Local Furniture Removals Expertise in Roehampton
Working in Roehampton week in, week out means we understand local roads, access issues, parking restrictions, and typical building layouts.

Our Step-by-Step Furniture Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us by phone or online with details of your move: addresses, access, floors, list of furniture and preferred dates. We provide an initial estimate and suggest the most appropriate service level for your needs and budget.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For anything beyond a very small move, we recommend a virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to assess access, parking, stairwells, lift size and the furniture itself. Accurate surveys help prevent surprises on the day and lead to a fair, transparent quote.
3. Packing & Preparation
On moving day (or the day before for larger jobs), our trained, professional removals team arrives with all necessary materials. We protect furniture using padded blankets, export wrap and mattress covers, and we can dismantle beds, wardrobes and tables as required. If you prefer, we also offer a full or partial packing service for your other belongings.
4. Loading & Transport
We load your furniture methodically, securing it in our vehicles to prevent movement in transit. Our vehicles are equipped with straps, blankets and floor protection. Your goods are covered by goods in transit insurance while being transported between addresses.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the new property, we unload and place each item in the rooms you specify. Where we have dismantled furniture, we reassemble it as agreed. We carry out a brief walk-through at the end so you can confirm you are happy with the placement and condition of your furniture.
Transparent Furniture Removals Pricing
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes for furniture removals in Roehampton are based on:
- Volume and type of furniture
- Access at collection and delivery addresses (floors, lifts, stairs)
- Distance between properties and travel time
- Number of movers required
- Any additional services (packing, dismantling/reassembly, storage)
We typically offer either a fixed price for the complete job or, for smaller or more flexible moves, a clearly explained hourly rate with minimum hours. All charges, including any potential parking or congestion costs, are discussed upfront so you can budget with confidence.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van
Moving furniture yourself or using an informal man-and-van can seem cheaper, but it often carries hidden costs and risks. As a fully insured removals company with experienced teams, Roehampton Movers offers:
- Correct lifting techniques to reduce the risk of injury
- Proper vehicles and protective equipment to prevent damage
- Reliable arrival times and enough manpower for the job
- Written confirmation of your booking and clear terms
- Goods in transit and public liability cover for peace of mind
With DIY moves, breakages, personal injury, and delays are common. With a casual van, you may have limited or no insurance, and little recourse if something goes wrong. Using a professional removals company means your furniture and property are better protected.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We take our responsibilities seriously. Every move is carried out under clear terms and covered by appropriate insurance:
- Goods in transit insurance – protects your furniture while it is being transported in our vehicles, subject to our terms and conditions.
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to third-party property, such as communal areas and neighbours' belongings.
- Trained moving teams – all staff are trained in manual handling, furniture protection and safe loading techniques.
We maintain our vehicles regularly and use professional-grade materials to reduce the risk of damage. Full details of cover and any limits or exclusions are available on request and outlined in your booking documents.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every piece of furniture as if it were our own. Corners and surfaces are protected, routes through your property are planned carefully, and floors can be covered where needed to prevent scuffs and marks.
We also aim to work in a more sustainable way:
- Reusing durable moving blankets and transit materials where hygiene allows
- Offering reusable crate hire as an alternative to single-use boxes for some moves
- Planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage and emissions
Where new materials are required, we choose sturdy, recyclable options wherever possible.
Real-World Use Cases for Our Furniture Removals
Moving House in or from Roehampton
From terraced houses and maisonettes to larger family homes, we manage complete furniture moves locally and across the UK. We coordinate with your timelines, keys and completion dates to keep the day as stress-free as possible.
Office and Commercial Relocations
For offices and commercial spaces, we relocate desks, IT furniture, filing systems and meeting room setups. Moves can be scheduled outside normal working hours to keep disruption to your staff and customers to a minimum.
Urgent or Short-Notice Moves
Sometimes moves come up unexpectedly – a tenancy ending, a sale completing sooner than planned, or urgent refurbishment. Where our schedule allows, we provide same-day or next-day furniture removals in Roehampton and nearby areas. We will always advise honestly about what is realistic within a short timescale.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do furniture removals in Roehampton cost?
The cost depends on the volume and type of furniture, access at each property, distance travelled and how many movers are needed. Smaller local moves may be priced on an hourly rate, while larger or more complex moves are usually offered at a fixed price. Additional services, such as packing, dismantling and reassembly, will be itemised so you can see exactly what you are paying for. We always provide a clear written quotation before you commit, with no hidden charges.
Can you do same-day or urgent furniture removals?
We can often accommodate same-day or short-notice moves in Roehampton, particularly for smaller loads or single items, depending on our schedule and crew availability. The more notice you can give, the better the chance we can offer your preferred time slot, but if your plans change suddenly, contact us and we will be honest about what we can do. Urgent moves are carried out with the same level of care and protection as planned ones, but flexibility on time may be needed.
Are my items insured during the move?
Yes. Your furniture is covered by our goods in transit insurance while it is being transported in our vehicles, and our public liability cover protects against accidental damage to third-party property. As with all policies, there are terms, conditions and limits, which we are happy to explain in full before you book. For particularly high-value or unusual items, we may recommend additional specialist cover or packing. It is also advisable to check whether your own home insurance provides any extra protection during a move.
What is included in a furniture removals service?
Our standard furniture removals service includes a trained team, suitable vehicle, loading, secure transport and unloading of your furniture into the rooms you choose. We protect items with blankets and wraps, and we can dismantle and reassemble common furniture such as beds and wardrobes if agreed in advance. We also advise on parking and access and can provide basic floor protection. Optional extras include full or partial packing of your other belongings, supply of packing materials and short- or long-term storage if you are between properties.
How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van service often offers little more than transport and basic lifting, with limited or no formal insurance, planning or paperwork. A professional removals company like Roehampton Movers provides a structured service: surveys, written quotes, fully insured transport, trained staff, suitable equipment and clear terms. We focus on protecting your furniture and property, turning up on time with the right size vehicle and enough people for the job. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and unexpected costs, giving you much greater peace of mind.
How far in advance should I book furniture removals?
For the best choice of dates and times, especially at busy periods such as the end of the month or weekends, we recommend booking as soon as you have a confirmed moving date – ideally two to four weeks in advance. However, we understand that not every move can be planned that far ahead. If your timeline is tight, contact us as early as possible and we will do our best to fit you in. Flexibility on timing or midweek moves can often help secure a slot at shorter notice.
