Smithfield market virgin

I could do with some expert knowledge

I’m delivering to there in the morning,
i can get down there tonight about 7pm.
Can i park outside the customer, and put my card in at 4?
?or will i be an obstruction when the market opens at 3?

where else could i park if i cant park there, and just a short hop in the morning.

Will there be any problems with the nightime driving restrictions
And i need a route to get out to craford in the morning

i have never been but im sure i seen a video by switch once and he tipped there n parked over night im sure he said something like if your parking up drop the trailer n pull forward otherwise you will get blocked in i hope this is some help for you

there is parking bays down backside of market were you can park but like said in last post mind you dont get blocked in but if your away at 4 you will be ok.or try get tipped tonight you never no gud luck

Over black friars bridge then A2 straight out or south circ me thinks ! Your get tipped tonight too just depends who you got good luck mate

are they open at 9pm then then?

thats when i can get there by

ive got peter thompson poultry

i think that is market hours open 3am i only done hanging in always tip at night and gone last time i went out crayford way was back to a13 woolich ferry if i remember right it was a long time ago hope it helps

I belive the best way to go is out of Smithfield market
up to King cross then pick up London ring road .Then pick
up the A13.Then you can use either Blackwall tunnel or Dartford river crossing .
Don’t use Woolwich ferry part of London night time control plus it don’t run in the night :laughing: :laughing:

Decisions lol
I don’t know wheather to go and see if its open.and risk mot getting parked if its closed

OR have 9 off and get there after 5 am

No1 don’t go black friars you’ll get a ticket in the post.
No2 most of the market opens at 9pm but not poultry.
No3 you can park near enough right outside poultry entrance. Note. Noisy and not a great place to sleep.

There is an easy route out to a13 via commercial road. Ask in the market they will put you straight. From a13 it’s straightforward.

Ferraris diner is still a kin cheap gammon & chips and open all night. Have fun.

Peter Thompson don’t open till 3. If you do park overnight don’t park under the canopies otherwise you’d cause chaos when the vans arrive at one. Best bet is to park on Charterhouse Street pointing down the hill and like someone said pull the pin and drive forward a bit.

I have outside london, and will head in at 5am

Loooking on the london control website, the approved route dosn’t even take me down the A1

what a joke

when i was going there id get to the market at about 2am and the poultry was open then i used to do 4 drops in the market but be careful as the van drivers will park anywhere !

A thankyou for the replies

I decided to have my 9 off on london gateway. and i headed in when my 9 off was up

found it ok, but wouldn’t want it again for a long time
