Same Day Movers in Bath

Bath is not a straightforward city to move in.

The UNESCO World Heritage designation protects the built fabric, which means narrow streets, restricted kerb access, and parking rules that catch out inexperienced movers.

Lansdown Road and Sion Hill in BA1 are popular with families upsizing into larger Georgian townhouses.

Both roads have limited double-yellow clearances and residents' parking schemes in effect. Our crew leaders check the suspension of parking bay rules before arrival and, where needed, apply for a temporary parking dispensation through Bath and North East Somerset Council on your behalf.

Widcombe Hill in BA2 is a sharp single-track gradient.

A 7.5-tonne removal lorry cannot navigate it safely. For properties on Widcombe Hill and the surrounding lanes above Bathampton Meadows, we deploy a smaller transit-size vehicle and shuttle loads to a larger vehicle parked safely below on Bathwick Street.

The A36 Bath Road corridor through Limpley Stoke and Bathampton is the main arterial route between Bath and Bristol.

Our drivers use Pulteney Bridge and the A4 Great Pulteney Street junction to cross the River Avon when moving between BA1 north and BA2 south, avoiding the single-track bottleneck on Ferry Lane.

Cleveland Place and London Road (BA1 6) are frequently congested between 08:00 and 09:30 due to school traffic feeding into Bathampton and St Michael's.

We factor this into dispatch timing on weekday mornings and will advise you if your address is likely to be affected.

The Roman Baths car park on York Street is the closest large vehicle loading point for central Bath properties without front access.

Our crew leaders know every restriction and plan your move accordingly.

Giant Van covers all of Bath's residential and commercial areas for same day removals.

The postcodes BA1 and BA2 are fully served, including every neighbourhood within them.

In BA1, we regularly move customers in Lansdown, Larkhall, Lambridge, Bathampton, Batheaston, Lower Swainswick, and the city centre streets around Queen Square and the Royal Crescent.

We also cover the student-heavy streets around Julian Road and Upper Bristol Road, where short-notice moves are common at the end of academic tenancy agreements.

In BA2, we cover Oldfield Park, Twerton, Moorlands, Widcombe, Lyncombe, Southdown, Odd Down, Combe Down, and the rural fringe villages including Peasedown St John and Timsbury.

We also operate same day collections from Bath to the following destinations as part of a long distance service: Bristol (from £150), Swindon (from £200), Cardiff (from £250), and London (from £500).

For moves that begin or end at a student property, we understand the specific requirements of Bath Spa University and University of Bath accommodation.

Many student properties in the BA2 7 and BA2 8 postcodes around Claverton Down have restricted access and shared stairwells. Our crews carry the right equipment to handle these efficiently.

We also collect and deliver to Bath's self-storage facilities, including those on the Lower Bristol Road and on the Avondale Business Park, for customers who need a staged same day solution rather than a single direct move.

If your address falls outside these areas, call and we will confirm availability.
