A Closer Look at Same Day Delivery
A 1-bedroom home typically holds a bed frame and mattress, a wardrobe, a chest of drawers, a sofa, and kitchen essentials. That is a manageable load for a single van and a two-person crew. Giant Van sends the right vehicle for your volume so nothing is left behind and nothing is wasted.
Same-day removals for a 1-bedroom property cover the full journey: loading at your current address, transit, and unloading at your new home. Our crew brings removal blankets, straps, and trolleys. You do not need to supply any equipment.
We also cover studio flats, bedsits, and single-room moves where the contents fit into a standard Luton van. If you have a loft space or a garden shed to clear alongside the bedroom, tell us when you book. We can quote for the extra volume upfront so there are no surprises on the day.
Specialist items such as a piano, a large American fridge-freezer, or a mounted flat-screen TV may need additional handling time. Our booking app lets you photograph and list every item. Our team reviews your list before confirming the job, so the price you see is the price you pay.
This service runs seven days a week, including bank holidays. Morning slots fill fastest. Book before 10am for the best chance of a same-day afternoon move. Evening completions are available in most UK cities.
Same-Day 1-Bedroom Removal Prices

Work Out Your Moving CostAccess and Delivery Planning for Same Day Delivery
Most 1-bedroom same-day removals take between two and four hours from start to finish.
That includes loading, driving, and unloading. The exact time depends on three things: access at both properties, distance between them, and how much furniture you have.
Ground-floor flats with off-street parking are the fastest.
A two-person crew can load a 1-bedroom flat in around 45 to 60 minutes when furniture is already dismantled and boxes are packed and sealed. Add 30 minutes for every flight of stairs above the ground floor with no lift.
Cross-city moves in London, Manchester, or Birmingham take longer due to traffic.
Our drivers use live route data to find the fastest path. You watch every move on the GPS tracker in your app.
Here is a rough time guide for a 1-bedroom same-day move:
Within the same postcode area: 2 to 3 hours total
Across the same city: 3 to 4 hours total
Between cities under 50 miles: 4 to 5 hours total
Between cities over 50 miles: quoted individually based on route
If your new home is not ready until a specific time, let us know at booking.
We can time the collection so the van arrives at your destination at the right moment. We do not charge waiting fees for delays within 30 minutes of the agreed slot.
How Same-Day Courier Moto Speed for Your 1-Bedroom Move Works
- 01
Tell us about your move
Enter your collection and delivery addresses, select your property size, and list any large items. See a fixed price in under 60 seconds.
- 02
Choose your moving day
Pick a date and time slot that works for you. Add packing materials or extra helpers if you need them.
- 03
Relax while we move you in
A fully insured crew arrives on time, wraps and loads your belongings, and delivers everything to your new home.
Getting Organised for Same Day Delivery
The final figure depends on distance, access conditions, and any add-on services such as packing or furniture dismantling.
This suits smaller 1-bedroom moves where you need one person and a van for a short local job. For a full 1-bedroom property with all furniture, a fixed-price crew booking gives you better value and no clock anxiety.
Dusk bed delivery is available in most cities for orders placed before 2pm.
There are no hidden fuel surcharges or congestion zone fees. What you see at quote is what you pay at completion. Call for an exact figure on your route.

How a Same Day Delivery Booking Comes Together
- 01
A well-prepared move finishes faster and costs less.
These tips are based on what our crews see on every job.
- 02
Pack before the van arrives.
Boxes should be sealed, labelled, and stacked near the front door. Our team can pack for you, but packing the night before saves an hour and reduces your bill.
- 03
Dismantle flat-pack furniture yourself if you can.
Bed frames, wardrobes, and shelving units that break down easily should be taken apart before the crew arrives. If you need us to dismantle them, book the add-on when you quote so the crew brings the right tools.
- 04
Clear a path.
Move rugs, bags, and loose items away from doorways and corridors. A clear path between the rooms and the front door cuts loading time significantly.
- 05
Book parking permits early.
In controlled parking zones, you need a suspension permit from the council. Apply at least 48 hours in advance in most areas. We can handle the application for you, but we need the addresses confirmed the day before.
- 06
Label boxes by room.
Write the destination room on every box. Our crew places each box in the correct room at the new property without asking. You unpack faster and with less confusion.
- 07
Charge your phone.
You will use the GPS tracker, receive driver calls, and sign off digitally at completion. A flat battery causes avoidable delays.
Serving the Whole Country With Same Day Delivery
The answer depends on what you are moving.
Our crew loads all furniture and boxes from your current home, transports them, and unloads at your new address. It is a full relocation service with a dedicated vehicle and crew.
It moves a single item or a small set of items from a retailer, seller, or storage unit to your home. It does not cover packing your existing property or moving multiple loads.
If you are moving your 1-bedroom flat and also expecting a new sofa or dusk bed delivery to arrive at the same destination, we can coordinate both on one booking. This saves you managing two separate delivery windows.
For a single bulky purchase such as a wardrobe or bed, next furniture delivery is the right choice. Our app shows you both options with live pricing so you can choose correctly.
Our team asks you four quick questions and tells you exactly which service fits your situation. There is no upselling and no pressure.
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.

Why Trust Giant Van for Same Day Delivery
Giant Van operates same-day 1-bedroom removal services across the UK. Our largest coverage areas are London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Bristol, Sheffield, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Cardiff, and Liverpool.

Same-Day Removal vs Next-Day Delivery vs Man and Van
A two-person crew loads all furniture and boxes, drives to your new address, and unloads everything. Price: £250 to £400. Best for: full flat or house moves on the same day.
No packing of existing property. Price: from £48. Best for: new sofa, bed, or appliance delivery to your current or new address.
You handle most of the packing and loading. Price: from £54/hr. Best for: light 1-bedroom moves within the same city where you can help load.
Mix and match on one booking. For example, book a full same-day removal for your 1-bedroom flat and add a dusk bed delivery for your new bedroom furniture in the same slot. Message us in the live chat to discuss the right combination for your move.

Does Giant Van offer courier moto-speed delivery for furniture as well as full removals?
Yes. Giant Van offers both full same-day removals and single-item next furniture delivery services. If you are moving a 1-bedroom flat and also need a dusk bed delivery to your new address, we can combine both on one booking. This saves you managing two separate windows on the same day.
What is included in the price for a same-day 1-bedroom removal?
Fuel, congestion zone fees, and ULEZ charges are included. Packing, dismantling, and parking permits are optional add-ons quoted separately.
Do I need to be present during the move?
Yes, someone needs to be present at both the collection and delivery addresses. This can be you or a trusted representative. They must grant access to the property, confirm all items are loaded correctly, and sign off digitally at delivery. Your driver will call 15 minutes before arriving at each address.
Can Giant Van dismantle and reassemble furniture on the same day?
Yes. Furniture dismantling and reassembly is available as an add-on. It costs £20 to £50 per large item depending on complexity. Book this when you get your quote so the crew brings the correct tools. Flat-pack wardrobes, bed frames, and dining tables are the most common items we dismantle and rebuild.
What happens if my new property is not ready when the van arrives?
Giant Van allows up to 30 minutes of free waiting time at the delivery address. Beyond that, a waiting charge applies at the hourly rate. If your new home is delayed significantly, we offer same-day storage from £15 so your belongings are secure while you wait. Contact your driver directly via the app to update the plan.
Is Giant Van's same-day removal service available outside London?
