Homes We Pack in Brighton
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
How We Handle Packing Services in Brighton
Brighton is one of the UK's most active property markets.
Streets like Elm Grove, Lewes Road, and Western Road see constant movement.
People move in from London, relocate along the coast, and shift between the city's eclectic mix of Victorian terraces, seafront flats, and modern new-builds.
Professional packing services in Brighton are not a luxury.
They are the difference between a smooth move and a stressful one.
Giant Van offers two core packing options for Brighton residents.
Full packing covers every room in your home.
Our trained team wraps, boxes, labels, and stacks everything ready for the van.
Partial packing covers only the rooms or item types you choose.
Many Brighton customers ask us to handle fragile items, antiques from the North Laine market, or specialist equipment while they pack everything else themselves.
Every job is fully insured.
We use double-walled cardboard boxes, acid-free tissue, heavy-duty bubble wrap, and specialist dish packs.
Nothing is thrown into a box without being wrapped first.
Labels go on every box with a room name and a brief contents list.
That means unpacking at your new address in BN1, BN2, or BN3 is straightforward and fast.
Packing services start from £150 for a studio or one-bedroom flat.
A three-bedroom house in areas like Hanover or Seven Dials typically ranges between £300 and £500 depending on the volume of contents and fragile items.

Reaching Your Brighton Property for Packing Services
Brighton's streets were not designed for removal vans.
That is a fact any local will confirm. Our teams know the city well and plan routes and parking in advance to avoid costly delays on moving day.
In central Brighton, streets like Trafalgar Street (BN1 4ER) and Upper Gardner Street have narrow lanes and tight corners.
Double yellow lines run the length of most roads near North Laine. We apply for temporary parking suspensions on your behalf when needed, a process that takes three to five working days with Brighton and Hove City Council.
If you are moving out of a tall Victorian terrace in Hanover, staircase access can be challenging.
Our teams carry specialist dollies and moving straps designed for exactly those conditions.
The seafront area around Marine Parade (BN2 1TL) and Kemp Town brings its own challenges.
Basement flats in this area often have low ceilings and steep external steps. We send a pre-move representative to assess any property with unusual access. There is no charge for that visit.
In Preston Park (BN1 6HQ) and Patcham, roads are generally wider and parking is more available.
Hove, particularly the grid streets around Holland Road and Sackville Road (BN3 4EN), is more straightforward still. We factor access conditions into every quote, so the price you see is the price you pay. No surprises on the day.
Our GPS-tracked vans operate across all Brighton postcodes.
You can follow your vehicle's progress in real time through the Giant Van app.

Work Out Your Moving CostOrganisation Tips for Brighton Packing Services
The spare bedroom or dining room can be packed weeks ahead of moving day. Leave the kitchen and bathroom until last.
A box of books is often 20kg before it is even half full. Use small boxes for heavy items. Use large boxes only for lightweight things like duvets and cushions.
Newspaper can stain ceramics. Use plain white paper or bubble wrap. Stand plates upright in the box rather than stacking them flat. They are far less likely to break.
When boxes are stacked in the van, you can only see the sides. Write the room name and three to five words describing the contents. "Kitchen - mugs, coffee, kettle" is more useful than "Kitchen misc."
The back of your TV unit and your Wi-Fi setup are easy to forget. A quick photo takes seconds and saves hours later.
Towels, jumpers, and cushions protect fragile items just as well as bubble wrap. Pack them around glassware and ornaments rather than leaving them in a separate box.
Many Brighton customers self-pack general household goods and leave antiques, art pieces, and kitchenware to us. This keeps costs down while protecting the items that matter most.

What You Get With Packing Services in Brighton
When you book a full packing service with Giant Van in Brighton, you get everything you need from start to finish.
There are no hidden charges for materials or extra team members.
All packing materials are included.
We arrive with double-walled cardboard boxes in three sizes, specialist dish packs with internal dividers, heavy-duty bubble wrap on rolls, acid-free tissue paper for artwork and china, wardrobe boxes with hanging rails for clothes, mattress covers and sofa protectors, and heavy-duty tape with dispensers.
Our packing team will work through your property room by room.
Each item is wrapped, placed in an appropriate box, and the box is sealed and labelled.
Wardrobes are packed using hanging boxes so clothes arrive on hangers, crease-free.
Flat-screen TVs go into specialist TV boxes or custom-built crates for large screens.
Artwork is wrapped in tissue and cardboard layers before going into picture boxes.
At the end of the packing service, all boxes are stacked neatly by room, ready for loading.
If we are also doing the removal, boxes go straight onto the van in the correct order so the items you need first are the last ones loaded.
After delivery, we offer an unpacking service too.
Our team will open every box, remove wrapping, and place items in the rooms you specify.
We take all cardboard and packing materials away.
There is nothing for you to dispose of.
The full service, packing and unpacking combined, is available for any move from a studio flat in Brighton BN1 to a large detached property in Saltdean or Rottingdean.

Giant Van covers all Brighton and Hove postcodes for packing services.
We also serve the wider surrounding area.
In central Brighton, we regularly pack properties in North Laine (BN1 4), Kemptown (BN2 1), and the Lanes area (BN1 1).
These are popular postcodes for young professionals and families moving into or out of the city. Victorian conversion flats and period houses make up most of our work here.
In east Brighton, we cover Hanover (BN2 9), Elm Grove (BN2 3), and Whitehawk (BN2 5).

In north Brighton, Preston Park (BN1 6), Patcham (BN1 8), and Hollingbury (BN1 7) are well-served routes for our teams.
These areas have more detached and semi-detached properties, meaning larger jobs and more contents to pack.

The grid streets between Church Road and Portland Road are among our busiest areas. We also serve Portslade (BN41), Aldrington, and Southwick.
Beyond the city, we cover Saltdean (BN2 8), Rottingdean (BN2 7), Peacehaven (BN10), Shoreham-by-Sea (BN43), and Lancing (BN15).

Full Packing vs Partial Packing: Which Do You Need?
Here is a straightforward comparison.
