What Giant Van Brings to Office Removals
A single-item office removal is exactly what it sounds like. You need one piece of office furniture or equipment moved from one location to another. It could be a reception desk going into a new premises. It could be a heavy filing cabinet being shifted between floors.
It might be an ergonomic office chair purchased online that needs delivering from a seller's address to your workplace.
Most office moving companies focus on full-scale business relocations. They quote for dozens of desks, hundreds of boxes, and IT server rooms. That leaves a large gap in the market for people who just need one item handled professionally.
Giant Van fills that gap. We send an insured, GPS-tracked van with trained movers. We protect your item, handle it carefully, and deliver it to exactly where you need it. There are no hidden fees and no call-out fee sizes.
Single-item removals are common in several situations. A business has bought a second-hand boardroom table from another office. A home worker needs a standing desk moved from a supplier's address. A solicitor firm is upgrading one partner's desk and needs the old one taken away. We handle all of these jobs regularly.
Whatever your situation, we can give you an instant online quote in minutes.
Single-Item Office Removal Pricing Guide
Giant Van prices single-item office removals based on distance, item size, and access requirements. Man and Van rates start from £54 per hour. Here is a straightforward guide to what you can expect to pay:
Same-city, one item, one mover: £45 to £90
Same-city, heavy item (filing cabinet, large desk), two movers: £90 to £150
Cross-town or short regional route, single item: £120 to £200
Long-distance single-item office delivery (100+ miles): from £200
All prices include insurance cover and furniture protection. There are no hidden charges. You pay in full when you book — there's no deposit and nothing to pay on the day. For complex jobs involving dismantling, reassembly, or difficult access, our team will advise on any additional costs before confirming your booking.

Clear Costs for Office Removals
Many businesses automatically search for full office moving companies when they actually need a far simpler service.
Understanding the difference saves you time and money.
Full office removals are designed for relocating an entire business.
The company packs everything, dismantles workstations, disconnects IT, and rebuilds the entire office at the new address.
These jobs typically take a full day or more and cost from £1,000 upwards for even a small team.
They require planning weeks in advance.
Single-item furniture delivery and single-item removals are completely different.
You are booking a van and a team to handle one specific piece.
The job usually takes one to three hours.
You can often book same-day or next-day.
The cost is a fraction of a full removal.
If you have just bought a second-hand desk from another business, or you need to return a faulty chair to a supplier, or you are redistributing one item between your office locations, a Man and Van service is the right choice.
It is fast, affordable, and flexible.
Giant Van operates this service nationally.
You are not limited to one city.
If your item needs to travel across London, from Manchester to Leeds, or from Birmingham to Bristol, we can collect and deliver it.

There is no obligation to book.

Where We Offer Office Removals
Follow these practical tips.
Measure your item's dimensions and check doorframes, lifts, and corridors at both the collection and delivery addresses. A desk that cannot fit in a lift adds time and cost. Tell us upfront and we can plan accordingly.
Full filing cabinets are extremely heavy. Removing the files makes the item safer to move and often reduces the number of movers needed, which lowers the price. Transfer your files to archive boxes and transport them separately.
Many office desks are flat-pack and can be disassembled and reassembled at the new location. This makes transport easier and protects the item from damage. Our team can assist with dismantling and reassembly for an additional charge.
Our driver needs access to the collection address and someone to direct them at the delivery end. If you cannot be present, arrange a key contact at each location.
Make sure doorways, corridors, and the area around where the item will be placed are clear of obstacles before we arrive. This saves time and avoids accidental damage to other furniture.
Monday mornings and Friday afternoons are our busiest times for single office items. If you want a specific slot, book at least 24 hours ahead to avoid disappointment.
A Note From Our Drivers
Every job gets the same standard of care: punctual arrival, proper equipment, and goods-in-transit insurance on every item. Our drivers are reviewed after each booking to maintain consistently high standards across every move.

Moving Guides and Advice
Office Removals for Single Items — FAQs
How much does it cost to move a single office desk?
Moving a single office desk with Giant Van typically costs between £45 and £150, depending on distance, floor access, and whether dismantling is needed. A same-city move with one mover usually falls at the lower end. Use our instant quote tool at giantvan.co.uk for an accurate price based on your specific addresses and item details.
Can you move just one item from an office?
Yes. Giant Van specialises in single-item removals. The shortest booking is just half an hour and no requirement to fill a van. We collect your one item, from a desk to a filing cabinet, and deliver it wherever you need it. Our Man and Van service starts from £54 per hour and covers the whole of the UK.
How quickly can you collect an office item?
In most major UK cities, Giant Van can offer same-day collection for single office items, subject to availability. Next-day slots are available across the majority of the country. Book online for an instant slot or call if you need an urgent same-day collection arranged directly with our team.
Do you cover long-distance single-item office removals?
Yes. Giant Van handles single-item office removals on national routes across the UK. We cover city-to-city and cross-regional deliveries with one booking and one team. Long-distance single-item moves typically cost from £150 to £280 or more depending on distance and access. Get a fixed quote online before you commit to anything.
Is my office furniture insured during the move?
Yes. Every item carried by Giant Van is covered by insurance throughout the collection and delivery process. You do not need to arrange separate cover. Our team also uses furniture blankets, protective straps, and floor protectors on every job to minimise any risk of damage in the first place.
Can you move a heavy filing cabinet up or down stairs?
Yes. Our movers are trained to handle heavy office furniture on stairs safely. We carry the right equipment on every job. If a filing cabinet is full, we recommend emptying it before the move to reduce weight and risk. Let us know the floor levels and access details when you request your quote so we can send the right team.
What is the difference between single item furniture delivery and a full office removal?
Single item furniture delivery means moving one piece of furniture or equipment from one address to another. A full office removal covers an entire business relocation, including all furniture, IT equipment, and packing. Full removals cost from £1,000 upwards and need weeks of planning. A single-item move costs from £48 and can be booked same-day.
Do I need to be present at both ends of the move?
You do not need to be physically present at both addresses, but someone should be available to grant access at collection and to direct our team at delivery. If you cannot be there in person, a colleague or contact with a key can take your place.
Let us know the arrangements in advance so the job runs smoothly and on time.
