London's working vans start out from Park Royal, the wholesale markets and yards in every borough. Should a van tyre give out, a replacement with the proper load rating goes on right where it is parked.
Vans keep London supplied. Park Royal, spread across Brent and Ealing beside the A40 and A406, is the capital's biggest industriM1 area; Staples Corner sits where the M1 meets the North Circular; Brimsdown in Enfield, Purley Way in Croydon and the yards at Beckton and Dagenham Dock serve other corners. Traders load up at New Covent Garden Market in Nine Elms and New Spitalfields at Leyton. A tyre failing on any of those routes stops a van with deliveries booked.
Give us the full sidewall line: size, the C or reinforced marking, the two load numbers most van tyres carry, and the speed letter. The tyre brought out meets or exceeds every one; a car tyre that fits the rim is not substituted. Say where the van is, whether a unit yard, a loading bay or a residential street, and whether access needs a gate code. You agree the price on that call and settle up once the tyre is on.
Industrial units at Park Royal, Staples Corner, Brimsdown and Purley Way, market yards with the operator's consent, and legal loading or permit bays. Red routes, bus lanes and motorways are out; leave the M1, M4 or M25 at the next junction first.

About van tyre fitting nationwide → · Van tyre fitting on the London page
London adds its own conditions. The ULEZ covers vans in all 32 boroughs and the Congestion Charge applies in the centre, so a van that would pay either should have its tyre sorted in situ rather than be driven to a depot. A laden van needs a strong jack and flat, hard ground: a yard at Park Royal or Brimsdown beats a cambered street. Electric delivery vans are heavy, so their tyres need the right load rating, and the label's noise class matters for quiet running.
Keep the London van on its round. Call with the load-rated size and where it is parked.
