The charming residential area of Barnsbury, for instance, offers convenient access to the City of London and the West End as well as being close to King’s Cross, of course.

The overground network can be accessed via the stations at Upper Holloway and the Caledonian Road, for example. Hop on a Victoria Line service on the tube from Highbury & Islington or take the Northern Line from Angel or Archway. The Piccadilly Line also has multiple stops in the borough.
Islington also has some great shops, not just the chain stores but independent retail outlets. Head to the area around Charlton Place or Islington Green for some of the best ones. Overall, we like Islington because:

Book Your Parking in Advance
Parking restrictions come into force in nearly every residential street in Islington. The borough is well-known for its residential parking bays and it may not always be possible to guarantee a spot close to your home for loading or unloading. Without somewhere close by to park, the length of your move can increase dramatically, pushing the price up. That’s why we recommend booking a parking bay suspension with the council in advance of your move.

Islington Removals FAQs
We charge a low rate for clients who book and Islington man and van service. One man and a van in Islington costs £45 per hour plus VAT. If you can cope with just one man, then this will suffice. Most two bedroom properties will need two men and a van so that the job does not overrun, however. At Volition Removals, the competitive fee for this is £60 per hour plus VAT for weekday bookings.
This depends on your personal circumstances. If you are downsizing, then placing items you will not immediately require makes sense so you avoid unnecessary clutter. If you are splitting up with your partner, then a storage facility will often make sense so you can go through your belongings later, once you have had a chance to find your feet.
Yes it should. If you hire a van and attempt to do your move yourself, then you won’t have public liability insurance. Commonly, your household insurance won’t cover breakages or theft during a move, either. With Volition Removals, this cover comes as standard.
We are the ideal removals company to choose for any Islington move. However, you do not have to take our word for it. Peruse our many glowing testimonials and online reviews and we think you’ll find that they tell their own story.
Make sure the parking bay you have suspended is clear and contact the council if not. Unplug electrical items and give your fridge a chance to defrost. Disconnect plumbed-in appliances like washing machines and mark up your moving boxes with the rooms you will want them placed in when you arrive at your new home.
