Directions from Meanwood to our Leeds base
Meanwood runs along the valley north of Woodhouse. Meanwood Road is the through route. Stone terraces, inter-war semis and newer houses sit on streets that fall towards the beck and the park. Some doors are level with the pavement. Others have steps or a slope that makes a heavy wardrobe a two-person carry.
Parking is ordinary kerbside on many streets, with cars on both sides. A van can usually stop if there is a gap, but a steep street with a tight corner is different. Tell us if the house is below the road or if the only space is further up the hill. The park car park on Green Road is for park users. We do not treat it as overflow for a house move.
The tip on Meanwood Road is useful if you are clearing a loft before we arrive. It is a separate trip, in a car or a permitted vehicle, not something we can fold into the household move as a dump run for trade waste. From our Woodhouse base the job is about a mile and a half. Insurance is provided.
See house removals and packing if you want boxes done before the day. Nearby: Chapel Allerton and Headingley. Leeds removals is based in Woodhouse.
Valley streets can be icy or just steep. We would rather carry a few metres further on a flat pavement than roll a trolley down a camber into the road. If you have a washing machine in a cellar, say so. Cellar steps in these houses are often open and narrow.
