Who Our Removals Service Is For

Homeowners

Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or relocating, we regularly handle full home removals in and around Roehampton. We pay close attention to protecting floors, banisters and walls, and can organise multiple trips or larger vehicles for bigger properties.

Renters

If you are moving between rented flats or houses, timing and condition reports matter. We work around key handover times, protect the property and help you leave the place as you found it to support check-out inventories and deposit returns.

Landlords

We assist landlords with end-of-tenancy clearances, part-furnished removals and quick turnaround jobs between lets. We can remove furniture to storage, rearrange layouts or clear unwanted items, always disposing of waste responsibly.

Businesses

For small businesses, shops and offices, we provide structured office removals with clear labelling and planned loading so desks, files and IT equipment arrive in a logical order at your new premises, minimising downtime.

Students

Roehampton students benefit from simple, cost-conscious moves. From a single room in halls to a shared house, we can move boxed belongings, bikes, small furniture and more, with options for term-time or end-of-year moves.

What We Can and Cannot Move

Items We Commonly Move

• Household furniture – beds, sofas, wardrobes, tables, chairs
• White goods – fridges, freezers, washing machines, cookers (properly disconnected)
• Boxes and personal effects – clothing, books, ornaments, kitchenware
• Office equipment – desks, chairs, filing cabinets, computer equipment
• Electronics – TVs, sound systems, monitors and gaming equipment
• Outdoor items – garden furniture, tools, barbecues (clean and gas-free)

Items Typically Excluded

• Live animals and pets
• Perishable food for long-distance moves
• Very high-value items such as fine art or jewellery without prior declaration
• Heavy industrial machinery outside standard manual handling limits

If you are unsure whether something can be moved, mention it during your enquiry and we will advise on safe options.

Our Step-by-Step Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with details of your move – addresses, property type, approximate inventory and your preferred date. Based on this information, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, outlining what is included. For straightforward moves, we can often quote the same day.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For larger or more complex moves, we recommend a short survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit. We look at access, parking, stairs or lifts, and special items that may need extra care. This allows us to allocate the right size vehicle, team and time, avoiding surprises on moving day.

3. Packing & Preparation

On the day – or beforehand if arranged – our team arrives with suitable packing materials. We can offer a full packing service, part-packing for fragile items, or you can self-pack and we will simply supply materials. Furniture can be dismantled where necessary, and everything is wrapped and protected for transport.

4. Loading & Transport

We load systematically, starting with larger items and clearly labelled boxes. Floors and doorways are protected as needed. Our professional team uses trolleys, straps and blankets to keep items secure in the vehicle. We then transport your belongings via the most efficient route, keeping you informed of timings.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new property, we place furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify. Items we dismantled are reassembled where agreed. We work with you to position key furniture before we leave, so you are not left dragging heavy items around after the team has gone.

Transparent Removals Pricing

We believe in clear, upfront pricing. Quotes are based on:

• Volume of goods to be moved
• Distance between addresses
• Access (stairs, lifts, parking restrictions)
• Number of movers required
• Additional services – packing, materials, dismantling/reassembly

We will explain exactly what is included before you book, so you know what you are paying for. There are no hidden call-out fees, and any potential extras (such as congestion or parking charges) are discussed in advance where they apply.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY

Hiring a professional removals team in Roehampton offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using a casual man-with-a-van:

• Trained movers who know how to lift, carry and load safely
• Correct protective equipment, blankets, straps and trolleys
• Fully insured vehicles and operations for your peace of mind
• Efficient loading that reduces the number of trips and saves time
• Reduced risk of injury to you, your helpers and your property

While DIY may appear cheaper, damage to a sofa, scratched flooring or a back injury can quickly outweigh the savings. A structured removals service gives you predictable timings and a clear point of contact.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Your belongings are important, both financially and emotionally. That is why we operate to clear, professional standards and carry appropriate cover, including:

• Goods in transit insurance – to protect your items while they are being transported
• Public liability cover – protection in case of accidental damage to third-party property
• Trained moving teams – staff instructed in safe lifting, loading, and item protection

We treat your belongings with the same care we would give our own. Any specific high-value or delicate items can be noted in advance so we can give them additional attention.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We focus on protecting both your belongings and the environment where we can:

• Use of quality blankets, wraps and straps to reduce the risk of damage
• Floor and doorway protection in both old and new properties where required
• Re-usable crates and durable packing materials where possible
• Thoughtful route planning to reduce unnecessary mileage and emissions
• Responsible disposal or recycling of unwanted items by prior arrangement

By planning carefully and using robust materials, we reduce waste and minimise the chance of breakages or damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do removals in Roehampton cost?

The cost of a removals service in Roehampton depends on the volume of items, distance between properties, access issues and any extra services such as packing or dismantling furniture. Smaller flat moves may be priced on an hourly rate, while full house or office relocations are usually quoted as a fixed price. Once we know what needs moving and when, we provide a clear written quote with no hidden extras, so you can budget with confidence before you book.

Can you handle same-day or urgent removals?

We can often accommodate urgent or same-day removals in Roehampton, particularly for smaller moves, part-loads or student rooms. Availability depends on our existing bookings and the size of your move, so it is always best to call as early as possible. If we can fit you in, we will give you a clear arrival window and confirm what we can reasonably achieve on the day, ensuring the service remains safe, controlled and properly managed.

Are my belongings insured during the move?

Yes. We operate with goods in transit insurance to protect your belongings while they are being moved, as well as public liability cover for added protection. This is not a replacement for your home contents insurance, but it provides an important additional layer of cover. We ask you to highlight any unusually high-value or fragile items when booking so we can ensure they are packed, handled and documented appropriately within the scope of our policy terms.

What is included in your removals service?

Our standard removals service includes a suitable vehicle, a professional removals team, loading, secure transport and unloading into the rooms you choose. We supply protective blankets and securing straps as standard. Optional extras include full or partial packing, provision of boxes and materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and disposal of agreed unwanted items. When we quote, we set out exactly what is included so there is no confusion about what will happen on moving day.

What is the difference between removals and a basic man-and-van?

A basic man-and-van service often provides only transport and a driver, with limited help, equipment or insurance. A structured removals service like ours includes a trained team, proper planning, protective materials, and appropriate insurance. We assess access, allocate the right number of movers, and manage your move from start to finish. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and unexpected costs, particularly for larger properties, families, offices or anyone with fragile or heavy items to move.

How far in advance should I book my removal?

We recommend booking your removal as soon as you have a confirmed moving date, particularly if you are moving at month-end or on a Friday, when demand is usually highest. For most people, this is around two to four weeks in advance. However, we understand dates can change, so we try to be flexible where possible. If your move is last-minute, it is still worth contacting us, as we may have gaps or cancellations we can use to fit you in.
