How it works

Three steps and a price that holds

  1. Tell us about your Hither Green move

    Rooms, dates and both addresses — plus photos of anything awkward if they are easy to take. Two minutes online or one call, and we already know Hither Green (SE13, SE12).

  2. Fixed written quote

    Back the same working day with Lewisham parking suspensions, dispensations, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge already inside the number. No doorstep re-quote.

  3. Access sorted, then we move you

    We survey the kerb before the day: where the van can legally sit on your Hither Green street, whether a bay suspension is needed and how far the walk-in is. On the day, floors, doorframes and communal halls are protected, furniture is dismantled and reassembled, and everything is insured in transit.

Why us

Why Hither Green books us and stays booked

Fixed quotes that include Lewisham permits

Lewisham parking suspensions, dispensations, ULEZ and the Congestion Charge are inside the written number before you commit — the price you accept for SE13 is the price you pay.

Crews who already know the roads

Two and three-man teams who load in Hither Green most weeks: blankets, straps and trolleys on every van, floors and communal halls protected as standard.

Insured on every job

Goods-in-transit and public liability cover, DBS-checked movers, and certificates emailed to you or your Lewisham building manager before the day.

Winder stairs and kerbside loading in Hither Green

Terraced hallways turn twice before the first landing, so we measure the awkward pieces first, dismantle what needs it and suspend a bay outside the door rather than carrying a sofa sixty metres.

About the place

Moving in Hither Green what it actually involves

Most of Hither Green reads the way its streets were built: quiet Edwardian streets around Staplehurst Road's small parade. The stock is edwardian terraces in family use or split into two flats. which decides how a move runs here — what comes apart, what goes down the stairs and how long the carry is. For a van, narrow terraced streets, level crossings and permit bays near the station. Hither Green is the nearest station, and we quote local removals across SE13, SE12 on those facts rather than an average.

Four weeks before — book and confirm

  • Confirm the move date, arrival window and both addresses in writing for your Hither Green SE13 move.
  • Match the van size to the property type — Edwardian terraces in family use or split into two flats.
  • Ask London Borough of Lewisham whether your street needs a parking dispensation or a suspended bay, and what notice it wants.
  • ULEZ applies across all London boroughs — check the van is compliant and the charge is inside your quote.
  • Tell your landlord or agent the exact handover date and key-return time.
  • Book the end-of-tenancy or pre-move-in clean for the day either side of the move.
  • Start running down freezer food, cleaning products and anything that cannot legally travel in the van.

Two weeks before — permits, lifts and paperwork

  • Apply for the London Borough of Lewisham bay suspension or dispensation — most London councils want 5–10 working days.
  • Book the lift, loading bay or service entrance with the building manager if your block has one.
  • Access reality to plan around: Narrow terraced streets, level crossings and permit bays near the station.
  • Redirect post and update the SE13 address on the electoral roll, bank, insurance and driving licence.
  • Give energy, water, broadband and council tax the closing and opening dates for both properties.
  • Register with a new GP, dentist and vet if you are leaving the area; arrange school or nursery transfers.

One week before — pack room by room

  • Label every box with the destination room, not the room it came from.
  • Pack a first-night box: kettle, mugs, chargers, bedding, toilet roll, medication, tools.
  • Photograph the back of the TV and any flat-pack before you dismantle it.
  • Drain the washing machine and fit its transit bolts.
  • Take paint, oils, batteries and garden waste to a London Borough of Lewisham reuse and recycling centre — the crew cannot legally load them.
  • Set aside passports, valuables and jewellery to travel with you, not in the van.

The day before — final prep

  • Charge phones and keep a paper copy of the crew's number and the new address.
  • Defrost the fridge-freezer and towel it dry.
  • Take meter readings at the old property and photograph them.
  • Hold the loading space with cones or bins if kerb space near Manor House Gardens is tight on the day.
  • Strip the beds you are taking and bag bedding and clothes.
  • Reconfirm the arrival window with the crew and the key-collection time with the agent.

Moving day — loading

  • Walk the crew through the property first and flag fragile and do-not-load items.
  • Protect carpets, stair noses, communal halls and door frames before the first box moves.
  • Load heavy furniture first, boxes second, soft furnishings last.
  • Keep the first-night box, paperwork and keys with you rather than in the van.
  • Check lofts, sheds, gardens, balconies and every cupboard before the van pulls away.
  • Final meter readings, lock up, hand back keys and get the handover confirmed in writing.

Moving day — unloading and sign-off

  • Direct each box to its labelled room as it comes off the van.
  • Build the beds first so the day can end even if boxes are still packed.
  • Test the boiler, hot water, smoke alarms and the consumer unit.
  • Take arrival meter readings and photograph them.
  • Check items against your inventory and report any damage before the crew leaves.
  • Flatten boxes and book a recycling collection or a clearance slot.
