What We Usually Exclude
Some items require specialist contractors or prior agreement. Typically excluded are:

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quotation
You contact us with basic details: current address, destination, size of office, access information and your ideal move date. We then outline options and provide an initial estimate or arrange a more detailed survey if the move is larger or more complex.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
We carry out a virtual video survey or an onsite visit in Arnos Grove to assess volume, access, parking and any specialist items. This allows us to recommend the right number of movers, vehicles and packing materials. After the survey, we provide a clear, written quote with no hidden extras based on the agreed scope.
3. Packing & Preparation
Before moving day, we can supply crates, boxes and labels for your team, or provide a full packing service where our movers pack all office contents. We label crates and furniture clearly by department or room, ensuring everything can be placed correctly at the new office. IT equipment is packed with extra protection and clearly marked.
4. Loading & Transport
On move day, our trained crew arrive on time with all necessary equipment: trolleys, dollies, floor protection and furniture blankets. We protect lifts, doorways and high-traffic areas before carefully loading your items. Everything is secured for transit in our purpose-equipped vehicles, covered by goods in transit insurance.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new premises, we unload in a planned order, placing items into the right rooms or departments as agreed in advance. Desks and furniture are reassembled where required, and we position workstations to your layout plan so your team can get back to work quickly. We remove any packing materials we supplied, leaving your new office tidy.
Transparent Pricing for Office Removals
We aim to keep pricing straightforward and fair. Office removals are usually costed based on:
- Volume of furniture and equipment
- Number of movers required
- Distance between locations
- Access complexity (stairs, lifts, restricted loading)
- Additional services such as packing, crate hire or out-of-hours work
All costs are clearly itemised in your written quotation. If your brief changes – for example, you add extra storage or a second move date – we discuss and confirm any price adjustments before work goes ahead.
Why Choose Professional Office Removers Instead of DIY
While it may be tempting to borrow a van and ask staff to help, a DIY move can be time-consuming, risky and disruptive. Professional office removals offer:
- Trained teams who know how to move furniture and IT safely
- Proper equipment to protect your building, staff and assets
- Planned schedules to reduce downtime and maintain operations
- Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
- Compliance with health and safety standards your business must meet
Compared with a casual man-and-van, you gain detailed planning, reliable staffing levels, documented insurance, and a structured process specifically geared towards business continuity.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We operate to recognised professional standards to protect your business throughout the move:
- Goods in transit insurance – covering your office contents while they are in our vehicles.
- Public liability cover – protecting you and your premises in the unlikely event of an incident.
- Trained moving teams – our crews receive ongoing training in manual handling, packing and customer care.
Details of our insurance cover can be provided with your quote, and we are happy to share documentation with your building management or risk team where required.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your office equipment and premises with care. Floors, walls and lifts are protected, and all items are wrapped or blanket-covered where needed. Fragile IT and electronics receive extra padding and are loaded securely to avoid movement in transit.
We use reusable plastic crates where possible, recycle cardboard and packing materials responsibly, and plan routes to reduce unnecessary mileage. Where offices are downsizing, we can help separate items for recycling, donation or disposal via licensed waste partners.
Real-World Use Cases
- Office relocation – Moving an entire office from Arnos Grove to another part of London over a weekend, allowing staff to arrive Monday to a fully set-up workspace.
- Moving house with a home office – Combining a residential move with the careful relocation of computers, files and office furniture.
- Urgent moves – Short-notice relocations following lease changes, building issues or rapid expansion, subject to availability.
- Landlord clearances – Clearing outgoing tenants’ office furniture and equipment in preparation for refurbishment or new tenants.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do office removals in Arnos Grove cost?
The cost of an office removal in Arnos Grove depends on the size of your office, the volume of furniture and equipment, access at both sites, and the distance travelled. Smaller offices might be completed in a single vehicle with a small team, while larger moves can require multiple vehicles and staggered move dates. After a survey, we provide a clear fixed-price quotation based on your actual requirements, including any packing, crate hire or out-of-hours work you choose. There are no hidden extras when the agreed scope stays the same.
Can you handle same-day or urgent office removals?
We can often accommodate urgent or short-notice office removals in Arnos Grove, depending on existing bookings and the scale of the move. Smaller offices and partial moves are more feasible at short notice than large multi-floor relocations. If you need to move quickly, contact us as soon as possible with your dates, addresses and a rough idea of what needs moving. We will confirm availability, suggest practical options and prioritise essential items so your core operations can continue with minimal disruption.
Are my office items insured during the move?
Yes. Your office contents are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicles, and we carry public liability cover for work on-site. This provides protection for your business in the unlikely event of loss or damage caused by us. We can explain the key limits and exclusions before you book, and provide documentation for your records or building management if required. For particularly high-value or specialist items, we may recommend you check any additional cover under your own business insurance policy.
What exactly is included in your office removals service?
Our standard office removals service includes loading, transport and unloading of agreed items between your old and new premises. We protect furniture, equipment and building surfaces, dismantle and reassemble basic furniture where required, and place items into the correct rooms or departments. You can add services such as packing, crate hire, IT equipment packing, and out-of-hours or weekend moves. All inclusions are listed in your written quote so you know precisely what is covered. If you need anything beyond the standard service, we will discuss options with you in advance.
How is a professional office removal different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van can be useful for light, simple jobs, but office removals demand more planning and protection. With us, you get trained crews, suitable vehicles, protective materials and documented insurance. We carry out surveys, coordinate with building management, protect communal areas and follow agreed schedules that fit around your business. Our focus is not just moving items from A to B, but doing so safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption to your staff and clients, which basic transport-only services rarely provide.
How far in advance should I book an office removal?
For most office moves in Arnos Grove, we recommend booking at least two to four weeks in advance, especially if you need a specific date, weekend slot or out-of-hours service. Larger or more complex relocations may benefit from even longer lead times to allow surveys, crate deliveries and coordination with your IT and facilities teams. That said, we understand that not every move can be planned far ahead, so we always try to help with short-notice enquiries where our schedule allows.
