International Removals from Tottenham
Stadium event-day closures on the High Road and the notice Haringey wants
A few short questions. Nothing is sent until you check and confirm.
Does a match or event day affect a Tottenham move?
Yes, and it can stop a lorry reaching the street. Haringey says “When there is a football match or event at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, there may be extra parking controls and some road closures.” The trigger is not only football: the council lists events with more than 10,000 attendees, which brings concerts into the calendar.
The closures are phased and named. The council says “2 hours before any match or event, traffic marshals will close the northern section of the High Road from White Hart Lane to Bromley Road.” It also says “Park Lane will also be closed three hours before an event and all parking bays on Worcester Avenue and Park Lane will be suspended during event days.”
Getting in is by permit check. “Residents and businesses who want vehicular access to their properties will need to enter via a vehicle permit check point.” The page adds “Visitors of residents will need to arrive and park before road closures come into effect.” A removal crew is likely to be treated as visitors, so the lorry should be in place before the closure starts, or the date should avoid event days. The council holds the fixture list.
What does Haringey ask for a parking bay?
Removals are named as a reason. Haringey’s suspensions page lists removals among the reasons for a bay suspension, with building works, filming, utility works, tree maintenance and funerals. The notice is “You must apply at least 2 weeks before you want the suspension to start.” and the cost is “The daily fee is £80 per single car space, plus an administration fee of £280.” That is at least £360 in council charges for a single space on a single day.
Suspensions “only apply during the hours of the controlled parking zone (CPZ) the parking bay is in” and “can last up to 6 months”. Haringey does not suspend red routes: “For a red route suspension contact Transport for London.” You “must have an account and apply online”. Cancelling costs £75 once the application is processed and £145 once the boards are up, so book once the date is firm. Check the council’s own parking page for the current figures.
Tottenham streets and what to ask the firm
Ask the removal firm to check three things against the council's current event page: whether your street is on the High Road, Park Lane or Worcester Avenue; whether the collection date is an event day; and which permit check point the crew would use.
Emission zone charges apply in Haringey as in every London borough (see the London removals page), and the London parking lookup says who decides on a red route. Islington is the neighbouring stadium borough, with its own match day zones, and the London guide lists the rest.
