Why Yeadon customers book us
The centre is the tight part. High Street, Kirk Lane and Ivegate are narrow, steep and parked on both sides, with almost nowhere to stand a van carrying a 3.4 metre load, so we work a short stop with the route walked first and the trolley already out. Picking which direction to approach from, so the carry runs downhill rather than up, saves more time on a terrace move than any amount of hurrying.
Away from the top it opens up. Larkfield and Rufford Park are interwar semis, New Scarborough, Silverdale and Yeadon Banks are a mix of terrace and estate housing, and out towards Rawdon there are detached houses and bungalows with room to turn a long van round. The lanes dropping into Nether Yeadon and Little London on the Aire-facing slope are the exception: narrow, steep and tight-turning, so we check the approach beforehand.
Leeds Bradford Airport is immediately east of the town and it sets the rhythm of the place. Airline, airport and freight staff take a large share of the rentals and starter homes, which means short-notice moves at odd hours, and we run 8am to 8pm seven days a week to fit around shifts. New Road Side and Harrogate Road both clog up around the Rawdon junctions at shift change and the school run, so start times get chosen with care.

Frequently asked questions: man with a van in Yeadon
Our terrace is on a slope with steps up to the door — how do you manage that?
The same way we do it every week. We walk the route first, chock the wheels, get the trolley out for the flat stretch and hand-carry the steps, and we park so the heavy items travel downhill to the van rather than up. Blankets and straps are carried as standard, and a second pair of hands can be arranged.
When is the best time to book around the airport traffic?
Mid-morning or early afternoon, usually. New Road Side and Harrogate Road both back up around the Rawdon junctions at shift change and the school run, and that is dead time on a move. We are out 8am to 8pm every day, so there is normally a slot that misses the worst of it.
Can a long wheelbase van get down into Nether Yeadon or Little London?
Often, but not always to the door. Those lanes are narrow and steep with tight turns and very little room to swing a long van round. Give us the street when you book and we will check the approach, and if it is too tight we stop at the top and carry the last bit rather than get stuck.
