Home removals in Soho, done properly.
Moving a flat above a Soho restaurant. We've done it. Tight stairs, narrow streets, no problem.
Local knowledge
Soho — the area, up close
Soho is a dense, 24-hour neighbourhood of Georgian townhouses, purpose-built flats and new-build apartments above restaurants, bars and shops. Carnaby Street, Old Compton Street and Dean Street are its core, with a mix of historic housing and modern conversions. Soho's energy is non-stop, and moves here require precision timing.
Soho's parking is controlled by Westminster's Zone A CPZ, with red routes on Oxford Street and Charing Cross Road. Most streets have permit-only or pay-by-phone bays, and loading often means double-parking with a permit. We plan Soho moves around the strict parking hours to avoid fines.
We're based in SE8 Deptford, about 5.5 miles from Soho, so we know the traffic patterns around Oxford Street and Tottenham Court Road. We've done multiple moves in Soho's tight streets and above restaurants — short notice is fine, and we carry £20,000 goods in transit insurance.

Why us
Why choose Frankieee in Soho
Parking sorted before we arrive
Soho has permit zones and red route restrictions. We check loading rules and arrange suspension permits before move day — you don't have to chase it.
Built for Soho's property mix
Georgian townhouses and purpose-built flats make up most of the moves here. Different access, different carry distances — we've done both many times.
Close base, on-time start
SE8 Deptford to Soho is about 5.5 miles. We know the route. We're rarely late.
We plan for what others miss
Many Soho flats are above commercial premises with narrow staircases and no lift access. We flag these at quote stage — not on the morning of the move.

Parking & access
Soho lies in Westminster's Zone A CPZ, with controlled parking Monday to Friday 8:30am–6:30pm and Saturday 8:30am–1:30pm. Most streets are pay-by-phone or permit-only. Red routes on Oxford Street and Charing Cross Road restrict stopping at any time. Permit suspensions need 5 working days' notice.
We advise on parking suspensions as part of every quote — ask us when you book.
Common challenges
Many Soho flats are above commercial premises with narrow staircases and no lift access. Georgian townhouses often have steep internal stairs and limited pavement space for loading. Parking is extremely tight, especially on Dean Street and Old Compton Street, where double-parking is almost unavoidable.
Tell us the specifics when you get a quote — we'll flag anything we need to plan for.
Georgian townhouses
Tall, narrow, and multi-storey — staircases are the main challenge. Plan for multiple carries.
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.
basement flats
External steps down, tight entry angles, and no direct van access to the front door.
