Not moving a whole house? A man and van covers the 80 miles to London for a smaller load, with the same care as a full removal. A man and van is usually the most cost-effective option for a studio or one-bedroom move on this route.

Piano and specialist items
Moving a piano, antique or large piece of art to London? We use skids, straps and extra movers, and secure it properly in the vehicle for the whole journey.
Student moves
Heading between Margate and London for university? Shared or small-load moves keep the cost down, and we can collect from halls or a shared house at a time that suits you.
Arriving in 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.
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 Margate
Margate is within easy reach of London, so even larger moves are usually completed comfortably in one day.
When leaving Margate, 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.
