Can we still move house into a rental on Friday?

We are currently packed up ready to move house on the 27th of March from one rental to another. We have a hire van booked. Is this still classed as essential travel? Are we still able to move and be within the law?

    Yes, I would imagine this is essential travel, what's the alternative, be homeless.

    Sounds essential to me. 
    You might have trouble getting the van hire so plan head for that in but you are always told to make sure you avoid contact with others (you don't live with) as much as you can.
