What Makes Our Packing Services Different
Packing boxes for moving house from a 4 bedroom property need to cover four bedrooms, a kitchen, dining room, living room, and usually an additional study or utility space.
Budget for 30 large boxes for bedding, duvets, pillows, and curtains, 40 medium boxes for books, kitchen items, and clothing, 20 small boxes for fragile ornaments and electronics, and 10 specialist boxes for mirrors, pictures, and televisions.
Giant Van delivers your full 4 bed packing kit to the door 2 to 3 days before the move.

Long-distance 4 bed pack-and-move pricing is available on request.

Work Out Your Moving CostLogistics and Planning for Packing Services
Packing boxes for glasses and fragile kitchen items are one of the most overlooked requirements in a 4 bedroom move.
A typical 4 bed family home has 8 to 12 sets of glasses, multiple sets of crockery, and dozens of fragile ornaments accumulated over years.
Giant Van supplies dish packs with internal cell dividers specifically designed for glasses, mugs, and small plates.
Bubble wrap and packing paper are included in the fragile packing kit.
Our packers individually wrap each glass before boxing.

Packing Services: The Full Package
A 4 bedroom house generates more packing complexity than any other common residential property size.
Four bedrooms means 4 distinct wardrobes, 4 sets of bedding, accumulated clothing across multiple occupants, and a guest room that often doubles as storage.
Add the kitchen, 2 reception rooms, a bathroom, and typically a loft or garage, and the total box count reaches 90 to 120 items.
Packing and moving companies that handle 4 bedroom jobs must have enough crew to pack and load in parallel.
Giant Van sends a one- or two-person crew for 4 bedroom packing jobs: 2 packers working through rooms and 1 person loading and securing in the van as boxes come out.
This parallel approach cuts total job time by 25 to 30 percent compared to sequential packing then loading.

How Packing Services Works
- 01
Packing a 4 bedroom house with a moving company follows a strict room-by-room priority sequence.
- 02
Loft first: this contains seasonal items that are used least and can be sealed earliest.
- 03
Then spare bedrooms, garage, and garden equipment.
- 04
Children's rooms are often the most complex due to fragile toys, artwork, and school materials requiring careful handling.
- 05
The main bedroom and en-suite are packed second-to-last.
- 06
The kitchen is always last.
- 07
Packing and moving companies that do not follow this sequence create confusion at the delivery end, where everything has been mixed across rooms.
- 08
Giant Van's packing teams use colour-coded labelling by room, making the unload at your new 4 bedroom property clean and efficient.
