Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Initial Quote

You contact us with basic details: current and new addresses, access information, approximate size of your office and preferred moving dates. Based on this information, we provide an initial, no-obligation estimate and explain the options available, including out-of-hours or weekend moves to minimise disruption.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

Next, we arrange a detailed survey, either virtual (via video call and photos) or onsite for larger or more complex offices. We assess:

Furniture quantities and layout
IT and equipment needs
Access, lifts, stairs and parking
Any dismantling or reassembly required

Following the survey, you receive a clear, written quote outlining what is included.

3. Packing & Preparation

We can provide a full or partial packing service, or supply materials if you prefer to pack yourself. Our trained team uses commercial-grade boxes, crates, and protection for IT and furniture. We can:

Dismantle desks and workstations where needed
Label crates and furniture by department, room or staff member
Protect monitors, glass, artwork and sensitive equipment

Clear labelling and preparation help ensure your new office is set up correctly and quickly.

4. Loading & Transport

On move day, we arrive at the agreed time and carry out a brief walkthrough with you. We then carefully load items in a safe, logical order, securing them in our purpose-equipped vehicles. All transport is covered by goods in transit insurance, and our crews follow strict handling procedures for computers, servers and specialist equipment.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new premises, we unload and place items according to the agreed floor plan. We can:

Reassemble desks and furniture we dismantled
Position workstations, meeting rooms and reception areas
Place labelled crates in the correct departments or rooms

Before we leave, we invite you to walk through and confirm you are happy with the placement and condition of your items.

Transparent Office Removals Pricing

We believe in clear, honest pricing. Our office removals in Paddington are usually priced based on:

Volume and type of furniture and equipment
Access at both properties (lifts, stairs, distance to vehicle)
Number of staff and vehicles required
Level of packing service and materials needed
Timing (standard hours, evenings, nights or weekends)

Your written quote will detail what is included, any optional extras, and how any changes to scope would be handled. There are no hidden charges – everything is agreed with you in advance.

Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY

Attempting a DIY office move or using a casual man-and-van can seem cheaper, but often leads to longer downtime, damaged equipment and health and safety risks. With Man with Van Paddington, you benefit from:

Trained teams who move offices every day
Correct lifting, handling and loading techniques
Proper protection and specialist equipment for IT and furniture
Fully insured transport and public liability cover
Structured planning to minimise disruption to your operations

In most cases, the cost of lost working time or damaged kit far outweighs the saving from a DIY approach.

Insurance & Professional Standards

We take our responsibility for your office belongings seriously. Our service includes:

Goods in transit insurance for items we are carrying
Public liability cover for work on your premises
Trained and vetted moving teams following safe working practices
Use of appropriate vehicles, securing systems and protective materials

Policy details and limits are available on request, and we are happy to work with your own insurers or facilities team if specific documentation is required.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We approach every office move with care, attention to detail and respect for your working environment. Floors, walls and lifts can be protected where necessary, and we plan routes to keep disruption to other tenants to a minimum.

Our sustainability approach includes:

Reusing sturdy crates and recyclable packing materials where suitable
Encouraging clients to declutter and recycle unused items
Planning efficient routes to reduce unnecessary mileage

We can also assist with responsible disposal of unwanted office furniture and equipment via licensed partners.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do office removals in Paddington cost?

Pricing depends on the size of your office, the quantity of furniture and IT equipment, the access at both ends, and whether you need packing services. Smaller office moves within Paddington can sometimes be completed within a single vehicle and crew, while larger multi-floor relocations require more planning and resources. After a survey, we provide a clear, fixed quote detailing what is included. This way you know exactly what you are paying for and can budget accurately, without worrying about hidden extras on move day.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?

Where possible, we do accommodate same-day or short-notice office removals in Paddington. Availability will depend on the scale of the move, existing bookings and access constraints at your buildings. Smaller or part-office moves are usually easier to arrange at short notice. For anything urgent, the best approach is to call us with full details so we can quickly assess what is realistic, suggest options, and give you an honest answer on timescales and cost before you commit.

Are my office items insured during the move?

Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while we are transporting them, and we also hold public liability cover for work at your premises. These policies are designed to protect you in the unlikely event of an incident. We still handle every item as if it were our own, using protection, careful loading and trained crews. If you have high-value or unusual equipment, let us know in advance so we can confirm coverage and, if needed, agree any additional arrangements.

What exactly is included in your office removals service?

Our standard office removals service includes the supply of a suitable vehicle, a trained removal team, loading, transportation and unloading at your new premises. We also include basic protection for furniture and equipment. Optional extras include packing and unpacking, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, supply of crates and boxes, and disposal of unwanted items through licensed partners. Before the move, we agree a detailed scope so you are clear about what we are doing and what, if anything, you or your team will handle yourselves.

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

A casual man-and-van service will typically provide transport and basic loading, but may not offer trained staff, planning support, dismantling, protection or formal insurance suitable for office moves. Our service is designed specifically for businesses: we carry out surveys, allocate the right team, protect IT and furniture, coordinate with building management, and work to minimise downtime. With professional standards, clear communication and appropriate cover, you reduce the risk of damage, delays and disruption to your operations.

How far in advance should I book my office removal?

For a smooth office move, we recommend booking as early as possible – ideally 3–6 weeks in advance for small to medium offices, and longer for large or multi-phase relocations. This allows time for surveys, planning, crate delivery and liaison with your building managers. However, we understand that business needs can change quickly, so we always try to help with shorter timescales where we have availability. The earlier you get in touch, the more options we can offer on dates, timing and cost.
