A local driver who knows Coombe's huge gated detached houses, the private estate roads off Warren Road and the hill between Kingston and Wimbledon.
Coombe is the most exclusive corner of the Royal Borough, a leafy hilltop enclave straddling KT2 and KT3 between Kingston and Wimbledon Common. It's defined by its housing: vast gated detached mansions set well back behind walls and electric gates, many on private estate roads like Warren Road and Coombe Hill Road, with golf courses, mature woodland and some of the largest homes in south-west London. This is old-money, big-plot territory, quiet, green and discreet, where moves are larger, higher-value and need careful handling, and where access runs through gates and long drives rather than the open kerb.
The moves reflect that: a downsize from a Coombe mansion, a high-value collection from a gated estate off Warren Road, careful handling of antique and bulky furniture, or a family relocating within the hill towards New Malden. One vetted driver handles the whole job with care, your belongings are covered by goods-in-transit insurance throughout, and our Google rating stands at a full 5.0. The rate stays the same however grand the address, across both KT2 and KT3: £30 per hour plus £1.50 per mile, a £50 minimum and no hidden fees.
Coombe's access is all about gates and drives. Many homes here sit behind electric gates on private estate roads such as Warren Road, Coombe Hill Road and George Road, with long gravel driveways set well back from the kerb, which means a longer carry from van to door. The main routes, Coombe Lane West and the A3 approaches, carry fast traffic, and the hill itself adds a gradient to factor into the carry.
Most properties have ample private off-street parking, so once we're through the gates loading is usually straightforward, but we confirm gate access and any concierge or housekeeper arrangements before the day. For estate-road permits or any private-road access notes, just let us know in advance. There's no Congestion Charge out here, and although Coombe sits within the Greater London ULEZ, our vans are fully ULEZ-compliant, so no emission surcharge applies. Tell us the gate details, the drive length and the inventory when you book and we'll plan the job properly.
Coombe is dominated by large gated detached houses, substantial period and modern mansions on generous plots, often with multiple floors, cellars, annexes and outbuildings. These are high-volume, high-value moves with heavy and often antique furniture, grand pianos, and fragile pieces that demand extra care. There are also some smaller detached homes and a handful of apartments on the fringes towards Kingston and New Malden.
For mansion moves we bring extra hands, dismantle beds, wardrobes and large dining furniture, and wrap everything thoroughly in blankets and protective covers, paying particular attention to the long carry from a set-back front door to the van. We protect floors and finishes as standard. Flag the property size, any antiques or pianos, and the gate and drive layout when you book so we size the time and team correctly.
The Coombe moves we handle most, all on the same fixed rate and careful handling.
