Moving in Orpington: Local Knowledge
Orpington divides naturally into distinct areas that each present their own logistics for removals. BR5 covers the main town centre around Orpington High Street and the Nugent Shopping Park, the Petts Wood residential area to the north with its wide tree-lined streets of inter-war semis, St Mary Cray with its mix of industrial and residential streets along the Cray Valley, and the Ramsden and Goddington estates to the south east of the town.
Orpington falls within the London Borough of Bromley, the largest London borough by area. BR6 extends southward into more rural territory, covering Farnborough village and its surrounding roads, Green Street Green, Chelsfield village and the farmland of Downe and Biggin Hill borders. Properties in the BR6 villages can have restricted access and limited turning space, so we always assess routes in advance for larger moves and use appropriate vehicle sizes where needed.
Orpington is a popular destination for London families moving out of inner city areas and for Kent commuters accessing central London via the fast rail service. We regularly carry out moves both directions, London to Orpington and Orpington back into London and know the common routes and areas on both ends well.
