Man & Van in Croydon usually comes down to access: where the van can legally stop, how many flights of stairs there are, and whether the lift takes furniture. Tell us those when you ask for a quote and they are priced in writing — not discovered on the day.
A driver and a van by the hour — for single rooms, part-loads, student moves and everything that does not need a full removals crew.

We bring the materials. Boxes, tape, bubble wrap and wardrobe cartons arrive with the crew and are itemised in your quote, so there is nothing to buy or collect first.

Council rules
What the council says about moving day in Croydon
Published by the authorities themselves, with a link to each. Rules and fees change, so check the source before you rely on them.
Reserving space outside the property: Croydon Council
Croydon asks for a minimum of 10 working days before the date you need a bay suspended. For residents it lists a £46 administration charge plus a suspension fee of £46 a day in Central CPZ bays or £35 a day in all other bays. You apply by emailing parkingsuspension@croydon.gov.uk with a phone number so the council can call back to take payment. The page describes suspensions in general and does not mention house moves, so ask the council whether yours qualifies.
Croydon Council: how to get parking restrictions suspendedULEZ covers every London borough
The Ultra Low Emission Zone has covered all London boroughs since 29 August 2023. A van that does not meet the ULEZ emissions standard is charged for each day it is driven inside the zone, so ask whichever company you book which vehicle will be used and check it with TfL's vehicle checker.

Oba Frank
Full House Removal & Packing
“We could not recommend AFS Removals highly enough. Their professionalism, organisation, and attention to detail throughout the entire moving process were exceptional. Every member of the team was friendly, reliable, and committed.”
Simon Newbury
Short Notice House Move
“We had originally booked a local firm for our move, but due to a last minute exchange and insane demand for movers, none were available. AFS had a 3-man crew available at short notice who were brilliant and hardworking.”
Drew Harvey
Packing & House Move
“Booking was straightforward and AFS confirmed a few days before. The team turned up on time and were friendly and efficient. They packed up, drove to the delivery address and unpacked again, all with no drama or fuss.”
