The London Borough of Bromley and its edges

Areas we
cover.

Every area on this page is one we collect from routinely, from the Victorian streets of Shortlands to the hilltop roads of Biggin Hill. Six places have their own page; the rest are described below with the housing and the access notes that shape a quote. For the services themselves, see our removals in Bromley.

More of the borough

Other areas we cover across the borough.

No. 01

Shortlands

BR2

Roads: Shortlands Road, Valley Road, the A222

Victorian and Edwardian houses on the slopes of the Ravensbourne valley, many of the larger ones divided into flats. Shared hallways, long stairs and roads that are parked solid in the evening make this an area where we plan the carry and the parking before anything else.

No. 02

Bickley and Sundridge

BR1

Roads: Widmore Road, Bickley Park Road, Plaistow Lane

Large period houses and generous interwar homes east of the town centre, between Bickley and Sundridge Park stations. Bigger loads, gravel drives and gardens with furniture of their own; we usually survey in person.

No. 03

Hayes and Keston

BR2

Roads: Hayes Lane, Baston Road, the A232 at Keston

Interwar semis around Hayes station and the end of the line, then larger houses towards Keston and the commons. Driveways make parking easier; lofts and garages make loads larger than they look from the street.

No. 04

Penge and Anerley

SE20

Roads: Penge High Street, Croydon Road, Anerley Road

The north-western corner of the borough, below Crystal Palace: Victorian terraces, purpose-built flats and conversions. Narrow fronts and controlled streets near the stations, so the parking plan is part of the quote.

No. 05

Biggin Hill

TN16

Roads: Main Road, the A233

The borough's southern hilltop, a TN postcode but still Bromley. Houses and bungalows on long, quiet roads, reached through open country from Keston. We plan the vehicle for the lanes on the way in as well as the house itself.

No. 06

Swanley and the Kent edge

BR8

Roads: the A20 and the M25

Just over the borough boundary into Kent, but on the BR postcode and close to Orpington by road. Post-war houses on wide roads; most moves from here are surveyed from photographs.

Catchment questions

Questions about the areas we cover.

How is the area we cover organised?
Around the London Borough of Bromley. Bromley town, Shortlands, Beckenham, Bickley, Chislehurst, Petts Wood, Orpington, Hayes, West Wickham, Penge and Biggin Hill are routine pickups. Moves that cross into a neighbouring borough, such as Lewisham or Croydon, are covered on our two border pages.
Is there a premium for collections at the edge of the borough?
No standard surcharge. A longer drive is reflected in the written quote like any other part of the job; we do not use a postcode rate card.
Do you collect from places not listed here?
Often. This page lists the routine work. A move from elsewhere in London or the south-east can be quoted on request, and the international routes to France, Spain, Italy and Portugal run the same way wherever the collection is.

Anywhere in the catchment,
same crew, same brief.
