Moving a piano is very different from moving normal furniture. At Man and Van Putney, we provide a dedicated piano removals service in Putney and surrounding areas, using the correct equipment, trained staff and carefully planned methods to protect both the instrument and your property.
Our piano moving service is designed for safe, controlled handling of all types of pianos, including:
We use purpose-built piano skates, padded covers, ramps and tie-downs to move pianos through tight hallways, stairs and doorways. Every move is risk-assessed, planned and carried out by a trained, professional and fully insured team.
Working across Putney every day means we understand the realities of moving pianos in the area: narrow Victorian terraces, mansion blocks with limited lift access, controlled parking zones and busy high streets. We plan access, parking and timings in advance to minimise disruption and keep your move running smoothly.
We regularly move pianos for homes, schools, rehearsal spaces and venues in and around Putney, so we know how to protect both the instrument and the buildings we work in.
Whether you are moving house or simply repositioning a piano between rooms or floors, we provide careful internal and external moves to protect floors, stairs and walls, as well as the piano itself.
If you are renting in Putney, you’ll want to avoid any damage that could affect your deposit. Our team use floor protection, door frame covers and safe handling techniques to keep the property in its original condition.
We assist landlords and agents who need a piano removed from or delivered to a rental property. We work to agreed time slots, coordinate keys and ensure all common areas are left clean and undamaged.
We support schools, music studios, churches, hotels and performance venues with planned and one-off piano relocations, including internal moves for refurbishments or layout changes.
Students moving into or out of shared accommodation, and musicians relocating instruments between flats, rehearsal rooms and venues, rely on us for affordable, safe and punctual piano transport.
If you are unsure whether your item is covered, we will clarify this during your initial enquiry and survey.
You contact us with details of the piano, pickup and delivery addresses, property type, floor level and any access constraints. Based on this information, we provide a clear, no-obligation estimate and outline any likely challenges so there are no surprises on the day.
For most piano moves we carry out a short virtual survey using photos or video to assess access, staircases, corners and parking. For more complex moves (for example, large grands or awkward stairways), we can attend in person. This survey allows us to choose the right team size, equipment and vehicle and to confirm a fixed price.
On moving day, we protect floors and access routes where required. The piano is wrapped in heavy-duty blankets and padded covers. For grand pianos, we may remove the legs and pedals, securing them separately. All components are labelled and protected. We then plan the exact route out of the property, including any tight turns or landings.
The piano is carefully lifted or rolled onto a piano skate and moved to the vehicle using ramps if needed. Inside the van, it is positioned to minimise movement and strapped securely to anchor points. Our goods in transit insurance covers the instrument while it is in our care, and only experienced drivers are assigned to piano journeys.
At the destination, we repeat the protection and handling process in reverse, taking equal care of your new property. We place the piano in your chosen room and position, make any required reassembly for grands, and remove all our protective materials. We recommend leaving the piano for a period to acclimatise before tuning.
Piano removal costs in Putney depend mainly on the type of piano, access difficulty and distance travelled. Upright pianos on ground to ground floor with straightforward access are typically the most economical. Prices increase for heavier instruments, multiple flights of stairs, very tight access or long carries.
We provide clear, written quotations in advance, breaking down any additional costs for complex access or extra staff. There are no hidden fees for fuel or normal insurance cover. If your move details change, we re-confirm the price before work starts so you remain fully in control of your budget.
Pianos are extremely heavy yet delicate instruments. Attempting a move with friends or a casual man-and-van service can result in damage to the piano, injuries, or significant harm to floors, walls and staircases. Internal mechanisms are sensitive to shocks and twisting, and many insurance policies will not cover DIY mishaps.
By choosing a professional piano removal service, you benefit from trained handling techniques, purpose-made equipment, goods in transit insurance, and properly planned access. This reduces risk, stress and potential long-term repair costs, and allows you to focus on the rest of your move.
Man and Van Putney operates to professional removals industry standards to protect your piano and your property at every stage.
We are happy to provide evidence of our cover and answer any questions about how your instrument is protected.
We treat every piano as a valuable instrument, not just a heavy object. Corners, lids and key covers are padded, access routes are protected, and we work slowly and steadily rather than rushing. For older or fragile pianos, we adapt our methods to minimise vibration and strain.
Where possible, we reuse durable packing blankets and protective materials to cut waste, and we plan routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage. Our aim is to combine high standards of care with a responsible approach to resources and the local environment.
When you are moving home, your piano is often the heaviest and most awkward item to deal with. We can move it as part of a full house removal, or as a separate specialist job timed around your main move so that it is handled with full attention and appropriate equipment.
For businesses, schools and studios, we can schedule piano moves outside teaching hours or business hours to minimise disruption. We work closely with site managers and caretakers to plan access, protect floors and ensure compliance with building rules.
Sometimes pianos need to be moved at short notice – following a property sale completing earlier than expected, a last-minute venue change, or an urgent requirement to clear a room. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day piano removals in Putney and nearby areas.
The cost of a piano removal depends on the piano type, floor levels, access and travel distance. Straightforward upright moves between ground floors in Putney are at the lower end of our pricing, while grands, multiple flights of stairs or tight access cost more due to extra staff and equipment. After a short discussion and survey, we provide a fixed, written quote so you know the exact cost before you commit. There are no hidden charges for standard insurance or normal travel within our service area.
Same-day or very short-notice piano removals are sometimes possible, depending on our schedule and the complexity of the move. Simple ground-floor uprights are easier to accommodate at short notice than large grands or tricky stairwork, which require more planning and staff. If you need an urgent move, contact us as early as you can with details and photos; we will confirm quickly whether we can help, give you a realistic arrival window, and set out any time-related surcharges before you decide.
Yes. Your piano is covered by our goods in transit insurance while it is in our care, from the moment we start handling it until we place it in its new position. We also carry public liability cover for accidental damage to the buildings we work in. Our team take every precaution to avoid problems, but insurance provides an extra level of reassurance. If your piano is particularly high value, let us know so we can confirm that the declared value sits comfortably within our policy limits and adjust arrangements if necessary.
Our piano removals service includes assessing access, planning the move, protecting floors where required, wrapping and padding the piano, using specialist moving equipment, safe loading, secure transport and careful placement in your chosen room. For grands, basic disassembly and reassembly of legs and pedals is included. We also include standard insurance cover as part of the service. Optional extras, such as moving other household items at the same time or disposing of an unwanted piano, can be added and will be clearly listed on your quote.
A casual man-and-van service may not have the training, insurance or equipment required for safe piano handling. Pianos are heavy, unbalanced and mechanically delicate, so using incorrect lifting or transport methods can cause internal or cosmetic damage, and even injury. A specialist piano removal uses experienced staff, piano skates, proper padding and secure strapping, plus appropriate insurance cover. We also carry out access surveys and risk assessments in advance. This more professional approach significantly reduces risk and gives you recourse if something unexpected does occur.
For planned moves, we recommend booking one to two weeks in advance, especially if you need a specific date or time slot, or if your move involves a grand piano or complex access. This allows time for surveys, parking arrangements and scheduling the right team. However, we understand that not all moves are predictable, so we keep some flexibility for shorter-notice jobs. The earlier you contact us, the more options we can offer, and the easier it is to coordinate with other aspects of your house or business move.
At Man and Van Putney, our man with van Putney service is designed for fast, safe and efficient moves across Putney and the surrounding areas. Whether you are moving a single item or a full flat, you benefit from a professional, fully insured removals team with years of hands-on experience in London moves.
Our man with van service is a flexible removals option for smaller to medium moves, collections and deliveries. You get an appropriately sized van, an experienced driver-mover and, where required, additional porters to handle the heavier lifting.
Every job is planned so that your belongings are protected, loaded securely and transported efficiently, with clear communication from start to finish.
Working daily in Putney means we know the area well: parking restrictions on residential streets, busy periods on Putney High Street, bridge traffic, and the quickest routes across South West London. This local knowledge allows us to plan realistic timings, avoid unnecessary delays and make sure we bring the right equipment for your building type – whether that is a mansion block off Putney Hill or a riverside flat.
We also understand local building rules and are used to working with concierges, managing agents and landlords to arrange access, lift use and parking suspensions where required.
If you are moving within Putney or to another part of London and do not need a full-size lorry, our man with van option is ideal for smaller houses and flats. We handle furniture, white goods, boxes and fragile items with care.
Tenants moving between rented properties often work to tight deadlines and inventories. We can move you quickly while helping to protect walls, doors and stairwells so you leave the property as you found it.
Landlords and letting agents use our service for clearing or part-clearing properties, swapping furniture between lets, and delivering new items. We can remove unwanted items responsibly and bring in newly purchased furniture on the same visit where possible.
For small offices and local businesses, our man with van service is a cost-effective way to move stock, files, equipment and furniture. We work outside normal trading hours where needed to minimise disruption.
Students moving to or from Putney benefit from a smaller, efficient service that suits limited belongings and tighter budgets. We regularly move suitcases, boxes, desks, bikes and small furniture between halls, flats and family homes.
If you are unsure about a particular item, just ask at the quotation stage. We can often suggest a safe approach or recommend a specialist where needed.
You contact us with your move details – addresses, dates, approximate inventory and access information. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote. For straightforward man with van jobs, we can usually quote by phone or email based on your list and any photos you send.
For larger or more complex moves, we carry out a short virtual or onsite survey. This helps us confirm the right size van, how many movers you need and how long the job is likely to take. It also allows us to identify any access issues such as tight staircases or parking restrictions.
You can choose to pack your own belongings or use our professional packing service. If you are packing yourself, we provide guidance on suitable boxes, labelling and protecting fragile items. On moving day, we protect furniture with covers and blankets, and can dismantle and reassemble basic items where required.
Our trained team load the van carefully, using straps, blankets and trolley equipment to protect your belongings and the building. We then transport everything directly to your new address, taking the most efficient route and keeping you updated on our progress.
On arrival, we unload into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it and stacking boxes neatly. If we have dismantled items, we will reassemble them as agreed. We aim to leave you with a functional space on day one, not just a pile of boxes at the door.
Our man with van pricing is straightforward and explained in advance. Depending on the job, we may offer:
Your quote will set out what is included – the number of movers, size of van, estimated duration and any additional services such as packing or furniture assembly. Parking, congestion and toll charges are discussed upfront so there are no unwanted surprises. You only pay for the service you genuinely need.
Hiring a van and moving yourself can seem cheaper, but it often leads to extra stress, physical strain and the risk of damage to your belongings or the property. A casual operator may not be fully insured or trained, leaving you exposed if something goes wrong.
With Man and Van Putney you get:
The result is a smoother move, fewer risks and more time to focus on everything else that comes with moving.
We take responsibility for your belongings seriously. Our service includes:
We operate to professional standards for punctuality, communication and care, and we treat each move as if it were our own possessions being transported.
We focus on protecting both your belongings and the environment. Furniture is wrapped and secured to minimise movement in transit, and we use floor and door protectors where needed to reduce scuffs and scrapes.
Where possible, we reuse strong crates, blankets and durable packing materials, and we separate recycling when clearing properties. Our routes are planned to minimise unnecessary mileage, helping to reduce emissions as part of a more sustainable way of operating.
Many Putney residents use our service for smaller home moves where a full removals truck would be excessive. We can often complete local moves in a single trip, even for well-furnished one-bedroom flats.
Small businesses and start-ups use our man with van Putney service to relocate between serviced offices, co-working spaces and shops. We work to your schedule to keep downtime to a minimum.
Sometimes plans change quickly. Where availability allows, we offer same-day or next-day man with van support for emergency moves, last-minute clearances or unexpected deliveries.
Costs depend on three main factors: how much you are moving, how many movers you need and how long the job will take. For smaller moves we often work on an hourly rate with a minimum booking, while larger or more defined moves can be priced as a fixed quote. Additional factors such as packing, dismantling furniture, difficult access or long carries can affect the price. Once we have your details, we will give you a clear written estimate so you know exactly what to expect before you book.
Yes, where our schedule allows, we can offer same-day or next-day man with van support in Putney and nearby areas. Urgent jobs are usually best handled by phone so we can confirm availability quickly and discuss timings, access and parking. While we cannot guarantee last-minute slots every day, we will always be honest about what we can realistically do and will never overpromise. If we are fully booked, we may be able to suggest alternative times or a scaled-down service that still helps you meet your deadline.
Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicle, and we also hold public liability cover for added peace of mind. These policies are designed to protect against the unexpected, such as an accident on the road. There are standard exclusions, for example for certain high-value items or inadequately packed goods, which we will explain before you book. If you have particularly valuable or delicate items, please tell us in advance so we can advise on the safest way to move them.
Our standard service includes a suitable van, a professional driver-mover and, where agreed, additional porters. We load and unload your belongings, protect furniture with blankets and straps, and transport everything directly from your old address to your new one. We place items into the rooms you choose and can dismantle and reassemble basic furniture if agreed in advance. Optional extras include packing services, packing materials and responsible disposal of unwanted items. All inclusions are set out clearly in your quote so you know exactly what you are getting.
A casual man-and-van may simply provide a driver and a vehicle, often without formal training, insurance or clear terms. Our service is a professional removals offering: fully insured, with trained staff, proper protective equipment and a structured process from quote to completion. We plan access, timings and parking in advance, provide written confirmations, and are accountable for the standard of work. In practice, this means fewer breakages, less stress on the day and a much clearer understanding of what will happen and when.
To secure your preferred date and time, especially at weekends and month-end, we recommend booking one to two weeks in advance. However, we understand that moves are not always planned that far ahead, so we will always try to accommodate shorter notice where we can. Even if your date is not yet confirmed, getting in touch early allows us to pencil you in and discuss options. Once your booking is confirmed, we stay in contact so you can update us on any changes to inventory, access or timing.
At Man and Van Putney, our man and a van service is designed for moves that are too big to carry yourself but don’t require a full-scale removal lorry. You still get a professional, fully insured removals team, just with the flexibility and speed of a smaller vehicle. We work across Putney and the surrounding areas, helping people move efficiently, safely and without stress.
Whether you’re moving a few large items, a studio flat, or need a rapid response for an urgent job, we provide a tidy, punctual and well-planned service every time.
Our service is ideal for a wide range of customers in and around Putney:
If your move doesn’t quite justify a big lorry and full crew, our man and a van service fills the gap perfectly.
Our trained teams handle a wide range of household and business items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, our Putney man and a van service does not usually carry:
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, just mention it during your enquiry and we will advise on the best approach.
We work in Putney every day. That local knowledge matters. We understand the parking restrictions on side streets off Upper Richmond Road, the access challenges in mansion blocks and riverside developments, and the timing needed to avoid the worst of traffic near Putney Bridge.
Because we know the area well, we can plan suitable routes, arrange permits where needed, and choose the right size of van for your street. This reduces delays, keeps neighbours on-side and makes the whole move smoother for you.
You contact us with the details of your move – addresses, rough inventory, dates and any access issues. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, explaining how long we expect the job to take and what is included. We are always happy to offer guidance on how to keep time – and therefore cost – to a minimum.
For most man and a van jobs in Putney, a quick virtual survey (photos, video call or a detailed list) is sufficient. For more complex or awkward-access moves, we can arrange an onsite visit. This lets us confirm van size, number of movers and any special equipment needed, so there are no surprises on the day.
You can pack your own belongings, or we can provide a professional packing service at an additional cost. Even for self-packed moves, we can supply strong boxes, tape and packing paper. On moving day, our team will protect key items with blankets and covers, and we can dismantle basic furniture where required for safe transport.
Our trained movers load the van systematically to maximise space and protect your belongings. Larger items are securely strapped in, and fragile pieces are cushioned. We then drive directly to your destination, using our knowledge of Putney and surrounding routes to avoid unnecessary delays where possible.
On arrival, we unload into the rooms you indicate, not just into the hallway. If we dismantled basic items, we can reassemble them where practical. Before leaving, we check that everything on our agreed inventory has been delivered and that you are happy with the placement.
We believe man and a van pricing should be straightforward. Our quotes are usually based on:
For many moves we offer an hourly rate with a sensible minimum booking, so you only pay for the time you use. For clearly defined jobs, we can provide a fixed price. All charges are explained in advance, with no hidden extras for stairs or standard London conditions, unless specifically discussed.
It can be tempting to hire a cheap, unvetted van or ask friends to help, but there are real risks. With Man and Van Putney you get:
DIY moves often take much longer, carry a higher risk of damage or injury, and can end up costing more once you factor in van hire, fuel, parking and lost time.
Your belongings are important, and we treat them that way. Our service includes:
We work to clear procedures for lifting, loading and securing loads, and we keep our vehicles well-maintained and clean. If you have specific insurance requirements, let us know and we will clarify the cover in writing.
We aim to move your belongings carefully while limiting our environmental impact. We use reusable moving blankets, sturdy re-useable crates where requested, and avoid unnecessary single-use plastics. Routes are planned efficiently to minimise mileage and emissions.
Inside your property, we protect key areas such as bannisters and doorways where required, and we handle floors with care to reduce the chance of scuffs or marks. Our goal is simple: your things arrive in the same condition they left, and your property is respected throughout.
Pricing depends mainly on how many movers you need, how long the job takes and the distance between addresses. For many local moves we charge an hourly rate with a minimum booking, so small jobs remain cost-effective. Larger or more complex moves can be priced as a fixed quote once we understand the details. There are no hidden extras for stairs or standard London access unless agreed in advance. Contact us with a brief description of your move and we’ll provide a clear, written estimate.
We can often help with same-day or short-notice bookings, especially on weekdays outside of peak times. Availability depends on our existing schedule, van capacity and how quickly we can arrange access and parking. If you need an urgent move, call us as early as possible with your locations and a brief inventory. We’ll let you know what we can offer, provide a rapid quote, and advise on how to prepare so that the move runs smoothly despite the short notice.
Yes. Our man and a van service includes goods in transit insurance to protect your items while they are in our care, plus public liability cover for work at your property. This is designed for normal household and office contents. Very high-value or unusual items may need to be discussed in advance so we can confirm cover or suggest alternatives. We also minimise risk by using trained staff, proper lifting techniques and protective equipment to keep your belongings safe throughout the move.
Our standard service includes a suitable van, a professional driver, at least one additional mover where required, loading, safe transport and unloading into the rooms you specify. We provide blankets, straps and basic tools for simple dismantling. Optional extras include packing services, packing materials and short or long-term storage. Parking fees or permits, if needed, are normally chargeable at cost. Before you book, we’ll confirm exactly what’s included so you know precisely what to expect on moving day.
Many casual operators simply provide a driver and a vehicle, with no formal training or insurance. We operate as a professional removals company offering a compact service. That means trained teams, proper lifting equipment, goods in transit insurance and public liability cover as standard. We also carry out basic planning for each job, consider access and parking, and provide written confirmations and invoices. In practical terms, your move is safer, more organised and more predictable than using an unregulated, ad-hoc man-with-a-van.
For weekend or month-end moves, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, as these periods are typically busy. For mid-week or off-peak moves, a few days’ notice is often enough. That said, we understand that circumstances can change quickly, so we always try to accommodate last-minute requests where our schedule allows. The earlier you contact us, the more choice of time slots you’ll have, and the better we can plan access and parking for a smooth, efficient move.
Moving out of a flat in Putney demands careful planning, considerate handling of neighbours, and a team that understands tight stairwells and parking restrictions. At Man and Van Putney, we provide a dedicated flat removals service designed specifically for Putney apartments, maisonettes and studio moves.
With years of hands-on experience in SW15 and the surrounding areas, we combine local knowledge, professional standards and fully insured transport to make your move straightforward and stress-free.
Flat moves are rarely as simple as loading a van and driving away. There are lifts to book, managing noise in communal areas, parking suspensions and managing large furniture through tight access. Our team deals with these challenges in Putney every day.
We plan each move around your building, your landlord or managing agent’s requirements, and your timings. Whether you’re on the ground floor or the top of a Victorian conversion, we ensure your belongings – and the building – are protected from start to finish.
If you own a flat in Putney and are moving locally or across London, we handle complete flat clearances, from furniture and appliances to boxes and personal effects. We can also coordinate with estate agents and buyers where needed.
End of tenancy moves often come with strict deadlines and check-out inspections. We work around your inventory appointment times, protect walls and floors, and help ensure you leave the flat in good condition for your deposit to be returned.
For landlords in Putney, we offer flat clearances after tenants move out, including removal of unwanted furniture and items left behind. We can prepare the flat ready for cleaning and re-letting, working to short turnaround times.
Many businesses operate from upper-floor offices or live–work flats. We relocate desks, IT equipment, stock and archives with proper protection and labelling, minimising downtime and disruption to your team and neighbours.
Students moving between halls, shared flats or back home benefit from a cost-effective, smaller-scale service. We can combine multiple student moves from the same building or area to keep costs sensible.
Our Putney flat removals service usually includes:
For safety and legal reasons, there are some exclusions:
If you are unsure about a particular item, just ask – we will advise or suggest a suitable alternative service.
You contact us with the details of your flat move in Putney – dates, addresses, access information and a rough list of items. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote, explaining what is included and any options such as packing or dismantling.
For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a survey. This can be done via video call or in person. We assess access, parking, stairs or lift use, and the volume of items. This ensures we send the right size vehicle, the right number of trained movers, and the correct protection materials.
You can choose between full packing, part packing (e.g. just fragile items) or self-packing. If we pack for you, we bring strong cartons, wrapping materials and wardrobe boxes. Furniture that needs dismantling is carefully taken apart and all fixings are kept together to be reassembled at your new property.
On moving day, we protect floors where needed and plan our route through the building to minimise disturbance. Items are wrapped or covered, loaded methodically and secured in our vehicles. Our Goods in Transit insured vehicles then transport your belongings safely to your new address, whether within Putney or further afield.
At the destination, we unload room by room, placing items as directed by you. Furniture is reassembled, and large items are positioned so you can start living in your new flat straight away. We remove used packing materials we have supplied, leaving your new home as clear as possible.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden extras. Our flat removals in Putney are usually priced either:
Your quote will explain what is included – vehicle, number of movers, mileage allowance, and any packing or dismantling services. Additional charges (for example, congestion charge or parking fees) are clearly identified where they apply. We are always happy to talk through ways to keep costs within your budget, such as doing your own packing or moving non-fragile items yourself.
Hiring a casual van or doing it yourself can seem cheaper, but often leads to damage, delays and a great deal of stress. Our professional flat removals team in Putney offers:
When you factor in your time, the risk of breakages and the stress of coordinating everything, a professional flat removal is usually the more sensible choice.
Your belongings and your building are protected when you move with Man and Van Putney:
We handle your items as if they were our own, and we always work with care and respect for your neighbours and building management rules.
We take pride in moving your belongings safely and thoughtfully. Mattresses, sofas and delicate items are covered; furniture is wrapped or blanket-protected; and we take extra care with paintwork and banisters in shared stairwells.
Where possible, we use reusable protective materials and durable crates. Cardboard boxes are sourced responsibly, and we encourage re-use or recycling after your move. Efficient route planning and loading also help reduce unnecessary journeys and emissions, keeping the environmental impact of your move as low as reasonably possible.
Whether you are upsizing from a studio near Putney Bridge Road or moving from a riverside apartment to a family home, we coordinate the timing so you are not left stranded between keys. We can also hold items on the van briefly if there is a gap between properties.
For small businesses and freelancers operating from flats, we relocate both domestic and office contents. Computers and sensitive equipment are carefully wrapped and clearly labelled to ensure a quick and organised setup at your new address.
Life is not always predictable. If you need to move out of your Putney flat at short notice, we will do our best to offer same-day or next-day availability, subject to existing bookings. We focus on the essentials first – beds, key furniture and work equipment – to make sure you can function from day one.
Costs vary depending on the size of your flat, the volume of belongings, access (stairs, lifts, parking) and the distance you are moving. Smaller studio or one-bed flat moves may be charged by the hour, while larger two- or three-bed flats are usually quoted at a fixed price following a survey. Additional services such as packing, dismantling or storage will affect the final cost. We always provide a clear, written quotation before you book, so you know exactly what to expect.
Where our schedule allows, we can offer same-day or short-notice flat removals in and around Putney. Availability depends on existing bookings, the size of your move and how far you are travelling. For urgent moves, it helps if you are flexible on timing and prepared with packed boxes ready to go. Contact us as soon as you know you need to move, and we will let you know what options are realistically possible and how we can prioritise your essential items.
Yes. Your belongings are covered by our Goods in Transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms and any declared high-value items. We also carry public liability cover for accidental damage to property or third parties. Insurance is not a substitute for proper packing, so we still take great care in wrapping and loading. We will explain the main points of cover when you book and can answer any specific questions about valuable or unusual items.
Our standard service includes the vehicle, a trained removals team, loading, transport and unloading of your belongings between the agreed addresses. We protect furniture with covers and blankets and secure items inside the vehicle. Optional extras include full or part packing, supply of packing materials, dismantling and reassembling of furniture, and short-term storage if needed. Parking fees, congestion charge or extended waiting times may be charged separately, but these will always be discussed in advance wherever possible.
A basic man-and-van service typically offers transport and labour only, with little or no protection materials, planning or insurance. Our professional flat removals service in Putney includes trained staff, appropriate equipment, insurance cover, and a structured process from survey to unloading. We assess access, plan the job properly and bring everything needed to protect your belongings and the building. For a full flat move, especially from upper floors, a professional service is generally safer, more efficient and more reliable than a casual option.
Ideally, book as soon as you have a confirmed moving date – typically two to four weeks in advance, especially for Fridays and month-end, which are busier. This gives us time to carry out a survey, arrange parking where needed and plan your move properly. That said, we understand that dates sometimes change or arise at short notice. If your move is urgent, contact us anyway – we will always try to accommodate you or suggest the nearest available slot.
At Man and Van Putney, we provide straightforward, affordable student removals across Putney and the surrounding areas. Whether you are moving into halls, changing student houses, heading home for the holidays or relocating after graduation, we make the whole process easier, faster and less stressful.
Student moves are different from full family house moves. There are usually fewer large items, tighter budgets, awkward building access, and fixed key collection times. As a local Putney removals company, we understand university term dates, busy moving weekends, and the pressures of juggling exams or part-time work with a move.
We tailor our student removals to be flexible and efficient, offering single-room and part-load moves as well as full flat or house relocations. Our team turns up on time, works quickly and treats your belongings with care.
We regularly help students moving between halls, house shares and private rented flats. From a few boxes, suitcases and a bike, through to a full room with furniture, we can scale the service to your needs and budget.
If you are a parent or homeowner helping a student move between Putney and elsewhere in the UK, we can collect from your home, the campus, or both. Our professional team takes the strain out of long journeys, parking restrictions and heavy lifting.
Many former students stay in Putney as young professionals. Our service is ideal if you are upgrading from student digs to a longer-term rental, with flexible evening and weekend slots to fit around work.
We work with landlords and agents who need belongings cleared between tenancies, or help moving furniture in or out of student lets. We offer reliable, fully insured removals with clear communication and punctual attendance.
We also assist local businesses, colleges and university departments with small office moves, archive moves and equipment transfers linked to student accommodation or teaching spaces.
Every student removal in Putney is slightly different, but typically includes:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from our student removals service:
If you are unsure about a particular item, just ask and we will advise on the safest way to handle it.
Contact us by phone, email or online form with your move details: addresses, dates, access information, and a rough list of items. We will provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the volume, distance and any special requirements.
For most student removals we can assess your needs from photos, videos or a brief call. For larger moves or shared houses, we can arrange an onsite visit in Putney. This helps us allocate the right vehicle and number of movers, avoiding surprises on the day.
You can choose to pack your own belongings, or we can supply boxes and materials. For those with limited time or who are travelling from abroad, we offer optional packing services where our trained team packs and labels everything for you. Either way, we provide advice on how to pack safely to protect fragile items.
On moving day, our trained movers arrive at the agreed time, protect walls and doors where necessary, and carefully move items from your room or flat to the van. Everything is loaded securely, with straps and blankets used to prevent movement in transit. We then transport your belongings directly to your new address or storage facility.
At the destination, we unload into the rooms you specify, not just the doorstep. We can place furniture where you want it and stack boxes in an organised way so unpacking is easier. Once you are happy, we complete a quick final check before we leave.
We know students and families need clear, predictable costs. Our pricing is based on:
You will always receive a written estimate before you book. There are no hidden extras for stairs or standard waiting times, and any potential additional charges (for example extended key delays or congestion charges) are explained in advance where possible.
It can be tempting to move yourself with a borrowed car or an unvetted casual man-with-a-van. In practice, this often leads to multiple trips, damage to belongings, last-minute cancellations or parking fines. As a professional local removals company, we bring:
This means less stress, less risk, and more time to focus on studies or settling into your new accommodation.
Man and Van Putney operates to clear standards to protect you and your belongings:
We are happy to provide proof of cover on request, which is particularly useful for landlords, agents and institutional clients.
We treat every student move with the same care as a full home removal. Fragile items are wrapped and placed securely, and we use blankets, straps and protective coverings where required. We also aim to work in a more sustainable way by:
Our goal is to minimise waste while making sure your possessions arrive safely.
We regularly assist students moving into halls at the start of term and out again in summer. With busy campus roads and limited drop-off times, having a punctual, organised removals team makes the day much less stressful for everyone involved.
When you move from one shared house in Putney to another, we can coordinate with housemates’ moves, carry furniture through narrow stairwells and handle awkward items like bikes or musical instruments.
If you are returning home elsewhere in the UK, we can load in Putney and drive directly to your family address, saving multiple train journeys with heavy bags. This is especially useful during peak term-end dates when public transport is crowded.
Sometimes moves are unplanned – sudden changes of tenancy, course changes or personal reasons. Subject to availability, we can often provide same-day or next-day student removals from Putney, with honest advice on timings and costs.
Student removals are usually more affordable than full house moves because there are fewer large items and the jobs are quicker. Costs depend on the volume of belongings, the distance travelled and how many movers are required. For a typical student room move within Putney, the price is often based on an hourly rate with a minimum charge. Longer-distance moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. We will always provide a clear estimate in advance so you know exactly what to budget.
Yes, subject to availability we can often help with same-day or very short-notice student removals in Putney. This is especially useful if you face an unexpected change of accommodation or a tenancy ending sooner than planned. The more information you can provide about access, parking and volume, the quicker we can confirm a booking. While we cannot guarantee emergency slots during peak periods, we will always try to offer a realistic solution or suggest the earliest available time.
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance that covers your belongings while they are being transported in our vehicle, subject to standard terms and conditions. We also hold public liability cover for peace of mind in the unlikely event of accidental damage to property or injury. There may be limits for particularly high-value items, so if you have expensive equipment such as professional cameras or musical instruments, let us know in advance and we can advise on appropriate cover.
Our standard student removals service includes collection from your current address, loading, secure transport and unloading into your new room or property. We handle typical student belongings such as boxes, clothes, books, electronics and small furniture. Optional extras include packing services, supply of packing materials and help with furniture disassembly or reassembly by prior arrangement. Parking, tolls or congestion charges are discussed in advance where applicable so there are no unexpected costs on moving day.
While we operate vans, we run as a professional removals company rather than an informal man-and-van. That means trained staff, proper planning, clear pricing and full insurance. We use appropriate equipment and packing methods to protect your belongings, arrive at confirmed times and communicate clearly throughout. Many basic man-and-van services do not offer the same level of reliability or cover, which can leave you exposed if something goes wrong on a crucial moving day.
For the best choice of dates and times, especially around the start and end of university terms, we recommend booking at least two to three weeks in advance. However, we understand that plans can change quickly for students, so we also accept short-notice bookings where our schedule allows. If you know your moving date but are not sure of the exact details yet, it is still worth getting in touch early so we can pencil you in and discuss options.
Man and Van Putney provides reliable, carefully planned house removals across Putney and the surrounding areas. With years of hands-on experience moving families, professionals and students, we focus on safe handling, clear communication and predictable pricing, so your move runs smoothly from first call to final box.
Our house removals service is a complete, end-to-end solution for anyone moving home in or around Putney. We handle everything from small flats and shared houses to large family homes and townhouse moves.
Every move includes a tailored plan, the right size vehicle, a trained moving team, and the equipment needed to protect your belongings and property. Whether you are moving across Putney or to another part of the UK, we ensure your items are loaded correctly, transported safely and placed exactly where you need them in your new home.
We support a wide range of clients in Putney and nearby areas:
Whether you have a studio flat, a four-bedroom family home, or a mixed home/office setup, we adapt our service around your property, your schedule and your priorities.
Our team is trained and equipped to move most household and small office items, including:
For safety and insurance reasons, some items are excluded or require advance discussion:
If you are unsure about a particular item, let us know during your enquiry. We can often accommodate special items with the right preparation and equipment.
You contact Man and Van Putney by phone or online with your moving details – addresses, dates, property size and any special requirements. We ask clear, focused questions so we can give a realistic estimate. For straightforward jobs we can often provide a quote immediately. For more complex moves, we’ll follow up with a survey.
For larger or more complex properties, we arrange a virtual or onsite survey. This lets us see access points, parking, stairs, lifts and any awkward items. The survey means we can allocate the right team size, vehicle and time, avoiding last-minute surprises on moving day and helping keep costs predictable.
You can choose between:
On the day, we protect your property with floor runners (where needed), and your furniture with blankets, covers and secure strapping. Mattresses and sofas are wrapped to keep them clean during transit.
Our trained team loads your items in a safe, structured order, securing everything to minimise movement in transit. We use trolleys, dollies and lifting straps to reduce the risk of damage to both items and property. Your belongings are transported in our dedicated removals vehicles under goods in transit insurance for added peace of mind.
At your new property, we unload and place furniture and labelled boxes into the rooms you specify. We work from your floor plan or simple room labels to keep the process organised. Before leaving, we do a final check to ensure nothing has been left on the vehicle and you are happy with the placement of key items.
We base our pricing on a clear set of factors:
For smaller moves, we may quote a competitive hourly rate, while larger moves are usually priced as a fixed job. We explain what is included, how long we expect the move to take and any potential extras, such as congestion charges or parking fees. There are no hidden add-ons: any likely additional costs are discussed upfront.
Hiring a professional removals company like Man and Van Putney brings several important advantages over doing it yourself or using an unstructured casual man-and-van service:
A professional move usually saves time, reduces stress and lowers the chance of costly damage, especially in tight stairwells and busy Putney streets.
We operate to clear, professional standards to protect you and your belongings throughout the move.
We maintain our vehicles regularly, use appropriate protective gear and follow sensible working practices, from secure parking to safe lifting.
We understand how important your belongings are. Our approach is built around care and responsibility:
We treat every move as if it were our own home, keeping both your possessions and your new and old properties protected from start to finish.
From riverside apartments to terraced houses, we handle full home moves across Putney. We are familiar with local parking restrictions, building access rules and the best times of day to move, helping everything run more smoothly.
For small offices and home-based businesses, we move desks, chairs, IT equipment and files with minimal disruption. We can schedule moves outside standard working hours where needed to help you keep operating.
Sometimes dates change unexpectedly. Where our schedule allows, we can provide same-day or next-day house removals within Putney and nearby areas. We prioritise clear communication about available time slots and realistic expectations for what can be achieved at short notice.
The cost of house removals in Putney depends on the size of your property, the volume of items, access at each address and the distance travelled. Smaller flat moves may be priced on an hourly rate, while larger house moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. Optional services such as packing, dismantling furniture or supplying materials will affect the final cost. After a brief discussion, and where helpful a survey, we provide a clear written quote so you know exactly what is included before you decide.
Yes, where our schedule allows, we can often help with same-day or short-notice moves in and around Putney. Availability will depend on the size of the move, the time you contact us and existing bookings. For urgent moves, having an accurate list of items and clear access information helps us respond more quickly. While we do our best to accommodate last-minute requests, booking in advance will always give you more choice of dates and times and may be more cost-effective.
We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, and public liability insurance for work carried out at your properties. Like all policies, there are terms, conditions and limits, which we are happy to explain before you book. We always recommend that high-value, personal or irreplaceable items are highlighted in advance and, where appropriate, additionally covered under your own home insurance for complete peace of mind.
Our standard service includes a suitable removals vehicle, a trained moving team, protective blankets and equipment, loading at your current address, transport to your new property and unloading into the rooms you specify. We can also provide optional packing services, packing materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and disposal of unwanted items by arrangement. Before the move, we explain clearly what is and is not included, so you can choose the level of help that best fits your budget and timescale.
While we offer a flexible man-and-van style solution, our house removals service adds structure, reliability and protection. You benefit from trained staff, fully insured vehicles, a planned schedule and a clear, written quote. We conduct surveys for larger moves, bring the right equipment, and follow professional loading and protection methods. Many basic man-and-van operators do not offer this level of planning or insurance, which can leave you exposed if anything goes wrong during your move.
For the widest choice of dates, we recommend booking your Putney house removal as soon as you have a confirmed moving date, ideally 2–4 weeks in advance for larger properties. That said, we often accommodate moves at shorter notice, especially for smaller flats and student moves, depending on availability. If your completion date is uncertain, we can still discuss provisional plans and options so that when your date is confirmed, we are ready to secure a slot for you quickly.
At Man and Van Putney, we provide reliable, carefully planned furniture removals across Putney and the surrounding areas. With years of hands-on experience moving everything from single items to full homes and offices, we know how to move your furniture safely, efficiently and with minimal disruption.
Our furniture removals service is designed for anyone who needs bulky or valuable items moved without the stress. Whether you're moving within Putney, across London, or further afield, our trained team handles all the heavy lifting, protection and transport, so you don’t have to.
We use purpose-built removal vehicles, industry-standard moving equipment and protective materials to ensure your furniture is moved securely from A to B. From dismantling large wardrobes to carefully wrapping glass cabinets, every move is planned around the specific items we’re handling.
Working in Putney day in, day out means we understand the layout, traffic patterns and parking challenges of the area. Whether you’re on Putney High Street, near the river, or in a top-floor flat off Upper Richmond Road, we’ve likely moved furniture on your street before.
Our local knowledge helps us:
This local experience means a smoother, more predictable move for you, with fewer surprises on the day.
If you’re moving house or refreshing your furniture, we manage everything from full household moves to moving just a few key pieces. We’re used to handling large sofas, beds, dining sets and family heirlooms with care.
Whether you’re changing flats, downsizing, or moving in with friends, our flexible service suits renters who often have stairs, limited parking and tight timeframes to deal with. We work efficiently to keep disruption to neighbours and landlords to a minimum.
We support landlords with tenant changeovers, part-furnished and fully furnished lets. From removing old or damaged items to installing new furniture throughout a property, we handle it in a neat and organised way.
Offices, shops and small businesses in Putney rely on us for furniture removals when relocating, refurbishing, or clearing space. We move desks, cabinets, meeting tables, shelving and reception furniture, keeping downtime as low as possible.
Students moving into or out of halls or shared houses often have a mix of flat-pack furniture, mattresses, desks and personal items. We offer budget-friendly options and smaller vehicles to suit lighter loads.
For safety, legal or insurance reasons, we usually cannot move:
If you have an unusual or particularly heavy item, let us know during the enquiry stage – we can often make arrangements or recommend the best solution.
You contact us with details of what needs moving, where from, and where to. We ask clear, practical questions about access, floors, parking and any delicate or oversized pieces. Based on this, we provide a transparent, no-obligation quote outlining what is included.
For larger moves or tricky properties, we’ll carry out a short virtual or onsite survey. This lets us assess stairways, lifts, door widths and item sizes. It helps us decide how many movers and what type of vehicle and equipment are needed, reducing the risk of delays on moving day.
On the day, or beforehand if you choose our packing service, we protect your furniture using blankets, covers, wraps and export-standard materials where required. We can dismantle larger items (beds, wardrobes, tables) and label components for reassembly at your new address.
Our professional team loads your furniture systematically, securing items with straps and using padding to prevent movement in transit. We plan routes to minimise delays and drive smoothly to protect your belongings. All goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while being transported.
At your new property, we unload items into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it. If we dismantled anything, we can reassemble it by prior agreement. We tidy as we go, removing our packing materials and checking you’re satisfied before we leave.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our quotes are usually based on:
You’ll receive a written summary of what’s included, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. There are no hidden extras for standard jobs; any potential additional costs (for example, parking fees or congestion/ULEZ charges) are discussed openly in advance.
Moving furniture yourself or using an informal man-with-a-van may seem cheaper, but it often carries hidden risks and stress. Our fully insured and trained team brings the right equipment, vehicles and experience to handle awkward, heavy and delicate items safely.
Benefits of using a professional removals company include:
Man and Van Putney operates to high professional standards for every move. We provide:
We keep our vehicles well maintained and clean, and we regularly review our working methods in line with industry best practice.
Looking after your belongings and the environment are both important to us. We:
Where we remove old or unwanted furniture, we aim to send it to reuse or recycling channels rather than landfill where this is practical.
From one-bed flats to family homes, we manage complete furniture moves and partial loads. We’re used to tight staircases, terrace houses and split-level properties in Putney and beyond.
We support businesses moving within the area or to new locations across London. Our services include dismantling and reassembling desks, moving filing and storage units, and coordinating moves to reduce operational downtime.
Situations such as sudden tenancy changes, last-minute completions or urgent clearances are common. Where possible, we offer same-day or next-day furniture removals, subject to availability, providing a calm, organised response when time is short.
The cost depends mainly on the volume of furniture, access conditions and travel distance. Smaller jobs, such as moving a few items locally, may be priced on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period. Larger house or office moves are usually quoted as a fixed price based on a survey. We include labour, vehicle, fuel and standard protection materials in our quotes. Any potential extras, such as parking charges or extended waiting times, are explained in advance so you know exactly what to budget for.
Yes, we can often help with same-day or short-notice moves, especially within Putney and nearby areas, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. If you need urgent assistance, contact us as early as possible with details of what needs to be moved and the addresses involved. We’ll let you know immediately what slots are available and provide a clear estimate. For very short notice work, flexibility on timing and vehicle size can increase the chances that we can fit you in.
Yes. Your furniture is covered by our goods in transit insurance while it’s being transported in our vehicles. We also hold public liability cover in case of accidental damage to third-party property. Insurance is there for peace of mind, but our primary aim is to avoid problems through careful planning, correct packing and safe handling. We’ll explain the key points of our cover when you book. If you have particularly high-value or specialist items, let us know so we can discuss the best protection.
Our standard service includes a suitable vehicle, a professional team of movers, protective blankets and basic wrapping for furniture, loading and unloading, and transport between the agreed addresses. By prior arrangement we can also provide dismantling and reassembly of larger items, full or partial packing services, and disposal of unwanted furniture. We place items into the rooms you specify at your new property and can position the major pieces where you’d like them. All inclusions are clearly listed in your written quote.
A casual man-and-van often offers simple transport with limited protection, no formal insurance and little planning. As a professional removals company, we provide structured services: trained staff, appropriate vehicles, insurance, written quotes and agreed timings. We bring the right equipment and materials to protect your furniture and property, and we follow proven methods for packing, lifting and loading. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and unexpected costs, and gives you a clear point of contact before, during and after the move.
For most moves, booking one to two weeks in advance gives the best choice of dates and times, especially if you need a specific day or are moving at busy periods such as month-end. However, we understand that completion dates and tenancy changes can shift, so we try to be flexible. If your dates are uncertain, we can pencil in a provisional slot and confirm closer to the time. For smaller jobs, we can often accommodate bookings at much shorter notice, subject to availability.
When you need to move today, you need a removals team that is organised, responsive and local. At Man and Van Putney we provide fast, reliable same day removals in Putney and the surrounding areas, carried out by trained, professional and fully insured crews.
Our same day removals service is designed for moves that simply cannot wait. Whether it is a flat move across Putney, an urgent office relocation or a last‑minute clearance, we react quickly, plan efficiently and keep you informed at every stage.
Because we are based in Putney, we know the one‑way systems, parking restrictions and peak traffic times. That local knowledge allows us to choose the best routes, arrange parking exemptions where possible and keep your urgent move on schedule.
Chain issues, completion dates brought forward or a removals firm cancelling on you at the last minute – we see it all. We step in quickly to provide same day house removals across Putney, from studio apartments to family homes, protecting your belongings and keeping your move on track.
Tenancy ending unexpectedly or needing to move out today to avoid extra rent? Our same day flat removals service helps renters vacate properties quickly and in good order, minimising stress and helping you meet your landlord’s deadlines.
For landlords and agents, we offer fast same day tenant clearances and furniture moves. Whether you need a property cleared for new tenants or items moved between lets, we work efficiently and respectfully, keeping disruption to neighbours to a minimum.
We support local businesses with same day office removals, urgent equipment moves and emergency relocations. From small offices to retail units, we move furniture, IT equipment and stock safely, helping you stay operational with minimal downtime.
Students often face tight deadlines at the end of term or last‑minute accommodation changes. Our same day student removals are ideal for halls, shared houses and studios in and around Putney, with flexible van sizes and pricing to suit smaller loads.
On a same day basis we routinely move:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from standard same day work or require prior discussion:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise honestly and suggest practical solutions.
Call or message us as early as possible. We will ask key questions: collection and delivery addresses, property type, floors, access, approximate volume and any time constraints. Where time is tight, we can often provide a clear, fixed or hourly quote based on photos and a brief list of items.
For larger or more complex moves we may carry out a rapid video survey. This allows us to assess volume, access, parking and any special handling requirements. For smaller or straightforward jobs, clear photos and your description are usually enough. The aim is to arrive with the right team, van size and equipment first time.
Where possible, we ask that small items are boxed before we arrive. However, we can provide a same day packing service subject to availability. Our team protect furniture using padded covers, removal blankets and securing straps. Mattresses, TVs and other delicate items receive particular care to minimise the risk of damage in transit.
Our trained movers load your belongings systematically, heavier items first and fragile pieces protected. We use sack trucks, dollies and, where available, lifts to move efficiently and safely. Vans are clean, well‑maintained and fitted with tie‑rails for secure transport across Putney and further afield.
At your new address we unload in an organised way, placing items into the rooms you specify. We will position larger furniture where you want it and stack boxes sensibly so you can unpack easily. Before we leave, we check that everything listed has been delivered and that you are satisfied with the placement.
Urgent moves need clear costs. We offer straightforward pricing for our same day work:
There are no hidden call‑out fees. Any potential additional costs (such as congestion or parking charges, extra flights of stairs not disclosed, or extended waiting times imposed by third parties) are explained in advance wherever possible.
When time is short, attempting a DIY move can quickly become risky and expensive. Hiring a van, finding helpers, sourcing packing materials and navigating Putney’s roads in an unfamiliar vehicle all add pressure.
Using a professional same day removals team means:
Casual, unregulated man‑and‑van services may look cheaper at first glance, but often lack proper insurance, training and accountability. With Man and Van Putney you know exactly who is handling your possessions and what standards we work to.
We take our responsibility for your belongings seriously. Our service includes:
We follow sensible handling practices, use appropriate protective materials and conduct regular checks on our vehicles and equipment. Any potential risks are explained openly so you can make informed decisions.
Even when time is tight, we do not cut corners on care. Furniture is wrapped or covered, loads are secured and fragile items are clearly identified and handled accordingly.
We are also conscious of our environmental impact. Where possible we:
A family faced a last‑minute change to their completion date and had to be out the same day. We provided a multi‑van team, completed a rapid survey that morning and moved them into temporary accommodation, storing non‑essential items until their new property was ready.
A small business needed to vacate serviced offices in Putney at 24 hours’ notice. We dismantled desks, packed IT equipment, moved them to a new space across town and had them operational again the same evening.
A student needed to leave halls the same day after a room change. We collected from campus, moved belongings into a new flat and returned keys on time, all within an agreed two‑hour window.
Costs depend on volume, access and distance. For smaller local moves we usually charge an hourly rate that includes the van, fuel and at least one or two movers. Larger or more complex jobs are often better on a fixed price, agreed in advance after a quick assessment. Same day work can sometimes carry a premium, particularly at peak times, but we always explain this upfront. Contact us with your details and we will provide a clear, no‑obligation estimate before any commitment.
We do our best to accommodate genuine emergencies, and during quieter periods same day slots are often available. Availability depends on existing bookings, the size of the job and travel times. Smaller flat or student moves are usually easier to fit in at short notice than large house or office relocations. The earlier in the day you contact us, the better chance we have to schedule a team for you. If we cannot help within your timescale, we will tell you honestly rather than over‑promise.
Yes. Our goods in transit insurance applies to same day removals in the same way as planned moves. This cover is designed to protect your belongings while they are being loaded, transported and unloaded, subject to normal terms and conditions. We also carry public liability cover for work at your property. We will explain any exclusions, such as unboxed fragile items or prohibited goods, so you know exactly what is and is not covered before we start.
Our standard service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional moving team, basic protective equipment (blankets, straps and covers) and loading/unloading to and from the rooms you specify. For many customers we also dismantle and reassemble simple furniture on request. Optional extras, such as packing materials or a full packing service, can often be added if time and availability allow. We confirm everything included in writing so you have a clear understanding before the move begins.
We operate as a structured removals company, not as an occasional side job. That means properly trained staff, fully insured vehicles, documented procedures and accountable service. Our teams are experienced in handling full house and office moves, not just single items. We use appropriate protective materials, carry the right equipment and plan each job rather than simply turning up and improvising. The difference shows in how your belongings are treated, how issues are handled and how smoothly your moving day runs.
For genuine same day moves, contact us as early as you can – ideally first thing in the morning. This gives us the best chance to allocate a team and vehicle, particularly for larger properties. If you know your move is likely to be urgent but do not yet have a fixed time, it is still worth getting in touch to discuss options. For planned moves, booking several days or weeks ahead will usually secure better choice of slots and more flexibility on pricing.
At Man and Van Putney we provide a reliable, fully managed man and van removals service for homes, flats, offices and students across Putney and surrounding areas. With years of hands-on experience on local streets, we combine practical know‑how with a calm, professional approach to make moving day straightforward and stress‑free.
Our service is designed as a flexible, cost‑effective option for smaller to medium moves and quick, local relocations. Typical jobs we handle include:
Every move includes a clean, well‑maintained van, a trained uniformed mover/driver and all the standard loading, transport and unloading required. Extra helpers and packing services can be added as needed.
Working daily in Putney means we understand local roads, parking restrictions and building layouts. We regularly move customers in and out of:
This local knowledge helps us plan realistic timings, choose the right vehicle, and minimise disruption to neighbours and traffic. It also means we can often help with practical advice on permits, lift access and best loading points for your specific building.
Ideal if you are moving from a smaller house or flat and want a more personal, flexible service than a large removals crew. We can handle partial moves, downsizing and short‑distance relocations.
Perfect for tenants moving between rented properties, often with tight check‑out timescales and inventory requirements. We work carefully around communal areas and protect walls, floors and lifts.
We assist landlords with clearing properties between tenancies, removing unwanted furniture, and repositioning items between properties, all handled by a professional, respectful team.
From small offices to retail units, our man and van option covers internal moves, small relocations, archive moves and deliveries. We work efficiently to reduce downtime and can schedule outside normal hours.
Our service suits students moving to or from Putney, Roehampton and surrounding universities. We understand budget constraints, smaller loads and the need for flexible dates at the start and end of term.
Our Man and Van Putney team is equipped to move most household and office items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we do not move:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we are happy to advise before you book.
Contact us by phone, email or our online form with basic details: addresses, property type, date and what you are moving. We will ask a few focused questions to understand access, parking and any large or fragile items. Based on this, we provide a clear, no‑obligation quote.
For anything more than a simple single‑item job, we may suggest a short video call or onsite survey. This helps us assess volume, access (stairs, lifts, tight corridors) and parking. Accurate surveying ensures the right van size, the correct number of movers and realistic timing on the day.
You can choose from:
We label items clearly for easy placement at your new property.
On moving day we arrive on time, introduce ourselves and walk through the job with you before starting. We use padded covers for furniture, mattress protectors, and trained lifting techniques to protect both your belongings and our team. Items are loaded securely, then transported directly to your new address in a suitable vehicle.
At the destination we unload in an organised way, placing furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify. We assemble basic items we dismantled for transport, and we do a final check with you before leaving to make sure nothing has been missed on the van.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes are usually based on:
Parking charges, congestion or toll fees are discussed in advance where they apply. You will always know what you are paying for before you confirm the booking.
Hiring a professional man and van team offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using an unverified casual service:
As a reputable removals operator in Putney, we maintain robust insurance and service standards:
We treat every item as if it were our own, working methodically and respectfully in your home or workplace.
We focus on careful handling and a responsible approach:
Our aim is to move you efficiently while minimising waste and disruption.
For smaller homes and flats, our service offers the right balance of capacity and flexibility. We can often complete local moves in half a day, reducing stress and allowing you to settle in quickly.
From single‑room offices to small multi‑desk setups, we move furniture, IT equipment and archives securely. We can work early mornings, evenings or weekends to minimise downtime for your team.
Things do not always go to plan. When you need to move at short notice in Putney, we do our best to offer same‑day or next‑day man and van availability. A quick phone assessment lets us confirm what is achievable within the time you have.
Costs vary depending on the size of van, number of movers and how long the job takes. Smaller local moves are often priced on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, while clearly defined jobs can be offered at a fixed price. Factors such as distance, access issues, stairs and parking can all affect the final cost. Once we know the details of your move, we provide a clear written quotation so you know exactly what to expect before you commit.
We can often accommodate same‑day or urgent moves in Putney, especially for smaller jobs and single‑item collections. Availability depends on our schedule and the size of van and crew you require, so it is best to call as early as possible. We will quickly assess what you need, check our diary and offer realistic options. Even when we cannot meet your exact time, we will usually be able to suggest a practical alternative that keeps your move on track.
Yes. Our service includes goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are in our care and on our vehicles. We also hold public liability cover for accidental damage to third‑party property. Insurance cover is subject to standard terms and limits, which we are happy to explain in plain language before you book. For particularly high‑value or unusual items, we may recommend additional cover or a tailored approach to ensure everything is properly protected.
A standard booking includes a suitable van, a professional driver/mover, loading at the collection address, safe transport and unloading at your destination. We provide basic protection such as blankets and straps, and place items into the rooms you specify. Optional extras include additional movers, packing services, supply of boxes and packing materials, and dismantling or reassembly of simple furniture. All inclusions and any extra charges are stated clearly in your quotation so there are no surprises on the day.
A full removals service typically uses a larger team and vehicle, with more extensive packing, planning and handling for big house or office moves. A man and van service, like ours in Putney, is more flexible and cost‑effective for smaller loads, short‑distance moves and quick transport jobs. The same trained, fully insured standards apply, but with a lighter setup and lower cost. If you are unsure which you need, we will advise honestly based on the volume of items and complexity of your move.
For weekend or end‑of‑month moves in Putney, we recommend booking at least 1–2 weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as summer and around university term dates. Mid‑week and off‑peak slots can often be arranged at shorter notice. If you have a fixed completion or check‑out date, contact us as soon as you know it so we can reserve a suitable slot. We always try to accommodate last‑minute requests, but early booking gives you the best choice of times and pricing.
At Man and Van Putney, our removal van service is designed for people who want a professional, organised move rather than a casual van and a favour from a friend. We combine local Putney knowledge with years of hands-on removals experience to move you safely, efficiently and with minimum stress.
Our removal van service in Putney is a fully managed move, not just a vehicle and a driver. You get a modern, well-maintained van, a trained moving team and a structured process from first enquiry to final placement of your belongings.
Every move is tailored. We match the right size van and team to your property, access and volume of belongings.
Working day in, day out in SW15 and the surrounding areas means we understand Putney’s streets, traffic patterns and parking restrictions. From narrow residential roads off Putney High Street to riverfront properties and mansion blocks, we know how to plan a move that actually works on the day.
We routinely coordinate with local councils and building managers for parking and access, and our crews are used to dealing with stairs, lifts and tight hallways commonly found in Putney properties. This local knowledge reduces delays and protects your belongings and the building.
Whether you are upgrading, downsizing, relocating for work, or simply moving a few key items, we provide the same level of professional planning and care.
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, our removal vans do not carry:
If you are unsure about any item, ask us in advance. We will advise on what we can move, and how best to prepare it.
Contact us by phone or online with your moving details: addresses, dates, property size and any special items. We will ask the right questions to understand access, parking and volume. Based on this, we provide a clear, written quote with no hidden extras, outlining the size of van, crew and what is included.
For larger or more complex moves, we recommend a virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to see access restrictions, estimate the volume accurately and plan for dismantling or protection. A proper survey is the simplest way to avoid surprises on moving day and to ensure the correct removals van and team are allocated.
You can pack yourself, or use our packing service. If you choose our packing option, our trained team will bring quality materials and pack your belongings securely and logically. Even if you pack your own boxes, we can supply packing materials and advise on best practice to reduce the risk of damage.
On the day, our team arrives on time, protects floors and key areas where needed, and loads your goods methodically. Furniture is wrapped or covered where appropriate, and items are positioned in the van to prevent movement in transit. Our removal vans are equipped with blankets, straps and trolleys, and are driven by experienced, careful drivers familiar with Putney and beyond.
At your new address, we unload and place items in the rooms you specify. We reassemble any furniture we dismantled as agreed, and check that nothing is left on the vehicle. Before we leave, we invite you to walk through and make sure you are happy with the placement and the condition of your belongings.
We believe in straightforward pricing. Our quotes are based on:
We typically offer either a fixed-price move (for clearly defined jobs) or an hourly rate with a minimum booking period (for smaller or flexible jobs). Everything is explained in advance so you know exactly what you are paying for and what is included.
Hiring a van and doing it yourself can seem cheaper on paper, but in practice it often leads to extra trips, damage, delays and stress. With a professional removal van service from Man and Van Putney you get:
For most people, the cost difference between DIY and using a proper removals team is outweighed by the reduction in risk, effort and stress.
We take responsibility seriously. Man and Van Putney operates with:
We follow industry best practice for loading, securing and transporting goods, and we record key details of every move. This approach keeps your possessions safer and ensures you know exactly who is responsible from start to finish.
Protecting your belongings and the environment is built into how we work.
We aim to move you with care, not waste. By planning properly, we reduce both damage risk and environmental impact.
From riverside apartments to terraced houses, we regularly handle full household moves within Putney and to other parts of London and the UK. We coordinate with estate agents, manage tight completion day schedules and work around parking limitations common in SW15.
We help small offices, clinics and high street businesses move with minimal downtime. Out-of-hours and weekend moves are available so you can keep trading. Desks, chairs, IT equipment and files are labelled, loaded and placed methodically so your staff can get back to work quickly.
When plans change suddenly – a tenancy issue, a last-minute exchange, or an urgent item that needs to be moved – our removal vans can often be booked at short notice. Availability varies by day, but we will always be honest about what we can realistically achieve and the costs involved.
Costs depend on the size of the move, distance, access and services required. Smaller local moves in Putney may be priced on an hourly basis with a minimum booking, while full house moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. Packing, dismantling and awkward access can add to the cost, but everything is explained in your written quote. The best way to get an accurate figure is to contact us with your details so we can assess the volume and advise on the most cost-effective option.
Yes, we often can, depending on existing bookings and crew availability. Same-day or urgent moves are more likely to be possible on weekdays and outside of peak periods such as month-end. If you need a removal van at short notice in Putney, call us as early as you can with accurate information on your load and timing. We will confirm what is realistically achievable and provide a clear price before you commit, so you are not surprised on the day.
Yes. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being handled by our team and transported on our vehicles. In addition, we hold public liability cover for your protection. Insurance has sensible limits and conditions, so we recommend that very high-value items such as jewellery or important documents are kept with you. We will outline the key points of cover when you book and are happy to answer any specific insurance questions before moving day.
Our standard service includes the removal van, fuel, a professional driver and moving team, loading and unloading, and basic protection such as blankets and securing straps. We place items in the rooms you request at your new property. Optional extras include packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, provision of packing materials and disposal of certain unwanted items. Your quote will clearly state what is included so you can compare like-for-like and decide which options suit your move and budget.
A casual man-and-van usually offers a vehicle and a driver, sometimes with limited help loading. A professional removals service, like ours in Putney, provides trained staff, structured planning, fully insured cover and proper equipment. We conduct surveys where needed, protect your property, manage access and timings and take responsibility for the entire move. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and disputes. For anything beyond a very small, simple job, most people find the added reliability and accountability well worth the difference in cost.
For a planned home or office move, we recommend booking as soon as you have a confirmed date – ideally 2–4 weeks in advance, especially if you are moving at month-end or on a Friday or Saturday. This gives us time to arrange surveys, parking and crew scheduling. That said, we regularly accommodate last-minute moves when our diary allows. If your dates are not yet fixed, we can provide a provisional quote and discuss likely availability so you know your options.
At Man and Van Putney, we provide reliable, well-organised removal services across Putney and the surrounding areas. With years of hands-on experience moving households, businesses, and students, we understand how to plan and carry out a smooth move, whether you are relocating a small flat or a multi-floor office.
Our removals team handles the full process of your move, from initial planning through to placing furniture in the right rooms at your new property. We combine careful packing, secure transport and efficient unloading to reduce stress and downtime.
Being based in Putney means we know the local area extremely well. From riverfront flats and period terraces off the Upper Richmond Road to mansion blocks and new developments, we are used to tight staircases, controlled parking zones and building management requirements.
We plan routes to avoid congestion where possible, arrange parking where needed and liaise with concierge or building managers when required. This local knowledge helps us deliver a punctual, efficient service, particularly on busy move days at month-end and during peak rental periods.
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or moving out of Putney altogether, we provide structured, well-planned moves for homeowners. We can handle everything from fragile packing to transporting garden and garage contents.
For tenants moving between rented properties, timing and condition are crucial. We work carefully to help you leave the property clean and undamaged, and we can assist with moving at short notice when completion dates or landlord decisions change.
Landlords use our professional removal services for end-of-tenancy clearances, part-furnished changes and moving furniture between properties. We work respectfully within block rules and time windows to keep neighbours and managing agents on side.
Local businesses in Putney rely on us for office relocations, internal moves and the transport of stock or equipment. We minimise downtime by planning moves for evenings or weekends where needed and ensuring IT, files and furniture arrive in a logical order.
Students moving to or from Putney benefit from our small-load options. We regularly help with moves to halls, shared houses and storage units, keeping costs sensible while still providing a fully insured and organised service.
If you are unsure whether an item can be moved, we will clarify this during your survey so everything is clear in advance.
You contact us with the basics of your move: addresses, dates, property types and rough contents. We discuss your requirements, access and any particular concerns. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation estimate, outlining what is included so you know exactly what to expect.
For most moves, we carry out a short survey, either in person or via video call. This allows us to assess volume, parking, stairs or lift access, and any fragile or awkward items. The survey ensures we supply the right size vehicle, the correct number of trained movers, and the appropriate equipment.
On moving day, or beforehand if you choose our packing service, we protect your belongings using quality materials: double-walled boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper and furniture blankets. We can provide professional full packing, partial packing (for fragile items only), or simply supply materials if you prefer to pack yourself.
Our removal team carefully loads your items in a logical order, protecting furniture with blankets and securing everything using straps. Vehicles are clean, well-maintained and suitable for removals work. We then transport your goods directly to your new property, taking sensible routes and handling items with care throughout.
At the new address, we unload and place furniture and boxes in the correct rooms as directed. We reassemble any items we dismantled earlier and ensure major pieces are positioned where you want them before we finish. Rubbish and materials are kept tidy; we aim to leave both properties in good order.
We believe in clear, honest pricing. Our removal services are typically priced based on:
We provide a written quote so you can see what is included. There are no hidden extras for standard moves; any potential additional charges (such as congestion charges, tolls or waiting time) are explained in advance where they might apply.
Moving yourself, or relying on a casual man-and-van, can seem cheaper initially but often leads to extra stress, damage and delays. Our professional removal service offers:
Using a reputable removals company means you are covered if something goes wrong and you avoid the physical strain and risk of injury that can come with moving heavy items yourself.
We take our responsibility for your belongings seriously. As a professional removal company, we maintain appropriate insurance and follow industry best practice.
We are happy to explain our cover in more detail and can provide confirmation of insurance on request. We also work to sensible health and safety practices on every job.
Your belongings and properties are treated with respect. We use furniture blankets, floor protection where necessary, and appropriate lifting techniques to safeguard items and buildings. Fragile items are wrapped properly, and we clearly label boxes to make unloading straightforward.
We are also mindful of our environmental impact. Where possible, we reuse durable packing materials, encourage customers to return or recycle boxes, and plan routes to minimise unnecessary mileage and emissions. When disposing of unwanted items, we aim to use licensed waste facilities or suggest donation options rather than landfill where practical.
From one-bedroom flats near Putney Bridge to family homes around Putney Heath, we regularly handle complete home moves. We plan timing around keys, cleaning and check-in inspections, keeping the day as smooth as possible.
For offices and small businesses, we offer carefully planned relocations, including packing files and IT equipment, dismantling desks and transporting stock. We can work outside normal hours to limit disruption to staff and customers.
Occasionally, moves arise at short notice due to completion changes, tenancy issues or personal circumstances. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day removal services in and around Putney. While advance booking is always best, we do our best to help when plans change unexpectedly.
Costs depend on the size of your move, distance, access and any extra services you require, such as packing or dismantling furniture. For smaller local moves, pricing may be based on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period. Larger house or office moves are usually quoted as a fixed price after a survey. The survey allows us to assess volume and complexity so we can provide an accurate, transparent quote. There are no hidden charges for standard work, and any potential extras are discussed in advance.
We can often help with same-day or urgent removals in Putney, especially for smaller moves, but availability depends on our schedule and vehicle capacity. If you have an urgent move, contact us as early as possible with full details so we can check options and confirm whether we can accommodate you. Where a full-scale same-day move is not realistic, we may still be able to move essential items or offer a partial service. Planning ahead remains the best way to secure your preferred date and time.
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are being transported in our vehicles, along with public liability cover for work carried out at your properties. As with any insurance, there are terms, limits and exclusions, which we are happy to explain before you book. We recommend that you inform us of any particularly high-value or unusual items so we can confirm cover in writing. Our aim is to give you peace of mind as well as careful handling throughout your move.
A standard removal service includes loading your furniture and boxes, protecting items with blankets and equipment, transporting them to your new address and unloading into the appropriate rooms. At your request, we can add services such as supplying packing materials, full or partial packing, and dismantling or reassembling furniture. We discuss your needs at the quotation stage so the final price reflects exactly what you want us to do. Cleaning, waste clearance and specialist items may need separate arrangements or additional services.
A casual man-and-van may be suitable for very small, simple jobs, but it rarely offers the planning, protection and insurance that a professional removal service provides. We conduct surveys, allocate the right size vehicle and team, use protective equipment and follow proper lifting and loading techniques. Our work is fully insured, and our crews are trained and experienced in handling everything from fragile items to heavy furniture. This reduces the risk of damage, avoids delays and gives you a clear point of contact throughout your move.
Ideally, you should book your removal as soon as you have a confirmed moving date. For busy times of the year, such as the end of the month and summer, we recommend at least two to three weeks’ notice to secure your preferred day and time. However, we understand that dates can change, particularly with property sales, so we try to be flexible where possible. Even if your date is not fully confirmed, it is worth discussing your plans with us early so we can pencil you into the diary and advise on availability.
At Man and Van Putney we provide secure, flexible storage solutions for homes and businesses across Putney and the surrounding areas. Whether you are between moves, decluttering, renovating or needing extra commercial space, we offer a professionally managed service that keeps your belongings safe, organised and easily accessible.
We are a local, independent removals and storage company based in Putney, serving SW15 and nearby areas every day. Because we know the local roads, parking restrictions and building layouts, we can plan collections and returns efficiently, reducing disruption and minimising handling of your items.
All collections and deliveries are carried out by our own trained, uniformed and professional teams, using purpose-built vehicles and protective equipment. You deal with one company for both removals and storage, which keeps things simple, accountable and consistent.
If you are selling, downsizing or renovating, our storage service gives you a safe place to keep furniture, appliances and personal items while you get your home in order. We can collect from your property, pack if required, store for as long as needed and deliver back to your new or refurbished home.
Tenancy ending but your new place is not ready yet? We regularly help renters bridge that gap with short-term storage. Store a single room or a whole flat, with flexible terms and clear pricing so you are not tied into long contracts.
Landlords often use our storage when changing from furnished to unfurnished lets, or while refurbishing between tenancies. We can remove and store furniture, white goods and décor, then return and reinstall items when you are ready.
From small offices to growing retailers, our storage service is ideal for documents, archived files, stock, exhibition materials and spare office furniture. We offer scheduled or ad-hoc collections and can combine storage with office removals for a seamless move.
Students in Putney and across London use our service to store belongings over holidays, gap years or while changing accommodation. We can collect from halls or student housing, store everything safely, then deliver to your new address at the start of term.
Our storage solutions are designed for everyday household and business items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, there are some items we cannot accept into storage:
If you are unsure whether an item can be stored, we will advise you clearly before collection so there are no surprises.
Contact us by phone, email or our online form and tell us what you need to store, where from, and for how long. We will ask a few straightforward questions about access, volume and any fragile or unusual items. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quotation outlining collection costs, storage charges and delivery back.
For larger jobs or full household contents, we recommend a virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to assess the volume accurately, plan parking and access, and identify any special packing requirements. Surveys are carried out by an experienced move coordinator, not a call centre, so you receive practical advice from someone who has done the work many times.
On the day, we can either collect pre-packed boxes or provide a full packing service. Our team uses quality materials such as double-walled cartons, furniture blankets and export wrap where necessary. Upholstery is covered, mattresses are bagged, and delicate items are wrapped carefully to minimise the risk of damage during handling and while in storage.
Your items are loaded onto our dedicated removal vehicles, secured using straps and protective blankets. We take care with stairways, lifts and communal areas to avoid damage to both your property and shared spaces. The load is then transported directly to our chosen storage facility, avoiding unnecessary handling or cross-loading.
At the storage facility, we unload and place your items systematically into your allocated storage space. Contents are stacked safely, heavy items at the bottom and fragile items on top, with walkways where appropriate. We can label or list items on request to make later retrieval simpler. When you are ready, we arrange a convenient delivery back to your new or existing address.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing for all storage and removals services. Your quote will typically include:
There are no hidden fees for access or standard handling. If additional services are required, such as dismantling large furniture or specialist packing, these will be explained and priced clearly in advance. We can advise on how to reduce costs by optimising space and decluttering before storage.
Using a professional removals and storage company is very different from hiring a casual van or a basic self-storage unit:
A purely DIY approach can seem cheaper at first, but by the time you factor in vehicle hire, fuel, lost time, potential damage and inconvenience, a professional service often represents better value and far less stress.
As a responsible removals and storage provider, we maintain comprehensive insurance and strong professional standards:
We handle your possessions as if they were our own, keeping clear records, labelling where appropriate and maintaining tidy, secure storage areas.
We take care not only of your belongings but also of the environment and the communities we serve.
Our aim is to provide secure and considerate storage with minimal waste and disruption.
Completion dates do not always line up perfectly. We regularly store full or partial house contents for a few days or several months while customers wait for keys, complete renovations or finalise purchases. This avoids pressure to rush and keeps your belongings out of the way and protected.
Businesses often need interim storage during office moves, fit-outs or restructures. We can hold furniture, IT kit and paperwork securely while your new premises are prepared. Once ready, we deliver and install everything according to your floor plan.
Sometimes moves are unplanned – sudden tenancy changes, water damage, or other emergencies. We can often provide rapid response storage, collecting items on short notice and holding them safely while you make longer-term arrangements.
Storage costs depend on three main factors: how much space you need, how long you need it for, and whether you require collection, packing and delivery. We charge a clear weekly or monthly rate based on volume, plus one-off fees for collection and return. There are no hidden access charges for standard retrievals we undertake. Once we have a rough list or survey of your items, we provide a written quotation so you can see the full cost before you decide.
In many cases we can arrange same-day or urgent storage collection in Putney, especially for smaller loads or single-room moves. Availability does depend on our schedule and current storage capacity, but we always do our best to accommodate emergencies such as last-minute tenancy changes or unexpected building works. Contact us as early in the day as possible, explain your situation, and we will confirm what we can do along with realistic timescales and costs before you commit.
Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved, and by our standard storage cover while they are in our allocated facility, subject to policy terms and declared values. We will explain the level of cover included as part of your quotation and, if required, you can request higher-value cover for specific items. We also operate with public liability insurance for work at your property, giving you comprehensive protection throughout the process.
Our storage service can be as simple or as comprehensive as you need. As standard, we provide collection from your address, careful loading, secure transport, placement into storage and delivery back at the end of the term. You can add packing services, supply of boxes and materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and itemised inventories if required. We handle the heavy lifting and logistics so you do not have to manage multiple trips to a storage unit or worry about safe stacking.
A casual man-and-van typically offers transport only, with limited or no insurance, no structured storage, and little accountability once items are dropped off. Self-storage puts all the loading, unloading and organisation on you. With us, you get professional teams, organised storage, insurance cover and a single point of responsibility from door to door. We plan, pack, move and store your belongings correctly, reducing the risk of damage, loss and stress compared with piecing together different services yourself.
For planned moves or renovations, aiming to book one to three weeks in advance gives the best choice of dates and time slots, particularly at busy periods such as month-end and summer. However, we understand that plans can change quickly. If you need storage at short notice, contact us as soon as possible and we will check availability. Because we manage both removals and storage in-house, we can often be more flexible than separate providers when schedules shift.
At Man and Van Putney we provide a dedicated packing and boxes service for moves in and around Putney. As experienced local removals professionals, we know that careful packing is the difference between a smooth move and a stressful one. Our trained team, quality materials and organised labelling system keep your belongings safe from the moment we arrive until the last box is unpacked.
Our packing and boxes service covers everything from supplying strong, double-walled cartons to packing fragile items and preparing furniture for safe transport. You can choose:
Everything is handled by our trained, professional team using proven methods to protect your belongings and keep your move organised.
Working daily across Putney and the surrounding areas, we understand local properties and access challenges – from mansion flats along the river to terraced roads off Putney High Street. We plan the packing around your building layout, parking restrictions and lift access, so the move day runs smoothly. Our local knowledge also helps when scheduling, avoiding peak traffic and school run bottlenecks wherever possible.
If you are selling or buying in Putney, our full packing service takes the pressure off the week before completion. We protect furniture, artwork, glassware and family heirlooms, leaving you to focus on contracts, keys and utilities.
For tenants moving between flats or shared houses, we offer flexible part packing and evening or weekend options to fit around work. We help you leave the property in good order, reducing the risk of deposit disputes over damage.
Landlords use our service to clear or refit furnished lets. We can pack, label and store items between tenancies, or prepare a property for refurbishment with minimal disruption to neighbours or managing agents.
Offices, shops and studios in Putney rely on us for organised, labelled packing of files, IT equipment, stock and furniture. We work out-of-hours where required to minimise downtime and keep your operations running.
Students moving to or from halls and shared accommodation benefit from our cost-effective packing and boxes packages. We can pack, move and even store items over the holidays if needed.
We supply or can include in your package:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we normally exclude:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise during the survey.
You contact us with basic details: property size, addresses, dates and whether you need full or part packing. We provide an initial estimate and explain options clearly so you can choose what suits your budget and timescale.
We then carry out a virtual or onsite survey. This lets us see access, measure volume, identify fragile or special items and decide how many boxes and packers will be needed. The survey forms the basis of your written, no-obligation quotation.
On the agreed day, our trained team arrives with all materials. We systematically pack room by room, using the right size cartons and protective materials. Each box is labelled with contents and destination room. Furniture is wrapped, and, where agreed, dismantled for safe transport.
Once packed, boxes and furniture are carefully moved to the vehicle using trolleys and floor protection where necessary. Our vehicles are clean, dry and equipped with blankets and securing straps. As a fully insured operator, we take time to load correctly so everything travels securely.
At your new address, we unload and place boxes and furniture into the correct rooms as labelled. If you have chosen our unpacking service, we will unbox items onto flat surfaces and remove used packing materials for recycling or reuse.
We base our prices on a clear set of factors:
All costs are explained in your written quote so you know exactly what is included. There are no hidden charges for standard materials agreed in advance. If you prefer, we can quote separate line items for packing labour, materials and unpacking so you can mix and match to suit your budget.
Many people start by thinking they will pack themselves and quickly realise how time-consuming and physically demanding it is. Our professional team brings:
Compared with a casual man-and-van using mixed bags and reused boxes, our professional service offers structure, documentation and insurance-backed protection.
Man and Van Putney operates to recognised industry standards. For your protection, we provide:
We will explain the key terms and limits of our cover before you book, and can discuss higher-value items individually where necessary.
Protecting your belongings is our first priority. We use appropriate wrapping, correct box sizes and careful stacking to avoid crushing or movement. Floors, banisters and doors are protected where needed, especially in communal areas.
We also consider the environment. Wherever possible we:
Families and individuals use our full packing option to take the stress out of move week. We often complete packing the day before removal, leaving essential items out until the last moment.
For offices, clinics and studios, we create a packing plan around your layout. Colour-coded labels mean everything arrives in the right department or area, helping you get back to work quickly.
When you have limited time – for example after a last-minute exchange or tenancy change – our team can mobilise quickly with enough staff to pack an entire property in a single day, subject to availability.
The cost depends mainly on the size of your property, how much you want us to pack and the materials required. A small flat with part packing will be much cheaper than a large family house with full packing and unpacking. After a short discussion and survey, we provide a clear, itemised quote showing labour and materials separately where helpful. This allows you to adjust the level of service to suit your budget while still benefiting from professional, fully insured support.
Where our schedule allows, we can provide same-day or short-notice packing in Putney, particularly outside peak periods. The more notice you can give, the better the chance of securing the exact date and time you want. For urgent moves, we may allocate additional staff to complete packing in a single visit. Contact us as soon as you know your dates and we will be honest about what is realistic while still maintaining our usual professional standards.
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, and public liability cover in case of accidental damage to property or third parties. Insurance is designed to complement, not replace, your own home or business policy, and certain exclusions and limits will apply. We explain the key points in plain language before you book so you understand exactly what is covered during packing, loading, transport and unloading.
Our service typically includes supply of suitable boxes, packing paper, tape and protective wraps, plus the labour to pack agreed items room by room. We label every box with contents and destination room, and protect furniture and fragile items appropriately. On move day we load and secure everything in the vehicle. At the new address, we place items in the correct rooms, and, if you select unpacking, we unbox and remove used materials. All inclusions are listed clearly in your written quotation.
A casual man-and-van will usually expect you to provide your own boxes and do all the packing. Our service is a structured, professional removals operation with trained staff, quality materials and insurance-backed protection. We plan the packing, manage access and loading, and take responsibility for the condition of your items while in our care, within agreed terms. For complex, high-value or time-sensitive moves, this level of organisation and accountability offers far greater reassurance than an informal transport-only option.
For moves in busier periods, we recommend booking packing at least two to three weeks in advance, especially if you need a specific date or weekend slot. That said, we often accommodate shorter notice, particularly for smaller properties or part packing. Once you have a likely move date, contact us to discuss options; we can pencil you in provisionally while details are finalised and then confirm once your dates are fixed. Early contact simply gives you more flexibility and choice.
Moving your workplace is a major project. At Man and Van Putney, we provide structured, reliable office removals in Putney and surrounding areas, designed to minimise disruption and keep your business running.
We specialise in small to medium-sized office removals, studio moves and multi-floor relocations across Putney and South West London. From a single room office to an entire floor, our trained team plans every move around your working hours, access requirements and IT needs.
Our crews are professional, uniformed and fully insured, using the right equipment, vehicles and packing materials to protect your assets and your premises.
Our office removals service is suitable for:
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or simply moving closer to clients or transport links, we tailor our service to your operational needs.
We can move almost every typical office item, including:
For safety, compliance and insurance reasons, some items are excluded:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise during the survey so there are no surprises on moving day.
You contact us with your move details: addresses, dates, size of office and any access constraints. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the information you supply, explaining what is included and any optional extras such as packing or out-of-hours work.
For most office moves we recommend a short survey. This can be virtual (video call) or onsite, depending on complexity. We assess volume, access, parking, lift use, IT equipment, and any special handling needs. This allows us to plan vehicle size, crew numbers, packing materials and timings accurately, and to liaise with building management where required.
We offer flexible packing options:
IT equipment is wrapped carefully and labelled by desk or department so it can be reassembled in the right place.
On move day, our trained crew arrives on time, protects floors and walls where needed and systematically loads our vehicles. We use sack trucks, dollies and blankets to move furniture safely and avoid damage. All goods travel in our sign-written vans under goods in transit insurance, with loads securely strapped and arranged to prevent movement.
At the new premises we unload in line with your floor plans and labels. Desks, chairs and storage are placed in the correct rooms; boxes are stacked sensibly for easy access. We can reassemble standard flat-pack and modular office furniture where agreed in advance, helping you get staff working again as quickly as possible.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing. Our office removals are usually costed in one of two ways:
Your quote will explain what is included: vehicles, crew size, standard equipment, basic dismantling/reassembly and travel. Additional services such as out-of-hours working, packing, storage or extra labour are itemised. There are no hidden charges; any potential additional costs, such as difficult access or parking suspensions, are discussed in advance.
Office relocations are more complex than simply hiring a van and asking staff to help. Professional office removals offer clear advantages:
A casual man-and-van may be fine for a few boxes, but for critical business equipment, confidential files and time-sensitive moves, a structured, professional removals service is far more reliable.
Man and Van Putney operates to recognised industry standards. Our service includes:
We carry out risk assessments where appropriate and follow safe lifting and handling procedures. Full policy details and limits are available on request.
Your office contents and premises are treated with care from start to finish. We use padded blankets, furniture covers and floor protection where needed, and secure loads properly in our vehicles. We also aim to work sustainably by:
Where you wish to dispose of unwanted furniture, we can arrange collections to licenced recycling or reuse centres, helping you clear space without unnecessary waste.
Growing businesses often outgrow their first offices. We regularly help companies move from serviced offices or co-working spaces into larger leased premises, planning moves outside normal hours to avoid interrupting trading.
Not every project involves a change of address. We can assist with internal moves between floors or wings, reconfiguring departments, meeting rooms and storage layouts within the same building.
Sometimes lease issues, maintenance problems or sudden growth create urgent move requirements. Where our schedule allows, we can offer same-day or next-day office removals in Putney, focusing on critical equipment and workstations first so you can operate while the rest of the move is completed.
The cost of an office move depends on the size of your premises, the volume of furniture and equipment, access at both ends, and whether you need packing or out-of-hours work. Smaller office moves in Putney may be charged on an hourly rate, while larger relocations are usually quoted as a fixed price following a survey. To give you an accurate figure, we assess your specific requirements and provide a clear written quotation outlining everything included, so you can budget with confidence.
Where our schedule allows, we can support same-day or short-notice office removals in Putney. The more flexibility you have on timing and scope, the easier it is for us to accommodate an urgent move. In these situations we focus on critical items first – such as IT equipment, desks and essential files – so your team can continue working while we complete the remaining relocation. Contact us as soon as you know you need to move, and we will advise on what is realistically achievable.
Yes. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being transported in our vehicles, and we also hold public liability insurance for work on your premises and in shared areas. It is important to understand that, as with any policy, there are limits and exclusions, particularly for very high-value or unusual items. We will explain these details on request and can advise you if any specialist cover would be sensible for specific equipment or sensitive materials.
Our standard office removals service covers loading, transport and unloading of your office furniture, equipment and boxed contents, along with basic dismantling and reassembly of standard items agreed in advance. We provide all the necessary moving equipment, such as trolleys and blankets, and our trained team handles everything safely. Optional extras include packing services, crates or boxes supplied in advance, out-of-hours moves, storage and furniture disposal. Your quotation will clearly list what is and is not included for your particular move.
A basic man-and-van service typically offers transport and loading only, with limited planning, equipment or insurance tailored to offices. A professional office removal service, like ours, includes a structured survey, move planning, protection for your premises, appropriate insurance and experienced crews used to handling IT and working in commercial buildings. We coordinate with building management, follow health & safety procedures, and can work out of hours when required. This reduces risk, downtime and disruption compared with an informal or purely budget-focused option.
For best availability and planning time, we recommend booking your office removals at least two to four weeks in advance, especially if you require end-of-month dates or weekend work. Larger or more complex moves benefit from even earlier planning so we can arrange surveys, crate deliveries and building access. That said, we understand that not every move comes with long notice, and we will always try to accommodate shorter timeframes where our schedule allows. The sooner you get in touch, the more options we can offer.
At Man and Van Putney, our man with a van Putney service is a flexible, professional option for smaller moves, single items and local transport across Putney and the surrounding areas. You get an experienced local driver-loader, a well-maintained van, and the backing of a fully insured, established removals company – without paying for a full-scale removals crew when you do not need it.
Our man with a van service is designed to bridge the gap between hiring a full removals team and doing it all yourself. You get a dedicated, trained mover who will help with lifting, loading, securing and transporting your belongings safely.
Every job includes loading, safe transport, and unloading at the other end. We can also add packing and materials if requested.
Working daily in SW15, we know the streets, parking restrictions and building quirks of Putney inside out. From riverside apartments and mansion blocks off the Embankment to terraced houses near Putney High Street and larger homes off Upper Richmond Road, we understand the access challenges, lift sizes and loading bays you are likely to face.
This local knowledge means we can plan realistic timings, advise on parking suspensions where needed, and choose the right size of van for narrow streets and tight entrances, helping to keep your move smooth and on schedule.
If you are moving a small property, downsizing, or just needing a few larger items shifted between homes, our service is ideal. We regularly help with clearing attics, garages and storage units, or moving larger pieces during home renovations.
Putney has a high number of rented flats and house shares. We offer efficient move-in and move-out support, timing moves around check-ins, inventories and key collections, and helping ensure you leave your old place clear and ready for inspection.
Landlords use our professional man with a van service to remove old furniture, deliver or swap in new furnishings, and clear properties after tenants leave. We work with letting agents and property managers across Putney on both planned and short-notice jobs.
Local businesses rely on us for light office moves, sample deliveries, event equipment and archive relocations. Our team understands the need to minimise downtime, work around business hours and handle documents and equipment carefully.
For students studying in and around Putney, our service is a cost-effective way to move between halls, shared houses and home. We can combine multiple pick-ups or drop-offs and offer smaller time slots to keep costs sensible.
If you are unsure whether we can move a particular item, just ask. We will either accommodate it safely or advise on a specialist alternative.
Contact us by phone, email or online form with your pick-up and drop-off addresses, date, approximate inventory and any access details. We will talk through your requirements and provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on time, distance and the size of van needed.
For straightforward man with a van jobs, a phone or video survey is usually enough. For more complex moves, we can arrange an onsite visit in Putney. This allows us to check parking, stairs, lifts and larger items so there are no surprises on the day.
You can pack your own belongings, or we can provide professional packing as an additional service. We can supply boxes, tape and wrapping materials in advance. We will advise you on how to pack fragile items, label boxes and prepare appliances for safe transport.
On moving day, your mover arrives at the agreed time, protects items where needed, and loads the van systematically using blankets, straps and trolleys. Everything is secured for transit to minimise movement and potential damage. We then take the most efficient route between properties, keeping you updated if traffic affects timings.
At the destination, we unload items into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it so you are not left dragging heavy items around. You have the chance to check that everything has arrived safely before we leave.
We price our man with a van Putney service mainly on an hourly basis, with a minimum booking period. The rate depends on:
Your quote will clearly state what is included (labour, mileage within an agreed radius, and basic equipment). Any potential extra charges, such as extended waiting time due to key delays or additional drops, are explained upfront so you stay in control of the cost.
Renting a van and doing it yourself can look cheaper on paper, but there are hidden risks and costs: fuel, excess charges, parking tickets, potential damage, and the physical strain of heavy lifting. Casual man-and-van operators may be uninsured or inexperienced.
With Man and Van Putney, you get a professional, fully insured service with trained staff who move people every day. We bring the right equipment, know how to navigate tight stairwells and common access issues, and protect your belongings properly – reducing the risk of damage, injury and stress.
As a responsible removals company, we operate to clear standards designed to protect you and your belongings.
We maintain our vehicles regularly, use suitable securing equipment, and follow sensible loading limits. You are welcome to ask for confirmation of our cover levels or to discuss any high-value items before booking.
We treat every item as if it were our own. Vans are equipped with protective blankets, straps and dollies, and we take extra care with corners, bannisters and doorways to avoid scuffs and scrapes. Fragile items are placed and secured carefully, not stacked in a hurry.
On the environmental side, we aim to minimise unnecessary journeys, combining loads where appropriate and planning efficient routes. We encourage reuse of boxes, offer durable packing materials, and maintain our vehicles to keep emissions as low as reasonably possible for a local removals operation.
Many Putney residents use our man with a van when moving between one- or two-bedroom properties, particularly if they have already decluttered or are moving part-furnished. It is a cost-effective way to move locally without compromising on care.
Smaller offices and local businesses choose us to relocate stock, IT equipment and furniture between premises or into storage. We can work outside standard hours to minimise disruption, and we understand the importance of handling sensitive equipment properly.
Life does not always give much notice. When tenants need to move quickly, landlords require a rapid clearance, or a delivery company has let you down, our man with a van Putney service can often respond on the same day, subject to availability.
Our pricing is mostly hourly, with a minimum booking time. The cost depends on the size of the van, whether you need one or two movers, the distance between addresses and the time of day. Local moves within Putney are usually very cost-effective, especially for smaller loads or single items. We provide a clear quote in advance, outlining what is included and any potential additional charges such as extended waiting time or extra drop-offs, so you know exactly where you stand before committing.
Yes, we often can. Same-day or short-notice bookings are common for our man with a van Putney service, particularly for smaller moves, clearances or urgent deliveries. Availability depends on our schedule and the size of van you need, so the earlier you contact us, the better. If we can help, we will give you a realistic arrival window and cost estimate straight away. If we are already fully booked, we will always be honest and may suggest alternative times or practical options.
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are in our vehicle, and public liability cover for accidental damage to third-party property. As with any insurance, there are limits and exclusions, which we outline in our terms and conditions. For very high-value or particularly fragile items, we recommend you let us know in advance so we can confirm cover levels and, if needed, suggest additional protection or a specialist service to ensure you are fully comfortable.
Our standard service includes a van, a professional driver-mover, loading and unloading of your items, safe transport between addresses, and basic protective equipment such as blankets and securing straps. Within an agreed radius, mileage is built into the price. We can add extra movers, packing services, packing materials or additional drop-off points if required. These options are priced clearly so you can choose what you need and avoid paying for services you do not. We always confirm the agreed inclusions on your booking confirmation.
A man with a van is generally best for smaller moves and lighter loads with fewer complex requirements. You get a smaller team and van, usually on an hourly basis, which keeps costs lower and offers more flexibility. A full removals service involves a larger crew, multiple vehicles if needed, and often comprehensive packing, dismantling and reassembly. For a one-bedroom flat or student move, man with a van is usually ideal. For larger houses or offices, a full removals team is more appropriate and efficient.
For weekend moves and busy times of year, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance to secure your preferred slot. For weekday and off-peak moves, a few days’ notice is often sufficient, and we can sometimes accommodate next-day or same-day requests. If your dates are not fixed, we can pencil in a provisional booking and confirm closer to the time. The sooner you contact us, the more options we can offer on timing and pricing.
Man and Van Putney is a local, experienced removals company providing reliable, well-organised moves across Putney and the surrounding areas. With years of hands-on experience handling everything from small flats to large family homes and busy offices, we combine efficient planning with careful handling to make moving day as smooth as possible.
We know the local streets, parking rules, and building layouts in SW15 inside out, so we can plan your move properly, avoid delays, and protect your belongings from start to finish.
As a full-service removals company, we handle every stage of your move, from initial planning through to placing furniture in your new rooms. Our standard removals service includes:
Whether you need a single man and van removal for a flat or a larger multi-van moving crew for a house or office, we match the vehicle and team size to your move so you only pay for what you actually need.
Working day in, day out across Putney means we understand the local challenges: narrow Victorian roads, controlled parking zones, busy school runs, and flats with tight staircases. We routinely liaise with building managers, arrange parking suspensions where required, and plan routes to avoid congestion.
This local knowledge allows us to keep to realistic timeframes, protect your items during tricky access, and minimise the disruption to your day. If you are moving within Putney, out of the area, or into SW15 from elsewhere, we will advise on timings, loading options, and any specific access issues we spot during the survey.
We regularly help homeowners moving between family houses, upscaling or downsizing. From garden furniture to large wardrobes and American-style fridge freezers, we ensure everything is handled safely, with the right protection and lifting techniques.
Whether you are moving between rented flats or leaving a house share, we offer flexible, cost-effective options. We can work within fixed time slots agreed with landlords or letting agents and help minimise disruption to neighbours in shared buildings.
Landlords use us to clear properties between tenancies, move in new furniture, or relocate items to and from storage. We can collect keys from agents, work to tight turnaround times and provide clear documentation of what has been moved.
From small offices to retail and service spaces, our business removals service focuses on minimising downtime. We can move desks, IT equipment, stock and archives, and we are happy to work outside normal office hours where practical.
Students in and around Putney benefit from a streamlined, budget-friendly service. We regularly move boxes, suitcases, a few pieces of furniture, and bikes between halls, shared houses and storage units at the start and end of term.
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, there are certain items we normally cannot transport:
If you are unsure about a particular item, please ask during your enquiry so we can advise or suggest alternatives.
You contact us with the basic details of your move: addresses, property type, preferred date, and an outline of what needs moving. We ask a few questions about access, parking and any special items, then provide an initial, no-obligation estimate.
For anything beyond a very small move, we carry out a short survey. This can be virtual (video call and photos) or onsite, depending on the job. The survey allows us to confirm volume, assess staircases or lifts, check parking and identify any items needing extra protection. We then issue a clear, written quotation.
You can either pack your own belongings or choose our professional packing service. If we are packing, we arrive with quality boxes, wrap and protective materials, and systematically pack and label your items. If you are packing yourself, we will happily advise on how best to protect fragile and valuable pieces.
On moving day, our trained, uniformed team arrives on time, walks through the plan with you, and begins loading. Floors, bannisters and doors are protected where needed. Items are wrapped, padded and strapped securely in the vehicle. We then transport your belongings directly to the new address using the most efficient route.
At your new property, we unload in an organised way, placing furniture and labelled boxes into the correct rooms as agreed. We reassemble any items we dismantled and make sure everything is stable and positioned safely before we leave. You have the opportunity to walk through and check you are satisfied with the placement.
We believe in clear and honest pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes are based on:
We usually quote a fixed price for the agreed scope, so you know where you stand. If you prefer, for very small or flexible moves we can also offer hourly rates with a minimum booking period. All costs are clearly explained before you commit.
Hiring a professional removals company in Putney offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using a casual, unregulated man-and-van.
For most people, the cost difference is outweighed by the reduced stress, lower risk of damage, and time saved.
We take our responsibilities seriously. Man and Van Putney is fully insured and operates to professional standards at every stage.
We maintain our vehicles regularly, use suitable equipment and materials, and follow a clear complaints procedure should anything go wrong, though issues are very rare.
Your belongings are handled as if they were our own. We use padded covers for furniture, mattress protectors, TV covers, and appropriate wrapping for glass, mirrors and artwork. Items are positioned carefully on the vehicle and secured to avoid movement in transit.
We also take a practical approach to sustainability. Where possible, we reuse strong, good-quality boxes, minimise unnecessary trips, and plan efficient routes. On request, we can collect and reuse your boxes after the move, helping to cut down on waste.
From terraced houses off Putney High Street to riverside apartments, we regularly manage full household moves. We coordinate timings with estate agents, help navigate tight access, and work steadily through the day so you can focus on settling in rather than worrying about logistics.
When moving offices, we understand that downtime costs money. We plan the move carefully, label and group items by department or function, and, where practical, work in the evenings or at weekends to keep disruption to a minimum.
Life does not always run to a neat schedule. If you face a last-minute tenancy change, an unexpected completion date, or an urgent office move, we will do our best to offer same-day or next-day availability, subject to our schedule. Even at short notice, we keep our standards of care and organisation.
The cost of a removal in Putney depends on several factors: the size of your property, the volume of items, access conditions, distance travelled and whether you need packing services. Smaller flat moves may be completed on an hourly rate, while larger house or office moves are usually quoted at a fixed price after a survey. Once we understand your requirements, we provide a clear written quote with all charges explained so you know exactly what to budget for before you book.
We can often accommodate same-day or urgent moves, especially for smaller properties and student or partial moves. Availability will depend on our existing bookings and the size of the job, so the earlier you contact us, the better. If we can help, we will move quickly to gather the essential details, give you an immediate estimate, and confirm times. Even for short-notice moves, we maintain the same organised approach and careful handling of your belongings.
We are fully insured for the work we carry out. This includes goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are in our vehicles, and public liability cover in case of accidental damage to property or third parties during the move. As with all insurance, there are limits and conditions, which we are happy to explain before you book. We also recommend that particularly high-value items are discussed in advance so we can confirm the most appropriate handling and cover.
Our standard removals service includes loading your belongings at the collection address, safe transport, and unloading into the rooms you specify at your new property. We can dismantle and reassemble straightforward furniture items and provide basic protective materials as part of the service. Optional extras include full or partial packing, supply of packing materials, and additional trips to or from storage. All inclusions and any optional add-ons will be detailed clearly in your written quotation.
A professional removals company offers a structured, insured service delivered by trained staff using appropriate vehicles, equipment and materials. We conduct surveys, plan routes, protect your property, and provide written quotes and terms. A basic man-and-van may be cheaper upfront, but often lacks adequate insurance, proper training and clear processes. For anything more than a very small, low-risk move, most customers find that a professional removals service offers far better protection, reliability and overall value.
Ideally, you should book as soon as your moving date is reasonably certain. For busy periods such as the end of the month, Fridays and summer weekends, we recommend confirming your booking at least two to three weeks in advance, especially for larger house or office moves. That said, we understand that completion dates can change at short notice, so we always try to stay flexible. If you need to move sooner, contact us and we will advise on the earliest slot we can offer.
At Man and Van Putney, we provide reliable, well-organised removals throughout Putney and the surrounding areas. As a local, experienced removals team, we handle everything from small flat moves to full family homes and office relocations, always with care, clear communication and proper planning.
Our removals service is designed to make moving day straightforward and predictable. We supply the vehicle, equipment and a trained removals team to safely move your belongings from A to B, protecting both your items and the properties we work in.
We work across Putney and nearby areas, including Putney Heath, Putney Bridge, East Putney and West Putney. Our local knowledge means we choose sensible routes, plan for parking and manage access issues that often catch people out.
Whether you’re moving from a terraced house off Upper Richmond Road or a larger family home near the river, we can manage full household moves, including furniture disassembly and reassembly where required.
Flat and apartment moves in Putney are a big part of what we do. We’re used to stairs, lifts, tight hallways and permit parking. We work carefully to avoid any damage to walls, doors or communal areas, helping you leave your current place in good condition.
We assist landlords with tenant changeover removals, part-moves and clearance of furniture and white goods that are being replaced. We operate efficiently and respectfully in shared buildings and HMOs.
From small offices to local shops, our office and commercial removals keep disruption to a minimum. We can move desks, filing, IT equipment, stock and fixtures, and we’re happy to work outside standard hours by arrangement.
We regularly help students moving to and from Putney, including halls and shared houses. We offer sensible pricing for smaller loads and can group journeys where practical to keep costs down.
Everything is protected with appropriate materials: furniture blankets, webbing, straps, and covers for mattresses and soft furnishings where requested.
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from our removals service:
If you are unsure about a particular item, just ask in advance and we will advise on the best approach.
You contact us by phone or online with your move details: addresses, dates, property type, access information and a rough idea of what needs moving. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote, explaining what is included and any options, such as packing or extra labour.
For larger moves, we carry out a survey – either via video call or an in-person visit in Putney and nearby areas. This allows us to assess volume, access, parking and any special items. A proper survey helps avoid surprises on the day and ensures we allocate the right vehicle and team size.
You can choose to pack yourself or use our packing service. If we pack, we bring quality materials and clearly label boxes by room and content type. We can also dismantle certain furniture where required. If you pack yourself, we’ll advise on best practice so items travel safely.
On moving day, our professional removals team arrives on time, walks through the plan with you and begins loading. We protect floors where necessary, use lifting equipment for heavier items and secure everything in the vehicle to prevent movement in transit. We then take the most efficient, sensible route to your new address.
At the new property, we unload in a structured way, placing items into the rooms you specify. We can reassemble furniture we have dismantled and position larger pieces so you can start settling in straight away. Before leaving, we do a final check with you to ensure nothing has been missed.
We believe in clear, simple pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes are based on:
We’ll explain how your price is calculated and what would affect it, such as last-minute additions or changes to access. For straightforward moves, we may offer a fixed price; for more flexible jobs, we may work on an hourly rate with clear minimums and caps.
Using a professional removals company in Putney offers several advantages over hiring a van and doing it yourself, or relying on a casual, unvetted man-and-van:
By planning and managing the job professionally, we help you avoid common issues such as vehicles that are too small, lack of parking planning, or items being damaged through poor stacking and loading.
We run our removals business in line with recognised industry standards. When you move with Man and Van Putney, you benefit from:
We are happy to discuss insurance limits, exclusions and any particular high-value items in advance, so you are clear about the level of cover in place.
We treat every move as if it were our own belongings being handled. We use clean vehicles, furniture blankets, straps and covers to protect your items and minimise the risk of damage. When moving in and out of properties, we take care with walls, doors, floors and communal areas.
Where possible, we use reusable materials, minimise unnecessary journeys and look to reduce waste. If you have unwanted furniture or items in reasonable condition, we can often help arrange donation or recycling options rather than sending everything straight to landfill.
From one-bedroom flats to larger family homes, we plan your move to fit your completion or handover times. We can coordinate with estate agents, building management and concierges where necessary.
For businesses in Putney, we can relocate offices with minimal downtime. We label and organise items so your staff can get back to work quickly, and we can work early mornings, evenings or weekends to suit your schedule.
Sometimes moves come up quickly – a tenancy ending sooner than expected, or an urgent need to vacate. When our schedule allows, we provide same-day or next-day removals within Putney and nearby areas, always with the same level of care and professionalism.
Pricing depends on the size of your move, access, distance and any extra services you need, such as packing or furniture assembly. Smaller flat moves may be charged on an hourly basis with a minimum booking period, while larger house or office moves are often priced as a fixed quote after a survey. We’ll always explain what is included, how long we expect the job to take and any factors that might change the price. There are no hidden extras, and your quote is provided with no obligation.
We can often help with same-day or short-notice removals in Putney, depending on availability. If you need to move urgently, contact us as early as you can with details of the properties, access and what needs moving. We’ll check our schedule and let you know what is realistically possible, including the size of vehicle and team we can provide. While we can’t guarantee last-minute slots, we do our best to accommodate urgent situations and offer practical alternatives if your preferred time is not available.
Yes, our removals service includes goods in transit insurance for your items while they are being transported, as well as public liability cover for accidental damage to third-party property. As with any insurance, there are limits and exclusions, particularly for unusually high-value items, cash, jewellery or delicate antiques. We encourage you to tell us in advance about any such items so we can advise on cover and handling, and so you can consider any additional specialist insurance if required.
A standard removals service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional team of movers, loading, securing and transporting your belongings, and unloading at your new address into the rooms you specify. We also provide standard protective equipment such as blankets and straps. Optional extras include packing services, packing materials, furniture dismantling and reassembly, and out-of-hours work. We will clearly list what is and isn’t included in your quote, so you know exactly what to expect on moving day.
A casual man-and-van can be suitable for very small, simple jobs, but a professional removals service offers more structure and protection. We carry appropriate insurance, use the right equipment, plan routes and parking, and supply a trained team who understand safe lifting, packing and loading techniques. We also provide written quotes, clear terms and a defined process from survey through to unloading. This reduces the risk of damage, delays or disputes, and is especially important for larger home moves or business relocations.
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking your Putney removals at least two to four weeks in advance, particularly if you’re moving on a Friday or at month-end, when demand is highest. That said, we know plans can change, so we will always try to accommodate shorter notice where our schedule allows. The earlier you contact us with your likely date and basic details, the easier it is for us to reserve a suitable slot and support you if timings shift slightly.
