Man and Van Services in Richmond upon Thames
Richmond upon Thames is one of London's most in-demand areas for home moves. Properties here range from Victorian terraces in Kew Road to riverside apartments along the Embankment in TW9. Demand for a reliable man with van in Richmond stays high year-round, particularly between April and September when tenancy changeovers peak.
GPS TrackedSame-Day AvailableTrained Team
Giant Van operates dedicated crews based near the borough. We handle single-item collections, full flat moves and everything in between. Our man and van Richmond service starts from £45 for a local single-item job. A typical one-bedroom flat move in TW10 costs between £120 and £180 depending on floor access and travel distance.
We cover every type of property in the borough. That includes the converted warehouse flats near Richmond Bridge, the large detached homes along Ormond Road in TW10 and the purpose-built student blocks near Kew Gardens station. Each booking includes two trained crew members, a tail-lift van and full goods-in-transit insurance up to £50,000.
You can book instantly through the Giant Van app. Select your pickup and drop-off, add any access notes and confirm. We send a confirmation within two minutes. For same-day man and van in Richmond, call and we'll confirm availability in under five minutes. Our GPS tracking means you always know exactly where your crew is.
Richmond Road Access and Parking Conditions
Richmond upon Thames has some of the most varied road conditions in south-west London.
Getting access right is the difference between a smooth move and unexpected delay. Our drivers know this borough in detail.
Controlled Parking Zones cover most of central Richmond, including Hill Street, Eton Street and the streets around The Quadrant in TW9.
Parking suspensions must be booked at least five working days in advance through Richmond Council at a cost of around £65 per day per bay. Giant Van can advise on this but the booking must be made by the property occupier.
Richmond Hill is a particular challenge.
The gradient along the hill between Friar's Stile Road and the Star and Garter Home means our drivers use low-ratio gears and always apply the handbrake at every stop. Properties above the 40-metre contour on Richmond Hill often have no direct van access to the front door. We use sack trucks and shoulder straps on these moves and always quote with a time buffer.
Kew Road (A316) and the junction at Richmond Circus are frequently congested between 7.30am and 9.30am and again between 4.30pm and 6.30pm.
We route around this by using Manor Road and Lower Mortlake Road for eastbound approaches. The Richmond Road Bridge narrows to single-file in each direction near the toll arches, so larger vehicles need to time their crossing carefully.
Petersham Road, running south from Richmond Bridge to Ham, has very limited stopping places.
Properties on Petersham Meadows side often require a 200-metre carry from the nearest safe stopping point. We factor this into every quote for the TW10 3 postcode area.

6 Tips
Here are five facts our crews have learned across hundreds of local jobs.
Richmond Council requires a minimum of five working days' notice for bay suspensions. Properties on Sheen Road, Kew Green and Friars Stile Road are inside CPZs and need suspensions on move day. Apply via the Richmond Council website or call them on 020 8891 7110.
Many apartment buildings in Richmond Riverside development in TW9 have lifts that measure just 80cm wide and 130cm deep. A standard three-seat sofa will not fit. Our crews will disassemble and reassemble at no extra charge, but we need to know in advance.
If your move route passes through the park via Roehampton Gate or Richmond Gate, your crew must be clear of the park before closing time. We plan routes to avoid this issue on afternoon jobs.
Between October and March, low-lying streets near Cholmondeley Walk can flood with as little as six hours' notice. Our operations team monitors Environment Agency alerts and reroutes if needed.
The narrow lanes between Vineyard and Downe House mean two-person carries are the norm. Our standard man and van Richmond booking already includes two crew members for this reason.

Why Richmond Residents Choose Giant Van
Residents and businesses in Richmond upon Thames choose Giant Van because we know this borough better than any general removal firm. Here is what sets us apart.
We are available seven days a week, including bank holidays. Richmond's property market does not stop at weekends, and neither do we. Our same-day man and van Richmond service operates 365 days a year. If you need to move at 7am on a Sunday in January, we will be there.
Every quote is instant and fixed. The price you see when you book is the price you pay. We do not add fuel surcharges, congestion charges or access fees after the job. Richmond is inside the ULEZ zone and our fleet is fully ULEZ-compliant, so there are no extra charges for operating in the borough.
Our crews are employed directly. We do not use agency workers or subcontract jobs to third parties. Every Giant Van driver serving Richmond is trained in-house, insured under our policy and accountable to us directly.
GPS tracking is live throughout every job. You can see your crew's exact position at any point during the move. This matters particularly for Richmond Hill and Petersham jobs where the route can take longer than Google Maps suggests.
We are fully insured. Goods-in-transit cover is included up to £50,000. Public liability insurance covers £5 million. For high-value antiques or artwork moving from the many large properties in Petersham and Ham, we can arrange additional declared-value cover on request.

Best Times to Book Your Richmond Man and Van
7 Tips
Here is what we see from real booking data across the TW9 and TW10 postcode areas.
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday between 8am and 11am see the lowest traffic on Kew Road, Sheen Road and the A316. Parking bays are also more likely to be available without suspensions on residential streets in Ham and Petersham.
This is the most popular move day in Richmond borough and van availability across all companies tightens significantly. If you need to move on a month-end Friday, book at least 10 days in advance.
If your move is flexible, you can often secure a same-week slot at standard rates. Summer months (June to August) book up fastest, particularly for properties near Richmond Park and along the river in TW10.
The two weeks before September school term starts see very high demand for family removals. Book by late July if you are moving a family home in this window.
Call by noon and we can usually dispatch a crew for a same-afternoon start in TW9, TW10 or TW1.
Add this note at booking and we will confirm availability.
