Why Students Choose Giant Van for Surrey Removals
Student moves have their own pressures. Checkout deadlines are strict. Parking on campus is tight. Stairs in Victorian terraces in Guildford town centre are steep. Giant Van understands all of that, and we plan around it.
Fully InsuredGPS TrackedFixed Price
We operate fully insured vans of every size, from compact transit vans to large Luton vehicles. Our drivers know the GU2 postcode well. They know where to pull in near Stag Hill campus, and they know the back roads around Manor Park and Hazel Farm. That local knowledge saves you time and stress on move day.
Every booking comes with GPS-tracked vehicles so you know exactly when we arrive. Our app lets you manage your booking, track your driver, and pay securely. There are no hidden fees and no surprise surcharges for stairs or heavy items. The price you see in your instant quote is the price you pay.
We cover all schools in Surrey and the surrounding area. If you are finishing your first year in university halls or leaving a shared house in Onslow Village after graduation, we handle the job professionally. Man and Van service starts from just £45 per hour. Most student flat moves complete within two to three hours.
University of Surrey Campus: What to Know Before You Move
The University of Surrey sits on Stag Hill in Guildford, just a ten-minute walk from the town centre.
The main campus covers roughly 150 acres and includes a mix of purpose-built student accommodation and academic buildings. The university has around 15,000 students, so move-in and move-out periods in September and June are extremely busy.
On-campus accommodation includes Stag Hill Court, Cathedral Court, and Manor Park.
Manor Park is a short walk from the main campus and particularly popular with second and third-year students. Parking restrictions on campus are enforced, especially during peak periods. You will typically need a parking permit or a time-limited loading bay slot arranged through the university's estate services team.
Off-campus, students tend to live in Guildford town, Onslow Village, Burpham, and Merrow.
These areas are within easy reach of the GU2 postcode. Some students also commute from Woking, Farnham, or Aldershot, meaning removals routes fan out across the county.
If you are moving into or out of university-managed accommodation, check your contract for the exact checkout time.
Most require rooms to be cleared by 10am on departure day. Giant Van offers early morning slots to make that deadline easily. Book online the night before and we can have a driver with you before 8am.

6 Tips

Packing Tips for Student Moves in Surrey
01
Good packing saves time and protects your belongings.
Here is practical advice based on hundreds of student moves we have completed across Guildford and Surrey.
02
Start packing at least three days before move day.
Most students underestimate how long it takes to sort, wrap, and box up a room. Give yourself time to do it properly.
03
Use sturdy boxes, not supermarket bags.
Bags split and make loading awkward. We sell double-walled cardboard boxes that stack cleanly in the van. Order them through our website before your move.
04
Label every box with its contents and the room it belongs to.
This speeds up unloading dramatically. Write on the side of the box, not the top, so you can read labels when boxes are stacked.
05
Wrap fragile items in clothes or towels before using bubble wrap.
It saves on materials and adds an extra layer of protection. Electronics should always be boxed separately with padding on all sides.

End of Tenancy Moves: Getting Your Deposit Back
Losing part of your deposit because of a rushed move-out is one of the most frustrating things that can happen to a student. Giant Van helps you avoid that by giving you the time and space to leave your property in good condition.
When you book a van with us for your end-of-tenancy move, plan to use the time while we are loading to do a final clean of the property. Most Guildford landlords and letting agents expect a professional standard of cleanliness. Dirty ovens, grubby bathrooms, and uncleaned floors are the most common reasons for deposit deductions.
Take timestamped photos of every room before you leave. Photograph walls, floors, skirting boards, and fixtures. If there is any dispute about the condition of the property, these photos are your evidence.
Return all keys at the agreed time. Most student tenancies in GU2 and surrounding postcodes require keys back by midday. Our early morning slots make that straightforward.
Read your tenancy agreement carefully before move day. Check if you are responsible for any specific cleaning tasks, such as professional carpet cleaning or window cleaning. Some landlords require receipts from professional cleaners.
If you need a storage solution while between tenancies, Giant Van can collect your belongings and hold them securely for a fixed daily rate. This is useful for students whose new tenancy starts a few days after their old one ends.
