Truro, South West • England
Truro is Cornwall's only city, set where the A39 and A390 meet in the middle of the county. Crews on jobs across Cornwall often base here because it has the shops, the rail station and the road links in one place. KrewBase houses working crews in whole serviced properties around the TR postcode area: bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in, proper parking, and one monthly invoice that goes straight to your office.
Truro mixes Georgian streets around the cathedral with post-war estates and a ring of newer developments at places like Malpas and Highertown. For crews we lean towards the estates and newer closes: bigger rooms, driveways, easier van parking than the old town's terraced streets. Every house we shortlist is walked through first — parking measured, broadband speed-tested, bathrooms counted — so what arrives on your shortlist is genuinely workable.
Truro is the county's administrative and healthcare centre, so there is steady work in NHS facilities, offices and schools, plus the housing developments growing on the city's edges and along the A39 corridor. Trades also use Truro as a base for jobs further west and along the south coast. We keep the talk generic deliberately — what matters to us is your site postcode and crew size, so the house fits the job.
Truro station is the rail hub of Cornwall, with trains towards Falmouth, St Austell and beyond. On the roads, the A39 runs north-west towards Redruth and Camborne, the A390 heads east to St Austell, and the A3075 links towards Newquay. Tell us the site location and we shortlist by tested drive time — a Truro address can mean a ten-minute run to some jobs and a proper cross-county commute to others.
Your crew gets the whole house or flat — kitchen, sitting room, no sharing with strangers. Council tax, energy, water and broadband stay in our name; your crew just moves in. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, parking is checked against the vehicles you'll bring, and crews of five or more get two bathrooms. Weekly clean and fresh linen are included, and any maintenance is our phone call to make. One monthly invoice, card payment, no booking fees, no set-up for your crew to do.
Send us the requirement — town, dates, headcount, vehicles and any shift pattern we should know about. We come back within 2 hours with a shortlist from property we already hold, not a search we have just started. You pick, we confirm, the crew moves in, and we stay on it for the length of the job. One monthly invoice, card payment for limited companies, no booking fees.
Usually within two hours of getting your site postcode, crew size and start date. We send three to five whole properties in Truro and the surrounding villages, with parking, Wi-Fi speeds and bathroom counts already verified, so you're choosing between real options rather than listings.
Yes. We cover the villages around the city — Malpas, Highertown, Threemilestone, towards Playing Place and Carnon Downs — and can push towards Redruth, Falmouth or St Austell if your site sits that way. The shortlist follows the drive time, not a rigid map.
We speed-test broadband at every property before check-in and record the result, because a crew streaming, uploading site photos and on video calls at 6am needs more than a basic line. If a Truro property can't hold a working connection, it doesn't make your shortlist.
One monthly invoice covers rent, bills, Wi-Fi, the weekly clean and linen — your accounts team settles it paid by card and the crew never handles money. There are no booking fees and no deposits to chase at the end of the job.
Yes. Crew houses are self-contained and the whole property is yours, so night-shift crews in Truro come and go as the rota demands. We just ask for a heads-up so cleans are scheduled around sleeping crews, and we brief the cleaner accordingly.
Three things get you a quote: the site postcode, how many people are in the crew, and when you're starting. It also helps to know how many vehicles need parking and whether anyone wants a desk space for evening paperwork. With those details we can normally price and shortlist in a single reply.
