• Office desks, chairs, meeting tables and reception furniture
• Filing cabinets, pedestals, bookcases and shelving systems
• Desktop computers, monitors, laptops, printers and networking equipment

Items We Cannot or Typically Do Not Move

To keep everyone safe and fully covered by insurance, some items are excluded from our standard service:

• Hazardous materials (fuel, gas bottles, chemicals, paint thinners)
• Illegal items or anything that breaches UK transport regulations
• Large industrial machinery requiring specialist lifting or cranes

If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise clearly during the survey stage and suggest safe alternatives where possible.

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact Man with Van Old Ford by phone or online with your office move details: addresses, dates, rough inventory and any time restrictions. We discuss your needs, ask the right questions, and provide an initial estimate or guide price. Our quotes are transparent, with no hidden extras, so you can budget your Old Ford office move confidently.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most office removals we carry out a virtual or onsite survey. We assess access, stairs or lift use, parking, loading points and any specialist items, such as servers or large meeting tables. The survey ensures we allocate the right size vehicle, number of trained movers, and the correct packing materials, so move day runs smoothly and on time.

3. Packing & Preparation

We offer a full or part packing service according to your needs. Our team uses sturdy crates, cartons, anti-static protection for IT equipment, and furniture blankets. We can provide clearly labelled crates for staff to pack their own desks, or our team can handle the packing end to end. Desks, shelving and some furniture can be dismantled and reassembled at your new Old Ford office as agreed.

4. Loading & Transport

On move day we arrive on time, protect floors and communal areas, and start loading systematically. Items are wrapped, strapped and positioned in the vehicle to reduce movement in transit. Our vans are clean, well maintained and fitted with securing points and protective equipment. We plan routes around Old Ford and across London, considering traffic and access restrictions to keep your schedule on track.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new premises we unload in the agreed order, placing items in the correct rooms, departments or desks. Furniture is reassembled where required, and we position desks, chairs and meeting tables according to your floor plan. We remove our packing materials for reuse or recycling, leaving your new Old Ford office tidy and ready to set up.

Transparent Pricing for Office Removals in Old Ford

We keep pricing straightforward. Costs are typically based on:

• Volume of items and number of workstations
• Access at both addresses (stairs, lifts, distance from parking)
• Number of movers and vehicles required
• Distance travelled and any congestion or parking charges
• Additional services like packing, crate hire or out-of-hours working

We will always provide a clear written quote before you book. For smaller Old Ford office moves, we may work on a fixed price for the job. Larger or phased relocations are usually priced after a detailed survey so you know exactly what is included.

Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY

Moving an office is very different from moving a few boxes with a casual van. A structured, professional office removal offers several advantages:

• Reduced downtime – we plan around your working hours and priorities
• Proper protection for IT equipment and confidential documents
• Trained teams who understand manual handling and building regulations
• Coordinated labelling so everything arrives at the right workstation
• Comprehensive insurance that DIY moves rarely have

A cheap, unregulated man-and-van might appear to save money, but damaged IT, delayed setups and insufficient cover can cost your business far more in the long run.

Insurance and Professional Standards

Man with Van Old Ford operates to clear, reliable standards so you know your business is in safe hands.

• Goods in transit insurance – covering your office items while being moved, within agreed limits
• Public liability cover – to protect you and the building in the unlikely event of an accident
• Trained moving teams – experienced staff who handle IT, furniture and documents correctly

We brief our crews carefully before each Old Ford office removal and keep communication open throughout the move, so you always know what is happening and when.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Your office contents represent years of work and investment, so we treat them accordingly. We use professional-grade blankets, straps, floor protectors and wrapping materials as standard. IT equipment and monitors are carried and loaded with particular attention, and documents are kept contained and labelled to maintain confidentiality.

We also aim to work in a more sustainable way. Reusable crates, blankets and packing materials are used wherever possible, and cardboard is reused or recycled after each move. We plan routes sensibly around Old Ford and London to reduce unnecessary mileage and idling.

Real-World Office Removal Use Cases

• Moving office within Old Ford – shifting a growing team from a small shared space to a larger dedicated office.
• Full office relocation across London – coordinating packing on a Friday, moving over the weekend, and having your team operational on Monday.
• Urgent office moves – helping businesses respond to sudden lease changes or building issues with fast, structured support.
• Hybrid and downsizing moves – reducing office footprints, moving surplus furniture to storage and setting up flexible work areas.

Whatever your situation, we tailor our Old Ford office removals service around your priorities, budget and timescales.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does an office removal in Old Ford cost?

The cost of an office removal in Old Ford depends mainly on the size of your office, access, and how much help you need with packing. Smaller moves, such as a few workstations, can often be completed within a half day, while larger, multi-floor offices may require a full day or more with several movers and vehicles. We always recommend a survey so we can give a clear, itemised quote covering labour, vehicles, packing and any additional services, with no hidden charges.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?

Where availability allows, we do support same-day or short-notice office removals in Old Ford. The more notice you give, the easier it is to plan around building access, parking and any IT requirements. For urgent moves, a detailed inventory and clear decision-maker on site help us work efficiently. Contact us as early as possible with your dates, addresses and priorities, and we will confirm what is realistically achievable while keeping your office property safe and properly protected.

What insurance coverage do you provide?

We provide goods in transit insurance for your office contents while they are being moved, plus public liability cover to protect you, your staff and the building. These policies sit alongside our own working practices: careful packing, secure loading and experienced crews. During your booking we can explain policy limits and any items requiring special arrangements. If your business has specific insurance requirements, we are happy to work with your risk or facilities manager to ensure everything is covered appropriately.

What is included in your office removals service?

Our standard office removals service covers loading, transport and unloading of your furniture, IT equipment, crates and boxed contents between the addresses you provide. We protect items with blankets and wrapping, use trolleys where suitable, and place furniture and boxes into the correct rooms or departments. Optional extras include packing services, crate hire, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, disposal of unwanted items and out-of-hours moves. All agreed services will be listed clearly in your quotation and booking confirmation.

How is your service different from a basic man-and-van?

While we operate vans, our office removals are planned and delivered very differently from an informal man-and-van service. We provide trained staff, structured surveys, written quotes, insurance cover and proper packing materials. We coordinate building access, lifts and loading bays, and we label and place items so your office can function quickly after the move. A casual service may be fine for a few personal items, but for business-critical equipment and documents, a professional, accountable removals company is a safer and more efficient choice.

How far in advance should I book an office removal?

For most Old Ford office removals, booking two to four weeks in advance is ideal, particularly if you need a weekend move or have a fixed lease end date. This allows time for surveys, planning, crate deliveries and coordination with your building management and IT teams. However, we understand that business needs can change quickly, so we will always try to accommodate shorter notice where our schedule allows. The sooner you contact us, the more options we can offer.
