Shepshed: Every Type of Move Covered
Shepshed has grown fast over the last decade. New estates off Charnwood Road and Brook Street have added hundreds of homes to the LE12 postcode. That means more people moving in, moving out and needing reliable help with heavy furniture, large appliances and awkward staircases.
Giant Van was built around one promise: show up on time, handle your belongings carefully and charge a fair price. Every van in our fleet carries GPS tracking so you can follow your driver on our app in real time. All loads are covered by goods-in-transit insurance as standard, so there are no nasty surprises if something goes wrong.
Our crews know the roads around Shepshed well. We navigate the one-way section near the Bull Ring shopping area without confusion, and we understand the parking restrictions around Hathern Road during school hours. Local knowledge cuts time and saves you money.
We also offer a man and van in Shepshed Leicester for smaller jobs. Need to move a sofa from a flat on Hall Lane to a new address in Loughborough? That is a one-hour job at £45. No call-out fee, no hidden call-out charges. Just straightforward help when you need it.
Same-day bookings are accepted until 10 pm the night before, and our instant online quote takes under sixty seconds to complete. No waiting for a callback, no vague price ranges. You see your total before you commit.

The Giant Van Difference in Shepshed
For Leicester residents, moving in Shepshed comes with a few local considerations worth knowing before your removal day. Keeping these in mind will help your job run faster and keep your costs down.
Parking on removal day can be tight near the Bull Ring and along Hall Lane. If you live in this area, contact Charnwood Borough Council at least a week in advance to request a temporary parking suspension. This reserves a space directly outside your door and saves the crew from carrying items long distances across the street.
The A512 can see slow traffic during morning and evening peak hours, particularly around the Shepshed bypass junction. If your move involves travelling to Loughborough or back, booking a morning slot before 8 am avoids the worst delays.
New-build properties on estates near Britannia Way sometimes have narrow roads with tight turns. Let us know your property type when you book so we can allocate the right vehicle size. A smaller Luton van is often more efficient than a large box van on these roads.
Label your boxes by room before moving day. It sounds simple, but it cuts unloading time significantly. Our crew will place each box in the correct room without needing to ask, and you will spend less time hunting for your kettle and mugs on the first night.
Finally, disconnect your appliances the day before. Washing machines, dishwashers and American-style fridge-freezers need draining and securing before they can be moved safely. We carry transit bolts and appliance trolleys, but we cannot drain water from a machine on the day without adding time to your booking.
