What do I need to know before moving from
London to Manchester?
Moving between cities takes more planning than a local move. Here are a few things to sort before your moving day.
Factor in M6 Traffic
The M6 can be unpredictable. Check live traffic updates before you set off from London to try to avoid delays around Birmingham or Stoke. Even a short delay will increase the time the driver charges for the job.
Check Manchester City Centre Parking Restrictions
Manchester has no congestion charge, but parking restrictions are strictly enforced in the city centre. If you're moving into Deansgate, the Northern Quarter or Ancoats, check whether your street requires a loading bay permit before moving day.
Book Weekend Slots at Least a Week Ahead
London to Manchester is one of the busiest Saturday routes on the platform and drivers fill up quickly. Book at least a week ahead for weekend dates, out-of-hours surcharges also apply for starts before 8am or after 7pm.
Notify Your Buildings
Inform your building management in both London and Manchester about your move. Flats in areas like Canary Wharf or Salford Quays often have specific rules about using lifts for moving furniture. Check the maximum weight and book lift access in advance.
