Parking

Parking on moving day in Wimbledon

Nothing slows a London move down like nowhere to park the van. Streets here are run by Merton Council. To guarantee space for the van, book a parking suspension:

  • Notice: at least 10 full working days before the move.
  • Cost: £36.75 per space for the first day, then £40 for each extra day, plus a £36.75 admin fee.
  • How: apply online with a debit or credit card.

No suspension? The alternative is paid parking. We use the nearest pay-by-phone or pay-and-display bay, as close to your door as possible, and the cost is added to your quote.
