What our Islington man with a van customers say

Nov 2022

Our driver Mohammed was the best! He was super fast and efficient. He was an expert packer and wanted to make sure we got things done as quickly as possible so we wouldn’t have to pay more. Not a lot of companies will do that. He’s the best!!

Hiva was amazing. He knew what he was doing, was kind, polite and quick. I couldn’t recommend him enough.

Ibrahim was super helpful today. I usually move myself, but thought I’d get some help this time and it was definitely the right decision. We managed to fit everything in one trip with zero casualties. Would definitely use again

Moving in Islington

What our Islington crews plan for

What helps most on moving day in Islington, based on our 206 jobs in the borough.

Controlled parking on almost every street

Nearly every Islington street sits in a controlled parking zone, and many bays are for residents only. Book a bay suspension or visitor permit through the council ahead of time so the van can stop outside, not round the corner.

Stairs in converted terraces

About 25 in 100 of our Islington jobs involve stairs at one end. Many Georgian and Victorian houses are split into upper-floor flats with narrow stairwells, so measure sofas and beds before the day.

Congestion Charge near Clerkenwell

Most of Islington is outside the Congestion Charge zone, but Clerkenwell and the streets south of Pentonville Road and City Road sit inside it. ULEZ covers the whole borough, as it does all of London.

Saturday fills up first

Across Islington, Saturday is our busiest day (29% of jobs) and Tuesday the quietest (8%). August is the peak month and May the calmest, so a midweek date in May gives you the widest choice of slots.

Holloway Road and Upper Street traffic

The A1 through Holloway and Upper Street is slow at rush hour, with bus lanes and red route sections. Mid-morning starts tend to run more smoothly than an 8am start or a late afternoon slot.
