bays with dock levellers, which makes large furniture and racking straightforward to shift.
We always do a pre-move site visit for office jobs over £500 in value.
Traffic on the M1 junction at Loughborough can cause significant delays between 7 am and 9 am and again between 4 pm and 6 pm.
We carry full goods-in-transit insurance on every commercial job. If your business needs out-of-hours access to the new premises, we work around your tenancy agreement terms.

No Fuss: Booking in Narborough
- 01
Narborough attracts young professionals and students who want affordable rents within commuting distance of Leicester city centre and De Montfort University.
The journey from Narborough station into Leicester takes around 12 minutes by train, which makes the village popular for first-time renters.
- 02
Purpose-built flats and converted Victorian houses in LE19 often have awkward stairways and no lift access.
Ground-floor flats sometimes have raised thresholds or shared bin stores that block the most direct route to the street. Our crews are used to navigating these constraints and will plan the best route through your building before they start loading.
- 03
Flat moves in Narborough typically take two to three hours with a single man and van.
Adding a second pair of hands costs around £54 per hour extra and can cut the job time by 40 percent on a two-bedroom flat. For anything above the first floor with no lift, we recommend two crew members as standard.
- 04
Student moves at the end of the academic year, typically late June and late September, see the highest demand across the LE1, LE2 and LE19 postcode areas.
Booking at least a week ahead during those periods avoids disappointment. We do not charge a student surcharge. The hourly rate stays the same regardless of the customer.
- 05
Items left by previous tenants and needing disposal are handled separately.
We can arrange same-day rubbish removal as a bolt-on to any move job.

Full Narborough Area Coverage
Not every job is a full house removal.
We handle single-item deliveries and collections across Narborough and the wider Blaby district daily. This includes furniture from retailers, second-hand marketplace collections and charity shop donations.
Fosse Park retail park is less than two miles from Narborough village centre.
Many residents buy sofas, beds and white goods from the stores there and need them delivered the same day. We cover collections from Fosse Park to any LE19 address from £48 for a one-hour minimum slot.
IKEA at Coventry and DFS in Leicester are also common collection points for Narborough customers.
We can collect from either store and deliver to your address with two-person carry-in included. Beds and wardrobes are assembled on delivery if required, at £15 per item.
For marketplace purchases, we collect from the seller, transport the item and deliver it to your door.
This is particularly useful for large antique or vintage items that sellers cannot transport themselves. We cover collections within a 20-mile radius of Narborough as standard. Longer distances are quoted individually.
Single-item moves are billed by the hour with a one-hour minimum.
Most sofa or bed deliveries within Narborough take 45 to 60 minutes including loading, transport and carry-in. You pay only for the time used, rounded to the nearest 15 minutes after the first hour.
A Note From Our Narborough Team
We know Narborough well. Our drivers navigate the local streets daily, handling everything from narrow terraced house access to large detached properties. Every move is treated with care because our reputation in Narborough depends on it.
Giant Van operations
Dependable Narborough Removals Since Day One
Van hire looks cheaper on the surface. A Transit hire from a local company near Narborough runs around £70 to £90 for a day. Add fuel for journeys between LE19 and Leicester city centre and you are already at £100.
Then factor in the deposit, collision damage waiver and the time you spend driving an unfamiliar large vehicle on routes like the A46.
Physical risk is the bigger issue. Moving furniture in and out of Narborough's older terraced properties without training causes back injuries more often than people expect. A narrow staircase in a Victorian conversion on Church Street or Station Road is not forgiving of an inexperienced mover with a large chest of drawers.
With Giant Van, your hourly rate from £48 covers the vehicle, driver, fuel, goods-in-transit insurance and trained lifting assistance. You do not need to drive anything. You do not need to carry anything heavy. You keep control of the move via real-time GPS tracking on your phone.
The time comparison is also stark. A one-bedroom flat move that takes a professional crew two and a half hours typically takes a DIY team four to five hours, not counting rest stops or the second trip when the van turns out to be too small. Most Narborough moves we handle are complete before lunch.
For office removals linking Narborough and Loughborough, the professional option is the only realistic one. Disassembling workstations, transporting monitors and racking, and complying with insurance requirements for business contents are not practical for self-move.

When Narborough Streets Are Quietest
Giant Van vs DIY Van Hire in Narborough: What Actually Costs Less?
For a return journey from LE19 to Leicester city centre and back, add £10 to £15 in diesel. A collision damage waiver adds another £15 to £20. You are already at £105 to £125 before you have lifted a single box.
Narborough's older properties on Church Street and Station Road have narrow stairs and low-slung doorways. Moving a double wardrobe without a trained partner through a Victorian terrace hallway takes far longer than expected and carries real injury risk.
The same move done DIY on a rented Transit, with two friends helping, typically takes six to eight hours.
You keep your Saturday free. You do not drive anything. You do not owe anyone a favour.
Disassembling racking systems, packing server equipment and maintaining chain of custody for business documents requires professional handling. The liability risk of self-moving business property on a public road without specialist insurance is significant.
Narborough sits in the LE19 postcode, roughly six miles from Leicester city centre and just off the A46.
It is a genuine community with distinct character: older streets near the church and station, newer estates around Everards Meadow and Bewicke Road, and a busy commuter rail link into Leicester.
Every move here has its own specific access conditions, parking considerations and timing constraints.
Giant Van crews work in this postcode regularly and know what to expect before they arrive.

Man and Van Narborough — FAQs
How much does a man and van cost in Narborough, Leicester?
Man and van in Narborough starts from £54 per hour. A one-bedroom flat in LE19 typically costs £250 to £400 for the full job. A two-bedroom house runs £400 to £650, and a three-bedroom property £650 to £900. Prices include the driver, van, blankets and basic wrapping. No hidden extras for fuel or mileage within the Leicester area.
Can you do same-day removals in Narborough?
Yes. Same-day man and van bookings are available across the LE19 postcode seven days a week. Book through the Giant Van app before noon for the best chance of a same-day afternoon slot. Narborough is close to our Leicester operations, so we can typically dispatch a crew within two to four hours of booking.
There is no surcharge for same-day bookings.
Do you cover office removals between Narborough and Loughborough?
Yes. We carry out office removals on the full Narborough to Loughborough corridor via the A6 and A46 regularly. This includes business parks on Meridian Business Park near Narborough and commercial premises in Loughborough town centre. We schedule most office moves before 7 am or after 6 pm to avoid A46 peak-hour delays.
Full goods-in-transit insurance is included on every commercial job.
Is parking usually an issue for removals in Narborough?
Most residential streets in LE19 1 and LE19 2 have no permit requirements, and street-side loading is straightforward. The exception is the stretch along Narborough Road South near the Fosse Park junction, where yellow lines operate during peak hours. We recommend early morning slots for any property near that stretch.
On Station Road and Church Street, commuter parking can narrow access from 7 am to 9 am on weekdays.
How long does a typical house move in Narborough take?
A one-bedroom flat in LE19 takes two to three hours with a single man and van. A two-bedroom house takes three to four hours. Adding a second crew member reduces job time by around 40 percent and is strongly recommended for properties above the first floor or with narrow access.
Narborough's proximity to Leicester city centre means return trips are quick if a second load is needed.
Do you collect furniture from Fosse Park for delivery to Narborough?
Yes. Fosse Park is less than two miles from Narborough village centre and is one of our most common single-item collection points. We collect sofas, beds, wardrobes and white goods from any Fosse Park retailer and deliver to your LE19 address from £48. Two-person carry-in is included. Flat-pack assembly is available for an additional £15 per item.
Same-day collection and delivery is usually possible on weekday mornings.
What is the best time to book a removal in Narborough to avoid traffic?
For moves within Narborough or to Leicester city centre, 7 am to 9 am starts work well before commuter traffic builds on the A46 and Leicester Road. For moves to Loughborough, avoid the 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 6 pm windows when the A46 northbound backs up toward the M1.
Midday slots between 10 am and 2 pm offer the clearest roads for most routes out of LE19.
Are your vans insured for moves in Narborough?
Yes. All Giant Van vehicles are fully insured and all moves include goods-in-transit cover. Your belongings are protected from the moment our crew lifts the first item to the moment the last piece is in place at your new address.
For office removals in Narborough and the Loughborough corridor, we carry commercial goods-in-transit insurance covering business equipment, IT hardware and archival documents.
