Inside the W8 District
The W8 district takes in Kensington, sitting within Kensington and Chelsea. It borders W7, W9 and W10, all of which we cover with the same drivers — so if you’re right on a district boundary, it makes no difference to your ETA.
Short Distance in W8: What You Get
What turns up in W8 matters: soft straps and careful, low-angle loading built for delicate or high-value vehicles. Standard on every callout:
- Quick local moves
- Home, garage & storage transfers
- Competitive short-haul pricing
- Same-day availability
- Running or non-runner
Working Inner-London Streets
Much of W8 is controlled parking — permit zones, tight terraced streets around Kensington, cars both sides. Our trucks are sized for exactly this, and drivers who work W8 and W7 and W9 every week know which corners a flatbed can actually take.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you do short local car moves?
Yes. We handle short-distance moves within W8 — between your home, garage, storage unit or dealer — often the same day. That applies exactly the same around Kensington as anywhere else we cover.
What does short distance cost in W8?
W8 jobs start from £60. The final price depends on the vehicle and exactly where in the district you are — call 07538 716531 and you’ll have a firm figure before anyone is dispatched.
How long until a driver reaches W8?
Yes — we run 24/7, and night jobs in W8 are often quicker than daytime because the roads are clear. Expect roughly 30–60 minutes.
My car is in a resident permit bay in W8 — is that a problem?
Not at all. Most of our W8 work happens on permit-controlled residential streets. The truck positions once, loads, and moves off — and if it’s your own bay outside your home, the whole job can be done from there.
