• Landlords needing properties cleared or part-cleared between tenancies

• Students moving into or out of halls and shared accommodation

Whether you need a full move with packing, or simply a reliable team to load, transport and unload, we tailor the job to your situation and budget.

What Our House Removals Service Includes

Items Typically Included

We routinely handle most household items, including:

• Sofas, armchairs, tables, chairs and other furniture
• Beds, wardrobes, chests of drawers and bedroom furniture
• White goods: fridges, freezers, washing machines, dryers and cookers
• TVs, audio equipment, computers and other electronics
• Boxes of personal belongings, books, clothes and kitchenware
• Garden furniture, barbecues and outdoor equipment (where accessible)

We can also provide packing services and materials on request, from full packing to partial packing for fragile items only.

Items We Cannot Move

For safety, legal and insurance reasons, certain items are excluded from our standard service:

• Hazardous or flammable materials (petrol, gas cylinders, solvents, paints)
• Illegal goods or items that breach regulations
• Unsealed perishable food and open liquids that may leak
• Live animals or pets (we can advise on specialist pet transport)
• Very high-value items without prior declaration and agreement

If you are unsure about a specific item, ask us in advance; we will confirm whether we can move it or recommend an alternative solution.

Our Step-by-Step House Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

Everything starts with a quick conversation. You can call, email or complete our online form. We will ask about your current and new addresses, property size, access details and preferred moving date. Based on this information, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote with a breakdown of what is included so you know exactly what to expect.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a survey. This can be a video call or an onsite visit, depending on your preference and the complexity of the job. The survey lets us accurately assess volume, access, parking, any dismantling required and special items such as pianos or large wardrobes. This ensures the correct vehicle size, crew and time are allocated.

3. Packing & Preparation

You can choose between:

• Full packing service – we supply materials and pack everything
• Partial packing – we pack fragile or high-value items only
• Self-packing – you pack; we supply boxes and materials if needed

We label boxes clearly by room, protect furniture with blankets and covers, and dismantle agreed items such as beds and wardrobes. Preparation is key to a smooth moving day.

4. Loading & Transport

On moving day, our professional team arrives on time, confirms the plan with you and begins loading. We use trolleys, ramps and lifting techniques to protect both your belongings and the property. Items are secured safely in the vehicle to prevent movement in transit. We then transport your goods directly to your new home, using the best available route.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new property, we unload room by room as directed. Furniture is placed where you want it, and any items we dismantled are reassembled as agreed. We position boxes in the correct rooms, helping you start the unpacking process in an organised way. Before leaving, we check you are satisfied and that nothing has been overlooked.

Transparent Pricing – How Our Charges Work

We believe in simple, transparent pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes are based on:

• Volume of goods and size of property
• Distance between addresses
• Number of movers and vehicles required
• Level of service – for example, packing or furniture dismantling
• Access factors – stairs, long carries, parking restrictions

We can offer fixed-price quotes for clearly defined jobs, or hourly rates for smaller or more flexible moves. All costs are explained in writing before you book, so you can budget with confidence.

Why Choose Professional Removals Instead of DIY

Moving yourself or hiring a casual man-and-van may appear cheaper at first, but it often carries hidden costs and risks. With Man with Van East Sheen, you benefit from:

• Trained movers who know how to handle heavy and fragile items safely
• Proper tools, equipment and protective materials
• Efficient loading and unloading, reducing time and disruption
• Fully insured services for peace of mind
• A clear plan, timings and point of contact from start to finish

DIY moves can lead to damage, injury and unexpected hire charges. Using a professional removals team helps protect both your belongings and your own health.

Insurance & Professional Standards

Your belongings are important, and we treat them that way. Our service includes:

• Goods in transit insurance to protect your items while they are being moved
• Public liability cover for accidents or damage to third-party property
• Trained, experienced staff following recognised handling practices

We work to clear, professional standards: turning up on time, working carefully, maintaining clean vehicles and respecting both your old and new homes. If you have particular insurance requirements, we are happy to discuss them in advance.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We handle your possessions as if they were our own. This includes:

• Using protective blankets, mattress covers and shrink wrap where needed
• Securing furniture and appliances to prevent movement in transit
• Labelling and separating fragile items for extra care

We also aim to work in a more sustainable way by reusing robust packing materials where appropriate, offering reusable crates for some moves, and planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage. When you no longer need boxes, we can often collect and reuse them, reducing waste.

Real-World Use Cases

Moving House

From one-bedroom flats to multi-storey family homes, we manage the full process, including packing, dismantling and reassembly, and careful placement at the new address.

Office and Home-Office Moves

We carry out smaller office and home-office relocations, moving desks, chairs, IT equipment and files with minimal downtime. Weekend and evening moves are possible by arrangement.

Urgent and Same-Week Moves

Sometimes moves happen at short notice – chain changes, tenancy deadlines or sudden job relocations. Being local to East Sheen, we can often accommodate same-day or short-notice bookings, subject to availability. Contact us as soon as possible and we will do our best to fit you in.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a house removal in East Sheen cost?

The cost depends on several factors: property size, volume of belongings, distance between addresses, access, and whether you need packing or dismantling. Smaller flat moves within East Sheen may be priced on an hourly basis, while larger house moves are usually quoted at a fixed price after a survey. We provide a clear written quotation with all known charges listed, so you can compare options and budget accurately. There is no charge or obligation for requesting a quote.

Can you handle same-day or urgent moves?

Yes, we can often help with same-day or urgent moves in and around East Sheen, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. If your plans have changed unexpectedly or a move has fallen through with another provider, contact us as early in the day as possible. We will assess what is required, check vehicle and crew availability, and let you know honestly what we can do. For larger properties, we may suggest a phased move over one or two days.

What insurance cover do you provide?

All our removals include goods in transit insurance, which covers your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, and public liability insurance for damage to third-party property or injury caused by our activities. Specific limits and terms apply, which we are happy to explain and confirm in writing. If you have items of particularly high value, let us know in advance so we can record them correctly and advise whether additional cover or special arrangements are recommended.

What is included in your house removals service?

Our standard service includes loading all agreed items, safe transport from your old property to your new one, and unloading and placing items into the rooms you specify. We protect furniture and key items, and we can dismantle and reassemble standard beds and similar furniture by prior agreement. Optional extras include packing services, supply of packing materials, disposal of unwanted items and out-of-hours moves. Everything that is included will be clearly listed in your written quotation before you book.

How is your service different from a basic man-and-van?

While we can offer smaller-scale moves similar to a man-and-van, our focus is on a professional, structured removals service. That means trained staff, appropriate equipment, fully insured operations, proper planning and clear communication. We carry out surveys where needed, provide written quotes, and turn up with the right crew size and vehicle for the job. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and extra costs, and offers a more reliable, stress-free experience than many casual providers.

How far in advance should I book my move?

For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking your removal as soon as you know your moving window – ideally two to four weeks in advance, especially for Fridays and month-end. However, we understand that exchange and completion dates can change at short notice. We will always try to be as flexible as possible and can often accommodate moves booked closer to the day, depending on our schedule. The earlier you contact us, the more options we can offer.
