Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Giant Van has been moving people across Taunton and the surrounding Somerset area for years. We handle a man with a van in Taunton for a single sofa or a full flat clearance, we handle every job the same way: on time, fully insured, and without fuss.
Our man and van Taunton service starts from £45. That covers a single-item move within the town, such as a chest of drawers from Holway Road to a new place near the Castle. Larger jobs, like clearing a two-bedroom flat in Priorswood and loading a full van for a run to the storage depot off Toneway, are priced from £120 to £300 depending on volume and travel time.
Every booking includes a professional driver, a clean and maintained van, and blanket wrapping for fragile items. There are no hidden charges for stairs, long carries, or waiting time up to 15 minutes. You pay the quoted price and nothing more.
We also carry out long-distance moves from Taunton. If you are heading to Bristol, London, or anywhere else in the UK, our long-distance rates start from £500. Student removals from the University of Exeter satellite campus on Wellington Road start from £150 and include help packing boxes if needed.
Book through our app, on the website, or by calling . You will have a confirmed time slot and a named driver within minutes of booking. GPS tracking lets you follow your driver to the door.
Taunton has a mix of Victorian terraced streets, modern estates, and a busy town centre ring road.
Our drivers know exactly what to expect before they arrive.
The town centre one-way system around North Street, East Street, and Corporation Street means access from certain directions is restricted.
Loading bays on Fore Street and Bath Place are time-limited between 08:00 and 18:00 Monday to Saturday. Our team plans arrival times around these restrictions so you are not waiting for us to circle the block.
Roman Road in Rowbarton and Staplegrove Road leading up to the older residential terraces have parked vehicles on both sides for most of the day.
Our drivers use the smaller long-wheelbase vans for these roads rather than the larger Luton box vans. If your property is on a particularly narrow street, let us know when you book and we will confirm the right vehicle size.
Priorswood and Halcon in the east of Taunton were built in the 1940s and 1950s with wider estate roads.
Access is generally straightforward. Properties near Hankridge Farm Retail Park on Hankridge Way have good road width but the retail park roads themselves are private, so we collect and deliver at the perimeter where permitted.
The Taunton ring road, the A3259 that loops from Creech Castle in the north to Priorswood in the east, is the fastest route between the north and east sides of town.
Our drivers use it to avoid the town centre queues on school run times, typically 08:00 to 09:15 and 15:00 to 16:30.
Properties near the River Tone in the St James area and around French Weir can have access from Staplegrove Road or via Silk Mills Road depending on which bank.

Get your exact priceThese five steps will save you time and money on the day.
Taunton Borough Council permits are managed through Somerset Council. If you live on a permit-only street in St James or Rowbarton, apply for a temporary suspension at least five working days before your move. Call Somerset Council on 0300 123 2224 to request a bay.
Many of the older Victorian terraces on Eastgate Road and around the Lyngford area have internal doors that are 26 to 28 inches wide rather than the modern standard of 32 inches. A standard three-seater sofa will not pass through a 26-inch gap. Our team can advise on disassembly but cannot do it on the day without prior notice.
A half-filled box collapses under weight in the van. Supermarkets on Hankridge Way and Priorswood Road often have spare boxes available free of charge the evening before your move. Fill each box to the top and seal it with at least two strips of tape.
When you label a box "Kitchen" rather than listing every item, the driver knows exactly where it goes in the new property. This saves 20 to 30 minutes on a typical Taunton move.
TA1 covers the town centre and older residential areas. TA2 includes Priorswood, Halcon, and parts of Staplegrove. TA3 covers the rural south and villages like Ruishton. TA4 reaches Bishops Lydeard and Minehead direction. The wrong postcode adds unnecessary time to your quote calculation.

For larger loads, our Luton box vans with tail lift are available on request, suitable for moves from the larger detached properties in the Cheddon Road and Norton Fitzwarren areas.
Full goods-in-transit insurance is included on every booking up to £10,000 per load.

“Best removal service I've used”
Sarah, London
Here is exactly how it works from start to finish.
Visit the Giant Van website or open the app. Enter your collection address in Taunton, your delivery address, the date and time you need, and a brief description of what is being moved. The system generates a fixed price immediately. No personal details are required at this stage.
If the quote works for you, enter your name, contact number, and email address. Choose your payment method. We accept all major credit and debit cards, PayPal, and bank transfer for larger jobs. Your booking is confirmed instantly by email and SMS.
Around 60 minutes before your collection time, you receive a notification with your driver's name, vehicle registration, and a live GPS tracking link. You can share this link with anyone who needs to let the driver in.
Our driver will greet you, carry out a quick walkthrough of the items, and begin loading. Furniture is wrapped in moving blankets before it enters the van. Fragile items are placed in the cab if they require extra care.
Our man and van service covers the full Taunton urban area and the surrounding villages within a 15-mile radius.
Here is where we operate as standard with no additional fuel surcharge.
In the town itself we cover all TA1 postcodes including the town centre, Rowbarton, Staplegrove, St James, Lyngford, and Holway.
We also cover TA2 across Priorswood, Halcon, Galmington, and Cheddon Fitzpaine.
To the north we reach Bishop's Hull, Norton Fitzwarren, Cotford St Luke, and Bishops Lydeard in the TA4 area.
To the east we cover Creech St Michael, Ruishton, and North Curry under TA3 postcodes.
To the south and west we cover Trull, Corfe, and Thorn St Margaret.
These villages are predominantly along the B3170 and B3187 road corridors and our drivers know both routes well.
We also cover Wellington, approximately 8 miles south-west on the A38, and Bridgwater, 12 miles north on the M5 corridor.
Moves between Taunton and Bridgwater are quoted as inter-town jobs starting from £90.
For destinations further afield, we cover moves from Taunton to Exeter (45 miles), Bristol (45 miles), Bath (40 miles), and London (150 miles).
Long-distance rates start from £500 and include a second man for moves of three bedrooms or more.

We will confirm within seconds and give you a same-day quote.
Booked online in under a minute and the crew turned up right on time. Everything was wrapped carefully and nothing was damaged. Genuinely the easiest move I've had.
The quote I got online was exactly what I paid. No hidden fees, no extra charges on the day. The two-man crew were professional, fast, and really friendly.
Our original movers cancelled last minute. Giant Van had a crew available the same day. They handled a full 2-bed flat and had us settled in by evening.
We know Taunton 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 Taunton depends on it.
Taunton Operations, Giant Van Driver
There are a number of man with van operators in Taunton. Here is what makes Giant Van different from a sole trader with a hired Luton.
We are fully insured. Every driver carries public liability insurance and goods-in-transit cover as a condition of working with us. A sole trader advertising cheap van hire in Taunton on a classified site may not carry either. If anything is damaged during your move, our insurance pays out. There is no dispute, no delay.
Our pricing is fixed. We do not charge by the hour in the way that many cheap van hire Taunton operators do. An hourly rate sounds cheap until the job takes longer than expected and the meter keeps running. Our flat fee means you know the total cost before the driver leaves the depot.
We are available seven days a week, including Sundays and bank holidays. Taunton's Glastonbury and Somerset County Show traffic, which regularly builds on the A358 and A361 approach roads in summer, affects journey times. Our drivers plan routes around these events in advance so your move is not delayed by festival traffic.
Our app gives you live GPS tracking from booking to completion. You can watch your driver travel from our depot to your door. This removes the anxiety of waiting and guessing, particularly for same-day moves where every minute counts.
We are a registered business with a company number, a fixed business address, and a real customer service team. Call Monday to Sunday and you will speak to a person, not an answerphone.

UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
Here is what our booking data and local knowledge tell us about the best slots.
Roads are clear of school run traffic by 09:20 and the town centre loading bays on East Street and Fore Street are free from double-parked delivery vehicles by 10:00. Drivers can load and move faster, which keeps your cost down on larger jobs.
People moving before the weekend compete with retail delivery traffic on Hankridge Way and the regular Friday market traffic near the town centre on Fore Street. If you can move on a Friday, book a morning slot before 12:00.
Slots book up three to five days ahead during spring and summer, particularly in September when student moves from the Taunton sixth form colleges and university campus properties happen all at once. Book early if you need a Saturday.
Our drivers reroute automatically but allow an extra 15 minutes for collection if your property is within half a mile of Vivary Park during event dates.
Same-day slots are nearly always available. Prices do not change by season, but availability is highest in January and February. If your move date is flexible, midweek in January gives you the widest choice of times.
Here is an honest comparison of the two options before you decide.
On top of that you pay for fuel, which for a Transit doing 20 mpg on a day's town driving can add £15 to £30. You also need a credit card deposit, usually £500 to £1,000, held for up to 10 working days.
If you are moving a washing machine, a fridge, or a large sofa, you need a second person to help. If anything is damaged during loading, the hire company's damage waiver may not cover items you drop. Their cover protects the vehicle, not your belongings.
You do not lift a single box unless you want to. The driver handles the loading, securing, and unloading. There is no deposit, no fuel calculation, and no damage liability on your part.
For that difference you get professional loading, insurance protection, and zero physical effort.
Giant Van provides man and van services across Taunton and Somerset at transparent fixed prices.
If you are moving a single item from Rowbarton or clearing a full house in Priorswood, you get a professional driver, a clean van, and full insurance on every job.
Call 020 3129 6180 or book online in under three minutes.
Our man with a van Taunton service is available every day of the year.
Same-day bookings are accepted before 14:00 in most cases.
For planned moves, book up to 90 days ahead and lock in your time slot today.
