We safely move most standard office contents, including:
- Desks, office chairs, meeting tables and reception furniture
- Filing cabinets, cupboards, racking and shelving (dismantled where needed)
- Desktop computers, monitors, laptops, printers and photocopiers

- Large industrial machinery requiring specialist lifting
- Servers or live IT equipment that has not been properly powered down

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Initial Quote
Contact our Kentish Town office by phone or email with your move details: current and new address, approximate size of your office, key dates and any time restrictions. We provide an initial guideline estimate and advise on the most suitable time and approach – for example, out-of-hours or phased moves.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
We then carry out a detailed onsite or virtual survey. This allows us to measure access, list your furniture and equipment, understand IT and cabling constraints, and identify parking and loading issues. Based on this, we give you a fixed, itemised quotation outlining what is included, timings and any special arrangements.
3. Packing & Preparation
In the run-up to move day, we can provide a full packing service or a part-packing service, depending on your needs. Typically this includes:
- Delivery of crates, boxes and labels for staff to pack personal desk items
- Packing of files, archives and shared storage areas
- Dismantling of desks, tables and large furniture where required
- Protective wrapping of IT equipment, monitors and fragile items
4. Loading & Transport
On move day, our professional team arrives at the agreed time with appropriately sized, clean and equipped vehicles. We protect floors, lifts and doorways with covers as needed. Items are carefully loaded using trolleys and dollies, and secured in the vehicles to prevent movement during transit.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new office, we unload and place all items according to the agreed floor plan. Furniture is reassembled, and crates and boxes are set out in the correct rooms and departments. We can also collect empty crates and boxes after you have unpacked, keeping your new space tidy.
Transparent Pricing for Office Removals
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our quotes for office removals in Kentish Town are based on:
- Volume and type of furniture and equipment
- Access at both properties (stairs, lifts, distance to vehicle)
- Distance between locations
- Required labour (number of movers) and vehicles
- Optional services such as packing, crate hire and storage
You receive a written, itemised quotation with no hidden extras. If your brief changes – for example, extra items or additional floors – we discuss the impact on cost before proceeding, so you remain in control of your budget.
Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY or Man-and-Van
Moving an office is more complex than moving a few household items. A basic man-and-van may seem cheaper, but often leads to longer downtime, damaged equipment and stressed staff. With Movers Kentish Town you benefit from:
- Trained office move teams used to handling IT, files and structured moves
- Proper planning, labelling and floor plans to keep everything organised
- Specialist equipment and vehicles designed for commercial moves
- Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
- Reliable timings that allow you to coordinate IT, telecoms and staff
When you factor in the cost of lost working time, professional office removals are usually far more cost-effective than DIY approaches.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your business assets and reputation deserve proper protection. We operate to strict professional standards, including:
- Goods in transit insurance to cover your items while they are being moved
- Public liability cover for work carried out on your premises and in shared buildings
- Trained moving teams with ongoing instruction in manual handling and safe working
- Use of suitable packing materials, blankets and protective covers
- Risk assessments and method statements for larger or complex moves
We treat your equipment and documents as if they were our own, with particular care for anything containing confidential or sensitive information.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Every office move with Movers Kentish Town is carried out with care and an eye on sustainability. We:
- Use reusable plastic crates where possible to reduce cardboard waste
- Recycle packaging and unwanted furniture through approved channels
- Plan routes efficiently to minimise unnecessary mileage
- Use protective covers, floor runners and corner guards to prevent damage
Our aim is to leave both your old and new premises in good condition, while keeping environmental impact as low as reasonably practicable.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do office removals in Kentish Town cost?
The cost of an office removal depends on the size of your office, the volume of furniture and equipment, access at both sites and the distance between locations. Smaller office moves within Kentish Town may be completed within a day, while larger multi-floor moves may require a team over several days. After a survey we provide a clear, fixed quotation covering labour, vehicles, packing (if required) and any additional services such as crate hire. There are no hidden charges, and we explain any optional extras in advance.
Can you handle same-day or urgent office removals?
We understand that sometimes moves become urgent due to lease issues, building works or unexpected circumstances. Where our schedule allows, we can arrange same-day or short-notice office removals in Kentish Town and nearby areas. The more information you can provide at enquiry stage, the better we can allocate the right team and vehicles. While urgent moves may limit the amount of pre-packing we can do, we still follow safe working practices and protect your items properly. Contact us as soon as possible to discuss what is realistic.
What insurance cover do you provide for office moves?
For your peace of mind, we provide goods in transit insurance for items while they are being moved, as well as public liability cover for work carried out in and around your buildings. This covers the typical risks associated with a professionally managed office relocation. During the survey we can discuss any particularly high-value or unusual items so they are properly declared and noted on your quotation. We always encourage clients to maintain their own business insurance, especially for data, loss of earnings or specialist equipment beyond normal removals cover.
What is included in your office removals service?
Our standard service includes provision of a trained removals team, suitable vehicles, protective equipment, loading, transport and unloading at your new premises. We can also include dismantling and reassembly of standard office furniture, crate and box supply, and packing of shared areas if requested. Placement of items follows an agreed floor plan so desks, chairs and equipment end up in the correct locations. Optional extras, such as storage or disposal of unwanted items, can be added to your quote. Everything included is clearly listed so you know exactly what to expect on move day.
What’s the difference between your service and a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van service usually offers transport only, with limited planning, equipment or liability cover. Our office removals are handled by trained teams who understand business continuity, data sensitivity and building management requirements. We conduct surveys, create move plans, bring specialist equipment for IT and furniture, and hold appropriate insurance. We also coordinate with your staff and IT providers to minimise downtime. While a man-and-van might appear cheaper at first glance, for most offices the potential disruption and risk easily outweigh any small saving on the day.
How far in advance should I book an office removal?
For most office moves we recommend contacting us 4–6 weeks before your preferred move date. This gives time for surveys, planning, crate delivery and staff communication. Larger or more complex relocations may benefit from even more notice so we can coordinate with building management, IT providers and other contractors. However, we do our best to accommodate shorter timeframes where possible. Once dates are confirmed, we issue written confirmation so you can plan around it with confidence. Early booking also increases the chance of securing your preferred weekend or evening slot.
