Who Our Removal Service Is For

Homeowners

If you are upsizing, downsizing or relocating out of Chiswick, we manage full household moves with care and attention to detail. We can pack delicate items, move large furniture and coordinate timings with your completion date.

Renters

We regularly help tenants move between rented properties, often on tight timetables and with strict check-out requirements. We take care when handling walls, floors and communal areas to help you leave the property in good condition.

Landlords

Landlords use our services to clear properties between tenancies, remove unwanted furniture or move in new furnishings. We can work to short notice and coordinate directly with your agents if required.

Businesses

Local businesses and offices in Chiswick rely on us for efficient, low-disruption relocations. We can move IT equipment, office furniture, stock and archives, with out-of-hours or weekend moves available to minimise downtime.

Students

Students moving into or out of Chiswick and nearby university areas benefit from flexible, smaller-scale moves. We can combine items with other local moves where appropriate to keep costs manageable.

What We Can and Cannot Move

Items Typically Included

Our team can safely move most household and office items, including:

• Sofas, armchairs and dining furniture
• Beds, wardrobes, drawers and other bedroom furniture
• Desks, filing cabinets, meeting tables and office chairs
• Domestic appliances (washing machines, fridges, freezers, cookers)
• Computers, monitors, printers and small office equipment
• Boxes of books, clothing, kitchenware and personal effects
• Artwork, mirrors and fragile ornaments (appropriately packed)

Items Usually Excluded

For safety, legal or insurance reasons, we typically cannot move:

• Hazardous materials (fuel, gas cylinders, paint thinners, chemicals)
• Illegal items or anything prohibited by law
• Large quantities of jewellery, cash or other high-value items best carried by you
• Animals and live plants on long-distance journeys
• Very heavy specialist items (such as safes, pianos or machinery) unless pre-agreed

If you are unsure about a specific item, just ask. We can often recommend safe alternatives or arrange specialist support where needed.

Our Step-by-Step Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with details of your move: current and new addresses, property type, approximate volume and any time constraints. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote, outlining what is included and any optional extras such as packing or storage.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For anything more than a small move, we carry out a survey, either by video call or a home visit. This allows us to assess access, parking, stairs, lifts and the volume of goods. A proper survey helps us allocate the right vehicle and team, preventing delays on moving day.

3. Packing & Preparation

On the days leading up to your move, you can either pack your own boxes or choose our professional packing service. If we are packing, we use strong cartons, bubble wrap and protective materials. Furniture that needs it will be dismantled, and mattresses and sofas can be wrapped for extra protection.

4. Loading & Transport

On moving day, our trained team arrives on time, protects floors and banisters where necessary, and loads your belongings in a logical, secure order. Everything is carefully strapped and padded in the vehicle. We then drive directly to your new property, using sensible routes based on local traffic conditions.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new address, we unload methodically, placing labelled boxes and furniture into the correct rooms as directed. Furniture we dismantled can be reassembled, and we position larger items so that you can settle in more quickly. Once finished, we carry out a brief check with you before leaving.

Transparent Pricing and How We Charge

We believe in straightforward, transparent pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes are usually based on:

• Volume of goods and type of property
• Distance between addresses
• Number of movers and size of vehicle required
• Whether packing materials and packing services are included
• Any additional services such as dismantling, storage or out-of-hours work

You will receive a written quotation clearly explaining what is included. If your requirements change, we update the quote in advance so you always know where you stand.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Man-and-Van

On paper, hiring a van or a casual man-and-van may look cheaper, but there are important differences:

• Fully insured – we carry appropriate goods in transit and public liability insurance
• Trained teams – our staff are experienced in lifting, packing and protecting furniture and fragile items
• Planning and reliability – we survey, turn up on time and bring the right equipment
• Damage reduction – careful handling and protection reduce the risk of costly accidents
• Time-saving – a well-organised team can complete moves significantly faster

For many customers, the peace of mind and reduced risk of damage more than offset the difference in cost compared with a purely DIY approach.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Your belongings are important, both financially and emotionally. To safeguard them, we operate to high professional standards:

• Goods in transit insurance – protects your items while they are being transported in our vehicles
• Public liability cover – protects against damage to third-party property or injury where we are at fault
• Trained moving teams – staff trained in manual handling, safe lifting and packing techniques
• Documented procedures – for handling fragile items, furniture dismantling and working in shared buildings

Policy details and limits can be provided on request, and we are happy to discuss any higher-value items before moving day.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every move as if it were our own home or business. This means:

• Using protective covers for mattresses, sofas and key furniture items
• Blankets, straps and padding used throughout the vehicle
• Floor and bannister protection where there is a risk of scuffs or dirt
• Careful handling of corners, stairwells and narrow hallways

We also aim to work in a more sustainable way. Wherever possible, we:

• Reuse sturdy boxes and materials when safe and appropriate
• Encourage customers to return or recycle packing materials
• Plan routes and schedules to reduce unnecessary mileage

Real-World Use Cases

Moving House in Chiswick

Families and individuals moving within or out of Chiswick often juggle school runs, work and completion dates. We coordinate carefully with your schedule, offering packing in the days before the move and flexible start times on the day itself.

Office Relocations

From small agencies to professional practices, we handle office moves with minimal disruption. We can move desks, chairs, filing systems and IT equipment, and we are used to working in shared office buildings and serviced spaces.

Urgent and Short-Notice Moves

Sometimes moves need to happen quickly due to a change in circumstances, end-of-tenancy deadlines or unexpected issues. Where our availability allows, we can offer short-notice or even same-day removals in Chiswick, with a focus on getting the essentials moved safely and promptly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a removal service in Chiswick cost?

The cost of a removal in Chiswick depends on the size of your property, the volume of items, access at each address and the distance involved. A small flat move within the local area may be completed in half a day with a small team, while a larger house move will take longer and require more staff and a larger vehicle. Once we have your details, we provide a clear written quote so you know exactly what you will pay before you book.

Can you handle same-day or urgent moves?

We can often help with same-day or urgent moves, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. If you need to move at short notice, contact us as soon as possible with your addresses and an idea of what needs moving. We will check availability, advise realistically on what we can achieve in the time, and prioritise key items if necessary. While we cannot guarantee same-day availability every time, we will always try to find a practical solution.

What insurance cover do you provide?

We provide goods in transit insurance to protect your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, and public liability cover for any damage or injury caused where we are responsible. This cover is designed for the vast majority of domestic and small business moves. If you have particularly high-value items, let us know in advance so we can confirm cover limits or discuss additional precautions. Full policy information can be supplied on request for your peace of mind.

What is included in your removals service?

Our standard removals service includes a vehicle, a suitably sized professional team, loading, transport and unloading to your new address. We place furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify and can dismantle and reassemble standard furniture if agreed in advance. Optional extras include packing services, provision of packing materials and short-term storage via trusted partners. Your written quote will set out exactly what is included so there are no surprises on moving day.

How is your service different from a man-and-van?

While some man-and-van operators work hard for their customers, our service is structured for reliability and protection. We use trained staff, appropriate equipment and full insurance, and we conduct surveys for larger moves so we know what to expect. This planning reduces the risk of delays, damage and unexpected extra trips. For many customers, especially those with a full household or office to move, this more organised approach offers far better value than a purely ad hoc service.

How far in advance should I book my move?

We usually recommend booking as soon as your moving date is reasonably certain, particularly if you are moving on a Friday or at month-end, when demand is highest. For most local moves, two to four weeks’ notice is ideal, but we regularly accommodate shorter notice periods where our diary allows. Even if your dates are not yet fixed, it is worth contacting us early so we can discuss options and pencil in provisional availability.
