Furniture Removals

Furniture Removals Putney

At Putney Movers, we provide careful, efficient and professional furniture removals across Putney and the surrounding areas. Whether you are moving a full house, a single flat, an office suite or just a few bulky items, our local team handles every piece of furniture with care, planning and respect for your property.

Specialist Furniture Removals in Putney

Our core focus is safe, well-organised furniture removals. We move everything from everyday flat-pack wardrobes through to high-value designer pieces and antique furniture. With years of hands-on experience working in Putney’s terraced streets, mansion blocks and riverside apartments, we know how to navigate tight staircases, limited parking and building access rules without fuss.

Every move is carried out by trained, uniformed staff using purpose-built vehicles and quality protective materials. We plan your move around building restrictions, lift sizes and access times to keep the process smooth and predictable.

Who Our Furniture Removals Service Is For

Homeowners

Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or moving out of Putney, we provide complete home furniture removals, including careful protection of floors, bannisters and door frames. We can dismantle and reassemble larger items such as beds, wardrobes and tables to make access easier.

Renters

For tenants moving between rented properties, we offer flexible furniture removals tailored to flats and shared houses. We are used to working around narrow hallways, top-floor walk-ups and time-limited access slots agreed with landlords or agents.

Landlords

Landlords in Putney use us to clear, remove or rearrange furniture between lets. We can remove unwanted or damaged items, move stored pieces back into a property, or relocate furniture between several addresses, all with clear documentation and punctual arrival times.

Businesses

Offices, clinics, shops and studios rely on our office furniture removals for desks, chairs, filing cabinets, shelving, reception furniture and more. We work out-of-hours where needed to minimise disruption and follow building management requirements for loading bays and lift usage.

Students

Students in Putney and nearby areas can book cost-effective small moves for beds, desks, wardrobes and personal furniture between halls, shared houses and storage. We offer part-load options and clear pricing so you can plan within a budget.

Our Step-by-Step Furniture Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with your move details: addresses, access notes, list of key furniture items and preferred dates. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining the services we recommend, such as packing, dismantling or storage options. All pricing is explained so you understand exactly what is included.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

For anything more than a very small move, we carry out a brief survey. This may be a video call or an onsite visit in Putney, depending on your preference and property size. We measure larger items, check staircases, lifts and parking, and discuss any fragile or unusual pieces so that move day runs smoothly.

3. Packing & Preparation

On the agreed date, our team arrives on time with all required materials. Depending on your booking, we can provide full packing, part packing (for fragile items) or simply protect the furniture you have already prepared. We use blankets, export wrap, mattress covers and corner protectors. Where needed, we dismantle beds, wardrobes and tables for safer transport.

4. Loading & Transport

Your furniture is loaded systematically, item by item, with protective coverings used throughout. We secure loads carefully inside our vehicles to prevent movement in transit. Our drivers know the Putney area well, selecting sensible routes and planning around traffic, bridge restrictions and narrow residential roads.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new property, we unload, place and, where arranged, reassemble furniture in the rooms you specify. We protect floors and walls, check off items against our inventory and make final adjustments to furniture placement so you are happy with the layout before we leave.

Transparent Furniture Removals Pricing

We believe in straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Our furniture removals in Putney are usually priced based on:

• Volume and type of furniture to be moved
• Access at both addresses (floors, lifts, parking)
• Distance travelled
• Level of service (packing, dismantling, reassembly, disposal)
• Day and time (standard weekday, weekend or bank holiday)

We offer both fixed-price quotes for defined moves and hourly rate options for smaller or more flexible jobs. Your quote will clearly outline what is covered, any optional extras and how long the move is expected to take.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Man-and-Van

Moving furniture yourself or using a casual man-and-van can seem cheaper, but often leads to damage, delays and stress. Our professional service offers:

• Trained moving teams who know how to lift safely and protect your property
• Suitable vehicles with proper securing points and protective equipment
• Planned access, parking and route management
• Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
• Written confirmation of what we will do and when

With us, you reduce the risk of personal injury, broken furniture, scratched floors and last-minute cancellations. You gain predictable timing and a calm, organised move.

Insurance and Professional Standards

As a responsible removals company, we operate to professional standards at every stage:

• Goods in transit insurance to protect your furniture while it is being moved
• Public liability cover for work carried out in your property and communal areas
• Trained staff following safe lifting techniques and handling procedures
• Regularly maintained, sign-written vehicles suitable for removals work
• Clear paperwork and terms so you know where you stand

Details of our cover can be provided with your quote, and we encourage you to ask any questions about limits and exclusions so you are fully comfortable.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every property and piece of furniture as if it were our own. That means careful planning, protective materials and respectful conduct in shared spaces. We use reusable blankets and durable, recyclable packing materials wherever possible to limit waste. When we remove unwanted furniture, we prioritise ethical disposal and, where appropriate, donation or recycling rather than sending everything straight to landfill.

Our approach is to move your furniture safely while minimising the impact on your home, neighbours and the environment.

Real-World Furniture Removals Use Cases

Moving House Within or From Putney

Many of our clients are families and individuals moving between properties in Putney, or relocating elsewhere in London and beyond. We manage full-house furniture removals, coordinating with your completion time, keys and building access to keep your moving day as straightforward as possible.

Office and Commercial Relocations

We regularly handle small to medium office moves, from a few rooms to entire floors. Desks, chairs, storage units and meeting furniture are dismantled where needed and reassembled at your new premises, with labelling systems used to ensure everything ends up in the right space.

Urgent or Short-Notice Moves

Life does not always give much warning. When you need furniture removals at short notice, we do our best to find a suitable slot, particularly for local moves within Putney. While availability depends on our schedule, we are experienced in organising efficient, last-minute moves without cutting corners on care or safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do furniture removals in Putney cost?

Costs depend on the volume and type of furniture, access at each property, distance and the level of service you require. Small local moves may be priced on an hourly rate, while full-home or office moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. Additional services such as packing, dismantling and reassembly will affect the overall cost. We provide a clear, written quote after discussing your needs or carrying out a survey, so you know exactly what you are paying for before you commit.

Can you provide same-day or urgent furniture removals?

Where our schedule allows, we can often accommodate urgent or same-day furniture removals within Putney and nearby areas. Availability is naturally more limited at peak times such as weekends and month-end, but we will always be honest about what is realistically achievable. If we can help, we will organise a streamlined service, focusing on the essential items first. Contact us as early as possible with your details so we can check vehicle and crew availability and provide an accurate estimate.

Are my belongings insured during the move?

Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance for your furniture while it is being moved in our vehicles, as well as public liability cover for work undertaken in your property and communal areas. Insurance is not a substitute for care, so our teams still handle every item cautiously, using appropriate protection. We are happy to explain our policy limits, excesses and any exclusions in plain language, and can advise you when it may be sensible to notify your own home or business insurer about your upcoming move.

What is included in your furniture removals service?

As standard, our service includes the provision of a vehicle, a trained removals team, loading, transport and unloading of your furniture, along with basic protective materials such as blankets and ties. At your request, we can add services such as packing, dismantling and reassembling furniture, supply of boxes and packing materials, disposal of unwanted items and temporary storage. Your written quote will list exactly what is included so there is no confusion on the day. If you need something specific, simply mention it during the enquiry.

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

A casual man-and-van may be suitable for very small, simple jobs, but usually lacks the structure and protection offered by a removals company. We provide trained crews, suitable vehicles, proper protective equipment, written terms and full insurance cover. We also plan access, timing and routes in advance, and can handle dismantling, reassembly and more complex moves. In practice, this means less risk of damage, more predictable timings and a smoother experience overall, especially for larger homes, valuable items or properties with restricted access.

How far in advance should I book furniture removals?

We recommend booking as early as you can, particularly if you are moving at the end of the month, during school holidays or on a Friday. For most moves, securing your date two to four weeks ahead is ideal. That said, we understand that completion dates and tenancy agreements can change, so we will work with you where possible. If your move is last-minute, it is still worth contacting us, as we may have gaps or cancellations that can be used for urgent bookings.
