Parking on moving day in Earl's Court
Nothing slows a London move down like nowhere to park the van. Streets here are run by Kensington and Chelsea Council. To guarantee space for the van, book a parking suspension:
- Notice: 10 working days for resident bays. Weekends and bank holidays don’t count.
- Cost: £82 per space per day, for 1 to 5 days. A space is a marked bay, or 5 metres where there are no bays.
- How: fill in the council’s application form and email it to the suspensions team. Phone applications aren’t accepted.
- Pay first: the suspension is only granted once it’s paid in full.
