Quick answer
How much does house removals cost in Pimlico?
Whole houses in Pimlico are the stucco terraces that were never split: four floors, a basement kitchen and steps to the front door. We send three people and stair protection and plan a Westminster suspension so the van sits at the door rather than down the street.
Pimlico removals are basement and upper-floor flats in converted stucco terraces with no lift, Dolphin Square with porters and a service road, and the Churchill Gardens and Lillington estates with gated courtyards.
We size the crew from your floor level and a photo of the stairs, plan a Westminster suspension for full moves and a timed bay for single items, and arrange Dolphin Square slots through the estate.
Email postcodes, floor levels, parking notes and photos of bulky items. We will tell you the right van and crew before you book.
- No ULEZ charge: it is never added to your bill.
- Access: we check Pimlico road width and parking rules before the day.
- Bay suspensions: Bays here are run by Westminster City Council. We tell you which one to suspend and for how long, so the van is at the door.
- Congestion Charge: The address sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, which keeps the day simpler; ULEZ still applies, but we never add a ULEZ charge.
- Prices: published hourly rates, whole-hour booking. Stairs are £10 per person per flight per hour and shown in the quote, never added on the day.
Local knowledge
Moving in Pimlico: what changes the job
The address sits outside the Congestion Charge zone, which keeps the day simpler; ULEZ still applies, but we never add a ULEZ charge.
Pimlico's streets are Westminster resident bays with short pay-and-display stays, and Vauxhall Bridge Road along the edge is a red route. For a full flat move we recommend a suspension at the door, and for a single item a timed bay a street away usually does. Send a kerb photo and we say which.
Most Pimlico homes are flats in converted terraces: a basement with its own steps down, or an upper floor up a staircase that narrows as it climbs. We size the crew from your floor and check sofas and wardrobes against the stair turn from photos.
Dolphin Square has its own service road, porters and lift bookings, while Churchill Gardens, Lillington and Longmoore Gardens are council and Peabody estates with gated courtyards and lift towers. Tell us the block and we plan the carry from the right entrance.
Pimlico is west and south of Vauxhall Bridge Road, outside the Congestion Charge boundary. If your other address is inside the zone the quote says so. ULEZ applies, but we never add a ULEZ charge.
