Giant Removals: residential and commercial removals in London

Giant Removals is a moving company based in London that provides packing and transport services for homes and offices. The company presents itself as a licensed and insured business with industry experience, offering services tailored to the size of the shipment, the nature of the goods and the client's budget. Its catalogue ranges from full house removals to man and van services for small moves, as well as a wide range of specialist removals.

Removal services for homes and offices

The company offers house and office removal services, including packing and unpacking on request, as well as dismantling and reassembling furniture. For house removals, staff pack the goods before moving day, load them into the vehicle and unload them at the new home. Installation services are also offered. In the office sector, the company carries out office removals and office clearances.

Man and van service

The man and van service is aimed at small moves, such as student removals, small internal relocations, collections, deliveries and part removals. It consists of a van with a driver trained to help with loading. The vehicles are padded to prevent breakages or scratches, and packing materials are provided so the client can organise their belongings.
