A local driver who knows Old Bexley's High Street, the station off Station Approach, Hall Place by the Cray and the cottages along the old village.
Bexley Village, or Old Bexley, is the historic core the whole borough takes its name from, a genuine village feel in DA5 where the River Cray winds past the old High Street. It keeps a more characterful, low-rise look than the surrounding suburbs: a parish church, pubs, independent shops and period cottages cluster around the High Street, while the Tudor mansion of Hall Place and its formal gardens sit just to the north by the Cray. Bexley station, on the Sidcup loop line, links it to Charing Cross and Cannon Street.
The moves here suit the older fabric: a cottage cleared off the High Street, a family house moved on the streets towards Blendon, a sofa carried from a period conversion near the church, or a downsizing move from a larger detached home. One vetted driver runs the whole job, your belongings are covered by goods-in-transit insurance, and our Google rating stands at 5.0. The rate stays the same across this quiet corner of DA5: £30 per hour plus £1.50 per mile, a £50 minimum and no hidden fees.
The village core is the access consideration. Bexley High Street is narrow, period and busy with passing traffic and the river bridge, with limited stopping, so for properties along it we plan the nearest legal kerb and hand-carry from there. The connecting routes, Hurst Road, North Cray Road and Parkhill Road, carry steadier traffic, and the residential turnings off them generally offer easier on-street parking than the High Street itself.
Many of the village homes are older, with tighter frontages and the odd shared access, so we work out the closest stopping point before we arrive. There's no Congestion Charge here, and although Bexley Village sits inside the Greater London ULEZ, our vans are fully ULEZ-compliant, so no emission surcharge applies to your move. Where a cottage sits right on the High Street or back from the road, we'll plan the carry and timing in advance. Just tell us the address and floor when you book.
Bexley Village is the borough's most varied housing in a small space: period cottages and Victorian houses around the High Street, some divided into characterful conversions, alongside larger detached and semi-detached family homes on the streets towards Blendon and Old Bexley. The older properties can mean narrow stairs, low doorways and tight turns, while the family houses add volume and loft storage.
We tailor the method to the property: dismantling beds and wardrobes and hand-balling sofas round tight period landings in the cottages, and bringing extra hands for the fuller family houses. Everything is wrapped in blankets and straps as standard, with particular care for period paintwork and original features. Flag the property type, any stairs and a rough inventory when you book and we'll size the job and the time properly.
