Who Our Earls Court Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
Whether you are upsizing to a family home or downsizing after many years in the same property, we provide structured house removals that protect your furniture, artwork and personal possessions throughout the move.
Renters
From studio flats to shared houses, we regularly move renters around Earls Court. We work carefully to avoid damage to walls, stairwells and communal areas, helping you leave the property in good condition for your landlord or agent.
Landlords & Letting Agents
We assist landlords with end-of-tenancy clearances, partial removals and furniture replacement. Our team can work to tight turnarounds between tenants and can coordinate with cleaners and contractors where required.
Businesses & Offices
Our office removals cover everything from a single room to multi-floor relocations. We move desks, IT equipment, filing, stock and archive materials with a focus on minimising downtime and disruption for your team.
Students
We regularly help students move into and out of halls and shared accommodation around Earls Court and nearby campuses. We offer smaller, cost-effective moves with the same level of care and protection as our larger jobs.

Our Step-by-Step Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quotation
You contact us with basic details: where you are moving from and to, your preferred date and a rough idea of the size of your property. We provide an initial estimate and propose the next steps. Our pricing is transparent and clearly itemised so you know exactly what is included.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For anything beyond the smallest moves, we carry out a survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit. We look at access, parking, stairs or lifts, and the volume of belongings. This allows us to recommend the right vehicle size, team and any specialist equipment required.
3. Packing & Preparation
We offer both full packing and part packing options, as well as a transport-only service if you prefer to pack yourself. For packing jobs we use quality materials and techniques to protect fragile items, pictures, mirrors and electronics. On all moves, we protect floors and key surfaces where needed.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our professional team arrives at the agreed time, walks through the property with you and confirms the plan. Items are carefully wrapped, carried and loaded in a logical order, using blankets, straps and protective covers. We then transport everything directly to your new address in our fully insured vehicles.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload and place items into the rooms you specify. We assemble basic furniture that we have dismantled by prior arrangement and ensure you are happy with the layout before we leave. We finish with a walk-through so you can check that everything has arrived safely.
Transparent and Fair Pricing
We know that moving can be expensive, so we keep our pricing structure clear and straightforward. Quotes are based on:
- Property size and volume of belongings
- Distance between addresses
- Access issues (stairs, long walks, restricted parking)
- Services required – such as packing, dismantling, storage or out-of-hours work
You receive a written quotation detailing what is included, any optional extras and how long we expect the move to take. There are no hidden charges for standard work agreed in advance, and any potential additional costs (for example, waiting time caused by delayed key release) are explained clearly before you book.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Man-and-Van
On the surface, hiring a casual man-and-van or attempting a DIY move can appear cheaper. In practice, it often leads to extra journeys, damaged items, injuries and a great deal of stress. Our professional removals service offers:
- Trained teams who know how to handle heavy, awkward and fragile items safely
- Proper protective equipment – covers, blankets, straps and trolleys
- Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
- Accurate planning to avoid delays and unnecessary trips
- A clear point of contact and a confirmed booking, not a casual arrangement
For many customers, the peace of mind and protection offered by a reputable company more than justify the difference in price compared with informal alternatives.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We take responsibility for your belongings seriously. As a fully insured removals company, we hold:
- Goods in transit insurance – protecting your items while they are being moved
- Public liability cover – protecting you and your property during our work
Our team members are trained in safe lifting, packing techniques and property protection. Vehicles are regularly maintained, and we follow best practice for loading and securing loads. If you have specific high-value items, we will discuss coverage and handling in detail before the move.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every move as if we were handling our own belongings. That means careful route planning within the property, use of floor and banister protection where required, and proper wrapping for delicate pieces. We aim to reduce waste by reusing sturdy cartons, recycling materials where possible and planning jobs efficiently to minimise unnecessary mileage.
Where customers wish, we can collect used boxes after the move for reuse or recycling. We also encourage sensible decluttering before moving day, helping to keep vehicle loads lighter and more efficient.
Real-World Removals in Earls Court
Moving House
From period mansion blocks to modern developments, Earls Court presents a mix of property styles and access challenges. We are experienced in working with narrow staircases, limited parking and timed lift use, coordinating with building management where required.
Office and Commercial Moves
We help small and medium-sized businesses relocate within Earls Court and across London. This includes packing IT, labelling crates for departments, and carrying out moves outside normal hours to avoid disruption to your staff and customers.
Urgent and Short-Notice Moves
Sometimes moves arise at short notice due to changes in completion dates, tenancy deadlines or unforeseen circumstances. Subject to availability, we offer same-day or next-day removals solutions. We will always be honest about what is achievable within the timeframe and work with you to prioritise the essentials.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do removals in Earls Court typically cost?
The cost depends on property size, volume of belongings, distance and the services you choose. A small flat move within Earls Court might be completed in half a day with a smaller team, while a large family home or office relocation will require more staff and vehicles. After a brief discussion and survey, we provide a clear, written quotation with no obligation. This will show what is included, any optional extras such as packing, and any potential additional charges so you can budget with confidence.
Can you handle same-day or urgent removals?
Yes, we can often help with same-day or urgent moves, especially within Earls Court and nearby areas, depending on existing bookings. If your plans change suddenly or you are let down by another provider, contact us as soon as possible with your details. We will check our schedule, advise honestly on what we can do and, if needed, suggest practical ways to prioritise key items. While we cannot guarantee availability for every short-notice request, we always do our best to accommodate genuine emergencies.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We hold goods in transit insurance to protect your belongings while they are in our care, and public liability cover for work carried out at your property. This is separate from your own home or business insurance and is designed specifically for removals. During the quotation stage, we will explain the key terms, including any limits, exclusions and how high-value items are handled. You are welcome to ask for full details of our cover, and we will clarify how it applies to your particular move.
What is included in your removals service?
Our standard service includes loading, transport and unloading of your belongings between the agreed addresses, with items placed into the rooms you specify. We protect furniture with covers and blankets, and use appropriate equipment for safe handling. Optional extras include full packing or part packing, dismantling and reassembling certain furniture, provision of boxes and packing materials, and short-term storage. Everything that is included in your specific quote will be clearly listed so there is no confusion on moving day.
How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?
A professional removals service provides trained staff, suitable vehicles, specialist equipment and proper insurance. We carry out a survey, plan access, allocate the right team size and use proven techniques to protect your property and belongings. A casual man-and-van may not have adequate insurance, may rely on guesswork for timings and might struggle with complex access or larger moves. While man-and-van services can work for very small, simple jobs, most people find that a structured removals service offers far greater security and reliability.
How far in advance should I book my move?
Ideally, you should book as soon as you have a firm moving date, especially if you are moving at the end of the month or during busy periods. For most house and flat moves in Earls Court, two to four weeks’ notice works well, giving time for a survey, packing arrangements and parking permissions where required. That said, we regularly accommodate moves with less notice. Even if your dates are not fully fixed, it is worth speaking to us early so we can pencil you in and advise on the best approach.
