Quick answer
How much do Lambeth removals cost?
Lambeth's northern end around Waterloo, Vauxhall and Kennington behaves like Central London: riverside towers at Nine Elms and Albert Embankment, Georgian squares in Kennington and estates tucked behind. The Congestion Charge boundary cuts through the borough.
Lambeth moves frequently deal with red route restrictions, council housing estate access, lift booking windows, and Central London bridge tolls.
We coordinate service lift schedules, manage estate parking rules, obtain Lambeth Council parking permissions, and pack with heavy-duty protection.
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 Lambeth road width and parking rules before the day.
- Bay suspensions: Bays here are run by Lambeth Council. We tell you which one to suspend and for how long, so the van is at the door.
- Congestion Charge: The address sits on the edge of the Congestion Charge zone, so we check which side the van will stop on and confirm it on the quote.
- 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 Lambeth: what changes the job
The address sits on the edge of the Congestion Charge zone, so we check which side the van will stop on and confirm it on the quote.
The towers on Albert Embankment and at Nine Elms come with concierges, loading bays and lift slots you have to book. Send the building name and we handle the booking.
Cleaver Square, Walcot Square and the streets off Kennington Road are Georgian terraces with resident bays. A Lambeth suspension lets the van stand at your door.
Waterloo Road, Kennington Road and the Vauxhall gyratory are red routes. We stop on side streets and arrive outside the rush hours.

Waterloo and the land north of Kennington Lane are inside it; Vauxhall, Stockwell and the rest are not. We check your address and state the position on the quote.
Yes. We arrange the lift and loading bay with the concierge and send our cover document ahead of the day.
A small van with a driver is £55/hr, with a 2-hour minimum (£110). The same van with two people is £75/hr (2-hour minimum, £150), and a Luton with three people is £130/hr (3-hour minimum, £390). You book whole hours, and if the job overruns the extra time is billed in 30-minute steps. Mileage is charged one way, from collection to delivery, and stairs are £10 per person per flight per hour. There is no weekend, evening, bank holiday or ULEZ premium and no deposit. How long it takes depends on your items, the walk from the van at SE1, and the stairs or lifts. We coordinate service lift schedules, manage estate parking rules, obtain Lambeth Council parking permissions, and pack with heavy-duty protection. Email both postcodes and some photos and we price it.
Yes. Walk-ups, conversions and lift blocks across Lambeth and Brixton are all part of the job, and we staff the crew for the number of flights. Stairs cost £10 per person on the crew, per flight, for each hour at that address. A floor counts as 2 flights, the ground floor is free, and a working lift removes the charge. It is written into the quote so nothing is added on the day. Photos of the stair turns, your sofa and the parking help us see whether anything has to come apart.
By the hour at the published rates. You book whole hours, at least 2 for a small van and 3 for a Luton, and any overrun is billed in 30-minute steps. Mileage is charged one way and stairs are charged per flight. Send photos, a list of items, both postcodes, floor levels and parking notes, and we reply with the van, the crew and how many hours to book. A move towards Brixton, or anywhere else in the UK, is priced the same way.
Yes: full packing, kitchen-only packing or fragile wrapping, with materials and room labels. A one-bedroom home is £400 and a two-bedroom home £600, labour and materials included. Many people pack their clothes themselves and leave the breakables to us. Send a few photos of the rooms and we suggest the lightest option that still protects your glass, mirrors and kitchen things.
Yes. Every booking carries £10,000 goods in transit cover, with blankets and straps for furniture. Mention valuable or very fragile items before collection. If your landlord or building manager in Lambeth wants proof of cover, we send it once the booking is confirmed.
Yes: sofas, wardrobes, beds, appliances, desks and Marketplace finds. If a piece might not fit the stairs or the lift, send photos and we check whether it can be dismantled or brought in another way before the day. We set it down in the room you choose where access allows. We coordinate service lift schedules, manage estate parking rules, obtain Lambeth Council parking permissions, and pack with heavy-duty protection.
