Local knowledge
Old Kent Road — the area, up close
Old Kent Road is a long, busy artery running through Southwark, lined with Victorian terraced houses, mansion conversion flats, and newer builds around Avondale Square and the Tiverton Estate. It's a working London road with a mix of independent shops and big-box retail like Asda and B&Q. Old Kent Road has a strong community feel despite the traffic.
Parking on Old Kent Road is the main challenge for moves. The A2 red route bans stopping along the main road, so we use side streets in CPZ zones A, B, C, or D. Many flats have narrow stairwells and small lifts, meaning furniture needs to be broken down. We always assess access before the day to avoid delays.
Frankieee Removals is based in SE8 Deptford, about 3.5 miles from Old Kent Road. We know the one-way systems and the best spots to park a Luton van. We've done dozens of moves on Old Kent Road, from first-floor flats above shops to five-bedroom terraces. Short notice is fine — we keep vans ready.

Parking & access
Old Kent Road falls under Southwark CPZ zones A, B, C, and D. The A2 is a red route with no stopping at any time. Many side streets have permit holder only parking. Permits must be suspended at least 7 days in advance for removal vans.
We advise on parking suspensions as part of every quote — ask us when you book.
Common challenges
Many flats on Old Kent Road are in mansion blocks or purpose-built estates with tight communal corridors and small lifts. The A2 red route means no direct van access for front-facing properties. Side roads are often narrow with parked cars on both sides.
Tell us the specifics when you get a quote — we'll flag anything we need to plan for.
Victorian terraced houses
Tight hallways, steep staircases, no side access — all furniture in through the front door.
mansion conversion flats
Communal corridors, shared entrances, and often lower-ground or upper floors without a lift.
purpose-built flats
Lift access typical, but long corridors and parking restrictions near the building are common.
new-build apartments
Managed buildings with booking requirements. Contact the building manager before move day.
