Moving to Richmond – Key Things to Know
Richmond is one of the most sought-after areas in southwest London, offering a perfect blend of riverside charm, leafy parks, and elegant homes. From historic townhouses near Richmond Green to modern flats overlooking the Thames, the area appeals to families, professionals, and retirees alike. But with its popularity comes traffic, parking rules, and logistical challenges that require proper planning for a smooth relocation.
🚗 Traffic in Richmond
Expect heavy congestion during rush hours, especially along the A316 (Chertsey Road), Richmond Hill, and Twickenham Road. School runs, rugby match days, and weekend visitors to Richmond Park can also impact traffic flow. That’s why we plan every move around local peak times and use real-time routing tools to avoid delays.
🅿️ Parking in Richmond
Richmond upon Thames Council operates strict Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) across much of the borough. These zones typically require visitor permits or temporary suspensions to allow safe and legal parking for removal vans. Our team will assist you with applying for the correct permits in advance, helping avoid fines or access issues on moving day.
