Local knowledge

What actually slows a move down out east

The things that change how long a job takes here, and how we plan around them.

Controlled parking zones

Much of Hackney, Tower Hamlets and Newham is CPZ. Where there is no loading bay within reach we will tell you before the day whether a bay suspension is worth arranging, and it is charged at cost rather than marked up.

Victorian terraces and narrow stairs

Walthamstow, Leyton and Bow are full of them. Wardrobes and sofa beds often need dismantling to get down a turn in the stairs, which we allow for in the quote rather than discovering on the day.

New-build flats and lift booking

Stratford, Canning Town and Canary Wharf blocks usually require a booked service lift and a loading bay slot. Check with your building manager early, as weekend slots go first.

ULEZ, and the charge you will not pay

All of East London sits inside the ULEZ zone. Where a ULEZ charge applies to your move it is passed on at cost and never marked up. The Congestion Charge zone does not reach East London, so it rarely applies to a local move.

Questions

East London removals, answered

How much does a man and van cost in East London?

A man and van in East London is charged by the hour, at a rate set by the van size, with a minimum number of hours per booking. A local move within East London is usually quicker, and therefore cheaper, than one crossing the city, because travel time between the two addresses is part of the billed time. Our full rate card and estimator gives a range before you commit to anything.

Do you cover Stratford, Walthamstow and Romford?

Yes. Stratford is in Newham, Walthamstow in Waltham Forest and Romford in Havering, and all three boroughs are covered, along with Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Redbridge and Barking & Dagenham. That is every East London borough.

Can you do a same-day move in East London?

Often, yes. Same-day and last-minute bookings are taken subject to what is already in the diary that day, and being based in London means an East London job is usually reachable at short notice. Call rather than email if the move is today.

Do you collect from IKEA and other stores in East London?

Yes. Store collections are one of our regular jobs, and IKEA Greenwich is just across the river from East London. We collect, deliver, and can assemble the flat-pack once it is in the room you want it.

Are you insured for moves in East London?

Yes. Every job carries Goods in Transit insurance and we hold Public Liability insurance, which applies to all our work across London and the UK, East London included.

Do you move from East London to elsewhere in the UK?

Yes. Moves out of East London to anywhere in the UK are quoted as a fixed price for the whole journey rather than by the hour, so traffic and distance cannot push the total up after you have agreed it.
