Local realities in Rochester — and how we adapt
Local property mix: Period stock through the High Street conservation area, modern flats along the Medway.
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.
What's included
Long-distance moves benefit from a dedicated vehicle and crew — no transhipment, no shared loads, single point of contact, predictable timing.
