Professional Office Removals in Roehampton

Our Roehampton-based team specialises in carefully planned, fully managed office relocations. Whether you are moving a single room within the same building or relocating an entire operation across London or the UK, we provide a structured, step-by-step service that keeps disruption to a minimum.

All moves are handled by trained, uniformed crews, using purpose-built vehicles and commercial-grade equipment. We are fully insured with goods in transit and public liability cover, and we work to professional standards that protect your staff, your premises, and your reputation.

Who Our Office Removals Service Is For

While this page focuses on office moves, the same high standards apply across our wider service. Our removals support clients including:

• Homeowners moving house locally or across the UK, with complete packing and transport.
• Renters leaving flats or rented houses who need careful handling of deposits and check-out expectations.
• Landlords requiring part-clearances, end-of-tenancy removals, or preparation for new tenants.
• Businesses of all sizes needing efficient office removals, internal moves, or crate hire.
• Students moving into or out of halls and shared accommodation, often on tight schedules.

For businesses in particular, we tailor our service to your working hours, IT requirements, and building access rules, coordinating closely with your team to keep your operations running smoothly.

What Our Roehampton Office Removals Include

• Office desks, chairs, meeting tables and storage units
• Filing cabinets (lateral and vertical), pedestals and racking
• Desktop PCs, monitors, laptops and docking stations

Items and Tasks Typically Excluded

For safety, licensing and practical reasons, some items and tasks are usually excluded from a standard office move:

• Live plants in poor condition or those too large to be safely transported

Where exclusions apply, we will explain this clearly during the quotation and can often recommend appropriate specialist contractors.

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quotation

Contact our Roehampton office by phone or email with your move details: current and new addresses, approximate number of staff, key dates and any building restrictions. We will ask a few focused questions to understand the scale and urgency. Based on this, we provide an initial estimate or arrange a survey for a more detailed fixed quotation.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

A surveyor will carry out either a virtual video survey or a visit to your premises, depending on the size and complexity of the move. We note furniture volumes, access routes, lift sizes, parking arrangements, IT infrastructure, and any fragile or high-value items. From this we create a move plan, agree dates, and confirm a clear, written quotation with no hidden extras.

3. Packing & Preparation

Before move day, we supply crates or cartons, labels and packing guidance for your staff. If you choose our full packing service, our team will pack documents, files and non-essential equipment on an agreed schedule, often starting a day or two in advance. We protect furniture with export wrap and padded covers, and we coordinate with your IT provider to ensure equipment is properly powered down and disconnected.

4. Loading & Transport

On the agreed day, our professional crews arrive on time, briefed on your move plan and floor layouts. We protect lifts, corridors and doors with covers where needed, and follow a clearly labelled system to keep departments and teams together. Goods are loaded carefully into our fully insured vehicles, secured for transit, and transported directly to your new location or to storage where agreed.

5. Unloading, Placement & Set-Up Support

At your new premises we unload according to your floor plan, placing crates, furniture and equipment into the correct rooms and work areas. Desks and standard furniture are reassembled, and we position items so your teams can get working again as quickly as possible. We can return at an agreed time to collect empty crates once you have unpacked.

Transparent Pricing for Office Removals

Office removal costs in Roehampton are based on a combination of factors rather than a fixed per-hour guess. We look at:

• Volume and type of furniture and equipment
• Number of workstations and staff affected
• Access at both ends (stairs, lifts, distance to parking)
• Distance between sites
• Whether you require packing services and crate hire
• Weekend, evening or same-day requirements

You receive a written quotation explaining what is included so you can budget with confidence. We do not promote unrealistic "from" prices that fail to match the real job; instead, we price fairly based on an accurate assessment of your move.

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

Attempting a business move with casual labour or a basic man-and-van service often leads to delays, damaged equipment and frustrated staff. Professional office removals bring:

• Planned schedules that coordinate with your working hours
• Proper handling of IT and sensitive documents
• Experienced crews who understand office layouts and building rules
• Specialist equipment such as sack trucks, skates and protective covers
• Insurance-backed protection for your assets

For most businesses, the real cost of a move is measured in lost productivity and disruption. A professional, well-planned service reduces that risk significantly.

Insurance & Professional Standards

Roehampton Movers operates with comprehensive cover and clear standards, so your business is properly protected.

• Goods in transit insurance – covers your office furniture and equipment while being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms.
• Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to buildings or third-party property during the move.
• Trained moving teams – our staff receive regular training in manual handling, packing, loading, and working safely on commercial premises.

We also work closely with building management where required, adhering to loading bay rules, booking lifts, and providing documentation on request.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Respect for your property and the environment guides how we work.

• Furniture is wrapped or covered to avoid scuffs and scratches.
• Floors, doors and lifts are protected where risk of damage is higher.
• We use reusable plastic crates where possible to reduce cardboard waste.
• Redundant furniture can be taken to charity partners or licensed recycling facilities on request.
• Routes and loads are planned efficiently to minimise unnecessary mileage.

Our aim is a smooth, carefully managed move that treats your premises and equipment with the same care we would use in our own offices.

Real-World Office Removals Use Cases

Moving to Larger or Smaller Premises

Growing businesses in Roehampton often outgrow their existing space. We help you plan the move to larger offices, ensuring teams remain operational throughout. Equally, when downsizing, we can assist with storage options and the responsible clearance of surplus furniture.

Internal Office Reorganisations

Not every move involves a new address. We regularly carry out internal reshuffles: moving departments to new floors, reconfiguring meeting rooms, or decanting areas to allow refurbishment. These are often completed out of hours or over weekends to avoid disrupting your working week.

Urgent and Short-Notice Moves

Occasionally, leases end unexpectedly or urgent building works force a rapid relocation. Subject to availability, we can provide short-notice or accelerated office moves, scaling our crews and vehicles to meet tight deadlines while still maintaining safe working practices.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do office removals in Roehampton cost?

Costs vary depending on the size of your office, the amount and type of equipment, access at both ends and the distance travelled. A small local move for a handful of staff is very different to relocating a multi-floor office with extensive IT and storage. After a survey we provide a clear, written quotation outlining labour, vehicles, packing, crate hire and any additional services. There are no hidden extras; if circumstances change, we discuss options with you before proceeding.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?

Where our schedule allows, we can support same-day or urgent relocations in and around Roehampton. This typically involves a focused assessment by phone or a rapid virtual survey, then deploying an appropriately sized team and vehicles. While urgent moves can sometimes limit the level of pre-planning, we still follow structured processes to protect your equipment and keep disruption under control. Contact us as early as possible, even for emergency situations, so we can advise realistically on what can be achieved.

What insurance cover do you provide for office moves?

We carry goods in transit insurance to protect your office furniture and equipment while it is being moved in our vehicles, plus public liability cover for accidental damage to buildings or third-party property. These policies sit alongside our in-house standards for careful handling, packing and loading. We are happy to share policy details and limits on request, and we recommend that high-value or specialist items are identified during the survey so we can plan appropriate protection.

What is included in a typical office removals service?

Our standard service includes the provision of vehicles and professional crews to load, transport and unload your office furniture, equipment and crates. We protect items with covers and wrapping as needed, dismantle and reassemble standard desks and furniture, and place everything into agreed positions at your new premises. Optional extras include full packing and unpacking, crate hire, storage, and IT handling support in conjunction with your own provider. Your quotation will list exactly what is included so there is no ambiguity on move day.

How is a professional removal different from a man-and-van?

Man-and-van services can be adequate for very small, simple jobs, but they rarely offer the planning, insurance and trained staffing that an office move requires. Professional removals involve site surveys, written quotations, floor plans, team briefings and purpose-built equipment like skates and covers. Our crews are trained to handle IT, confidential files and building constraints professionally. For businesses, the risk of downtime, lost items or damage usually outweighs any small saving from using informal transport options.

How far in advance should we book our office removal?

For a smooth office move, we recommend booking as soon as you have a firm date – ideally 4–8 weeks in advance for medium to large offices. This allows time for surveys, planning, crate deliveries and coordination with your IT and building management teams. Smaller or local moves can sometimes be arranged with shorter notice, especially midweek, but availability is always better the earlier you contact us. Even if your date is not fixed yet, it is helpful to start the conversation so we can advise on timescales.
