Giant Van provides professional house movers in Nottingham every Saturday and Sunday, covering every NG postcode from the city centre to the outlying suburbs.
If you are shifting a one-bed flat near Hockley or a four-bedroom semi in West Bridgford, our crews arrive on time, handle your belongings with care, and get you unloaded before dark. Message us in the live chat to check availability and get a fixed quote today.

Weekend Moves We Cover in Nottingham
Understanding the property mix helps us plan the right crew size, van, and equipment for your move.
Tailored Weekend Removals for Nottingham
Giant Van runs a full range of weekend removal services across Nottingham and the surrounding areas. Our most popular option is a full house move, where a trained crew handles packing, loading, transit, and unloading at your new address.
Prices for house removals start at £250 and reach up to £850 depending on the volume of furniture, the number of floors, and how far we are travelling.
For smaller jobs, our man and van service starts at £54 per hour and caps at £300 for longer single-day moves. This suits students moving out of shared houses near the University of Nottingham on University Boulevard, or young professionals relocating between city centre apartments off Canal Street or Fletcher Gate.
Office removals are also available at weekends, priced between £300 and £600. Many Nottingham businesses based in the Creative Quarter around Goosegate and Heathcoat Street use weekend slots to avoid disrupting their Monday to Friday operations.
All services include a fully insured vehicle, experienced crew members, and blanket wrapping for furniture. Stairs, tricky parking on narrow streets like Clarendon Street in Sherwood, and items that need careful handling are all priced into the quote, not billed as hidden extras. What we quote is what you pay.
Nottingham Weekend Removals: Route and Access
Nottingham's road layout presents real challenges on moving day, and experience matters.
Our drivers know which routes to take and when. The city centre around Old Market Square and the surrounding NG1 streets can get congested even on weekends, particularly on Saturday mornings when the Victoria Centre car park on Milton Street fills up quickly.
In Lace Market and the Hockley area, many streets are cobbled or narrow.
Loading bays are limited, and residents on streets like Broadway and High Pavement have strict parking restrictions. Our crews arrive early, scout the drop zone, and position the vehicle to minimise carry distance.
In areas like The Meadows (NG2), Sneinton (NG2), and St Ann's (NG3), terraced houses with no off-road parking are the norm.
We carry trolleys and furniture sliders as standard, which reduces strain and protects wooden floors in older Victorian properties.
Further out, suburbs like Arnold (NG5), Carlton (NG4), and Beeston (NG9) typically offer easier access.
However, Beeston's town centre around Broadgate can fill up during the Saturday market, so we plan routes via Middle Street or Chilwell Road where needed.
We always check for road closures and Nottingham City Council parking restrictions before each job.
If you need us to arrange a temporary suspension notice for a no-parking zone outside your property, we can advise on this during booking.
Weekend Removal Prices for Nottingham
Our pricing covers three main service types. Man and van hire runs from £48 to £300 and suits single-room moves, student relocations, and small flat clearances. Full house removals are priced between £250 and £850 based on property size, floor level, and distance. Office removals run from £300 to £600 for weekend business moves.
All prices are fixed and confirmed in writing before your booking is confirmed. Message us in the live chat for a quote specific to your Nottingham address and moving date.
All prices include a fully insured crew, van, and moving blankets. Packing services available as add-ons.
Work Out Your Moving CostAdvice Before Your Nottingham Weekend Removals
Weekend slots in Nottingham fill fast, especially between April and September when most tenancy agreements end. If you are moving out of a student property near Derby Road or Lenton, aim to book at least three weeks in advance.
Contact Nottingham City Council or the relevant borough council (Gedling, Broxtowe, or Rushcliffe) to find out we handle a parking suspension. Applications usually take five working days.
Items from IKEA or similar that came flat-packed are much quicker to move in pieces. Keep all fixings in a labelled bag taped to the largest panel.
Include your phone charger, kettle, two mugs, tea bags, milk, and a change of clothes. Do not pack this bag in the removal lorry. Keep it with you.
Write the destination room on the top and side of each box. This saves the crew from asking where everything goes and speeds up unloading significantly.
A wet fridge creates a slip hazard in the van and can damage other items. This is especially important in warmer months.
Take photos of gas and electricity meters at your old property in Wollaton, Clifton, or wherever you are leaving, and at your new address. This protects you from billing disputes with your energy supplier.

Weekend Removals Peace of Mind in Nottingham
When you book a weekend removal with Giant Van in Nottingham, several things come as standard in every package.
You get a GPS-tracked, fully insured removal vehicle driven by a licensed and experienced driver.
Our vehicles range from compact vans to large Luton lorries, and we select the right size for your job during the booking process.
Every crew member is trained in furniture handling and safe lifting techniques.
We carry moving blankets to protect sofas, dining tables, wardrobes, and white goods during transit.
If a piece of furniture will not fit through a doorway or down a staircase without disassembly, our crew handles that on the day.
We bring trolleys, furniture dollies, and floor protectors to every job.
These are particularly useful in Nottingham's older housing stock, where staircases on streets like Mapperley Road in Mapperley or Musters Road in West Bridgford are narrow and steep.
Basic packing materials (such as wardrobe boxes and mattress covers) are available to add on during booking.
Full packing services, where our team packs your entire property into boxes the morning of the move, can also be arranged for an additional charge.
Your quote covers travel to your collection address, loading, transit, and unloading.
There are no fuel surcharges, no weekend premium fees, and no charge for waiting if you are a few minutes behind schedule.

A Note From Our Nottingham Team
We know Nottingham well. Our drivers navigate the local streets daily, handling everything from narrow terraced house access to large detached properties. Every move is treated with care because our reputation in Nottingham depends on it.
Giant Van operations
Proof in Every Nottingham Weekend Removals Job
Nottingham removals is a competitive market. There are dozens of man and van operators and several larger removal companies operating across the NG postcode area. What makes Giant Van different comes down to a few practical points.
First, we operate exclusively on weekends. This is not a side service bolted onto a weekday business. Every driver, every vehicle, and every crew member on our books is dedicated to weekend moves. That focus means better availability, more reliable timekeeping, and a team that genuinely understands the rhythm of Saturday and Sunday moves.
Second, we offer fixed pricing. When you receive a quote from Giant Van, that is the number on your invoice at the end of the day. We do not apply an hourly rate that creeps up if the job takes longer than expected. You budget accurately and there are no surprises.
Third, our crews have specific experience with Nottingham's housing stock. Edwardian terrace houses in Sherwood with their long hallways and cellar steps, converted warehouse apartments off Castle Wharf near the Canal Museum, purpose-built blocks in Clifton with narrow lift doors: we have handled them all and know what to prepare.
Fourth, we are reachable on moving day. Our live chat connects you directly to someone who can answer questions, adjust your crew's route, or escalate any issue on the spot. You are never dealing with a call centre when you are standing outside your new front door.

When Is the Best Time to Move?
UK moving demand follows seasonal patterns. Off-peak months typically offer lower prices and more crew availability.
How to Choose Your Nottingham Weekend Removals Date
Knowing when demand peaks helps you secure your preferred date at the right price.
This coincides with the end of University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University academic years, when thousands of students vacate shared houses across Lenton, Dunkirk, and Beeston. If you are moving during this period, book as early as possible.
The last Friday before a bank holiday often sees a spike in requests as people try to use the long weekend to move. Availability drops sharply in the 72 hours before these dates.
If you have flexibility on your move date, these months offer more available slots, shorter booking lead times, and in some cases reduced rates on man and van jobs.
If your move does not need to be on a Saturday specifically, booking a Sunday often gives you a wider choice of start times and a more relaxed crew schedule with fewer back-to-back jobs.
Late starts after 12 noon carry more risk of running into the evening, particularly for larger properties in areas like Wollaton or West Bridgford where parking access changes at 4pm.
Man and Van vs Full Removal Service: Which Do You Need?
If you have more than one bedroom's worth of furniture, garden items, a fridge-freezer, a washing machine, or wardrobe units, book the full service.
Giant Van has completed weekend removals across Nottingham for residential customers, students, and small businesses.
Our crews work regularly on streets including Mansfield Road (NG1 to NG5), Derby Road through Lenton and Dunkirk, Trent Boulevard in West Bridgford, and Queens Drive in Beeston.
We carry public liability insurance and goods-in-transit cover on every job.
Our vehicles are cleaned and checked before each weekend to ensure they arrive in the condition you expect.
For nottingham removals that run without stress, we are the team most residents in the city call first.
If you are planning a move and want to confirm a weekend slot before the date disappears, the best step is a direct a message in the live chat.
We take bookings seven days a week and can usually give you a quote within minutes if you have your addresses and a rough idea of what you are moving.
For larger properties in Nottingham, we recommend requesting an on-site survey, which one of our local team members can carry out at a convenient time before your moving date.

Moving Guides and Advice
Weekend Removals Nottingham — FAQs
How far in advance should I book weekend removals in Nottingham?
For most Nottingham moves, two to three weeks is enough lead time. Between June and September, when student tenancies end across Lenton, Beeston, and Dunkirk, you should book four to eight weeks ahead. Bank holiday weekends also fill up fast. Call as soon as you have a confirmed moving date to secure your slot.
Do you cover all NG postcodes for weekend removals?
Yes. Giant Van covers NG1 through NG16, which includes every area of Nottingham city and the surrounding districts. This takes in Arnold, Beeston, Hucknall, Carlton, West Bridgford, Clifton, Long Eaton, Eastwood, and everywhere in between. We also carry out moves between Nottingham and Derby, Leicester, Sheffield, and further destinations.
What is the difference between your man and van and full removal service?
Man and van (£45 to £300) suits one-room moves and small flats where you have done your own packing. Full house removals (£250 to £850) include a larger vehicle, a one- or two-person crew, and furniture disassembly and reassembly.
If you have more than one bedroom of furniture or any white goods to move, the full service is the right choice. We will advise you honestly during booking.
Do you charge extra for moving on Saturdays or Sundays?
No. Giant Van does not add a weekend premium to any of our services. The price you receive in your written quote is the same if your move falls on a Saturday or a Sunday. There are no fuel surcharges or weekend uplift fees.
Sunday slots often have more availability than Saturday slots and the same fixed pricing applies to both.
Can you handle moves from narrow streets in central Nottingham?
Yes. Our crews regularly work on cobbled and restricted streets in Lace Market, Hockley, and the area around Castle Wharf. We carry short-carry equipment including trolleys and furniture sliders, and we assess access at both addresses during booking.
If you need a parking suspension notice arranged for a street in NG1 or NG2, we can walk you through the council application process.
Is my furniture covered if something gets damaged during the move?
Yes. Every Giant Van removal includes goods-in-transit insurance and public liability cover as standard. Our crews wrap all furniture in moving blankets before loading. If damage occurs, you report it to us directly and we handle the claim process. Every move is handled by experienced, vetted crews.
Do you offer packing services as part of a Nottingham weekend removal?
Yes. Full packing services are available as an add-on, where our crew arrives on the morning of your move and packs your entire property into boxes before loading. Packing materials including wardrobe boxes and mattress covers are also available to order with your booking. Let us know during the quote stage and we will include it in your fixed-price confirmation.
What areas near Nottingham do you travel to for removals?
We regularly cover moves between Nottingham and Derby (approximately 16 miles), Leicester (approximately 27 miles), Sheffield (approximately 37 miles), and Birmingham (approximately 50 miles). Long-distance moves to London, Manchester, and other UK cities are also available and priced individually. Call with your destination and we will provide a fixed quote for the full journey.
