Who Our Office Removals Service Is For

While this page focuses on office removals, our service is suitable for a wide range of customers in and around Deptford:

Homeowners

Moving a home office or running a business from home? We can move desks, filing cabinets, IT equipment and stock as part of a wider house move or as a separate job.

Renters

If you’re renting a workspace or co-working office, we can move you between locations quickly, protecting both your items and the property so you can hand it back in good condition.

Landlords and Managing Agents

We work with landlords and property managers who need offices cleared, part-cleared or reconfigured between tenancies, including removal and safe disposal of unwanted furniture.

From start-ups to established companies, we support office relocations, internal moves, floor-to-floor moves and decants for refurbishments, always focusing on minimising downtime.

Students and Small Set-Ups

Running a micro-business or studio from student or shared accommodation? We can move your work equipment and personal items together in a cost-effective, well-organised move.

What We Can Move in an Office Removal

We handle most typical office contents, including:

• Desks, chairs, boardroom tables and reception furniture
• Filing cabinets, cupboards, shelving and racking (emptied or secured)
• Desktop computers, monitors, laptops, printers, copiers and peripherals
• Servers, network hardware and telecoms (once disconnected by your IT team)
• Confidential files, archives and records – packed securely and clearly labelled
• Kitchen appliances such as kettles, microwaves and small fridges
• Office décor, whiteboards, noticeboards and artwork

Items We Cannot or Typically Do Not Move

For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from standard office removals:

• Hazardous materials (chemicals, gas cylinders, fuel, solvents)
• Illegal or controlled items
• Large industrial machinery requiring specialist lifting or certification
• Cash, high-value jewellery or sensitive data that must remain with you
• Perishable food in bulk or items requiring refrigeration during transit

If you are unsure about any item, simply ask during the survey – we can often recommend a suitable specialist or provide guidance on safe handling.

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with the basic details: current address, destination, rough inventory, access notes and your ideal move date. We then provide a clear, no-obligation estimate outlining what’s included. Where needed, we can offer separate prices for packing services, dismantling/reassembly and out-of-hours work.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most office moves, we carry out a survey, either by video call or in person. This allows us to assess access, parking, lifts, staircases, and the volume and type of items to be moved. We identify any fragile or high-risk items and confirm timings, staffing levels and vehicle requirements for moving day.

3. Packing & Preparation

We can supply crates, boxes, labels and packing materials in advance, or provide a full packing service. Our team carefully packs IT equipment, monitors and fragile items using suitable protection. If agreed, we dismantle desks and shelving and prepare furniture for safe transport, ensuring everything is labelled by department or room.

4. Loading & Transport

On the day, our trained team arrives on time, protects floors and key areas, and systematically loads your office contents. Heavy and bulky items are carried using appropriate equipment and safe manual handling techniques. We then transport your goods in our fully insured vehicles, planning routes to avoid unnecessary delays where possible.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new office, we unload and place items into the correct rooms or areas according to your floor plan. If requested, we reassemble desks and other furniture, position equipment and stack crates ready for unpacking. We aim to leave you with a functional workspace so your team can get back to work quickly.

Transparent Pricing for Office Removals

We believe in clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. The cost of your office move is based on:

• Volume of items and number of workstations
• Travel distance between locations
• Access issues (stairs, long carries, limited parking)
• Level of service required – from transport only to full packing and set-up
• Timing – standard hours, evenings or weekends

Once we have completed your survey, you receive a written quote explaining exactly what is included. If your requirements change, we update the quote so you always know where you stand.

Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY

Trying to manage an office move yourself, or using a casual man-and-van service, can lead to delays, damage and unexpected downtime. With Man with Van Deptford you get:

• Professional planning and coordination, reducing disruption
• Correct packing and handling of IT and fragile equipment
• Appropriate vehicles, tools and protective materials
• Clear timelines and a structured approach to each phase of the move
• Proper insurance cover so your assets are protected

In most cases, the cost of a well-managed professional move is far less than the cost of lost working time and damaged equipment.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Your business equipment and records are valuable, so protection is essential. Our office removals are backed by:

• Goods in transit insurance to cover your items while they are being moved
• Public liability cover for peace of mind in shared buildings and offices
• Trained, experienced removal teams following safe working practices

We work carefully but realistically – if we spot a potential risk, we discuss it with you and agree a sensible solution before proceeding. Everything we do is aimed at keeping your move safe, compliant and well-managed.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat your office as if it were our own. On every move we:

• Use padded covers and wraps for desks, cabinets and doors where appropriate
• Protect floors, lifts and walls in high-traffic areas
• Use sturdy crates and boxes to reduce the risk of damage in transit
• Encourage re-use of crates and recyclable packing materials wherever possible

We plan vehicle loading to reduce unnecessary journeys and make efficient use of space, helping to cut down on emissions and waste. Our goal is to move you efficiently while taking sensible, practical steps that are better for the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does an office removal in Deptford cost?

The cost depends on the size of your office, the volume of items, access at both addresses and the distance travelled. Smaller office moves within Deptford are often priced on a fixed fee, while larger or more complex relocations may be quoted after a full survey. Additional services such as packing, dismantling and out-of-hours working will be itemised separately. Once we have all the details, we provide a clear written quote so you know exactly what is included and can budget with confidence.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office removals?

We can often accommodate same-day or urgent office removals in Deptford, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. For smaller offices or partial moves, we may be able to respond at very short notice. For larger relocations, we will still aim to mobilise quickly, prioritising critical equipment, documents and workstations so you can continue operating. The best approach is to call us as soon as you know you need to move, and we will outline the realistic options and costs.

What insurance cover do you provide for office moves?

All office removals we undertake are covered by goods in transit insurance, which protects your items while they are being loaded, transported and unloaded. We also carry public liability cover, which is important in shared buildings and busy commercial environments. Our team is trained to handle office equipment correctly, and we use appropriate packing and protection. We will explain the key terms and any limits of cover before your move, so you remain in control of how higher-value items are managed.

What is included in your office removals service?

Our standard office removals service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional moving team, loading, safe transport and unloading at the new address. We place items into the rooms or areas you specify and can position desks and furniture to an agreed plan. Optional extras include packing, supply of crates and packing materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture and out-of-hours or weekend moves. Everything that is included will be clearly shown on your quote, so there are no surprises on the day.

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

A basic man-and-van service often focuses purely on transport, with limited planning, protection and cover. Our office removals are fully planned and managed: we carry out a survey, create a schedule, provide the right team and equipment, and include appropriate insurance. We are used to working in commercial buildings, coordinating with reception, security and other contractors. This structured approach reduces downtime, damage risk and stress, which is especially important when moving IT equipment, confidential files and multiple staff.

How far in advance should I book an office move?

For the smoothest experience, we recommend booking your office removal at least two to four weeks in advance, especially if you need a weekend or evening slot. This gives enough time to carry out a survey, plan the layout of your new space and arrange packing and crate delivery. However, we understand that business plans can change quickly, so we always try to accommodate shorter notice where possible. The earlier you get in touch, the more options we can offer for dates and timings.
