Man with Van Eastwood, Nottingham

Access in Eastwood varies considerably depending on which part of town you are in.

Our drivers know the area, but here is what to expect so you can plan your move properly.

Nottingham Road (the A610 corridor through town) carries heavy traffic during morning and evening peak hours.

If you are loading from a property on or near Nottingham Road, a mid-morning slot between 10am and 12pm is your best option. Street parking is limited along this stretch and a double yellow line runs for much of it. We sometimes need a five-minute drop-off window with hazards on, which our drivers handle confidently.

The side streets off Sun Street and Plumptre Street in the older part of town are narrow.

Victorian terrace houses here often have no off-street parking and small front doors. Our drivers use smaller Transit vans for these addresses as standard. If your property has a particularly tight turning circle or a low-clearance gate, let us know when you book.

The newer estates around Bailey Grove Road and Dovecote Road offer better vehicle access.

Driveways are more common and the roads are wider. Luton-sized vans reach these addresses without difficulty.

For high-street addresses above shops on the main shopping strip between Market Place and the Co-op, access is via a rear service lane in most cases.

We know these lanes. Tell us the full address when you book and we will confirm the access route before arrival.

Some properties near the Lawrence birthplace museum on Victoria Street have restricted parking on certain days due to visitor traffic.

A morning slot before 9am avoids any congestion there.

Giant Van covers Eastwood and every surrounding area within the NG16 postcode and beyond.

Our drivers are based across Nottingham and the East Midlands, which means fast response times across the whole region.

Within Eastwood itself, we serve all residential streets including those in the town centre around the High Street and Market Place, the older terraced streets near the D.H.

Lawrence Birthplace Museum, Bailey Grove, Dovecote Road, Plumptre Street, Church Street, and the streets feeding off the A610 Nottingham Road.

Immediately surrounding Eastwood, we cover Newthorpe (NG16 2), Kimberley (NG16 2), Giltbrook (NG16 2 and NG16 3), Awsworth (NG16 2), and Langley Mill (NG16 4).

Slightly further out, we regularly run jobs between Eastwood and Heanor, Ripley, Ilkeston, and Alfreton in Derbyshire.

These are treated as short regional runs and priced individually. Most come in between £80 and £160.
