Settling in Brighton: areas and practical tips
Popular areas include Kemp Town and Hanover for terraced houses on steep streets, Preston Park for families, Hove for larger flats and houses, and the North Laine for city-centre living.
Brighton's city centre has controlled parking almost everywhere, and many streets are steep and narrow. Your mover may need a parking suspension from Brighton and Hove council.
What affects the price?
- Volume. More furniture and boxes means a bigger van or a second trip.
- Access. Stairs, lifts and parking at both ends add time.
- Date. Fridays, month ends and school holidays cost more.
- Extras. Packing, dismantling and storage change the quote.
- Charges. Ask about congestion, clean air or toll charges at either end.

- Ask whether the price is fixed and whether fuel is included.
