The questions we are actually asked here, answered plainly. If yours is not on the list, send it with your enquiry.
Controlled throughout and genuinely tight. The Peterborough and Munster grids are narrow once cars are parked both sides, there is almost no off-street standing on the terraced stock, and match days at the Bridge close several routes. We check your bays at survey and tell you whether a suspension is worth applying for.
A great many do, and they are the single most underestimated part of a Fulham move. A lower ground or basement adds a floor, a narrow stair and usually more storage than anyone admits to. We survey it properly rather than counting bedrooms.
Regularly — the main roads and the riverside have a good deal of the stock. The building's procedure matters as much as its physics: a porter to tell, a goods lift to book, sometimes permitted hours and occasionally required communal floor covering.
Common on this stock. Veneer and inlay, marble tops, gilt, large mirrors and framed work get cases or crates rather than blankets, identified at survey and declared so cover is confirmed in writing before you book.
Yes — wrapped, listed on an inventory and racked indoors, collected as part of the same move. SW6 chains run long and a lot of the period stock wants work before anyone moves in.
Volume, access at both ends, how much packing you want done, and distance. In Fulham the access line is a real one — a four-floor terrace with a lower ground and no standing is genuinely more work than a Sands End flat with a loading bay.
No, and there is no obligation. For the newer riverside stock a video call usually does it; for the period terraces and mansion blocks we would rather see the stair and the loading point ourselves.
They can. Home fixtures at the Bridge close and congest several routes through SW6 for much of a day, and nearby parking disappears. We check the fixture list against your date at survey and shift the loading window where it helps.
Constantly. Most of SW6 is Victorian and Edwardian, much of it in a conservation area. Lime plaster marks, original boards scuff, and period joinery does not forgive a corner taken at speed.
Uprights routinely, with the correct board and straps. Grands we assess first, and out of a mansion flat with a lift that will not take one we would rather bring in a piano specialist.
Goods in transit and storage cover are in place, with the usual conditions around owner-packed cartons and items of unusual value. Declare anything genuinely valuable at survey and we will confirm in writing what applies.
Either, or a split. The usual arrangement is that you do the books, the clothes and the wardrobes and we do the kitchen, the glass, the pictures and anything old.
The load stays on the vehicle or goes into store overnight rather than onto a pavement. We tell you plainly what that means for the booking rather than sending a surprise invoice.
Yes — larger houses towards Hurlingham with more volume and frequently more fragile contents, plus newer apartment development along Fulham Reach with proper loading bays. Two ends of the same road behaving nothing alike.
The edges only. Hammersmith has its own coverage on our network and we do not poach it; Chelsea and Putney are other patches. For London-wide moves our pan-London sister sites are the better fit.
Small commercial — offices and practices along the Fulham Road and New Kings Road, studios and small units. Out of hours usually makes most sense.
Yes. Two households merging, or a flat plus a storage unit emptied on the way. Mention both so the route and timing are costed from the start.
As soon as you have a date, even provisional. Fridays and month-ends go first, and anything needing a bay suspension or a lift booking wants more notice than the move itself.
We do, built from the survey inventory. Since the UK left the EU a household move needs a proper packing list and the destination country's transfer-of-residence process, and each of the four differs.
Put it in the notes on the quote form. Services covers what we do, coverage covers where, and European removals covers moves that leave the country.
Send both addresses and a sense of what is coming. We survey — at the property or by video — then put a clear quote in writing, with what is included and what would change it.
