Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & quote

You contact us with your moving dates, current and new addresses, and a brief outline of your office size and equipment. We discuss your requirements, working hours, and any building restrictions. From there we provide an initial, no-obligation estimate or arrange a more detailed survey where needed.

2. Survey (virtual or onsite)

For most office moves, we carry out a virtual or onsite survey. This lets us understand access, lifts or stairs, parking, IT setup and furniture volumes. We then confirm a fixed-price quotation (based on the agreed inventory and conditions) and propose a schedule that fits your business operations, including after-hours or weekend moves where required.

3. Packing & preparation

Before moving day, we can supply crates, boxes and labels, or provide a full packing service. Our team can dismantle desks, protect monitors and prepare IT equipment according to your instructions. Staff can pack personal items, while we handle shared areas, meeting rooms and storage spaces in an organised, labelled system.

4. Loading & transport

On the day, our trained crew arrives on time with the right-sized vehicles and materials. We protect floors and common areas, then load items in a logical order to make unloading efficient. All goods are secured in our vehicles, and transported directly to your new premises or via agreed stops, using safe and compliant driving practices.

5. Unloading & placement

At your new office, we unload and position furniture and equipment according to your floor plan. Workstations, meeting rooms and reception areas are placed first so your team can settle quickly. We reassemble dismantled furniture, stack crates where needed, and remove our used packing materials for recycling or reuse wherever possible.

Transparent Office Removals Pricing

We believe in clear, straightforward pricing for our office removals in Colliers Wood. Your quote is based on:

• Volume and type of furniture and equipment
• Access conditions at both properties (stairs, lifts, distances)
• Travel distance and estimated time
• Level of packing and preparation required
• Out-of-hours, evening or weekend work if applicable

Once we have completed a survey, we provide a written quotation outlining exactly what is included. There are no hidden extras; any potential additional charges (for example, if access is very different from what was described) are explained in advance.

Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY

Attempting to move an office yourself or relying on a casual man-and-van often leads to unexpected downtime, damage and stress. Professional office removals bring structure and accountability.

• Experienced planning reduces disruption to your operations
• Professional packing and handling protect expensive IT equipment
• Appropriate vehicles and trolleys make the move safer and faster
• Fully insured services give you financial protection
• Trained crews work efficiently around your staff and landlords

This helps your team stay focused on their work while we handle the heavy lifting, logistics and timing.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Colliers Wood Movers operates to high professional standards to protect your business assets and reputation.

• Goods in transit insurance – your items are covered while being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms.
• Public liability cover – protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage to buildings or third parties.
• Trained moving teams – our staff are experienced in commercial moves, manual handling and safe loading.

Details of cover limits and conditions are available on request, and we can work alongside your own insurers or IT providers where needed.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat your office equipment and premises with care, as if they were our own. Our crews use protective materials for doors, lifts and flooring, and secure wrapping for desks, chairs and IT equipment.

Sustainability matters too. We aim to:

• Reuse robust crates and protective materials where possible
• Recycle cardboard and packing waste responsibly
• Plan routes to reduce unnecessary mileage

This approach helps reduce the environmental impact of your move whilst maintaining a high level of protection.

Real-World Use Cases

Moving house with a home office

Many of our residential customers now have full home offices, including multiple monitors, ergonomic chairs and filing systems. We carefully dismantle, pack and rebuild these setups so you can get back to work quickly in your new property.

Office relocation within Colliers Wood

We regularly move local businesses between serviced offices, high street premises and business parks. With short travel distances, these moves can often be completed in a single day or over a weekend to minimise lost working time.

Urgent or time-sensitive moves

Sometimes leases change at short notice or you need to vacate quickly. Subject to availability, we can arrange urgent removals, prioritising essential equipment and documents so you remain operational while the rest of the move is completed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do office removals in Colliers Wood cost?

The cost of office removals depends on the volume of furniture and equipment, access at both locations, distance travelled and whether you require packing services or out-of-hours working. Smaller local moves can often be completed within a single day, while larger multi-floor relocations may need staged work. After carrying out a survey, we provide a clear, fixed-price quotation that explains exactly what is included. There are no hidden fees, and any optional extras are discussed in advance so you can plan your budget confidently.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?

We can often help with urgent or short-notice office removals, depending on vehicle and crew availability. If you have fixed deadlines from landlords or building management, contact us as soon as possible so we can assess what is achievable. In urgent situations we typically prioritise essential workstations, IT equipment and critical documents, then schedule any less urgent items separately. While same-day moves are sometimes possible, especially within Colliers Wood, early communication gives us the best chance of meeting your timescales safely and efficiently.

What insurance cover do you provide for office removals?

Our service includes goods in transit insurance for items while they are being transported in our vehicles, as well as public liability cover in case of accidental damage to property or third parties. These policies are designed to complement, not replace, your own business insurance. We encourage you to check that any particularly high-value items are declared and adequately insured. Full details of cover limits, exclusions and conditions are available on request, and we are happy to provide documentation to your facilities or risk management teams.

What is included in your office removals service?

Our standard office removals service includes the provision of vehicles, a trained removals crew, protective equipment, loading, transport and unloading at your new premises. We also protect floors and common areas, and position furniture and equipment according to your instructions. Optional extras include professional packing, crate hire, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and out-of-hours moves. All inclusions and exclusions are listed clearly in your written quotation, so you know exactly what to expect on moving day.

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

While a man-and-van can be suitable for small, simple jobs, office removals usually require more planning and protection. We provide professional crews experienced in commercial environments, use appropriate packing materials, and apply structured labelling and loading methods that keep departments organised. Our work is fully insured, risk-assessed and coordinated with building management where necessary. This reduces the chance of damage, delays or health and safety issues, and helps ensure your staff can resume work quickly with minimal disruption.

How far in advance should I book an office removal?

For most office moves, we recommend booking at least four to six weeks in advance, especially if you need a specific weekend or evening slot. This allows time for surveys, planning, packing and coordination with your IT and facilities teams. However, we understand that not all moves come with long notice periods, and we will always do our best to accommodate shorter timescales. The earlier you contact us, the more flexibility we have to tailor the schedule and resources to your exact needs.
