Moving to London Metropolitan University: What to Expect
London Metropolitan University runs two main campuses. The larger site sits on Holloway Road in Islington, postcode N7. The second campus is in Aldgate, East London, at E1. Both are well connected by tube and bus, but that does not make moving boxes and furniture any easier on your own.
Most students arrive in mid-September for the autumn term. Some postgraduate courses start in January. If you are moving into university-managed halls, you will usually get a set move-in date with a narrow time window. Private landlords near the campuses tend to be more flexible, but city traffic can still make self-moves stressful.
Popular student areas near the Holloway Road campus include Finsbury Park, Archway, Tufnell Park, and Kentish Town. Students at the Aldgate campus often rent in Whitechapel, Stepney Green, Bethnal Green, and Shoreditch. Prices in these areas vary, but most student flats sit within the 1-bed to 3-bed range.
Giant Van operates across all these postcodes every day of the week. We carry full goods-in-transit insurance, so your belongings are protected from collection to drop-off. You can track your driver in real time using our app. If you need help packing boxes before the move, we offer a packing service at an hourly rate on top of the removal. Book online in under two minutes or ring us on .
Student Removal Prices for London Met Areas
We keep our prices straightforward.
There are no hidden fees and no surprises on the day. All jobs include a fully insured van and trained removal staff.
Our Man and Van service starts from £45 per hour.
This suits students moving a small number of items, a single room in halls, or just a carload of belongings from one part of London to another. You only pay for the time we use.
For a one-bedroom flat near Holloway Road or Aldgate, prices typically run between £250 and £400.
This covers loading, transport, and unloading at your new address. A two-bedroom student house move costs between £400 and £650. Three-bedroom shared houses, which are common among second and third-year London Met students, cost between £650 and £900.
Prices depend on distance, floor level, number of items, and access at both addresses.
A ground-floor flat with parking outside will cost less than a third-floor flat with no lift. We give you a fixed quote before we arrive, so you know exactly what you will pay.
Students moving at the start and end of each academic term book quickly.
September, December, and June are our busiest months around London Met campuses. We recommend booking at least two weeks in advance during these periods. For last-minute moves, call us directly on and we will do our best to fit you in on the same day.

4 Tips
We built the service specifically to offer cheap home removals without cutting corners on reliability or care.
If you are coming from Hammersmith, Ealing, Shepherd's Bush, or further west, our drivers know the routes and the traffic patterns. We use GPS tracking on every vehicle, so we can route around hold-ups and arrive on time.
Our packing service is available as an add-on. We bring the boxes, bubble wrap, and tape. You do not need to source anything yourself. This is especially useful if you are juggling coursework deadlines with a move date. We can pack the previous day and move the following morning.
Monday to Thursday moves are usually cheaper than Friday or Saturday. Avoid booking on the first and last day of each university term if you can. These days see the highest demand and the least flexibility on timing. If you need to move on a busy date, book early and confirm your slot. We honour all confirmed bookings and keep you updated via the app right through to arrival.

Halls of Residence and Student Accommodation Near Each Campus
London Metropolitan University operates several student residences.
The university's main halls are located close to the Holloway Road campus in N7.
Students in their first year often live in these managed residences before moving into private rentals for subsequent years.
The Aldgate campus draws students who prefer East London living.
This part of the city has seen significant development in recent years.
Rents are competitive for London, and transport links into the City are excellent.
Whitechapel and Stepney Green are the most popular choices.
Bethnal Green offers more space for the money and is within a 20-minute walk or a single tube stop.
For the Holloway Road campus, the surrounding N7 and N19 postcodes are the most practical.
Finsbury Park N4 is slightly further but offers very good value.
Archway N19 is quieter and a short bus ride from lectures.
Students who prefer more vibrant areas often choose Islington itself or Holloway Road proper.
Giant Van moves students in and out of all of these areas.
We are familiar with the access restrictions in managed halls.
Some university residences require vehicles to arrive within a specific window and to use a designated loading bay.
We work within these rules and arrive at the agreed time.
If you know your halls have special access requirements, mention them when you book so we can plan the move properly from the start.

Term Time Moves and End-of-Year Clearances
01
The London Metropolitan University academic year typically runs from late September through to June.
The autumn term begins in mid-September. The spring term starts in January. The summer term ends in May or June, depending on your course. Each of these transition points generates a wave of student moves across North and East London.
02
End-of-year moves are often the most stressful.
You are returning borrowed library books, sitting final exams, and trying to clear your room before the deadline set by your landlord or halls management. Giant Van can help you clear a room or flat quickly. Our team will load the van efficiently while you handle the admin.
03
If you need items stored between the end of term and the start of your next tenancy, we can advise on self-storage options near your campus.
Storage facilities near Holloway Road and in the Aldgate area are well priced and flexible on duration.
04
Mid-term moves happen too.
Some students change flat between the autumn and spring terms, especially if a house share breaks down or a better room becomes available. We handle these moves just as efficiently as end-of-year ones. Short-notice and same-day bookings are available when you call us directly on . Use the app to get an instant quote any time of day, even on weekends.

Covering Both London Met Campuses and Every Student Postcode
4 Tips
For London Metropolitan University students, this means we are equally comfortable working in N7 Holloway as we are in E1 Aldgate. We do not charge more because one campus is in North London and the other is in East London. The price depends on the distance of your move, not on which part of the city you happen to be in.
We can collect from one address and deliver to another across town in a single job.
North London postcodes including N1, N4, N5, N7, N15, N19, and surrounding areas. East London postcodes including E1, E2, E3, E8, and E14. We also cover South and West London for students moving home at the end of their degree or transferring from another university.
We will tell you the price straight away and confirm whether same-day availability exists for your date. Giant Van is ready to move you whenever you need us, whether that is at the start of freshers week or on the last day of your final year.
