At Putney Removals, we provide reliable, carefully planned removals across Putney and the surrounding areas.

What Our Putney Removals Service Includes

Our removals service is designed to handle everything from a small flat move to a full family home or office relocation. We offer:

• Local and UK-wide household removals
• Office and commercial relocations
• Student moves to and from halls or shared houses
• Part-load and single-item moves (pianos, antiques, bulky furniture)
• Packing and unpacking services (full or part packing)
• Short and long-term storage through trusted partners

Every move is carried out by a trained, uniformed and professional team who treat your belongings as if they were their own.

Local Expertise: Why Choose a Putney-Based Removals Company

Working in Putney every day means we know the area extremely well. From Victorian terraces near the High Street to riverside apartments and mansion blocks off Upper Richmond Road, we understand the access challenges, staircases, lifts and parking rules you’re likely to face.

We regularly liaise with local estate agents, building managers and concierge teams to arrange smooth access. This local knowledge helps us plan realistic timings, choose the right size vehicle and ensure we bring any specialist equipment required on the day.

Who Our Removals Service Is For

Homeowners

If you’re upsizing, downsizing or moving out of the area, we can manage your entire household move, including full packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture and careful protection of floors and banisters.

Renters

We help tenants move between flats and houses with minimal disruption. We can work around lift bookings, tight stairwells and restricted parking to help you hand your property back in good condition and on time.

Landlords

Landlords use us for end-of-tenancy clearances, quick turnaround moves between properties and moving furniture in or out of rental units in Putney and beyond.

Businesses

From small offices to larger commercial spaces, our office removals team can dismantle desks, move IT equipment and set everything up at your new site so your staff can get back to work quickly.

Students

We regularly move students to and from Putney, Roehampton and central London. We offer cost-effective shared or small-load moves ideal for those with fewer belongings but the same need for a fully insured, reliable service.

What We Can and Cannot Move

Items Typically Included

• All household furniture – beds, sofas, wardrobes, tables, chairs
• Electricals – TVs, computers, white goods (where safe to move)
• Personal items – clothes, books, ornaments, pictures
• Kitchenware – crockery, glassware, small appliances
• Office equipment – desks, filing cabinets, printers, archives
• Special items – pianos, artwork, antiques (by prior arrangement)

Items Excluded or by Special Arrangement

• Hazardous materials – gas bottles, fuel, chemicals, paint thinners
• Live animals and pets
• Illegal or stolen goods
• Valuables such as cash, jewellery and important documents (we recommend you transport these personally)
• Very large or specialist machinery without prior survey

If you are unsure whether an item can be moved, we will clarify this during your survey so there are no surprises on the day.

Our Step-by-Step Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

Contact Putney Removals by phone or online with your move details. We’ll ask about your current and new addresses, property type, number of rooms and any special items. Based on this, we provide an initial, no-obligation estimate and suggest the best options for your move.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For anything beyond a very small move, we recommend a survey. This can be done via video call or onsite in Putney and surrounding areas. We assess access, parking, lift use, volumes and any dismantling required. This allows us to provide a clear, written quote and plan the right team and vehicle.

3. Packing & Preparation

You can choose between:

• Full packing service – we bring all materials and pack everything for you
• Part packing – we pack fragile or high-value items; you pack the rest
• Packing yourself – we can supply quality boxes, tape and wrapping

We label boxes clearly by room and contents, and protect furniture with covers and wrap to minimise the risk of damage.

4. Loading & Transport

On moving day, our trained team arrives on time, walks through the plan with you, and begins loading. Floors, doors and banisters are protected as needed. Items are loaded in a safe, logical order and secured in our vehicles. We then transport your belongings directly to your new property, or via storage if agreed.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new address, we unload and place furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify. If included in your quote, we reassemble items such as beds and wardrobes. Before we leave, we carry out a final check with you to make sure everything is where it should be and you’re happy with the result.

Transparent Pricing for Removals in Putney

We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Your quote is based on:

• Volume of items to be moved
• Distance between addresses
• Access and parking conditions
• Number of movers required and duration
• Optional services such as packing, materials and storage

We provide written quotations that set out exactly what is included, so you know where you stand. There are no hidden charges for stairs or fuel when these have been properly assessed at survey stage.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or a Casual Man-and-Van

Moving yourself or using an informal man-and-van may appear cheaper, but often ends up costing more in time, stress and damage. Our professional removals service offers:

• Experienced handling of fragile and heavy items
• Correct equipment – trolleys, ramps, straps, protective covers
• Fully insured service for your peace of mind
• Proper planning to avoid delays, parking issues and access problems
• Reliable timings and sufficient manpower to complete the move safely

For most people, their belongings and property are too important to risk with an unregulated, uninsured service.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Putney Removals operates to high professional standards, with robust protection in place:

• Goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are being transported
• Public liability cover in case of accidental damage to property or third parties
• Trained moving teams who follow safe lifting and loading practices

Details of our insurance cover and terms are available with every quote, and we are happy to answer any questions before you book.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We place strong emphasis on care and protection throughout your move. Furniture is wrapped or covered, mattresses are bagged if required, and delicate items are cushioned appropriately. We also strive to work in a more sustainable way by:

• Reusing and recycling boxes where suitable
• Offering crate hire as an alternative to single-use cartons
• Planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage

Our aim is to move you safely while minimising waste and environmental impact where possible.

Real-World Use Cases for Our Putney Removals Service

Moving House Within or From Putney

Whether you’re moving from a Putney flat to a family home in the suburbs or just around the corner, we handle all aspects of the move to keep disruption to a minimum, especially if you have children or work commitments.

Office and Commercial Relocations

Businesses rely on us for organised office moves, often outside normal working hours. We label and position furniture and equipment so staff can resume work quickly, reducing downtime and stress.

Urgent or Short-Notice Moves

Sometimes moves come up at short notice due to chain changes, landlord requests or job relocations. Subject to availability, we can often accommodate urgent moves in or out of Putney and provide a practical, structured service even when time is tight.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do removals in Putney typically cost?

Costs vary depending on property size, volume of belongings, distance and the level of service you choose. A small local flat move may be charged on a half-day or day-rate basis, while larger homes and offices are usually priced after a survey. Packing, materials and storage are additional, optional services. We always provide a clear written quotation before you commit, so you can see exactly what is included and compare this with your budget.

Can you handle same-day or urgent removals?

We can often help with same-day or short-notice moves, especially within Putney and nearby areas, but this depends on our schedule and vehicle availability. If your move is urgent, contact us as early in the day as possible with full details. We’ll advise honestly whether we can meet your deadline and discuss practical options, such as partial moves, split loads or temporary storage, to get you out of your property on time.

What insurance cover do you provide for removals?

We provide goods in transit insurance to protect your belongings while they are being moved, and public liability cover in case of accidental damage to property or third parties. Our team is also trained to handle items correctly to reduce the risk of issues in the first place. Full details of cover, including any limits and exclusions, are supplied with your quotation. If you have particularly high-value items, let us know so we can discuss the most appropriate arrangements.

What exactly is included in your removals service?

As standard, our removals service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional team of movers, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. We protect furniture and property as needed and place items into the rooms you specify. Optional extras include packing services, packing materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and storage. Your written quote will list all services included so you know precisely what to expect on moving day.

How is a professional removals company different from a man-and-van?

A casual man-and-van service may be fine for very small, low-risk moves, but often lacks the insurance, equipment and experience needed for full household or office relocations. As a professional removals company, we provide trained staff, planning, fully insured transport, protective materials and properly maintained vehicles. We also carry out surveys and issue written quotes, which helps avoid misunderstandings and unexpected costs on the day.

How far in advance should I book my removal in Putney?

We recommend booking as soon as you have a confirmed moving date, particularly if you’re relocating at the end of the month or during peak seasons such as summer. For most moves, two to four weeks’ notice is ideal, giving us time to carry out a survey, plan parking and organise any packing. However, we do our best to accommodate shorter notice, so it’s always worth contacting us even if your timeline is tight.
