- No ULEZ charge: it is never added to your bill.
- Access: we check Croydon road width and parking rules before the day.
- Bay suspensions: Bays here are run by Croydon Council. We tell you which one to suspend and for how long, so the van is at the door.

Local knowledge
Moving in Croydon: what changes the job
Trams run along George Street, Wellesley Road and Addiscombe Road and a van cannot stop on the tracks, so central jobs use the building's bay or a side street.
Saffron Square and the newer blocks have concierges and lifts you must book. Send the building name.
The A23 Purley Way is slow at weekends because of the retail parks, so we time the drive.

Most Croydon house removals start at £390 for a Luton Box Van and 3-person crew (£130 an hour, 3-hour minimum), then the same hourly rate in whole hours, with any overrun charged in 30-minute steps. Complex moves can be fixed-price. A prepared CR0 terrace stays nearer the minimum; a fuller CR2 or CR8 family home with loft and garage needs more time. Insurance, blankets and straps are included, with no weekend premium; stairs and mileage are priced up front. Email bedroom count, both postcodes and photos and we will recommend hourly or fixed.
Yes. Beds, wardrobes, desks and dining tables can be dismantled at the old house and rebuilt at the new one when agreed beforehand. It helps on tight Thornton Heath terraces and in loft conversions. Prices come from our dismantling list, with a £90 minimum booking. Photograph custom or fragile pieces first. Email the pictures and we will mark what must come apart.
Yes. Fixed quotes suit Croydon houses when room count, photos, loft or garage notes and parking are clear, including longer moves into London or elsewhere in the UK. Send driveway or CPZ details and packing needs. Lighter, well-prepared houses with easy parking can stay hourly. We will set out what is included, plus mileage and any stair charge, before you compare quotes.
Yes, when loft, shed and garage contents are declared up front. CR2 and CR8 homes often hide bikes, tools and boxes that change the van size. Purley Way and A23 traffic affects arrival times, so we plan around it. Tell us about loft hatch size, garage steps, garden routes and anything going to the tip. Email a few photos with bedroom count and we will size the crew and timetable.
Yes. Every Croydon house removal includes £10,000 goods in transit cover, plus blankets, straps and careful carrying. Cover runs from collection to delivery while our crew handles your things. Declare antiques or art for packing notes. If a managing agent wants proof before access, we send it at confirmation.
Yes. Full packing, kitchen-only packing or fragile wrapping can be added before or on move day. Packing packages start at £400 for a one-bedroom home and £600 for two bedrooms, labour and materials included. Many people pack bedrooms themselves and leave kitchens and mirrors to us. Email room photos or a box estimate and we will recommend the right level, timed with the van.
