Headingley and Hyde Park at tenancy changeover
The shared houses of Hyde Park, Headingley, Woodhouse and Burley tend to turn over in the same few weeks of summer, when outgoing and incoming tenants are both after the same kerb space. Many of these streets have permit parking and are tightly parked at the best of times. An early start helps most: the van leaves Bradford at 8am and can be outside before 9, and a load finished by late morning avoids the worst of it.
A house share rarely goes to one place, and each housemate books their own van, because a booking carries one customer's things only. If your own things are split, some to a new house and some home, both drops go on one quote. Going home for the summer is a straight run to wherever home is, with the driver doing the loading at both ends. Whoever makes the booking, just say who will be at each end to hand over and take in the boxes.
Organising a Leeds student move around the changeover
- Leaving a city-centre block? Book the lift and the loading-bay slot with the building first, then send the time
- Leaving a Hyde Park or Headingley house: send the tenancy end date, because many leases on those streets end around 30 June
- Halls often give out move-out times; send yours when booking
- Headingley Stadium match days fill the streets around St Michael's Lane, so check the fixtures before picking a date
- A Burley or Woodhouse terrace may have permit bays outside, so tell us what the signs allow before the day

Pricing a Leeds student move by load and time
The amount going, the number of drop-offs and the distance set the fixed price, so one room costs far less than a whole house. See how we quote for the full breakdown.
Student Removals in Leeds: your questions
When should I book for the Leeds summer changeover?
As soon as you know the date. Short-notice moves depend on the diary having a gap, and the weeks when Headingley and Hyde Park tenancies end fill first.
Do you have storage for the summer?
No, the business has nowhere to keep your things. A run to your own self-storage unit before you go home, and another to bring everything back when term starts, can be booked.
I am moving out of halls into a house in the same week. Can that be one job?
Yes, if the dates line up. The van loads at halls in your allocated move-out slot and unloads at the house, so nothing has to be kept anywhere in between. Send both addresses and the times you have been given.
Can my housemates' rooms go on the same run as mine?
No. The van is dedicated to one customer's move, so each housemate books separately. If your own things go to two addresses, each drop is listed in the quote and the order is agreed before the day.
