Area guide

Moving to or from Kent: what to know

Kent, known as the Garden of England, stretches from the south-east edge of London to the coast. It includes towns such as Dartford, Gravesend, Sevenoaks, Maidstone, Tonbridge and the Medway towns, as well as countless villages.

Kent is linked to Essex by the Dartford Crossing and to London by major roads and rail lines, including high-speed services from Ebbsfleet. This makes it a popular choice for people moving out of London.

Homes range from period cottages and oast houses in the villages to Victorian terraces in the towns and large new-build developments around Ebbsfleet, Dartford and Medway. Country lanes can be narrow, so we check access at the survey.

For your Kent move, tell us about your dates, addresses, items and any access or parking restrictions. We offer free surveys and fixed quotes, with packing and dismantling services available.

Short- and long-term containerised storage is available alongside removals. Contact us to discuss the facility location, access and transport arrangements.

Know before you move

Moving challenges in Kent

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

Property types

Period cottages have low beams and narrow doorways.

Weather

Rural areas can be exposed to wind and rain.

Roads and parking

Country lanes can restrict van size, and the Dartford Crossing can be busy.

Building age

Older homes need careful handling.

Common mistakes on Kent 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

  • Access at both ends: stairs, lifts and parking
  • The distance between your old and new addresses
  • Extras like packing, dismantling, storage or disposal

The fixed quote covers the agreed work. Discuss any changes to your requirements before proceeding. Payment is by bank transfer or cash.
