Arriving in London

Most of Greater London is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ), and central London has the Congestion Charge on weekdays. Any charges that apply to our vehicles are included in your quote.

Parking is often the hardest part of a London move. If your street has permit bays or yellow lines, a borough parking suspension keeps space free for the lorry on moving day.

For flats with lifts or concierge desks, let the building know your moving date and ask whether the lift needs to be reserved.

Leaving Leicester

Leicester sits close to the M1 and A1 corridors, which gives reliable journey times for a same-day move.

When leaving Leicester, give your utility suppliers and council at least a week's notice, and tell us about any access issues such as steep drives, steps or no parking outside.
