Film & TV Production Transport in London
Every Borough. ULEZ Compliant. One Call Sheet.
From Soho production offices to location shoots in Greenwich and unit bases in Canary Wharf, Film Unit Car moves cast, crew and equipment across every London borough - in a fleet that's already compliant with the capital's emission and congestion rules, driven by people who know the city's production geography.
London Isn't One Postcode - It's a Logistics Puzzle
A London shoot day can move a unit from a Soho production office to a Greenwich location, a Canary Wharf corporate interior and a Heathrow collection, all before wrap - and every one of those legs sits inside different parking rules, loading restrictions and traffic patterns.
The whole of Greater London has sat inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone since its 2023 expansion, and the separate Congestion Charge still applies across central London on weekdays. Neither is a surprise to us: our fleet is compliant, and any charge your route crosses is already built into your quote.
What actually slows a production down isn't the zones themselves - it's a driver who doesn't know that a Soho street has a loading ban until 7pm, or that the fastest way out of Docklands at wrap avoids the Blackwall Tunnel queue. We brief every driver on the day's specific route, not just the postcode.
Every Production Area We Know, From Soho To Stratford
Soho & the West End
Production offices, post houses, agencies and commissioner meetings packed into narrow Zone 1 streets with tight loading bay windows - we schedule around them, not against them.
Central London
Mayfair, Marylebone, Fitzrovia and the South Bank - discreet cast movement through high-footfall streets, hotel forecourts and suspended-bay drop-offs for permitted shoots.
West London
Ealing Studios, Garden Studios and White City, with direct A40/M4 runs out to Heathrow and the Pinewood-Shepperton studio belt.
East London
Three Mills Studios, Hackney Wick and Stratford, with London City Airport minutes away for cast and executive collections.
North London
Camden, Islington and Alexandra Palace locations, positioned for fast A1/M1 runs to the Elstree and Leavesden studio belt in Hertfordshire.
South London
Greenwich, Clapham and Peckham location work, with A3/A23 access toward Gatwick and the Surrey studio corridor.
Canary Wharf
Glass-and-steel backdrops favoured for commercials and corporate shoots, with car park unit bases and DLR-adjacent crew logistics.
Greater London
From Havering to Hillingdon and Bromley to Barnet - every outer borough covered on the same call sheet as a Zone 1 unit.

How We Move Productions Through London
Every London booking starts with the route, not the postcode. We check what's running that day - a closure around a permitted shoot, a suspended bay for your own unit, roadworks on the North or South Circular - and brief drivers accordingly, so nobody is finding out about a diversion on the move.
Our fleet runs ULEZ compliant across every vehicle class, and where a route crosses the central London Congestion Charge zone on a weekday, that cost is already folded into your quote - never an invoice surprise after wrap.
For river crossings, that means knowing when the Blackwall Tunnel is the wrong call and the Rotherhithe or a bridge further west saves twenty minutes - small routing decisions that add up to keeping a tight unit base schedule on time.
