Since 2011
From Victorian villas in Surbiton to family semis in New Malden and large detached homes on Coombe Hill, Kingston moves cover a wide range of homes.
Kingston is one of London's smaller boroughs by population, and much of it is suburban family housing, with semi-detached houses the most common home type. Flats and newer apartments are concentrated around Kingston town centre, Surbiton and the riverside. The council has no fixed minimum notice for a parking suspension, but the daily bay fee is lower when you book more than a week ahead. We check access at both addresses during the free survey, help with any suspension, and plan the team and vehicle around the property.

Our services
Home removals, office relocation, or man and van, each planned around your specific property, access, and requirements across Kingston upon Thames.
Kingston's housing mix means no two home moves are the same. A detached house on Kingston Hill with a double garage, a Victorian villa in Surbiton with high ceilings and tall staircases, and a town centre apartment with a booked goods lift each need a different plan, team and vehicle. We assess all of it before moving day.
Full packing and unpacking, or fragile-only if preferred
Furniture dismantling and reassembly at both ends
Professional wrapping and protection for all items
Fully insured, fixed-price quotes, no hidden extras

About the borough
For families, the borough combines a busy town centre with plenty of green space. Richmond Park sits on its northern edge, the Thames Path runs along the riverside from Kingston to Surbiton, and Canbury Gardens, Fairfield and the open land around Chessington give the southern neighbourhoods room to breathe. Kingston's market place and riverside are among the best-known town centres in outer London.
There is no Underground in the borough, so rail does the work. South Western Railway serves Kingston, Norbiton, Surbiton, Berrylands, New Malden, Tolworth, Malden Manor and the two Chessington stations, with fast trains from Surbiton to Waterloo. By road, the A3 Kingston bypass crosses the borough, and the A307, A308 and A240 connect it to Richmond, Hampton and Epsom.
Those roads shape moving day. The A3 is a red route, Kingston town centre has a one-way system and pedestrianised streets, and traffic over Kingston Bridge can be slow at peak times. We plan start times, routes and loading positions around this as standard.
Areas we cover
We cover the whole Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. Below are the main neighbourhoods, with a note on typical property types and the access or parking considerations in each.
Kingston town centre
Kingston Hill and Coombe
Norbiton
Surbiton
Berrylands
Tolworth
New Malden
Old Malden
Chessington
The town centre has a growing number of apartment blocks, flats above shops and riverside developments, alongside Victorian terraces on the streets towards Canbury Gardens. The one-way system and pedestrianised areas limit where a van can stop, so loading positions are agreed before the day. Apartment moves usually need a goods lift booking and notice to building management.
Kingston has no fixed minimum notice for a parking suspension, but the daily bay fee is lower with more than a week's notice. You can arrange it yourself, or we can apply on your behalf and add the council's fee to your quote.
Kingston Hill and Coombe have some of the borough's largest homes, including detached houses on private and gated roads near Richmond Park and Coombe Wood. Access is usually good, with long driveways, but volumes are high and some private estates set their own rules on vehicles and timings. We confirm these in advance and send a team sized for the house.

Norbiton mixes Victorian and Edwardian terraces with post-war estates and newer flats, and is close to Kingston Hospital and Kingston University's Kingston Hill campus. Streets near the station and the hospital are busy, and controlled parking covers parts of the area. Terraced houses here often have narrow hallways that we plan around.

Surbiton is known for its large Victorian villas, many now converted into flats, along with Edwardian houses and newer apartments near the station and the riverside. Controlled parking operates around the station and the town centre. Flat conversions often mean shared entrances and upper-floor carries, which we factor into the team size.

Berrylands is mainly inter-war semis and terraced family houses on quiet residential roads. Parking is usually available on the street or on driveways, so access is generally straightforward. Moves here are mostly family homes, well suited to a two or three-person team.

Tolworth has inter-war houses, post-war flats and newer developments near the A3 and Tolworth Broadway. The A3 is a red route, so homes close to it need a side-street loading plan. Newer blocks usually need lift and loading bookings, which we confirm before moving day.

New Malden is a family area of inter-war semis, terraces and flats around the High Street, home to one of the largest Korean communities in Europe. The High Street is busy and controlled parking covers the streets near the station. Residential roads further out are generally easier, with driveways on many of them.
Kingston has no fixed minimum notice for a parking suspension, but the daily bay fee is lower with more than a week's notice. You can arrange it yourself, or we can apply on your behalf and add the council's fee to your quote.
Old Malden is a quieter area of inter-war semis and detached houses near the Hogsmill River, with good access on most roads. Homes here often have lofts and garages that add to the volume, so an accurate survey matters more than parking logistics.

Chessington, at the southern end of the borough, has inter-war and post-war family houses and some newer estates. Access is generally easy, though traffic around Chessington World of Adventures can be heavy in the summer holidays and at weekends, and we plan timings around it.

The minimum charge is a fixed fee that secures your team and vehicle for the time shown. If the move runs longer, extra time is charged at the hourly rate. The crew will keep you informed throughout, so there are no surprises.

How it works
Every move follows the same four steps, so you always know what happens next.
We look at what you are moving, by video call, a home visit or a quick list, and check access and parking.
You get a fixed price in writing, with the date, the team size and the van agreed in advance.
Boxes, materials and professional packing if you want them, plus furniture dismantling.
Your team protects floors and doorways, loads with care and reassembles at the new address.
Before you move
Controlled parking covers Kingston town centre, Surbiton, the streets around most stations and parts of Norbiton and New Malden. If your street is permit-controlled, you will need a temporary parking suspension so the removal van can load directly outside your property.
Applications go through the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. There is no fixed minimum notice, but the council charges a higher daily rate with a week's notice or less, and asks you to phone if your start date is within five days. For one Maxi Mover van, we require two standard parking bays directly outside the property, and for two vans, three bays.
Two points are specific to this borough. The A3 is a red route, where stopping is restricted and suspensions are not available, so homes near it need a side-street loading plan. And Kingston town centre's one-way system and pedestrianised streets mean the loading position must be planned before the day.
A long carry distance increases both handling time and the risk to your belongings. We advise on the specific requirements for your street when you book. Full details are in our parking suspension guide.
Access varies across the borough. Victorian villas and conversions in Surbiton and Norbiton often have front steps, shared hallways and tall staircases, while inter-war houses in Berrylands, New Malden and Old Malden usually have driveways and side access, with lofts and garages adding volume. Larger homes on Kingston Hill and Coombe need a bigger team and, sometimes, two vehicles.
Town centre and riverside apartments bring different considerations. Goods lift bookings, lift sizes, loading bay times, building access windows and management company notice all need confirming in advance, and some buildings ask for the mover's insurance documents before granting access, which we provide as standard.

Moving tips
We can visit your property or carry out a video survey to assess the volume of your move, plan the right team and vehicle, and estimate packing materials. We also check access and parking, which matters most for Victorian conversions in Surbiton and town centre apartments where the goods lift needs booking.
If your street is in one of Kingston's controlled parking zones, apply for your suspension more than a week before your move. It costs less per day, and a van parked at a distance slows the whole day down.
Set aside a bag with overnight essentials, toiletries, chargers, medication, keys, and basic kitchen items, before packing begins. Keep it with you on moving day so you are not searching through boxes at the end of a long day.
Mark each box with the room it belongs in and a short note of what is inside. Our team can then place boxes straight into the right rooms at your new home.
Defrost the fridge freezer at least 24 hours before moving day, drain the washing machine, and secure any loose shelves or glass panels. This prevents leaks or damage during transport and avoids delays on the morning.
Before the van leaves, walk through every room, cupboard, loft hatch, shed and garage. Family homes in New Malden, Old Malden and Chessington often have more storage than you remember on a busy day.
