Packing Services in EC2: the local picture

The towers: Lauderdale, Cromwell and Shakespeare

The three tall towers rise from the podium with lifts at their core.

The terrace blocks around the lake

The lower blocks curve around the water and the gardens, each with its own podium entrances and stair cores.

Beech Street and the tunnel approach

Beech Street runs beneath the estate in a covered stretch with its own loading character.

Golden Lane Estate

North of the station, Golden Lane offers a contrast: mid-century blocks around courtyards, including Great Arthur House.

Fann Street, Aldersgate and the eastern edge

Towards Aldersgate Street the quarter mixes estate edges with City offices and newer apartments.

Smithfield and Charterhouse side

West of the station the streets run towards Smithfield Market and Charterhouse Square, with early-morning market traffic to allow for.

Define the packing work before move day

Walk through the property and list the rooms and belongings that need packing. Separate fragile items, artwork, electronics and unusually shaped pieces so their handling can be discussed. Identify items you plan to pack yourself and belongings that should remain unpacked or travel separately.

Ask for the material type, quantities, delivery or collection arrangements and charges to be confirmed in writing, and whether any packing labour is being priced separately. Material charges do not by themselves describe the cost of a packing service.

Share both postcodes, the preferred date and access details, then ask for the packing tasks, materials, exclusions and charges to be set out in writing. Keep essential documents, medication and items you need immediately accessible and outside the packed inventory.

In EC2 that plays out against Liverpool Street's own streets: the district notes on this page record the stock and access that shape the plan, from Barbican, Liverpool Street, Moorgate to the streets at the district's edge.

Packing scope to agree

  • Rooms and items to be packed
  • Fragile, valuable or unusual belongings to discuss
  • Items you will pack yourself or keep accessible
  • Material type, quantities and charges confirmed in writing
  • Packing labour, date and charges confirmed separately

Choose full or selected packing

Walk through the property and mark which rooms or categories need help. Separate fragile items, artwork, electronics and belongings you will pack yourself so the requested work can be described precisely.

Keep essential belongings accessible

Set aside documents, medication, keys, chargers and items needed immediately after arrival. Mark anything that must not be packed or transported with the general household inventory.

Order materials against a real count

Estimate box quantities, identify wrap requirements and count tape rolls. Confirm material quantities, charges and the supply arrangement; material charges are separate from any packing labour.

Best house removal company around. The team at Vano Removals was punctual, hard-working, and handled our furniture with great care. If you need reliable, stress-free local movers or packing services, I highly recommend them.

Vano Removals moved our 2-bed flat from Croydon to Sutton last week. The two-man crew arrived on time, wrapped the sofa and TV properly, and finished quicker than I expected. Nothing was damaged. Booking was simple and the final price matched the written quote. Would use them again.
