Gwendolen's cross-country move from Cottenham to St Philips was a proper long-haul job. Haidar loaded a sofa, dining table, bed frames, and electric bicycle into the Transit, then spent seven and a half hours on the motorway to get everything delivered into Lawrence Hill by late evening. It was a full day on the road, but Gwendolen left a five-star review saying Haidar went above and beyond to make the move smooth, exactly what you need when you're stressed about moving across counties.
Our customer's move into St Philips storage went smoothly when Dominic collected ten boxes and a couple of bags from student accommodation in Hotwells and Harbourside. The load took 45 minutes, and the short drive across to the storage facility in Lawrence Hill wrapped up by mid-afternoon. Everything was ready to go when Dominic arrived, so the whole job stayed on track without any holdups.
Local drivers across every neighbourhood
St Philips lies just east of Bristol city centre, a historically industrial area undergoing significant regeneration. The area features converted warehouses, new apartment developments, and remaining commercial premises alongside emerging residential streets. Young professionals and investors choose St Philips for its proximity to Temple Meads, ongoing development, and relative affordability.
Whether you’re moving into a warehouse conversion on Avon Street or relocating from a new-build apartment, our drivers handle moves of all sizes. St Philips’ mix of old industrial buildings and modern developments presents varied access situations. Experienced drivers understand how to navigate loading bays, secure parking, and the area’s evolving streetscape.
Residents moving from St Philips often look to established areas across Bristol. The nearby area of Easton attracts those seeking a stronger community feel with independent shops and cafes. Moves to Totterdown are popular for buyers wanting Victorian terraces and city views. For those staying central, Southville provides a vibrant neighbourhood atmosphere south of the river. The characterful streets of Bedminster draw moves from St Philips residents wanting more established surroundings. Some move to Redland for its leafy Victorian streets when seeking a complete change of scene. St Philips’ position adjacent to Temple Meads makes it convenient for rail commuters. Properties along Avon Street, Albert Road, and around the developing Temple Quarter see ongoing turnover as the area transforms. The proximity to the Arena and planned Temple Quarter developments continues to attract interest, while existing warehouse conversions offer unique living spaces.
Our drivers cover the whole of Bristol and surrounding areas, from regenerating quarters to established suburbs. Whether your move stays local or takes you further afield, we’re ready to help. Here are some other areas we operate in around Bristol.
