Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

Contact Movers Colliers Wood by phone or online and tell us about your office move: locations, size of team, key dates and any access constraints. We then provide an initial estimate or arrange a survey. Our pricing is transparent, with no hidden extras for standard work agreed in advance.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most office removals, we recommend an onsite survey in Colliers Wood or at your new premises. A surveyor will walk through your office, assess furniture, IT, stairs/lifts, parking and any specialist equipment. For smaller or simple layouts, a video survey can work well. This step allows us to allocate the right crew, vehicles, materials and time.

3. Packing & Preparation

Depending on your preference, we offer:

• Full packing service – we supply crates/boxes, pack contents and label by department, desk or area
• Part packing – we handle fragile, IT and complex items; your team packs personal effects
• Crate hire only – we deliver and collect crates so your staff can pack themselves

We also plan dismantling of desks and shelving where needed and agree a labelling system so everything lands in the right place at the new office.

4. Loading & Transport

On move day, our trained team arrives on time, protects floors and communal areas, and begins loading. We use trolleys, skates, ramps and protective covers to move items safely and quietly through your building. Vehicles are packed securely to protect IT and furniture in transit. All moves are covered by our goods in transit insurance.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new premises, we unload according to the agreed floor plan and labels. Desks and furniture are reassembled, crates are placed at the right workstations, and key items such as reception, meeting rooms and IT areas are prioritised so you can start operating quickly. We can return later to collect empty crates once unpacking is complete.

Transparent Pricing for Office Removals

Every office move is different, so we price each job individually. Our quotes are based on:

• Volume of furniture and equipment
• Number of staff/desk positions
• Access, parking and distance between sites
• Required packing services and materials
• Timing (weekday, evening, overnight, weekend)

You will receive a written quote that clearly lists what is included. Any optional extras, such as storage or additional packing support, are shown separately so you can choose what suits your budget and timescale.

Why Use Professional Office Movers Instead of DIY or Man-and-Van

Attempting an office move with a casual man-and-van or by asking staff to help may appear cheaper, but it often leads to lost working time, damage, and extended disruption. A professional removals company brings:

• Experienced, professional crews used to handling IT and heavy items safely
• Structured planning to minimise downtime
• Appropriate vehicles, handling gear and protective materials
• Insurance coverage that informal options rarely provide
• Clear accountability and a named contact throughout the move

For organisations that depend on continuity and compliance, professional office removals are the safer, more efficient choice.

Insurance and Professional Standards

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

• Goods in transit insurance to cover your office contents while being moved
• Public liability cover for work in your building and shared areas
• Trained moving teams with manual handling and equipment training
• Careful risk assessments for complex or multi-site moves

We are happy to provide proof of insurance and method statements on request, which is often required by building management and larger organisations.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat your office contents as if they were our own. Floors, lifts and walls are protected where needed, IT is wrapped and secured, and furniture is handled using appropriate lifting techniques.

We also pay attention to our environmental impact. Where possible we use reusable crates rather than single-use cardboard, recycle packing materials, and optimise routing to reduce unnecessary mileage. If you are clearing an office, we can discuss ethical disposal or reuse of surplus furniture and equipment.

Real-World Office Removals Use Cases

Moving to a New Office in Colliers Wood

For businesses upsizing or downsizing locally, we can phase your move so that key departments transfer in stages. This helps you remain operational while the new space is being set up.

Relocating Out of London or Between Cities

If you are leaving Colliers Wood for another UK city, we organise longer-distance transport and can provide short-term storage if your new premises are not ready on the same day.

Urgent or Short-Notice Office Moves

Lease changes, building issues or rapid growth can sometimes force a quick move. Where our schedule allows, we can arrange urgent removals at short notice, including evenings or weekends, to meet critical deadlines.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do office removals in Colliers Wood cost?

The cost of an office removal in Colliers Wood depends on several factors: the size of your office, the number of workstations, the volume of furniture and equipment, access at both sites, and whether you require packing services or crate hire. Local moves for smaller offices may be completed within a day, while larger relocations can be phased over several days. After a survey, we provide a clear, itemised quotation with no hidden charges for the agreed scope of work.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?

Where our schedule permits, we can support same-day or short-notice office removals in Colliers Wood and the surrounding areas. Urgent moves typically require a streamlined service, with minimal packing provided by us and more responsibility on your team. We will discuss your deadline, building access and essential priorities, then advise what can realistically be achieved. If full packing or weekend working is required, we will include this in a tailored quote so you can decide on the level of support that best suits your situation.

Are my office items 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 in and around your premises. Our aim is always to prevent damage through good planning, careful packing and correct handling, but insurance is there for additional peace of mind. We can provide policy details and limits upon request, and we recommend that you maintain your own business insurance to cover areas outside our direct control, such as data or consequential loss.

What is included in your office removals service?

Our standard office removals service includes a survey, planning support, provision of a trained removals team, vehicles, protective equipment and the loading, transport and unloading of agreed items between addresses. You can add options such as full or part packing, crate hire, furniture dismantling and reassembly, storage, and out-of-hours working. All inclusions will be set out clearly in your written quotation so you know exactly what to expect on move day and can plan your own staff tasks around our work.

How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?

A professional removals service brings structured planning, trained staff, specialist equipment and formal insurance. We survey your office in advance, allocate the right number of movers and vehicles, and protect floors, lifts and IT equipment. A casual man-and-van may not have the capacity, experience or cover to handle complex office moves safely. For businesses, the cost of extended downtime, damaged equipment or breach of building rules can quickly outweigh any initial saving, which is why many offices choose a dedicated removals company.

How far in advance should I book my office removal?

For most office moves, we recommend making contact at least four to six weeks before your preferred moving date. This allows time for surveys, building permissions, crate deliveries and staff communications. Larger or multi-phase relocations may require longer planning. However, we understand that not all moves come with much notice, and we will always try to accommodate shorter lead times where our diary allows. The earlier you book, the more flexibility we have on dates, crew size and any out-of-hours or weekend working you may need.
