Our Step-by-Step Removal Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with your move details: addresses, dates, property size and any special requirements. We ask a few focused questions so we can recommend the right service. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining what is included.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For larger moves or more complex properties in Putney, we arrange a virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to assess access, parking, stairs, lifts and volume of goods. An accurate survey means the correct team size, vehicle and time are allocated, avoiding delays on the day.

3. Packing & Preparation

You can choose between full packing services, part packing (for fragile items only) or packing your own belongings. If we pack, our trained team uses quality boxes, bubble wrap and wrapping paper to protect items. We can supply materials in advance if you prefer to pack yourself.

4. Loading & Transport

On moving day, we arrive on time, introduce the team and walk through the plan with you. Furniture is wrapped and secured, boxes are stacked safely, and everything is carefully loaded. We use protective blankets and straps in the vehicle and drive steadily to your new address.

5. Unloading & Placement

At the destination, we unload items and place them in the rooms you direct. We can reassemble agreed furniture and position larger pieces where you want them. Before leaving, we check that nothing has been missed and that you’re happy with the placement.

Transparent Pricing for Putney Removals

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

• Property size and volume of items
• Distance between addresses
• Access issues (stairs, parking, long carries)
• Services required (packing, dismantling, storage runs)
• Day and time (standard weekday, evening, weekend)

We provide fixed-price quotations wherever possible so you know the cost upfront. Any potential extras, such as extended waiting times due to key release delays, are explained clearly in advance. There are no hidden charges or surprise additions on the day.

Why Use Professional Removal Services Instead of DIY

Moving yourself or using a casual man-and-van might seem cheaper, but it often comes with hidden costs and risks. Our professional team arrives with the correct equipment, the right-sized vehicle and the experience to move heavy and fragile items safely, reducing the chance of damage to your belongings or the property.

We are fully accountable for the move, backed by insurance and a clear contract. You avoid organising friends, hiring a van, navigating Putney traffic in an unfamiliar vehicle and potentially injuring yourself lifting incorrectly. A professional removal service saves time, stress and personal risk.

Insurance & Professional Standards

Man With a Van Putney operates to recognised industry standards. We hold appropriate:

• Goods in transit insurance to protect your belongings while they are being moved
• Public liability cover for peace of mind at both properties

Our removals teams are trained in safe lifting, furniture protection and secure loading. We follow documented procedures for handling fragile items and always work with care and courtesy inside your home or business. Details of our cover are available on request, and we are happy to explain how it applies to your move.

Care, Protection & Sustainability

We treat your belongings as if they were our own. Furniture is protected using blankets, wrap and careful positioning in the vehicle. Floors, bannisters and doorways are watched closely to minimise scuffs or marks. For fragile items, we use additional padding and sensible loading order.

We are also working to reduce our environmental impact. Where possible, we reuse sturdy boxes, minimise unnecessary journeys and plan efficient routes in and around Putney. We encourage customers to recycle unwanted items and can recommend local charities and recycling centres for suitable goods.

We support offices, shops and small businesses relocating within Putney or to nearby business districts. Moves are scheduled to reduce downtime, with out-of-hours options available by arrangement so you can trade as normal as soon as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do removal services in Putney cost?

The cost of a removal in Putney depends on the size of your property, the volume of goods, the distance between addresses and the level of service you need. A small flat move can often be completed in half a day, while a larger family home may require a full day or more with a larger team. We provide a tailored quote after discussing your move, and for bigger jobs we may carry out a survey. All pricing is explained upfront so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Can you provide same-day or urgent removals?

We can often help with same-day or short-notice removals in Putney, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. Smaller flat moves and urgent item relocations are usually easier to fit in at short notice than full house or office moves. If you need an urgent service, contact us as early as possible with full details so we can check vehicle and crew availability. We will always be honest about what is realistic and whether we can complete your move safely in the time available.

Are my belongings insured during the move?

Yes. We carry goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are being transported in our vehicles, as well as public liability cover for work at your properties. Insurance is there to provide reassurance, but our first priority is always prevention through careful handling, protective materials and secure loading. We are happy to explain the scope of our cover, any limits that apply and how best to list any particularly valuable items so that everything is properly noted before moving day.

What is included in your removal service?

Our standard service includes loading, transport and unloading of your belongings between the agreed addresses, using suitable vehicles, blankets and securing equipment. We place items into the rooms you choose and handle normal household furniture and boxes. Additional options include packing services, supply of packing materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and disposal runs for agreed items. When we provide your quote, we clearly list what is included so there is no confusion on the day and you can add or remove options as required.

How is a professional removal different from a basic man-and-van?

A casual man-and-van typically offers simple transport with limited labour, planning or protection. A professional removal service, like ours, provides a structured process from survey and planning through to careful loading and insured transport. We use trained teams, appropriate equipment, written confirmations and clear pricing. If something unexpected happens on moving day, we have the experience and capacity to adapt. This approach reduces the risk of damage, delays and additional costs, giving you a far smoother and more predictable move.

How far in advance should I book my Putney removal?

For most house and office moves in Putney, booking two to four weeks in advance is ideal, especially for Fridays and month-end dates which are often busiest. That said, we understand that exchange and completion dates can move, so we try to be flexible where possible. If you know your likely time frame, it is worth speaking to us early so we can pencil you in and discuss options. For smaller moves, we can sometimes accommodate bookings with only a few days’ notice, subject to availability.
