About Us
About Putney Movers – Your Local Removal Experts
Putney Movers is a dedicated local removal company in the Putney area, providing reliable, friendly and efficient moving services for homes and businesses. As a trusted area removal service, we combine professional standards with genuine local knowledge, helping our customers move smoothly in and around Putney and the wider southwest London community.
Our Story and Years in Operation
Putney Movers began as a small family-run removal company serving neighbours along Upper Richmond Road and the streets leading down towards Putney High Street and the Thames. What started as a simple idea – to offer an honest, hard‑working local removal service – has grown into a well-regarded moving company known across Putney, Roehampton, Wandsworth and beyond.
For many years, we have been helping residents relocate from riverside flats along Putney Embankment, family homes near Wandsworth Park, and apartments around Putney Exchange and East Putney. Our experience covers everything from compact studio moves off Putney Bridge Road to larger house removals near Putney Heath and the green spaces of Richmond Park.
As a long-established Putney removal company, we have refined our planning, packing and transport processes over time. This depth of experience means we can anticipate challenges such as tight stairwells in mansion blocks along the Lower Richmond Road or parking restrictions on residential streets off Putney Hill, ensuring your move runs to schedule.
Licensed, Professional and Fully Compliant
Putney Movers operates with full Environment Agency licensing for the handling and carriage of waste materials associated with moves. This includes unwanted furniture, packaging and items for disposal. Our customers can be confident that any waste we remove is managed legally and responsibly, in line with current environmental regulations and best practice.
We also maintain comprehensive insurance and follow strict safety procedures to protect your belongings during every stage of the move. As a professional removal company in the area, compliance is central to how we operate – from safe lifting and loading to secure transport and responsible disposal.
Trained, Friendly and Local Staff
Our team is made up of trained movers who understand both the technical side of removals and the importance of customer care. Every member of staff receives practical training in packing techniques, furniture protection, manual handling and vehicle loading, so that your possessions are treated with care and respect.
Many of our team live in or around Putney itself – from the estates near Roehampton Lane to roads off West Hill. This local knowledge helps us plan the most efficient routes, anticipate traffic hot spots near Putney Bridge and the South Circular, and work sensitively in busy residential streets and conservation areas.
We know that moving can be stressful, so our staff focus on being approachable, punctual and transparent, explaining each step of the process and keeping you informed on move day.
Our Mission as a Putney Removal Company
Our mission is simple: to provide a reliable, value-for-money area removal service that feels personal, professional and rooted in the Putney community. We aim to remove as much stress as possible from your move, whether you are relocating a family home near Putney Common, downsizing from a flat overlooking the river, or shifting an office close to Putney railway station.
We believe a good removal company should offer more than just a van and some boxes. It should provide reassurance, clear communication and a sense of calm on a day that is often busy and emotional. That is why we put planning, respect for your property and attention to detail at the heart of every move.
Eco-Responsibility and Recycling Partnerships
As a removal company operating in an area that values its green spaces – from Wandsworth Park to Putney Heath and the nearby expanses of Richmond Park – we take our environmental responsibilities seriously. Our Environment Agency licensing is one part of this, but our commitment goes further.
We work closely with local borough recycling centres and authorised facilities to ensure furniture, electrical items, metals and recyclable packaging are diverted from landfill wherever possible. When customers ask us to clear unwanted items as part of their move, we separate materials for recycling and reuse, and make use of Wandsworth and surrounding borough waste and recycling services in a compliant way.
We are continually reviewing our vehicle fleet and planning systems to minimise unnecessary mileage, especially on busy routes such as Putney High Street, Upper Richmond Road and the approaches to the A3. We encourage customers to use reusable crates where appropriate and aim to reduce single-use packing materials, helping to keep our local air cleaner and our parks and riverside walks beautiful.
Community Ties and Local Involvement
Putney Movers is more than a business operating in the area; we are part of the community. Over the years we have helped generations of families move within the streets between Putney Bridge and East Putney, relocated students and staff around university halls near Roehampton, and supported local organisations during office and premises moves.
We understand the character of different parts of Putney – from the quiet, tree-lined roads near Putney Heath and the spacious houses off Gwendolen Avenue, to the busy commercial stretches around Putney High Street and the riverside pubs and restaurants along the Embankment. This familiarity helps us plan considerate moves that respect neighbours, manage vehicle access and work within building and estate guidelines.
Whenever possible, we collaborate with other local businesses and charities, supporting community events and offering practical help when moves involve schools, community centres and local projects. Our reputation as a dependable area removal service rests not only on the quality of our work, but also on the relationships we have built across Putney and the surrounding boroughs.
