Student Moves in London: Smart, Stress-Free Relocations

By Crown Removal – London, UK

Moving as a student in London can be chaotic: limited help, shared stairwells, last-minute packing, and the pressure to clear out fast. Whether it’s your first year or your final term, Crown Removal makes student moves simple — with affordable, flexible support across Greater London.

What Makes Student Moves Tricky

  • Short notice timings. End-of-term move-out windows can be tight — especially if halls have fixed checkouts.
  • No car, no problem. If you don’t drive or have help, a man with a van fills the gap easily.
  • Shared spaces & stairwells. Many student flats in areas like Camden or Golders Green don’t have lifts or easy access.
  • Storage gaps. Need to leave London between terms? We can collect, store, and redeliver when you return.

What We Offer Students

  • Single-room removals. No minimum volume — ideal for packing a few boxes, a suitcase, and a bike.
  • Help with packing. We supply boxes, tape, eco crates and can help wrap and pack if needed.
  • Flexible dates and times. Evening or weekend slots available around your exam schedule.
  • Affordable options. Competitive rates for short journeys, part-loads, and repeat customers.
Pro tip: Avoid peak move-out hours by booking early. We recommend reserving your slot at least two weeks in advance during summer.

Common Destinations We Cover

  • Halls & student villages: King’s Residences, UCL, LSE, Goldsmiths, and Roehampton accommodation
  • Private rentals: Flatshares around Clapham, Bethnal Green, Shepherd’s Bush and Elephant & Castle
  • Inter-city moves: Heading home to Manchester, Birmingham or Brighton? We do UK-wide student moves too.
