What We Can and Cannot Move

Included Items

We routinely move:

• Household furniture (sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, cabinets)
• Domestic appliances (washing machines, fridges, freezers – disconnected and drained)
• Boxes of personal belongings, books, clothes and kitchenware
• TVs, computers, small electronics and home office equipment
• Bicycles, sports equipment and garden furniture

Excluded or Restricted Items

• Hazardous materials (fuel, gas bottles, paint thinners, chemicals)
• Illegal items of any kind
• Large commercial machinery or industrial equipment
• Unboxed loose small items that cannot be safely loaded
• Pets or live animals (we can advise on suitable alternatives)

If you have particularly valuable, unusually heavy or specialist items (such as pianos or safes), please mention them at enquiry stage so we can confirm feasibility and any additional arrangements required.

Our Step-by-Step Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with details of your current and new address, property type, approximate volume of items and preferred moving date. We will ask sensible questions to understand access, floors, parking and any special requirements. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, either fixed-price or hourly depending on the nature of the move.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For larger or more complex moves, we recommend a short survey. This may be done virtually via video call or as an onsite visit. We walk through each room with you, note furniture, fragile items and access points, and confirm any disassembly required. This allows us to allocate the right team, vehicle and materials, and to minimise surprises on the day.

3. Packing & Preparation

We offer flexible packing services:

• Full packing service – we supply materials, pack all agreed items, and label boxes by room.
• Part packing service – we focus on fragile or complex items while you pack the rest.
• Self-packing – you pack everything; we provide guidance and can supply materials if needed.

Furniture is protected using covers, blankets and padding. Mattresses and sofas are placed in protective bags or covers where appropriate.

4. Loading & Transport

On moving day, our trained team arrives on time, confirms the inventory and starts loading in an organised order. Items are secured in the vehicle to prevent movement in transit. We choose routes that balance journey time with safe driving conditions. Your belongings are transported directly to your new address unless otherwise agreed.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new home, we unload and place furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify. We reassemble any items we dismantled, position large furniture where you want it, and check that everything on the agreed list has been delivered. Before leaving, we carry out a walk-round with you so you can confirm you are satisfied with the placement.

Transparent Pricing and How We Charge

We believe in clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes take into account:

• Property sizes and number of rooms
• Volume of items and any heavy or awkward pieces
• Distance between addresses
• Access (floors, lifts, stairs, parking and walking distances)
• Services required (packing, materials, disassembly/reassembly)
• Day and time (weekdays, weekends, evenings)

For smaller moves, we often work on a clear hourly rate with a minimum booking period; for full house removals we typically agree a fixed price in advance so you know exactly where you stand. Any potential additional charges (for example, waiting time due to delayed key release) are explained up front.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY

Hiring a professional removals company does more than save your back. Compared with DIY or a casual man-and-van service, you benefit from:

• Fully insured operations and clear terms
• Trained staff who know how to protect and lift items safely
• Proper vehicles with securing points, blankets and equipment
• Reduced risk of damage to both belongings and property
• Realistic timing and planning based on experience
• One point of responsibility if something goes wrong

What may look cheaper initially can quickly become costly if items are damaged, vehicles are unsuitable or injuries occur. A structured house removal service is usually better value overall.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Your belongings are important, both financially and emotionally. To protect them, our service includes:

• Goods in transit insurance for covered items while they are being moved
• Public liability cover for damage to third-party property or injury caused by our operations
• Trained moving teams who follow safe lifting and handling practices

We work to clear, written terms and conditions which set out our responsibilities and your obligations (for example, suitable parking and correctly declared items). This professional framework gives you confidence that your move is being handled properly.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every item as if it were our own. Protection is built into our process:

• Use of padded blankets, straps and floor protection where appropriate
• Wrapping of fragile items in paper, bubble wrap or specialist materials
• Careful manoeuvring through tight hallways and stairwells to avoid scuffs

We also pay attention to sustainability. Where possible we:

• Reuse sturdy cartons and protective materials in good condition
• Recycle worn-out materials responsibly
• Plan routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage

The aim is to deliver a careful, efficient move while minimising waste and unnecessary impact.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a house removal in Parsons Green cost?

The cost depends on factors such as property size, volume of belongings, distance between addresses, access, and whether you require packing or dismantling services. Smaller flat moves can often be handled on an hourly rate, while full house removals are usually quoted at a fixed price after a brief survey. As a guide, a simple local one-bedroom move will cost less than a large family home with complex access and packing included. We always provide a clear, itemised quote before you commit.

Can you handle same-day or urgent moves?

Yes, we can often accommodate short-notice or urgent moves, especially within Parsons Green and the surrounding area. Availability depends on our existing bookings, team capacity and vehicle scheduling, so the earlier you contact us, the better. If we can help, we will give you a realistic time window and clear information about what can be achieved on the day. For very last-minute moves, we may suggest a streamlined service focusing on essentials first, followed by a secondary trip if required.

Are my belongings insured during the move?

Yes. Our service includes goods in transit insurance for covered items while they are being moved, as well as public liability cover for damage to third-party property or injury caused by our operations. Insurance is subject to policy terms and to you providing accurate information about the items we are moving. We will explain the key points, any limits and exclusions when you book. If you have particularly high-value or unusual items, please tell us in advance so we can confirm how best to protect them.

What exactly is included in your house removals service?

Our standard house removals service includes loading, transportation and unloading of all items listed in your quote, along with basic protection such as blankets, straps and furniture covers. We place boxes and furniture in the rooms you specify and reassemble any items we dismantled. Optional extras include packing services, supply of packing materials, and specialist handling of fragile or unusual items. We do not normally disconnect appliances or remove fixtures, but we can advise what you need to do before moving day so everything is ready.

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

While a basic man-and-van might work for very small, simple moves, a professional removal service offers far more structure and protection. You benefit from fully insured operations, trained staff, proper vehicles with the right securing equipment, and a planned process from survey to placement in your new home. We assess access, provide written quotes, and take responsibility for managing the move safely and efficiently. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and unexpected costs that can occur with informal or unstructured services.

How far in advance should I book my house removal?

Ideally, you should book as soon as you have a confirmed moving date, particularly if you are moving at busy times such as the end of the month, Fridays or during school holidays. Many customers reserve their slot two to four weeks in advance. However, we understand that completion dates can change, so we try to be flexible where possible. If your move is sooner, contact us anyway – we will let you know our availability and suggest practical options based on your timing.
