Local knowledge
Moving in Notting Hill: what changes the job
The market fills Portobello Road on Fridays and Saturdays, and the streets around it are slow. We move W11 early in the week or early in the day.
Over the August bank holiday weekend the roads close for Carnival and no van can get in or out. We do not book Notting Hill moves on those days.
The crescents are tall stucco houses split into flats on RBKC resident bays; the mews are cobbled and tight. We suspend a bay for full moves and send a small van into the mews.
