Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Initial Quote
Once you contact Kentish Town Removals, we gather the basics: your current and new addresses, the size of your office, expected move dates and any time constraints. We provide an initial guideline quote so you can budget, then arrange a survey to refine the details.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
We carry out a detailed virtual or onsite survey of your office. We assess access to lifts, staircases, parking and loading points, note any fragile or specialist equipment, and discuss any phased move requirements. This allows us to allocate the right team, vehicles and packing materials, and to confirm a fixed quotation based on your specific needs.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can choose from:
- Full packing service – we pack all desks, files, IT equipment and general contents
- Part packing service – we pack fragile and high-value items; your staff pack personal and non-critical items
- Self-pack – we supply crates, boxes and labels; your team pack ahead of move day
We label crates and furniture clearly by department, floor and position, so everything ends up in the right place at the new premises.
4. Loading & Transport
On move day, our professional crew arrives on time, fully briefed. We protect floors, walls and lifts where needed, dismantle agreed furniture, and carefully load your items using padded covers and securing straps. Your goods are protected by our goods in transit insurance while being transported in our well-maintained, GPS-tracked vehicles.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new office, we unload and place items according to your floor plan. We reassemble agreed furniture, position desks and meeting tables, and arrange crates in the correct departments or rooms. We can also remove used packing materials at the end, leaving the new space tidy and ready for your team.
Transparent Office Removals Pricing
Office removals pricing depends on several factors:
- Size of your office and volume of contents
- Distance between old and new premises
- Access issues (stairs, restricted loading, parking constraints)
- Level of packing service required
- Out-of-hours or weekend working
We provide clear, itemised quotations so you know exactly what is included. There are no hidden charges; any potential additional costs (for example, long carries or extra dismantling) are discussed upfront. For straightforward, smaller office moves, we can sometimes agree a fixed day rate; for larger or phased relocations, we usually provide a detailed project-based quote.
Why Use Professional Office Removers Instead of DIY
Attempting an office move with internal staff or a casual man-and-van team often leads to longer downtime, increased risk of damage, and health and safety issues. Our trained crews handle IT equipment and furniture daily, know how to move safely in shared buildings, and are covered by full public liability and goods in transit insurance.
We plan logistics, parking and building access in advance, coordinate around your working patterns, and bring the right equipment for the job. This reduces stress, protects your assets and staff, and generally costs less overall than a drawn-out DIY move with unexpected problems.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Kentish Town Removals operates to recognised professional standards to protect your business:
- Goods in transit insurance covering your office contents while they are being moved
- Public liability cover to protect you and building management in the event of accidental damage
- Trained moving teams experienced in office environments, manual handling and safe lifting
- Condition checks and clear documentation where required for higher-value equipment
We are happy to provide copies of our insurance certificates and risk assessments for your facilities or building management teams.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your office as if it were our own. Desks and chairs are wrapped where needed, IT equipment is carefully padded, and floors and doorways are protected to reduce the risk of scuffs or scrapes. We use high-quality reusable crates and protective materials and aim to minimise waste by reusing packing supplies where appropriate.
Where cardboard boxes are required, we source recyclable products and encourage clients to return or recycle materials after the move. Routing is planned to reduce unnecessary mileage, helping to lower our environmental impact while still meeting your timeframes.
Real-World Office Removals Use Cases
Moving to a Larger Office
Growing businesses often need more space. We regularly help companies in Kentish Town relocate to larger premises, managing phased moves so departments can stay operational. We can move non-critical functions first, then core teams, often over a weekend to reduce disruption.
Internal Office Reconfiguration
Not every move involves a new building. We also handle internal reshuffles: moving departments between floors, re-configuring open plan layouts, or consolidating teams into fewer rooms. This is especially useful for landlords and facilities managers.
Urgent or Time-Sensitive Office Moves
Occasionally businesses need to move quickly due to lease changes, building issues or sudden growth. Where diary capacity allows, we offer short-notice or urgent office removals, drafting in additional teams and vehicles to meet tight deadlines safely and efficiently.
Local Expertise in Kentish Town
Being based in and around Kentish Town means we know the local streets, parking restrictions and building types very well. From older converted properties to modern office blocks, we are familiar with the access challenges that are common in the area.
We regularly work with building managers and concierge teams in Kentish Town to arrange loading bays, lift bookings and out-of-hours access. This local knowledge helps your move run smoothly and avoids delays on the day.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an office removal in Kentish Town cost?
The cost of an office removal varies depending on the size of your office, the volume of equipment and furniture, the distance between locations, and how much packing support you need. Smaller offices may be completed in a single day with a compact team, while larger multi-floor sites can require phased moves and additional planning. After a survey, we provide a clear, written quotation with all labour, vehicles and packing services detailed, so you can budget accurately and avoid unexpected extras.
Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?
Where our schedule allows, we can often accommodate urgent or short-notice office removals in Kentish Town. The more notice you can give us, the easier it is to secure your ideal dates and plan around building access restrictions. For urgent moves, we focus on core essentials first – key desks, IT equipment and critical files – and can return for non-essential items if necessary. Contact us as soon as you know your deadline and we will advise honestly on what is realistic within the time available.
Are my office contents insured during the move?
Yes. Your office contents are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved, and we also hold public liability cover for work on your premises and in shared areas. This insurance is designed to provide reassurance in the unlikely event of an incident. We still handle your equipment with great care, using protective wraps and proper securing inside our vehicles. If you have particularly high-value items or sensitive equipment, please mention this during the survey so we can confirm appropriate coverage.
What is included in your office removals service?
Our standard office removals service includes a survey, planning support, trained moving crews, vehicles, protective covers and basic dismantling and reassembly of standard office furniture. We load, transport and unload your contents, placing items according to your floor plan. Optional extras include full or part packing, crate hire, clearance of unwanted items and additional out-of-hours working. Every job is different, so your quotation will set out clearly what is included, any optional services you have chosen, and anything specifically excluded.
How is a professional office removal different from a man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van service typically offers basic transport only, with limited planning, little or no insurance, and no guarantee of trained staff. A professional office removal service, such as Kentish Town Removals, includes structured planning, trained crews used to handling IT and office furniture, proper protective equipment and full insurance. We coordinate with building management, manage access and timing, and work to minimise downtime for your business. The overall result is a safer, faster and more reliable move, with far less risk to your equipment and reputation.
How far in advance should I book an office removal?
For most office moves, we recommend booking at least 3–6 weeks in advance, particularly if you need a weekend or end-of-month date, which are always popular. This allows time for surveys, building access arrangements and staff communication. Larger or phased relocations may need longer planning. However, we understand that business circumstances can change quickly, and we often accommodate moves at shorter notice where our diary allows. The earlier you contact us, the more options we will have to shape the move around your preferred dates.
