Our office removals service is designed around the way modern businesses operate.

Every move is carried out by our trained, uniformed and professional teams, backed by comprehensive goods in transit insurance and public liability cover. We handle the heavy lifting, planning and logistics so you can stay focused on running your business.

Local Expertise in Brixton and Surrounding Areas

Being based in Brixton means we know the local roads, building access issues and parking restrictions inside out. We regularly carry out office moves in:

• Brixton town centre offices and co-working spaces
• Business units and studios off Coldharbour Lane and Brixton Road
• Converted industrial spaces and creative hubs across SW2 and SW9
• Nearby areas including Clapham, Stockwell, Streatham and Herne Hill

This local knowledge allows us to plan realistic timings, arrange permits where required and select the right vehicles for narrow streets and busy main roads.

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

Everything starts with a simple enquiry. You can call or email us with your basic details: current address, destination, approximate size of your office and ideal move date. We then provide an initial estimate and discuss your priorities, such as weekend working, out-of-hours moves or staged relocations.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For office removals, we strongly recommend a detailed survey. This can be carried out via video call or an onsite visit. We assess access, lifts, staircases, parking and any special requirements, as well as the volume of furniture and IT to be moved. The survey allows us to provide a clear, written quotation with no hidden extras.

3. Packing & Preparation

We offer flexible packing options:

• Full packing service – Our team packs files, desk contents and non-essential equipment using quality materials and labelling systems.
• Part-packing – We pack breakables, IT and sensitive items while your team packs personal belongings.
• Self-packing – We supply crates or boxes, and you pack in advance; we advise on best practice.

We can also dismantle and reassemble standard office furniture where required.

4. Loading & Transport

On move day, our professional crew arrives at the agreed time, protecting floors and walls before loading begins. All items are wrapped or covered as needed and secured in our vehicles to prevent movement in transit. We use appropriate vehicles for Brixton’s streets, planning routes to avoid unnecessary delays.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new premises, we unload in a structured order, placing items into pre-agreed areas and rooms. Desks and furniture are reassembled where arranged, and we position IT equipment ready for your IT team or our partner specialists to reconnect. Once everything is in place, we complete a final walkthrough with you to check you are satisfied.

Transparent Pricing for Office Removals

Our pricing is straightforward and clearly explained before you book. Office removals are usually costed based on:

• Volume of items and number of workstations
• Distance between properties
• Access complexity (stairs, lifts, long carries)
• Required staff numbers and vehicles
• Level of packing and dismantling needed
• Out-of-hours or weekend working, if requested

We provide a written quotation outlining what is included, any optional extras and how long the move is expected to take. There are no unexpected charges on the day, as long as the job matches the agreed survey information.

Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY

Trying to move an office yourself or relying on a casual man-and-van can seem cheaper, but it carries real risks: damage to expensive IT, injury to staff, extended downtime and incomplete or disorganised moves. Our fully insured, trained teams are used to handling heavy furniture, sensitive equipment and complex building rules.

We bring the right vehicles, protective materials and experience to carry out the move safely and efficiently. This typically reduces the overall cost to your business when you factor in lost working time, potential breakages and the disruption of an inexperienced move.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Brixton Movers operates to clear professional standards to protect your business and staff:

• Goods in transit insurance – Covers your belongings while they are being transported, subject to policy terms and declared values.
• Public liability cover – Protects against accidental damage to third-party property or injury in the course of the move.
• Trained moving teams – Our staff receive ongoing training in manual handling, safe lifting, packing and customer service.

We are happy to provide confirmation of insurance cover and risk assessments where required by building management or corporate policies.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat your office as if it were our own. Floors, doors and lifts can be protected, and key items are wrapped, padded or crated for extra safety. IT equipment is handled with particular care to avoid knocks, vibration and cable damage.

We also aim to operate as sustainably as practical. Reusable moving crates are offered as an alternative to single-use boxes, we re-use protective materials where appropriate, and we plan routes and loads efficiently to reduce unnecessary journeys. Where you are disposing of unwanted furniture, we can often arrange responsible recycling or donation.

Real-World Office Removal Use Cases

Moving to Larger Premises

Growing businesses in Brixton often outgrow their first offices. We regularly handle moves where teams double in size and need more desks, meeting rooms and storage. We can plan phased moves so different departments relocate on different days, reducing disruption.

Internal Office Reconfigurations

Not every job involves lorries and long distances. We also carry out internal churn moves, such as changing floor layouts, moving teams between levels or reconfiguring meeting spaces. This is particularly helpful during refurbishments or hybrid-working reshuffles.

Urgent and Short-Notice Business Moves

Occasionally businesses need to move quickly due to lease changes, building issues or commercial opportunities. Subject to availability, we can support urgent moves and short-notice relocations, prioritising essential operational items first so you can continue trading with minimal interruption.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do office removals in Brixton cost?

The cost of an office removal in Brixton varies depending on the size of your office, the volume of furniture and IT equipment, how far you are moving and the level of packing required. Access issues, such as stairs, limited parking or long carries, can also affect the price. After a survey, we provide a clear, fixed quotation that explains exactly what is included. For smaller offices and short local moves, costs are often lower than expected compared with the disruption of trying to move yourselves.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?

We can often help with same-day or urgent moves, especially for smaller offices or partial relocations, but availability depends on our schedule and the scale of the job. If you are facing an urgent situation, contact us as soon as possible with key details so we can assess what is realistic. In some cases, we may suggest a staged move, prioritising essential equipment and key staff first, then returning for non-essential items once you are operational in your new space.

What insurance cover do you provide during an office move?

Your items are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved between locations, subject to policy terms and declared values. We also carry public liability cover in case of accidental damage to third-party property or injury during the move. These insurances sit alongside the care taken by our trained teams. We can provide proof of cover and, if required, details for your own insurers or building management before the move date so everything is cleared in advance.

What exactly is included in your office removals service?

Our standard service includes loading, transport and unloading of your agreed items between the current and new premises. We place furniture and equipment into the correct rooms or zones as directed on the day. Optional extras include packing, supply of crates or boxes, dismantling and reassembly of furniture and, where agreed, assistance with basic IT positioning. The exact scope will be set out in your written quotation, so you know precisely what we will and will not be doing on move day.

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

A professional removals company provides structured planning, trained staff, proper vehicles, protective materials and full insurance cover. This is particularly important for offices, where you are moving valuable IT equipment, confidential files and large volumes of furniture. A casual man-and-van may be fine for a few personal items, but is unlikely to have the resources or cover needed for a business relocation. Using professionals usually means a faster, safer move with less disruption and a much lower risk of costly damage or delays.

How far in advance should I book an office removal?

For most office moves, we recommend contacting us 4–6 weeks before your intended move date, especially if you are tied to a particular weekend or end-of-month slot. This allows enough time for surveys, building approvals, IT planning and staff communication. However, we regularly accommodate moves on shorter notice where our schedule allows. Even if your dates are not yet fixed, it is wise to get in touch early so we can provisionally plan and advise you on the steps needed to make your move run smoothly.
