Area guide

Moving to or from Grays: what to know

Grays is the main town of Thurrock, sitting on the north bank of the Thames. It has a station on the c2c line, a riverside area, and easy access to Lakeside shopping centre and the A13. Chafford Hundred, built from the late 1980s onwards, is a large planned community with its own station and plenty of family homes.

Thurrock is a popular choice for people moving out of London who want more space for their money while staying within reach of the capital. South Ockendon, Stifford Clays, Purfleet and Tilbury each have their own mix of older homes and newer estates.

Know before you move

Moving challenges in Grays

Every area has its own quirks. These are considerations to discuss when planning your Grays move.

Property types

Three-storey townhouses mean more stairs and longer carries. Modern estates can have tight parking courts.

Weather

Riverside areas can be windy and wet. Discuss packing and wet-weather handling requirements at the survey.

Roads and parking

The A13, A1089 and Lakeside area are busy at peak times. We plan timings to suit.

Building age

Older town-centre terraces have narrow halls, while newer homes have compact stairwells. Dismantling is often needed.

Common mistakes on Grays moves

  • × Booking without a survey, then finding the van is too small
  • × Not checking parking or permits at both addresses
  • × Leaving packing until the night before
  • × Moving furniture you plan to throw away
