Moving between
Lewisham and Bromley.
Many of our shortest moves cross the boundary between Lewisham and Bromley. A household in Downham or Grove Park takes a larger house in Plaistow or Sundridge; a couple in Bickley moves closer to the trains at Grove Park. These border removals start or finish on the Bromley side, and we plan them with the same attention to parking and access as any move inside the borough.
Along the boundary
Border moves on the A21 and Burnt Ash Lane.
- Downham and the Bromley Road
- Interwar cottage-estate houses either side of the boundary near Bromley Road. Short moves into BR1 are common; the houses are compact, so the work is mostly about stairs and the front path.
- Grove Park and the Bromley North line
- Grove Park sits at the far end of the branch line from Bromley North. Households moving between SE12 and the streets around Bromley North often know the line well; the move itself usually runs by the A21 or Burnt Ash Lane.
- Bellingham and Southend
- The southern fringe of Lewisham, on the A21 approach to Bromley. Moves from here tend to head south into Sundridge, Plaistow or Bickley, often for a larger house or a garden.
- Sundridge and Plaistow (BR1)
- The Bromley side of the same boundary: Edwardian houses and interwar semis, a short run from Downham and Grove Park. Many border moves end here.
Two councils, one move
Planning a move that crosses the boundary.
A border move is short in distance but involves two councils. Parking at the Lewisham address is a matter for Lewisham; parking at the Bromley address is a matter for Bromley. We look at both streets at survey, say whether either needs a bay suspension, and help with the applications. Everything else, from packing to unloading, runs as it does for our house removals in Bromley.
If the move is a downsize, the contents that are not coming can be cleared on the same day through our house clearance service. For the full picture of our removals in Bromley, start at the home page.
