Working in City of Westminster: what we plan for
Local property mix: Stucco-fronted Georgian and Regency terraces, mansion blocks, and ultra-prime modern apartments.
Vehicles sized to the streets
Medieval and Georgian streets in this part of the UK weren't designed for a 7.5-tonne Luton. We default to short-wheelbase or transit vans where access is tight, sometimes splitting the load across two smaller vehicles rather than risk a stuck truck in a one-way Georgian terrace. If the council has a footstreet scheme with timed access, we apply for the permit in advance — that's part of the service, not an extra you have to figure out.
Borough rules, building rules
London boroughs each run their own parking, suspended-bay and dispensation systems, and most large blocks layer building-specific rules on top — lift bookings, agreed move-in days, hours of work and waste-route restrictions. We've worked across most of London's residential stock and know the difference between a TfL red-route restriction and a borough loading bay, between Westminster's permit rules and Lambeth's. We handle the admin so you don't have to chase the council the night before.
