Homes we move in Tooting
Most of Tooting is Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, and a lot of it has been split into flats. Upper floor conversion flats are very common here, which usually means a narrow shared hallway, steep stairs and no lift.
The Totterdown Fields estate between Tooting Broadway and Tooting Bec is one of the earliest council cottage estates in London. The cottages are small, the halls are narrow and the front gardens are short, so big items often need to come apart before they go out of the door.
Around Tooting Bec Common and up towards Trinity Road there are larger houses and blocks of flats. Furzedown, on the Streatham side, has wider streets of Edwardian houses that are usually easier to load.
With St George's Hospital and the high street nearby, Tooting has a lot of renters, so small moves at short notice are common. One man and a van from £55 an hour is often enough for a room in a flat share.
Parking and permits in Tooting
Most of Tooting is in the London Borough of Wandsworth, but some streets at the southern end of SW17, towards Colliers Wood and Mitcham, are in Merton. The two councils run separate parking zones and take separate suspension applications, so it is worth checking which one your street is in.
Tooting High Street and Upper Tooting Road are part of the A24, a red route run by Transport for London, where stopping is heavily restricted. We plan to load from a side street or a suspended bay rather than the main road, and we will talk it through with you when you book.
Stairs, access and getting the van close
Terraced streets in Tooting are tight, with cars parked on both sides, so a large lorry is rarely the right choice. We match the van to the street and the load.
Let us know about loft rooms, rear extensions with no side access, and anything that came in through a window, because it may have to go out the same way.

Tooting removals: common questions
Can you move just one room from a flat share in Tooting?
Yes. Small moves like this are usually done with one man and a van from £55 an hour. Tell us roughly what you have and both addresses, and we will tell you if one person is enough.
Is my Tooting street in Wandsworth or Merton?
Most of Tooting is in Wandsworth. Some streets at the south end of SW17, towards Colliers Wood and Mitcham, are in Merton. Your council tax bill or the council parking zone map will tell you, and it decides who you apply to for a parking suspension.
Can the van park on Tooting High Street?
Tooting High Street is a TfL red route, so stopping there is heavily restricted. We plan to load from a side road or a suspended bay instead.
Can you help with a Totterdown Fields cottage?
Yes. These cottages have small rooms and narrow halls, so we take beds, wardrobes and tables apart where needed and put them back together at the other end.
Do you move people from Tooting to outside London?
Yes. We move people anywhere inside or outside London. Longer moves are usually quoted on the full day rate or as a set price.
