Office & House Moves in Leicester City Centre
Moving office or home in Leicester City Centre takes more than a big van. It takes a crew that knows Granby Street's loading restrictions, the narrow access on St Nicholas Circle, and how to handle a fourth-floor move without a lift in a Highcross Quarter building. Giant Van has completed thousands of removals across LE1 and LE2 since 2010. Our teams work with fixed prices, no hidden extras, and a direct line you can call right now: 020 3129 6180.

Office and Home Removal Services in Leicester City Centre
Giant Van provides a full range of removal services to residents and businesses throughout Leicester City Centre. If you are moving a one-bed flat near New Walk or relocating a 20-desk office from the Cultural Quarter on Rutland Street, we have the right vehicle and the right crew for the job.
Same-Day AvailableTrained Team
Our Man and Van service covers smaller loads and single-item deliveries across the LE1 postcode, starting from £45 for a one-hour slot. House removals begin at £250 for studio and one-bedroom properties and rise to £850 for larger family homes with multiple floors. Office removals are priced from £300, covering moves of up to 10 workstations with IT equipment, furniture, and filing cabinets, up to £600 for larger commercial relocations.
Every booking includes a dedicated removal lead, protective wrapping for furniture, and transit insurance as standard. We do not charge extra for stairs or heavy lifting. All crew members are trained in professional packing techniques and follow strict handling guidelines for fragile items, monitors, and server equipment.
We also offer optional packing and unpacking services for clients who want to hand the entire process over to us. Boxes, tape, and bubble wrap can be supplied at cost. We handle same-day availability or want to plan your move weeks in advance, our scheduling team at will find a slot that works around your business hours or tenancy end date.
Access and Logistics in Leicester City Centre
Leicester City Centre presents specific access challenges that a removal company must understand before arriving on the day.
The pedestrianised zones along Gallowtree Gate and Humberstone Gate mean vehicles cannot park freely outside front doors. Our crews plan routes via Charles Street and Belgrave Gate where loading bays are available, and we carry permits for controlled zone access when required.
The inner ring road at St Nicholas Circle can create bottlenecks during peak hours.
We factor in timed deliveries and route planning as standard, especially for moves involving properties on Vaughan Way or Lee Circle. For offices in the Highcross Leicester development, we coordinate directly with building management to use the dedicated loading area on Shires Lane.
Narrow streets near the Cathedral Quarter, particularly around St Martin's and Cank Street, require our smaller 3.5-tonne Transit for access.
Our fleet includes Luton box vans with tail lifts, Transit vans, and 7.5-tonne lorries, meaning we always send the correct vehicle for your specific access situation rather than defaulting to our largest van.
Parking suspension applications can be submitted on your behalf for residential streets in the LE1 2, LE1 3, LE1 5, and LE1 7 postcode areas.
We recommend requesting this at least five working days before your move date. Our team handles the paperwork and liaises with Leicester City Council's parking services department so you do not need to.

10 Tips
Leicester City Council requires notice for any bay or yellow line suspension in the city centre.
Properties in Highcross Quarter, Meridian House on Albion Street, and similar managed buildings have loading bay booking systems.
This saves crew time during unloading and reduces the chance of heavy boxes ending up in the wrong location.
Show the photos to our crew on arrival so cables are bundled correctly for reassembly.
This avoids delays caused by competing floor traffic.
Crew performance stays consistent when there is a brew waiting at the other end.
Any residual water will damage cardboard boxes and wooden flooring during transit.
This avoids access delays at the new property.
Leicester's postal districts can confuse automated address validators.
This prevents disputed final bills from your energy supplier.

Transit goods insurance is included as standard on every booking, covering your possessions for their replacement value during loading, transit, and unloading.

Why Leicester Residents and Businesses Choose Giant Van
Giant Van has been completing removals in Leicester since 2010. In that time, we have built a reputation based on punctuality, transparent pricing, and crews who treat your property with genuine care. We do not subcontract work to third parties. Every crew member is directly employed by Giant Van, trained in-house, and vetted with a DBS check before their first job.
Our fixed-price model sets us apart from competitors who quote low and adjust on the day. When we give you a price over the phone, that is the price on your invoice. If you have a straightforward one-bedroom flat on New Walk or a complex three-floor Victorian terrace on London Road, the quote you receive accounts for both the property and any access complexity.
We are a fully insured removal company with public liability insurance of £5 million and goods-in-transit insurance as standard on every booking. We carry CHAS accreditation for commercial work, which means many of Leicester's property management companies specify Giant Van for their tenant relocations.
Our fleet is maintained to current Euro 6 emissions standards, which matters in the Leicester Clean Air Zone. Our vehicles are fully compliant, meaning there are no additional daily charges passed to you for operating within the city centre boundary. We are also committed to responsible waste disposal for any items you want to declutter during your move, with connections to Leicester's licensed household waste disposal partners at Dysart Way Recycling Centre on Dysart Way in LE4.

Best Times to Move in Leicester City Centre
5 Tips
Understanding when the city is quietest and when the roads are most manageable makes a practical difference to how smoothly your moving day goes.
Traffic around the A594 Vaughan Way and the A47 St Nicholas Circle is lighter than on Thursdays and Fridays. If your tenancy or lease end date falls on a Friday, we recommend beginning loading by 7am to clear the city centre before the morning rush reaches peak density.
The week before and after Leicester University's September intake is the busiest period for residential moves in LE1 and LE2, so booking at least three weeks in advance is strongly advised between mid-August and early October.
This translates to greater crew availability, more flexible scheduling, and occasionally shorter notice bookings for our Man and Van service. Corporate office relocations are best scheduled in January, July, or August when business disruption to staff is lower.
Giant Van operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for commercial clients. Call to discuss out-of-hours rates for your Leicester office relocation.
Giant Van vs Other Leicester Removal Companies
4 Tips
Giant Van employs all crews directly. You speak to the same team from quote to completion.
Many companies quote a low base rate and apply additional charges for stairs, long carries, parking delays, or weekend slots. Giant Van quotes a fixed price that accounts for your specific property, access situation, and move complexity before you commit.
Some smaller operators carry only third-party vehicle insurance with no goods-in-transit cover. Giant Van provides £5 million public liability insurance and full goods-in-transit cover on every booking, at no extra charge.
Knowing that Granby Street has a loading bay near the junction with Belvoir Street, or that the NCP car park entrance on Jubilee Square causes temporary road closure on event days at De Montfort Hall, is the kind of operational detail that prevents delays on moving day. Giant Van's crews have this knowledge built in from years of working within LE1 and LE2.
Giant Van's Leicester City Centre removal service covers every type of property and every type of move.
From a student flat clearance on Welford Road to a full office relocation from a managed building on Rutland Street, our crews arrive prepared, work efficiently, and leave your new space in the order you need it.
Our direct contact number is 020 3129 6180.
Lines are open Monday to Saturday from 7am to 8pm, and Sunday from 8am to 6pm.
For out-of-hours commercial enquiries, use the online booking form and a member of the team will respond within four hours.
Leicester City Centre is a compact, high-density area where every removal requires specific local knowledge.
Giant Van brings over 15 years of experience working within LE1 and its surrounding districts.
We know the streets, the access points, the permit systems, and the building management contacts that make the difference between a smooth move and a stressful one.
If you are a business leaving a serviced office in the Cultural Quarter or a family downsizing from a Victorian terrace near Victoria Park, Giant Van has the vehicle, the crew, and the process to handle your move professionally from first call to final placement.

Office & House Moves in Leicester City Centre — FAQs
How much does a house removal in Leicester City Centre cost?
House removal prices in Leicester City Centre start at £250 for a studio or one-bedroom property and reach £850 for larger homes. The exact cost depends on property size, floor access, the volume of items being moved, and the distance between collection and delivery addresses. Call for a fixed written quote based on your specific circumstances.
Do you offer same-day removals in Leicester LE1?
Giant Van can accommodate same-day Man and Van bookings in LE1 subject to crew availability. For same-day requests, call before 9am. Larger house and office removals require at least 48 hours' notice to arrange the correct crew size, vehicle, and any necessary parking permits for Leicester City Centre streets.
Can you move office furniture from a building on Rutland Street or Charles Street?
Yes. Giant Van regularly moves office furniture and equipment from managed buildings throughout Leicester City Centre, including Rutland Street, Charles Street, and Albion Street. We coordinate with building management for loading bay access and out-of-hours entry codes. Office removals start from £300 and are priced based on your floor level, item count, and destination.
Is parking included or do I need to arrange it myself?
Giant Van can apply for parking suspensions on your behalf for Leicester City Centre streets where yellow lines or bay restrictions apply. We submit applications to Leicester City Council's parking services team at least five working days before your move date. The cost of the suspension permit is passed on at cost. We handle all paperwork and council communication on your behalf.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Every Giant Van removal includes goods-in-transit insurance and £5 million public liability cover as standard. Your belongings are insured for their replacement value from the moment our crew begins loading to the point everything is placed in your new property. High-value or fragile items should be declared at the time of booking to ensure appropriate cover is noted.
Do you charge extra for moves within the Leicester Clean Air Zone?
No. All Giant Van vehicles are compliant with the Leicester Clean Air Zone Euro 6 emission standards. There are no Clean Air Zone surcharges added to your removal invoice for collection or delivery addresses within the zone boundary. The price you are quoted covers the full move, including any journeys through controlled emission areas in and around the city centre.
What is the best time of year to book a Leicester City Centre removal?
January is the quietest month for removals in Leicester, offering maximum crew availability and flexible scheduling. Avoid mid-August to early October when university intake drives high residential demand in LE1 and LE2. For office moves, July and August offer lower business disruption. For all peak-period bookings, secure your date at least three weeks in advance by calling .
Can Giant Van move a piano or other specialist items in Leicester City Centre?
Yes. Giant Van handles specialist items including upright and grand pianos, heavy safes, large artwork, and antique furniture. These items are quoted separately from your main removal due to the specialist equipment and additional crew required. Pianos on upper floors of properties near the Cultural Quarter or Highcross Quarter are assessed on a case-by-case basis. Call for a specialist item quote.
