Moving into Washington

The A1(M) gives a direct route between Washington and London, one of the longest continuous routes on the network.

Before moving day, check whether your new street in Washington has parking restrictions, and let us know about narrow roads, steps or long carries so we bring the right vehicle.

Leaving London

London's ULEZ and Congestion Charge can add cost to a move, so we price them in from the start rather than adding them on the day.

Many London streets have permit parking or red routes. If there is no space outside, we can advise on a parking suspension from your borough council, which usually needs about two weeks' notice.

If you are leaving a flat, check with your managing agent about lift bookings, loading bay times and any rules on moving hours.
