Parking suspension in South London: If your South London move requires dedicated parking for a removal van, a parking suspension may need to be arranged in advance, particularly in Controlled Parking Zones or on busy residential roads. Suspension charges vary by borough and are typically calculated per parking space per day. For example, current 2026/27 charges are £57.55 per space per day in Lambeth, while Southwark charges £53.15 per space per day, plus a £93 administration fee. Arranging a suspension in advance can help ensure the removal van has safe and convenient access on moving day.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“We used Movivan for our home move including full packing service. From the initial visit to quote, through to the packing and move itself I cannot fault them. They were honest, professional, friendly and efficient. Nothing was too much trouble and special mention to Yuri who could tell how stressed I was and did everything he could to reassure me and put me at ease. I will recommend them to anyone who asks me and would definitely use them again. “
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Thoroughly impressed with Movivan from beginning to end. Clear pricing, with a well laid out contract. On the day the guys turned up on time and got on with packing up which they did efficiently and quickly. Checking in when they needed to.
Unloading at the other end was equally efficient, considering we were smack bang in the middle of a heatwave and it was a first floor flat.“
FAQs – South London Removals
Everything you need to know before booking Movivan for your South London move.
💬 How far in advance should I book a removal company in South London?
We recommend booking at least 2–4 weeks in advance, especially if you’re moving during busy periods like weekends or the end of the month. Last-minute bookings are possible, but availability may be limited.
💬 What is the cheapest day to move?
Mid-week moves (Tuesday or Wednesday) are usually cheaper due to lower demand. Moving mid-month also tends to be more affordable than end-of-month dates.

If your address is within the London Congestion Charge or ULEZ zone, additional fees may apply. These will be clearly stated in your quote — no hidden costs.

Yes! We offer packing boxes, bubble wrap, tape, wardrobe boxes, and more. We can also deliver the moving supplies to you before your moving day at no extra charge.

Yes. Our services are not limited to full house removals. We can also assist with smaller moves, furniture moves and selected single-item removals, depending on the size and requirements of the job.
