Service overview
Commercial relocations planned around your business
What it is
Our office removals service moves businesses from one premises to another: desks, chairs, filing cabinets, other business contents, subject to discussing your requirements. We can pack for you, dismantle and reassemble office furniture, store items between premises and dispose of old furniture you're not taking. Everything is planned at a free survey and priced as a fixed quote.
Who it's for
It's for small and medium businesses, shops, studios, trades and anyone running a commercial space across Essex, London, Kent and Cambridge. Whatever the size of your proposed move, the approach is the same: survey, plan, fix the price and execute.
When you need it
Book an office move as soon as you've signed for new premises. Good planning time lets us schedule the move to suit you and reduce disruption. If your lease ends before the new space is ready, our containerised storage can bridge the gap.
Why professional help matters
Every hour your team can't work costs money. A badly run office move means lost files, damaged equipment, desks left in pieces and staff spending days unpacking instead of serving customers. A professional crew moves faster, protects equipment properly and rebuilds furniture so you're ready to work sooner.
The risks
The real cost of a disorganised office move
Office moves fail in predictable ways. Each one costs time, money or customers.
Downtime
Every day without working desks or equipment is lost revenue and frustrated clients.
Damaged equipment
Screens, computers and printers damaged in transit can be expensive and slow to replace.
Lost or mixed-up files
Unlabelled boxes mean hours of searching for important paperwork.
Staff time wasted
Asking employees to move furniture takes them away from their real jobs and risks injury.
Common mistakes to avoid
- ×Starting to plan in the final week of the lease.
- ×Not labelling boxes by room or department.
- ×Forgetting to arrange disposal of old furniture.
- ×Not checking the mover's insurance before booking.
- ×Assuming furniture will fit the new layout without measuring.

In detail
Office removals in detail
Commercial moves vary a lot. Here's how we handle the main types.
Office furniture
Desks, meeting tables, shelving and storage units are dismantled where needed, protected, moved and reassembled in your new layout.
IT and equipment
Tell us about computers, screens and printers so handling requirements can be confirmed.
Files and stock
Boxed files and stock are packed and labelled so they go to the right place at the other end. All boxes, tape and bubble wrap can be supplied.
Storage between premises
Containerised storage is available for short or long periods if your new space isn't ready or you need to declutter.
Disposal of old furniture
We hold an Environment Agency Waste Carrier Licence, so old desks, chairs and unwanted items can be taken away legally.

Pricing
Details to include in your office removals enquiry
We don't publish a one-size-fits-all price list, because no two jobs are the same. A small flat on the ground floor with parking outside is a very different job to a four-bedroom house with a narrow staircase and permit-only parking. Instead, we offer a free survey and then a free fixed quote for your exact job.
For your quote, tell us about:
- How much is moving, and how large or heavy the items are
- Access at both addresses: stairs, lifts, parking and distance from the door
- The distance between addresses
- Extras you choose, such as packing, dismantling and reassembly, storage or disposal
- Your preferred date and time, so availability can be discussed
Your fixed quote covers the agreed work. If your items, addresses, access or dates change, tell us so any quote changes can be discussed before proceeding. Payment is by bank transfer or cash.
Get ready
How to prepare for your office removals job
Discuss your requirements before the job. Before we arrive, it helps to:
- 1.Call us early with your dates, even if they're not confirmed.
- 2.Book your free survey so we can see access and anything that needs special handling.
- 3.Decide what you don't want to keep. We can take it away under our Environment Agency Waste Carrier Licence, as an agreed disposal service.
- 4.Check parking at both addresses and let us know about any restrictions.
- 5.Measure large furniture against doors and stairs at the new property, and ask whether dismantling is suitable.
- 6.Keep valuables, documents, medication and chargers with you on the day.
If anything changes, such as a completion date moving or extra items appearing, tell us as soon as you can and we'll update the plan.
