Permit Zones, CPZs & Narrow Roads
Much of NW8 is controlled parking — permit zones, tight terraced streets around St John’s Wood, cars both sides. Our trucks are sized for exactly this, and drivers who work NW8 and NW7 and NW9 every week know which corners a flatbed can actually take.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you collect my import from the docks or a compound?
Yes. We collect imports from ports and compounds and deliver them to your address in NW8, running or not, on a flatbed. In NW8 specifically, ask the driver anything else when they call with the ETA.
Will import cars in NW8 cost me more than elsewhere in London?
From £60 for a standard callout in NW8, quoted up front over the phone. No callout fee for the quote itself.
How long until a driver reaches NW8?
Typically around 30–60 minutes. Because NW8 shares a dispatch patch with NW7, the nearest driver is often already close by.
Do parking restrictions in NW8 affect the callout?
Rarely. A recovery in progress is exactly that — we position legally, work quickly, and handle the CPZ realities of St John’s Wood as part of the job, not as your problem.
