Brighton postcode areas
- BN
The BN postcode area covers Brighton and Hove plus much of Sussex, including Worthing, Shoreham-by-Sea, Lewes and Eastbourne.
Parking for the removal van
Much of central Brighton and Hove is in controlled parking zones, so a suspended bay or a permit for the van is often needed. Ask Brighton & Hove City Council early.

Planning a move in Brighton
Parking zones
Controlled parking zones cover much of the city centre and the streets around it. Check the zone's hours on the street signs before you plan the van's arrival.
Seafront flats
Regency and Victorian buildings along the seafront are often split into flats over several floors, and many have no lift. Put the floor and stairs in your inventory.
Steep streets
In many parts of the city, streets climb steeply away from the seafront. Tell your mover about slopes and steps at both ends.

Do I need a parking suspension in Brighton?

No. Worthing and Shoreham are in West Sussex, and Lewes and Eastbourne are in East Sussex, each with its own county council looking after roads.
