The Complete Office Removals Service in York
Need Cheap Office Removals York?
York storage needs arise most often during property chain delays and office relocations.
When your completion date and your moving-in date do not align — common in York where the property market moves at its own pace — interim storage bridges the gap.
Giant Van offers secure storage at partner facilities near the YO30 and YO31 postcode areas north of the city.
Items are palletised and stored in ventilated units.
We collect from your current property and deliver to your new address when you are ready.
For smaller items, short-term storage from 24 hours to 4 weeks is available.
Pricing starts from £15 per day for a standard single-bedroom-flat load.

Transit vans fit through the 3.2-metre Micklegate Bar entrance to the walled city.

York Office Removals: Best Days to Book
York DIY Office Move vs Giant Van — Key Differences
York move bookings carry a genuine seasonal pattern.
The tourist season — April through October — brings congestion around the city-centre YO1 postcode that adds 15–30 minutes to every van journey involving the inner ring road.
We build this into move-day schedules and advise clients to book mid-week slots in peak season.
The River Ouse floods regularly in winter — King's Staith and Queen's Staith close when levels rise above a certain point.
Our drivers monitor Environment Agency alerts and have alternative access routes to riverside properties confirmed before every YO1 booking.
Office removals in York with Giant Van handle the city's full commercial landscape — from historic Coney Street premises within the Roman walls to modern Monks Cross retail and office developments 4 miles north of the city centre.
Our YO postcode teams manage the Footstreets loading window, River Ouse flood checks, and Bishopthorpe Road CPZ suspensions as routine.
Interim storage through our York partner facilities in YO30 and YO31 is available for businesses with completion date gaps.
For a fixed York office removal quote, message us in the live chat seven days a week.

How much does a York office removal cost for a small business?

Do you handle office moves in York outside the walled city?
Yes. Giant Van covers office removals across all YO postcodes — not only the walled-city YO1 area. Business parks in YO30, YO31, and YO32 (Monks Cross), the Vanguard estate on Metcalfe Lane, and Poppleton Bar Business Centre in YO26 are all part of our standard York office removal coverage. No Footstreets restrictions apply to these locations.

Can you move a York office to Leeds on the same day?
Yes. York to Leeds is 25 miles via the A64 — a route Giant Van covers regularly. Same-day office removals on this route are available when booked before 9 am. York office removal to Leeds starts from £100 for a small commercial load. Fixed prices include driver, two-person crew, fuel, and goods-in-transit insurance. Message us in the live chat.
Does the River Ouse flooding affect York office removals?
The River Ouse floods multiple times per year, closing King's Staith and Skeldergate — two routes used for YO1 riverfront office access. Giant Van checks the Environment Agency York river gauge on the morning of every move near these roads. If the riverfront is closed, we reroute through Skeldergate Bridge or notify the client for rescheduling.
No cancellation charge for flood closure rescheduling.
