Local knowledge
Moving in Chancery Lane: what changes the job
The address sits inside the Congestion Charge zone. We confirm on the quote how the charge is handled, so nothing is added on the day.
Fleet Street and High Holborn restrict loading for most of the day, and the lanes between them — Chancery Lane itself, Fetter Lane, Cursitor Street — are narrow and one-way. We plan the stop from a map and a kerb photo, then confirm it with the building before quoting.
Lincoln's Inn and Gray's Inn control their own gates and hours. Moving a set of chambers means agreeing a schedule with the Inn's staff, crating files so nothing is loose, and carrying through courtyards and stair turns built long before lifts. We bring crates, sack trucks and a crew that is used to it.
The newer blocks on Holborn Viaduct, Fetter Lane and New Fetter Lane have goods lifts, loading bays and building managers with a checklist. We book the lift, send proof of cover and move in the evening or at the weekend so the firm opens as normal.
There are more residents here than most people expect: conversions above Fleet Street shops, blocks on Chancery Lane and Bream's Buildings, student rooms near LSE. These are walk-ups and small lifts with no resident parking, so the suspension-first rule applies just as it does for the offices.

FAQs
Chancery Lane moving questions answered
Common questions before booking in Chancery Lane. Not here? Call us — 8AM to 10PM.
Packing is quoted separately from the moving rate — partial packing for selected rooms or fragile-only work, or full-home packing as a package once we see room count, kitchen size and photos of breakables. Materials, labelling and timing all affect the final figure. Many customers save money by packing clothes themselves and booking us for kitchens, glassware and mirrors. Send a quick walk-through video or room photos by email and we will recommend partial packing, full packing or materials-only support before you book. Packing round Chancery Lane is files and law books: sealed crates, labelled by room and shelf, moved as one load so nothing confidential is mixed with furniture. Send postcodes, floor levels and photos and we confirm the plan before you book.
Yes. We agree the schedule and gate access with the Inn's staff, crate files so nothing travels loose, and plan the carry through courtyards and stairs that were never built for furniture. Tell us the Inn and the building and we will set it up.
Files travel sealed in crates, labelled to the new floor plan, moved as a single load and never mixed with general furniture. If the firm needs it, we run a two-stage move so live files stay accessible until the last trip.
In the building's loading bay if it has one, otherwise in a bay on a side street suspended by Camden. Fleet Street and High Holborn are not realistic for a two-hour stop. We confirm the stop before the quote so the carry distance is priced in.
Yes. Boxes, tape, paper and protective wrapping can be supplied when agreed in the quote. If you already have some cartons, we can top up only what is missing so you are not paying for unused materials. Wardrobe boxes and fragile wrap are useful for hanging clothes, glassware and mirrors. Tell us roughly how many rooms are still unpacked and we will suggest a sensible materials list with the packing labour.

Yes. Kitchen-only and fragile-only packing are two of the most requested options. Plates, glasses, pantry jars and small appliances take time and are easy to damage when rushed into soft bags. We wrap, box and label so the kitchen can be unpacked in a usable order at the new address. Bedrooms and clothes can stay as DIY packing if you prefer a lighter bill.
