Who Our Same Day Removals Service Is For

Homeowners

Ideal if your completion date has moved forward, your original mover has cancelled, or you simply need to be out of your property today. We handle everything from small one-bed flats to family homes.

Renters

Perfect when a tenancy ends suddenly, a landlord changes plans, or you have left moving a little late. We can move you quickly, while still protecting walls, floors and furniture.

Landlords & Letting Agents

When you need a property cleared between tenancies or at short notice, our professional team works efficiently and respectfully, keeping you updated throughout.

Businesses

We move small offices, shops and workspaces in and around Westcombe Park, including out-of-hours moves to minimise disruption. Desks, chairs, stock, IT equipment and archive boxes can all be handled within a same day removals schedule where feasible.

Students

Whether you’re moving into halls, changing house mid-year or heading home, our affordable, flexible service is ideal for smaller loads and shared accommodation.

What We Can and Cannot Move

Items Typically Included

• Household furniture – beds, sofas, tables, chairs, wardrobes
• White goods – washing machines, fridges, freezers (subject to access and weight)
• Boxes, suitcases, bags and personal belongings
• Office furniture, file boxes, stock and equipment
• Electronics – TVs, computers, printers and audio equipment
• Bicycles, small gardening tools and outdoor furniture

Items Excluded or Requiring Prior Agreement

• Hazardous materials – fuel, gas cylinders, paint, chemicals
• Illegal or stolen goods
• Unusually heavy items requiring specialist equipment (e.g. grand pianos, safes) unless agreed in advance
• Live animals – we can transport cages or tanks empty, but not pets themselves
• Valuables such as cash, important documents or jewellery – we recommend you carry these personally

If you’re unsure about a particular item, we’ll advise clearly during the initial enquiry so there are no surprises on the day.

Our Step-by-Step Same Day Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quick Quote

Contact us as early in the day as possible by phone or online. We’ll ask key questions about addresses, access, floors, lift availability, volume of items and timing. For straightforward jobs, we can often give a clear, fixed or hourly rate quote immediately.

2. Rapid Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For larger or more complex moves, we may carry out a quick video call survey to assess volume, parking and any tricky items. This step allows us to send the right size vehicle and the right number of trained movers, avoiding delays later.

3. Packing & Preparation

Where possible, we ask you to have items boxed and ready. If you need help on the day, our team can provide professional packing support, basic dismantling of beds and wardrobes, and protective wrapping for TVs, glass and mirrors. We use blankets, straps and covers to keep everything secure in transit.

4. Loading & Transport

Our moving team will plan the load carefully, placing heavier items at the bottom and protecting delicate pieces. We work systematically to avoid damage to both your belongings and the property. Once loaded, we travel directly to your new address, using routes that suit local traffic conditions in and around Westcombe Park.

5. Unloading & Placement

On arrival, we unload into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it and stacking boxes safely. Where agreed, we can reassemble basic furniture and position appliances ready for connection. Before we leave, we’ll check you’re happy with everything and that nothing has been missed.

Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals

Same day and urgent moves require careful planning, but our pricing remains fair and transparent. We usually quote based on:

• Volume of items and size of vehicle required
• Number of movers needed
• Distance between addresses
• Access issues – stairs, long carries, parking restrictions
• Optional extras – packing, materials, furniture assembly

You will always know in advance whether your move is on a fixed price or hourly rate. There are no hidden charges for stairs or fuel; any potential extras (such as congestion charges or extended waiting times) are explained clearly before you book.

Why Choose a Professional Removals Team Over DIY

Last-minute moves are stressful enough without worrying about hiring a van, lifting heavy furniture or relying on friends who may not be available. Using a professional removals team offers clear advantages:

• Trained movers who know how to handle heavy and fragile items safely
• Goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are being moved
• Efficient loading that maximises space and reduces the risk of damage
• Proper equipment – trolleys, blankets, straps and protective covers
• Reduced risk of personal injury from lifting or carrying awkward items

Unlike casual man-and-van operators, Man with Van Westcombe Park operates to clear standards, offers written confirmations and maintains appropriate insurance cover.

Insurance & Professional Standards

We take our responsibilities seriously. Our service includes:

• Goods in transit insurance – protecting your belongings while they’re in our vehicle
• Public liability cover – for peace of mind in and around your property
• Trained, experienced teams – skilled in lifting, packing and handling fragile items
• Well-maintained, clean vehicles suitable for household and office moves

We treat each move with the same care, whether it’s a few items across Westcombe Park or a full household to another part of London or the UK.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Even on urgent moves, we prioritise the protection of your belongings and property. We use:

• Removal blankets and furniture pads to prevent scuffs and scratches
• Mattress and sofa covers (where required) to keep items clean
• Floor protection in high-traffic areas, especially in wet weather

We also aim to work in a more sustainable way by:

• Reusing durable packing materials where appropriate
• Planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage
• Encouraging customers to recycle or donate unwanted items rather than discard them

Real-World Same Day Removals Use Cases

Moving House at Short Notice

Completion dates change, chains collapse and buyers’ plans move unexpectedly. We regularly help Westcombe Park homeowners who discover they need to be out far sooner than planned. Our team can step in when other movers cannot accommodate a last-minute date.

Urgent Office or Shop Relocation

For small offices and independent retailers, lost trading time is costly. We can often move you outside normal working hours, including evenings, to reduce downtime. Desks, stock and IT equipment are loaded carefully and set down where you need them in the new premises.

Student and Shared House Moves

Students often face tight deadlines at the start and end of term. We provide a reliable alternative to borrowing cars or relying on friends, with a clear arrival time and enough space for all your belongings.

Landlord & Letting Agent Emergencies

Occasionally a property must be cleared at short notice to prepare for new tenants or works. We work closely with landlords and agents in Westcombe Park to clear properties efficiently, itemise what is removed and minimise disruption to neighbours.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a same day removals service cost?

Pricing depends on how much you’re moving, the distance between addresses and how many movers are required. Smaller flat or student moves within Westcombe Park are often charged at an hourly rate, while larger house or office moves may be quoted at a fixed price. Factors such as parking, stairs and any packing or assembly services will also affect the cost. We’ll give you a clear, no-obligation quote before you commit, so you know exactly what you’re paying for and can compare options sensibly.

Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?

We do our best to accommodate genuine same day requests, especially within Westcombe Park and the local area. Availability depends on existing bookings, the size of your move and how far we need to travel. Calling early in the day gives us more flexibility to arrange a suitable vehicle and team. If we cannot complete the entire move the same day, we may suggest a part-move or an early slot the following morning. We will always be upfront about what is realistically achievable.

Are my belongings insured during the move?

Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance that covers your belongings while they are in our vehicle, as well as public liability cover for work in and around your property. There are standard limitations, such as exclusions for certain high-value items unless declared, and for items packed by the customer if poorly packed. We’ll explain the key terms in plain language before you book. For particularly valuable or unusual items, we may recommend additional cover or specific packing arrangements for peace of mind.

What is included in your same day removals service?

As standard, we provide a suitably sized vehicle, a team of trained movers, loading, safe transport and unloading at your new address. We’ll place furniture and boxes in the rooms you choose and use protective blankets and straps to secure items in the van. Optional extras, depending on time and availability, include packing assistance, supply of packing materials, disassembly and reassembly of furniture, and the removal of basic packaging waste. Everything included will be listed clearly in your quote so you know exactly what to expect on the day.

What’s the difference between your service and a basic man-and-van?

A casual man-and-van often offers simple transport only, with limited protection for your belongings and no formal insurance. Our service is run as a professional removals operation: trained staff, appropriate insurance, proper equipment and a structured process from quote to completion. We focus on careful planning, safe lifting, protection of furniture and properties, and clear communication. This becomes especially important on same day moves, where there is little room for error and you need the move completed safely and on time.

How far in advance should I book?

For planned moves, booking one to two weeks ahead is ideal, especially at weekends or month-end. For same day removals, contact us as soon as you know you need to move. The earlier you call, the easier it is for us to schedule a vehicle and team, assess your requirements and avoid any last-minute problems. Even if your timing is uncertain, it’s worth discussing options so we can pencil you in and be ready to move quickly when your plans are confirmed.
