If you are unsure about an item, we will advise during the survey so there are no surprises on moving day.
Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quotation
You can contact Edgware Removals by phone, email or online form. We will ask key questions about your current and new premises, dates, access, and the scope of your move. Based on this, we provide an initial, no-obligation estimate and explain the options available, such as packing assistance, crate hire and out-of-hours working.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For most office moves, we carry out a detailed survey. This can be virtual (via video call) or onsite. We assess:
- Volume and type of furniture and equipment
- Lift access, stairs, corridors and door widths
- Parking and loading arrangements at both ends
- Any dismantling or specialist handling required
From this we produce a clear, written quotation and a provisional move plan.
3. Packing & Preparation
We agree a schedule that fits your operating hours. Options include:
- Full packing service – our team packs everything
- Part packing – we handle fragile or high-value items
- Crate delivery – we supply crates and labels for your staff to pack
We label all items clearly to match your new floor plan, so that each department or team area is set up correctly.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our trained removals team arrives at the agreed time. We protect floors and walls where needed, dismantle agreed furniture, and systematically load your items into our vehicles. Everything is secured and protected with blankets, straps and covers. We then transport your goods directly to the new premises using the most efficient route.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination, we unload in line with the agreed layout. Desks, cabinets and equipment are placed in their marked positions, and we reassemble any items we dismantled. We aim to leave your new office functional as quickly as possible so your team can get back to work with minimal disruption.
Transparent Pricing for Office Removals
We price office moves based on a combination of factors:
- Size and complexity of the move
- Distance between properties
- Access issues (stairs, lifts, long carries, parking restrictions)
- Level of packing service required
- Out-of-hours or weekend working, if needed
Your written quotation clearly sets out what is included and any optional extras. There are no hidden charges: any potential additional costs, such as parking fees or congestion charges, are discussed in advance wherever possible.
Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY
Moving an office is not the same as moving a few boxes in a car. Choosing a professional removals company offers several important advantages over DIY or a casual man-and-van service:
- Planned move schedule to minimise downtime
- Correct equipment for heavy or bulky items
- Systematic labelling to avoid lost or misplaced files
- Reduced risk of damage to expensive IT equipment and furniture
- Cover under our goods in transit insurance (subject to terms)
In many cases, the cost of downtime or damage far exceeds the saving from doing it yourself.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Edgware Removals operates to high professional standards so you can move with confidence. We are:
- Fully insured for goods in transit (subject to policy conditions and declared values)
- Covered by public liability insurance for work at your premises
- Staffed by trained, uniformed removal teams experienced in office moves
We provide written terms and conditions and can work alongside your own insurers or facilities team where required.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your property and premises with care. To protect your office and equipment, we use:
- Floor protection for entrances and high-traffic routes
- Furniture blankets, covers and padding
- Professional moving equipment such as sack trucks and skates
We also take a practical approach to sustainability by reusing crates, recycling packing materials where possible, and planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage.
Real-World Office Removal Use Cases
- Moving office within Edgware – for example, relocating from a small serviced office into a larger self-contained space.
- Business relocation across London or the UK – carefully coordinated multi-vehicle moves with staged packing and delivery.
- Urgent or short-notice moves – where leases change quickly, we work flexibly to move you safely in a compressed timeframe.
Whatever the scenario, we focus on clear communication and a calm, organised move.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an office removal in Edgware cost?
The cost of an office removal depends on the volume of items, access at each property, distance travelled, and the level of packing support you require. Smaller moves within Edgware may be priced on a fixed, all-inclusive basis, while larger or multi-day relocations are usually quoted after a survey. Our written quotation sets out all expected costs so you can budget accurately. To get a realistic figure, it is best to contact us with basic details or arrange a quick virtual or onsite survey.
Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?
Where our schedule allows, we do offer same-day or urgent office removals in Edgware and nearby areas. Availability depends on the size of the move, access, and how quickly we can safely organise a team and vehicles. Although we can often help at short notice, a planned move almost always runs more smoothly and may be more cost-effective. If you are facing an urgent deadline, contact us as soon as possible with your dates, locations and brief details so we can confirm what is realistically achievable.
What insurance cover do you provide for office removals?
Your office contents are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicles, subject to the policy terms, conditions and any declared values. We also hold public liability insurance for work on your premises. During the survey we will highlight any particularly high-value or specialist items so that suitable arrangements can be made. We recommend that you review your own business insurance as well, to ensure continuous cover for your equipment and stock before, during and after the move.
What is included in your office removals service?
Every move is tailored, but a typical office removal includes loading, transport and unloading of your furniture, IT, files and crates between the agreed addresses. We can also provide dismantling and reassembly of standard office furniture, protection for floors and key areas, and careful placement of items in line with your new layout. Optional extras include packing services, crate hire, out-of-hours working and disposal of unwanted office furniture. All inclusions and exclusions are listed clearly in your quotation so you know exactly what to expect.
How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van service may be suitable for very small, simple moves, but larger offices usually benefit from a structured, professional removals service. We provide trained staff, appropriate vehicles, protective materials and insurance, along with detailed planning and surveys where needed. This reduces the risk of damage, loss, delays and unexpected costs. A well-managed office move keeps disruption to staff and clients to a minimum, which is often far more important to a business than the small saving a basic man-and-van option might offer.
How far in advance should I book an office removal?
For most office moves, we recommend booking as early as you can once your dates are reasonably firm. Two to six weeks’ notice is ideal for planning, surveys and crate delivery, especially if you need to move at a month-end or weekend. However, we understand that business circumstances change quickly, so we will always try to accommodate shorter notice where our schedule allows. The earlier you contact us, the more flexibility we have to arrange the ideal dates and times for your move.
