What We Can and Cannot Move

Items Typically Included

We routinely move:

• Household furniture – sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, cabinets
• White goods – fridges, freezers, washing machines, dryers, cookers
• Electronics – TVs, computers, audio equipment and home office gear
• Personal belongings – clothing, books, ornaments, pictures and toys

• Illegal or stolen items
• Live animals (including pets and livestock)

Our Step-by-Step House Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

Contact us by phone, email or online form with your moving dates, addresses and a rough idea of what needs moving. We will ask a few practical questions about access, floors, and any special items. Based on this information, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote with a breakdown of what is included.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a survey. This can often be done virtually using video, or we can visit the property in person in North Sheen. The survey lets us assess volume, access, parking and any dismantling required, so we can allocate the right vehicle, crew and timings.

3. Packing & Preparation

We offer several options:

• Full packing service – we pack everything for you using quality cartons and packing materials.
• Part packing – we handle fragile items like glass, artwork, and kitchenware, you pack simpler items.
• Self-pack – you pack, and we supply boxes and materials if required.

Furniture is protected with covers, and items are dismantled where necessary for safe transport.

4. Loading & Transport

On move day, our professional team arrives on time, walks through the plan with you, and starts loading systematically. We use blankets, straps and floor protection where needed. Everything is loaded securely into our vehicle and transported directly to your new address, or via storage if previously agreed.

5. Unloading & Placement

At the new property, we unload room by room according to your instructions. We place furniture where you want it, reassemble agreed items such as beds and tables, and ensure you can access essential items like beds, basics for the kitchen and work equipment before we leave.

Transparent Pricing & How We Charge

We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes are based on:

• Volume of items to be moved
• Access and floors at both addresses
• Distance between properties
• Services required (packing, dismantling, storage)
• Any special or heavy items (pianos, safes, large wardrobes)

For smaller moves in North Sheen, we may offer a fixed-price man and van service or a competitive hourly rate with a minimum booking period. For full house removals, we normally provide a fixed price for the entire job so you can budget with confidence.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY

Moving yourself or relying on a casual man-and-van often looks cheaper at first, but it comes with hidden costs and risks. Our professional removals service provides:

• Trained staff who know how to lift, carry and pack safely
• Specialist equipment and vehicles designed for removals
• Goods in transit insurance for your belongings
• Reduced risk of injury to you, friends or family
• Less chance of damage to furniture, walls, doors and staircases

For most customers, the peace of mind and reduced stress easily outweigh the difference in cost compared to hiring a van and doing it all yourself.

Insurance & Professional Standards

Your belongings are important. We back up our care and experience with proper cover and professional standards:

• Goods in transit insurance – protection for your items while they are in our vehicle and under our control.
• Public liability cover – in the unlikely event of accidental damage to third-party property.
• Trained moving teams – our crews are experienced in safe lifting techniques, loading, and packing.

We follow clear procedures for handling fragile items, reporting any issues promptly, and resolving problems fairly. Full details of our cover and terms are available with your quote.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We focus on doing the job properly, not just quickly. That means:

• Using protective blankets, mattress covers and floor runners where required
• Wrapping delicate items carefully and marking fragile boxes clearly
• Securing loads to prevent movement in transit

We also aim to work in a more sustainable way:

• Reusing strong cartons where possible rather than single-use boxes
• Offering shared-load options when practical to reduce trips
• Planning efficient routes to cut unnecessary mileage

Small steps like these help reduce waste and environmental impact without compromising on standards.

Real-World Use Cases

Moving House in North Sheen

Most of our work involves full or partial house moves within North Sheen or to nearby areas. Families appreciate having a single point of contact, reliable timings, and a team that can manage everything from packing to reassembly.

Office & Small Business Relocations

We regularly help small offices and local businesses move desks, files, stock and equipment. Moves can be scheduled outside normal working hours to reduce downtime, with careful labelling to keep everything organised.

Urgent & Short-Notice Moves

Sometimes moves arise unexpectedly – a tenancy change, a sale completing faster than planned, or a sudden need to clear a property. Subject to availability, we can provide same-day or next-day removals in North Sheen, focusing on the essentials first so you are not left stuck.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do house removals in North Sheen cost?

The cost depends on how much you have to move, access at each property, the distance travelled and any extra services such as packing or storage. Smaller local moves may be priced on an hourly basis with a minimum booking period, while full house moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. The best way to get an accurate figure is to request a tailored quote or short survey. We will explain exactly what is included so you can compare like for like.

Can you do same-day or urgent removals?

Yes, we can often accommodate same-day or short-notice moves in North Sheen, depending on vehicle and crew availability. If your dates have changed unexpectedly, or you have been let down by another company, contact us as soon as you can. We will check our schedule, prioritise essential items, and propose a realistic plan. In some cases, we might suggest splitting the move into stages or using temporary storage to get you out of the property on time.

Are my belongings insured during the move?

Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance for items while they are in our vehicle and under our control, along with public liability cover. This is designed to protect against the most common risks associated with moving. There are, however, sensible limits and exclusions, especially for very high-value items or things we have specifically advised we cannot carry. We will outline the key details in writing before the move so you understand exactly what is covered and can arrange extra cover if needed.

What is included in your house removals service?

Our standard removals service includes loading, transport and unloading of your furniture and boxed belongings between the agreed addresses, plus basic protection with blankets and straps. We place items in the rooms you specify and can dismantle and reassemble straightforward furniture by prior arrangement. Optional extras include full or part packing, supply of boxes and packing materials, disposal of unwanted items, and short- or long-term storage. Your written quote will clearly list what is and is not included so there are no surprises on the day.

How is a professional removals service different from a basic man-and-van?

A casual man-and-van service generally provides transport and lifting only, often without formal training, proper insurance or the equipment needed for larger or more complex moves. A professional removals service like ours offers trained crews, dedicated removals vehicles, protective materials, and clear procedures for planning, packing and handling fragile or heavy items. We also provide written quotes, confirmation of dates and insurance details. This structure leads to fewer problems on moving day and better protection if something does go wrong.

How far in advance should I book my move?

Ideally, you should book your North Sheen removal as soon as you have a confirmed moving date, particularly if you are moving at month-end or during peak periods. Two to four weeks’ notice is usually comfortable for most local moves, allowing time for a survey and any packing if required. However, we understand that completion dates and tenancies can change at short notice, so we also keep some flexibility in our schedule to help customers who need to move more quickly.
