Every business is different, so we tailor our service around your working hours, building access, IT requirements and security needs. Whether you are moving within Pimlico or relocating elsewhere in London, we focus on a smooth transition so your team can get back to work quickly.

Who Our Office Removals Service Is For

Our Pimlico office removals are designed for:

• Homeowners running a business from a home office who need to move to a new property or dedicated workspace.
• Renters with serviced or co-working offices that must be vacated on a fixed date.
• Landlords needing full or partial office clearances between tenancies or refurbishments.
• Businesses of all sizes, from solo professionals to growing teams relocating to larger premises.
• Students with study spaces, studio offices or project rooms that need moving between halls, flats or studios.

What Our Office Removals Include

Items Typically Included

We can safely move most standard office contents, including:

• Desks, tables, pedestals and storage units
• Office chairs and meeting room furniture
• Desktop computers, monitors, printers and peripherals
• Servers and network equipment (pre-disconnected)
• Filing cabinets, archive boxes and general paperwork
• Kitchen items such as kettles, microwaves and small fridges
• Whiteboards, noticeboards and artwork
• Packed personal items from staff workstations

Items We Cannot Move

For safety, insurance and legal reasons, some items are excluded from our standard service:

• Hazardous materials (chemicals, solvents, gas bottles, fuel)
• Industrial machinery requiring specialist lifting or installation
• Very high-value items without prior declaration and agreement
• Live animals, plants in poor condition or biological samples
• Illegal or restricted items, including confidential waste awaiting secure destruction

If you are unsure about a particular item, ask during the survey and we will advise on the safest and most compliant approach.

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with your move details – current and new addresses, number of staff, key dates and any special requirements. We ask a few focused questions to understand access, parking and building restrictions, then provide an initial estimate. For straightforward jobs, we can often quote based on your description and photos.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For most office moves, we recommend a short survey. This can be done via video call or in person. We measure volumes, check lifts and stairwells, review IT equipment, and discuss timing (for example, evening or weekend moves). This allows us to allocate the right vehicle size, number of movers and any additional packing materials.

3. Packing & Preparation

You can choose from:

• Packing service – we supply crates or boxes and trained packers to prepare files, IT, kitchen items and general contents, carefully labelled for each team or department.
• Part-pack service – we handle fragile and technical items, while your team packs personal effects.
• Self-pack – we deliver materials in advance and you pack at your own pace.

On packing day, we protect furniture with covers and wrap delicate equipment as needed.

4. Loading & Transport

Our movers arrive on time, introduce themselves and carry out a quick walkthrough. We use floor protection where required and plan the load sequence so items come off the vehicle in a sensible order at the new site. Everything is secured in our vehicles using straps and blankets to reduce movement in transit. We then transport your office contents directly to the new address.

5. Unloading & Placement

At the new premises, we unload in line with your floor plan or instructions, placing desks, chairs and storage where they are needed. Boxes and crates are left in the correct rooms or zones. We can assist with basic reassembly of standard flat-pack desks and shelving that we dismantled for the move. Before we leave, we do a final check with you to confirm that everything has been delivered and positioned as agreed.

Transparent Pricing for Office Removals

Our pricing is clear and straightforward. We typically base office removals on:

• Volume of furniture and equipment
• Number of movers required
• Distance between locations
• Access conditions (stairs, lifts, parking)
• Level of packing service required
• Out-of-hours or weekend working, if needed

We provide a written quote with no hidden extras. Any potential additional charges (such as congestion or parking costs) are explained in advance, so you can budget with confidence.

Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY

Using a professional office removals company reduces risk and downtime. Our teams are trained in handling IT equipment, heavy furniture and confined stairwells, reducing the chance of injury or damage. We plan the sequence of your move so staff can keep working for as long as possible and resume quickly at the new site.

DIY moves or casual man-and-van services often lack suitable insurance, proper equipment and experience with commercial buildings and loading bays. Small mistakes can lead to broken kit, lost documents or access issues with building management. With us, you gain structure, accountability and proper protection.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Man with Van Pimlico operates to recognised industry standards for small and medium office moves. We carry:

• Goods in transit insurance to protect your items while they are being moved.
• Public liability cover for accidental damage to third-party property or injury.
• Trained moving teams who follow agreed procedures for lifting, loading and protecting your office contents.

We can provide proof of insurance and risk assessments if your building management or landlord requires them.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat your office equipment and documents as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped where necessary, and IT equipment is carefully padded and secured. We use reusable crates where possible to cut down on single-use cardboard, and we aim to minimise the number of journeys required by planning efficient loads.

Where clients are downsizing or refurbishing, we can assist with responsible disposal of unwanted items via licensed waste partners, helping you reduce environmental impact and clear space efficiently.

Real-World Office Removals Use Cases

Moving to a Larger Office

Growing businesses in Pimlico often outgrow their first space. We help plan staged moves so core teams can remain operational while departments move over in phases, ensuring continuity of service for your clients.

Internal Reconfiguration

Sometimes you are not changing address, but reworking your existing layout. We can move furniture and equipment between floors or departments, rearrange meeting spaces and temporarily store items during refurbishments.

Urgent and Short-Notice Office Moves

There are occasions when leases end unexpectedly, or you need to move quickly due to building issues. Subject to availability, we can provide same-day or next-day support for urgent relocations or partial moves, focusing on critical equipment and workstations first.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does an office removal in Pimlico cost?

The cost depends on the size of your office, the distance between properties, access, and whether you require packing services. Smaller office moves within Pimlico are often priced on a fixed rate or a half/full day basis, while larger projects may have a detailed, itemised quote. Once we have completed a survey, we provide a clear written estimate with all known costs listed. There are no hidden extras, and any potential parking or out-of-hours charges are discussed with you in advance.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?

Yes, we can often help with same-day or short-notice moves, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. Urgent office moves are usually focused on essential workstations, IT equipment and key files first, with less critical items moved later if required. Contact us as soon as you know you need to move, and we will be honest about what is achievable, how many movers we can provide and the likely timescales for completing the relocation safely.

Are my office contents insured during the move?

Yes. Your office items are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are being transported, and by our public liability cover for accidental damage to third-party property. Insurance operates within specific limits and conditions, which we are happy to explain before you book. We ask that you highlight any particularly high-value or sensitive items during the survey so we can confirm cover and take additional precautions to keep them safe throughout the move.

What is included in your office removals service?

Our standard service includes loading, transport and unloading of your office furniture, IT equipment, boxes and crates between the agreed addresses. We provide protective blankets, securing straps and basic tools for dismantling/reassembling standard desks and shelving where required. Optional extras include full or part packing services, supply of boxes or crates, out-of-hours moves and temporary storage solutions. Everything that is included will be detailed clearly in your quotation so you know exactly what to expect on moving day.

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

A casual man-and-van service typically offers transport only, with limited planning, equipment or insurance. A professional office removals service, like ours, provides trained teams, proper protective materials, documented procedures and appropriate insurance cover. We carry out surveys, coordinate with building management, plan access and lift usage, and ensure your IT and furniture are handled correctly. This structured approach reduces the risk of delays, damage and downtime so your staff can get back to work as quickly and safely as possible.

How far in advance should I book my office move?

For most office moves, we recommend booking at least two to four weeks in advance, particularly if you need a specific date or weekend slot. Larger or more complex relocations may require longer planning, including surveys and coordination with multiple parties. However, we understand that business needs can change quickly, so we always try to accommodate shorter notice where possible. The earlier you contact us, the more options we can offer in terms of timing, staffing levels and overall move planning.
