Removals in Long Lee
Long Lee is the residential area east of Keighley centre, up the hill from the valley and close to Thwaites Brow and Parkwood. From 28 Parkwood St it is a short climb, often only a few minutes, which does not make the carry simple. Streets rise, some end in turning heads, and older terraces have doors straight off a narrow pavement. Housing is a mix of stone terraces, semis and later family houses. Long Lee Primary School is on Cherry Tree Rise, and that road is busy at drop-off and pick-up. A van that arrives in the middle of it will not find the gap you saw on a Sunday. The area is residential rather than a shopping centre, so the landmarks are the school, the recreation ground and the roads back down toward Park Lane and the town. Postcodes are BD21. Bradford Council handles council tax and bins. Insurance is provided. Ask us what is covered when you book. Because we are based on Parkwood Street, a Long Lee move is local in distance and still needs a proper plan for the hill. Call 01535321350 if the only parking is a short bay. Early starts can be planned before the school run. Weekends can be planned when the street is full of residents' cars during the week.

Moving in Long Lee: common questions
Is Long Lee close to your base?
Yes. Parkwood Street is the next hillside. The quote is still about the house, the stair and where the van waits.
Should I avoid the school run?
If the house is near Cherry Tree Rise, yes. Tell us and we can plan around it.
Are postcodes BD21?
Long Lee addresses are BD21. Send the full postcode so we are not quoting Thwaites Brow or the town centre by mistake.
