Man with a Van Guiseley

Our man and van in Guiseley

Man With Van Long Wheelbase is one driver and one Ford Transit long wheelbase van, based in Bradford, 7 miles from Guiseley (25-35 minutes by road). Guiseley is inside our core area, so the drive is simply part of one fixed price agreed before we set off.

Moving in Guiseley: what to know first

Otley Road, the A65, is the main shopping street, and it carries traffic towards Otley and Ilkley through most of the day, so there is little kerb space to stand a van. Streets near Guiseley station, with trains to Leeds, Bradford and Ilkley on the Wharfedale line, fill with commuter cars on weekdays, which is worth knowing before planning a weekday move near the station or Oxford Road.

Tranmere Park lies across Bradford Road from the centre, running down towards Hawksworth Lane: a 1930s garden village, mostly semis and detached homes behind front gardens. Silverdale, Cuddy Hill, Kelcliffe, Town Head and Greenbottom fill in the rest of the town, with the village of Hawksworth just to the west, and the townhouses and apartments off Silver Cross Way stand on the site of the Silver Cross pram factory, which closed in 2002.

Guiseley Retail Park off Park Road (home to M&S Simply Food) and Westside Retail Park on Leeds Road (Sports Direct, TK Maxx, Next, Currys and HomeSense) both have open surface parking, which makes a collection there simple. If a centre job needs a car left at the Netherfield Road council car park, check the current parking rules there first. The van runs 8am to 8pm, seven days, which suits shift workers at the airport.

Parking and access in Guiseley

Large surface car parks at Guiseley Retail Park (LS20 8QH) and Westside Retail Park (LS20 9NE). Check the current rules at the Netherfield Road council car park before leaving a car there. Residential streets near the station are busy with commuter parking on weekdays.

• Hollins Hill (A6038) is the main approach from Bradford, a long sustained climb that slows a fully loaded LWB van.
• Tranmere Park lies across Bradford Road from the centre, running down to Hawksworth Lane, with front gardens between the kerb and the door.
• The A65 Otley Road through the centre carries heavy traffic with very little kerb space to pull up on.
• Streets near Guiseley station are parked up by commuters during the working day.
