Quick answer
How much do Fitzrovia removals cost?
Fitzrovia is media offices on Charlotte Street and Great Portland Street, flats above the restaurants, student halls near UCLH and the Howard de Walden streets toward Marylebone, with Tottenham Court Road closed to vans for most of the day. We plan W1T moves from the side streets, early, with Camden or Westminster suspensions depending on which side of Cleveland Street you live.
Fitzrovia removals are agencies on Charlotte Street, flats above the restaurants, student halls near UCLH and Howard de Walden terraces toward Marylebone, with Tottenham Court Road closed to vans through the working day.
We plan the stop on Charlotte Street, Goodge Street or Whitfield Street, tell you whether Camden or Westminster owns your bay, crate IT separately for the agencies and start early.

- Dynamic Access Planning: Access checked against Fitzrovia road width and parking regulations.
- Local Authority Suspensions: Bays here are run by London Borough of Camden and Westminster City Council (the border is Cleveland Street). We tell you which one to suspend and for how long, so the van is at the door.
- Congestion Charge: 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.
- Factual Pricing: Pre-fixed and hourly rates with no surprise high-floor fees.
Local knowledge
Moving in Fitzrovia: 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.
Tottenham Court Road is buses and cycles only through the working day and Euston Road is a red route, so Fitzrovia moves run from the grid between them: Charlotte Street, Goodge Street, Whitfield Street, Cleveland Street. We plan the stop on a timed or suspended bay there and start early.
Cleveland Street is the border: east of it is Camden, west of it is Westminster. The suspension comes from whichever council owns your bay, and the two have different forms and lead times. We tell you which one to apply to.
Charlotte Street, Rathbone Place and Great Portland Street are agencies, production companies and architects in period buildings with narrow stairs and the odd small goods lift. We crate IT separately, label to the new floor plan and work evenings or weekends so the street is clear.
Fitzrovia homes are flats above the Charlotte Street restaurants, the Peabody and Camden estates off Cleveland Street and student halls near UCLH and UCL. Stairs more often than lifts, ambulance routes to keep clear around the hospital, and the Congestion Charge zone around all of it; we confirm how that is handled on the quote.

Customer reviews
What London customers say
Recent Google feedback from customers who booked Alpha Movers for removals and man and van jobs.
Alpha Movers were very quick to respond to my enquiry and did the job the same day. They did a great job of hoisting my headboard into our loft room via the garden.
Fantastic moving company! Excellent communication, punctual arrival, and a very organized team. They took great care of all my belongings and made moving day so much easier.
The crew was courteous, hardworking, and treated my furniture as if it were their own. Everything arrived safely without a single scratch.
Alpha movers helped me to move my stuff from Westminster to Leyton — they made my move very easy and stress free. The team was very helpful and polite.
FAQs
Fitzrovia moving questions answered
Common questions before booking in Fitzrovia. Not here? Call us — 8AM to 10PM.
It depends on your street: Cleveland Street is the border between Camden to the east and Westminster to the west. We tell you which council owns your bay and what to ask for, so the suspension is in the right place on the right day.
Not during the working day: it is buses and cycles only. We plan the stop on a side street — Charlotte Street, Goodge Street, Whitfield Street — and propose an early start so the van is in before the area fills.
Yes, all year and especially in September and June. We move single rooms into halls and shared flats around Fitzrovia and Bloomsbury, and boxes into summer storage. Send the hall name so we can check its loading slot before booking.
Small driver-only bookings in Fitzrovia start from £90 for the first 2 hours, then £45/hr. With 1 helper: from £110 / 2hrs, then £65/hr. Larger helper crews start from £150 / 2hrs. Fuel, ULEZ, blankets, straps and standard insurance cover are included in the quote structure — no surprise stair or weekend premiums. Exact time depends on inventory, W1T parking distance, stairs, lift access and where you are moving to. We plan the stop on Charlotte Street, Goodge Street or Whitfield Street, tell you whether Camden or Westminster owns your bay, crate IT separately for the agencies and start early. Send both postcodes and photos by email and we will confirm the clearest hourly or fixed option before you book.
Yes. Alpha Movers handles stair carries, no-lift walk-ups, conversions and lift-access flats across Fitzrovia and nearby Bloomsbury. Floor level and communal access are planned into the booking so helper count is realistic. We do not add a separate stair surcharge after arrival. Photos of stair turns, sofas and parking help us confirm whether dismantling or extra hands are needed. Shared halls and landings are handled carefully during the carry.
Yes. Fixed quotes suit fuller inventories, awkward W1T access or busy parking. Send photos, room or item list, both postcodes, floor levels and parking notes by email. Hourly still works well for lighter, well-prepared jobs with easy loading. Either way we explain what is included before booking so you are comparing a real plan, not a vague "from" price. Nearby moves towards Bloomsbury are quoted the same honest way.
Yes. Full packing, kitchen-only packing and fragile wrapping can be added for Fitzrovia homes and flats, including materials and room labels. Many customers pack clothes themselves and ask us to finish breakables. Packing can also combine with crate hire for books and pantry loads. Share a quick room photo set and we will recommend the lightest option that still protects glassware, mirrors and kitchen kit.
Yes. Every Alpha Movers booking includes £10,000 goods in transit cover, alongside blankets and straps for furniture. High-value or specially fragile items should be declared before collection. If a landlord or building manager in Fitzrovia asks for proof of cover, we can supply the usual documents at booking confirmation.
