Film & TV Production Transport in Borehamwood
Elstree & Sky Studios On The Doorstep. One Call Sheet.
From Elstree Studios and Sky Studios Elstree to Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden twenty minutes up the road, Film Unit Car moves cast, crew and equipment around the beating heart of British studio filmmaking - driven by people who know these gates, car parks and unit bases without needing directions.
Borehamwood Is Built Around Its Studios
Borehamwood isn't a production hub by accident - Elstree Studios has operated here since the 1920s, and the arrival of Sky Studios Elstree has only deepened the town's pull for cast, crew and studio-based productions. A shoot day here can mean a unit base at one studio gate, a second unit at the other, and a crew collection from a production office in between, all inside a few square miles.
None of that is complicated by London's charging zones - Borehamwood sits outside both the Ultra Low Emission Zone and the Congestion Charge area. What actually matters locally is knowing which studio gate a call sheet means, where crew parking fills up first on a big shoot day, and how to get a unit car off the A1(M) and onto a backlot access road without losing ten minutes.
We brief every driver on the specific studio and gate before the day starts, not just the Borehamwood postcode - so a Sky Studios collection and an Elstree Studios wrap on the same call sheet run as one smooth day, not two separate bookings.
Every Corner Of Borehamwood We Know
Elstree Studios & Studio Road
Home to EastEnders, Star Wars and decades of British film and TV, with gate procedures and car park logistics our drivers already know cold.
Sky Studios Elstree
One of the largest new-build studio complexes in the UK - we run cast, crew and unit moves to its stages and production offices daily.
Shenley & Aldenham
Quiet villages and green belt just outside town, used for rural location work and crew accommodation away from the studio bustle.
Radlett
A short hop from Borehamwood, with hotels, restaurants and a second rail link useful for crew staying slightly further out.
Elstree & Borehamwood Station
Direct rail into London St Pancras via Thameslink - a common pickup point for crew and cast arriving without a car.
The A1(M) & M1 Corridor
Fast, direct access south to London or north toward Luton and the M25, built around the studio's own shift patterns.
Aldenham Country Park
Open parkland and reservoir setting a few minutes from the studios, regularly used for exteriors and second unit work.
Bushey
Neighbouring town with production offices and crew housing, and an easy run to both Elstree and Watford studio bases.

How We Move Productions Through Borehamwood
A Borehamwood booking usually starts with the gate, not the postcode - which Elstree Studios entrance a call sheet means, whether Sky Studios' car park is full on a big shoot day, and what time crew parking needs to be sorted before the morning rush.
The A1(M) and M1 give fast, direct access both ways: north toward Luton Airport and St Albans, south into London in around 25-30 minutes outside peak traffic. Our fleet runs ULEZ compliant across every vehicle class, which matters the moment a Borehamwood call sheet includes a London leg.
For studio-to-studio days, that means knowing the quickest way between Elstree Studios and Sky Studios Elstree without relying on the main road through town, and having a driver who's already made that run that morning.
