Office Removals
Office Removals Ealing – Professional Business Relocation by Ealing Movers
At Ealing Movers, we provide organised, low-disruption office removals for companies of all sizes across Ealing and West London. With years of hands-on experience relocating busy offices, we understand that every hour of downtime affects your bottom line. Our role is simple: plan thoroughly, move efficiently, protect your assets, and get your team working again as quickly as possible.
Specialist Office Removals in Ealing
Office moves are very different from domestic removals. You’re dealing with live IT systems, confidential files, shared workspaces and often multiple stakeholders. Our dedicated office relocation team is trained to manage these complexities calmly and professionally.
We regularly move:
- Small offices and start-up spaces
- Multi-floor corporate offices
- Co-working and serviced offices
- Retail back-office and stock rooms
- Workshops and light commercial spaces
Every move is planned around your operational needs, whether that means evenings, weekends or phased moving so different teams relocate on different days.
Local Expertise: Office Moves Across Ealing and West London
Because we’re based in Ealing, we know the local area, buildings and access points extremely well. From Victorian terraces converted to offices, to modern business centres, to council buildings, we’ve worked in most types of commercial property.
Local knowledge matters. We plan for:
- Parking restrictions and permits around Ealing Broadway, South Ealing, Northfields and surrounding areas
- Lift capacities and loading bays in larger office blocks
- Time-restricted access and concierge/security procedures
- Neighbouring businesses that may be affected by your move
This allows us to give realistic timings, choose suitable vehicles and ensure a smooth move day without surprises.

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Initial Quote
Contact us by phone or online and tell us about your current office, new premises and preferred move dates. We’ll ask key questions about access, number of workstations, and IT equipment. From this information we provide an initial, no-obligation estimate so you can budget accurately and seek internal approvals.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For office removals, we always recommend a detailed survey. This can be virtual (video call) or onsite, depending on the size and complexity of your move. We measure furniture, assess access routes, check parking, note any dismantling required and discuss timings. The survey allows us to give a clear, written quotation with no hidden extras.
3. Packing & Preparation
We offer flexible packing services tailored to your business. Options include:
- Full packing – Our team packs everything, including files, equipment and kitchen contents.
- Part packing – We pack breakables and IT; your staff pack personal items and non-essentials.
- Crate hire – We supply labelled crates for staff to pack in advance.
We provide labels and a clear numbering system so everything arrives at the correct workstation or department in the new office.
4. Loading & Transport
On move day, our professional team arrives at the agreed time, usually outside your normal working hours to minimise disruption. We protect floors, walls and lifts, dismantle agreed items, and load systematically. Vehicles are equipped with blankets, straps, trolleys and ramps to keep everything secure in transit. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while on the move.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new office, we unload and place items according to your floor plan, reassemble furniture and position desks and chairs so your team can sit down and start work. We’ll remove used packing materials and can return to collect crates once you’ve finished unpacking. Our aim is a calm, orderly move rather than a rush of boxes piled in the middle of the room.
Transparent Office Removals Pricing
We know businesses need clarity on costs. Our quotes explain exactly what is included, with no hidden charges. Pricing is based on:
- Volume and type of items
- Distance between locations
- Level of packing service required
- Access conditions (stairs, lifts, long carries)
- Out-of-hours or weekend working, if requested
You’ll receive a written quotation detailing labour, vehicles, packing materials and any optional extras. If your scope changes before move day, we’ll update the quote so you always know where you stand.
Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY or Man-and-Van
It can be tempting to save money by asking staff to help or hiring a casual man-and-van. In practice, this often leads to longer downtime, damaged equipment and health and safety risks.
By choosing a trained, fully insured company like Ealing Movers, you benefit from:
- Experienced planning to minimise disruption and avoid delays
- Correct handling of heavy or awkward items, reducing injury risk
- Protective packing for IT equipment and furniture
- Proper insurance cover if something goes wrong
- Professional conduct in shared buildings and around your clients
Your staff can remain focused on their actual jobs, while we handle the physical move efficiently.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your office contents are the backbone of your business, from expensive IT to confidential information. We take that responsibility seriously.
- Goods in transit insurance – Covers your items while they are being transported in our vehicles.
- Public liability cover – Protects against accidental damage to buildings or third-party property.
- Trained moving teams – Our staff receive ongoing training in manual handling, packing techniques and customer care.
We follow recognised industry best practice, maintain clean, well-equipped vehicles and keep clear communication before, during and after your move.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We combine careful handling with an eye on sustainability. During your office move we use:
- Reusable plastic crates instead of single-use cardboard wherever possible
- Recycled and recyclable packing materials
- Protective covers for screens, chairs and desks to reduce damage and waste
We can also support you with ethical disposal or recycling of unwanted office furniture and equipment, helping you clear out responsibly rather than sending usable items straight to landfill.
Real-World Office Removals Use Cases
Moving Offices Within Ealing
Many clients are simply moving between buildings in Ealing, often to gain more space or reduce costs. We can complete internal or short-distance relocations in stages, keeping part of your team operational while others move.
Relocating to or from Central London
If you’re moving into or out of central London, careful timing and access coordination are vital. We work around building management rules, loading bay bookings and congestion zones to keep the move running smoothly.
Urgent and Short-Notice Moves
Sometimes leases fall through, office space must be vacated quickly, or unexpected circumstances arise. Where capacity allows, we offer urgent office removals with short lead times, focusing on essential items first so you can keep trading.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do office removals in Ealing cost?
Costs vary depending on the size of your office, the volume of furniture and equipment, distance between locations, and the level of packing required. A small local office move may be completed in a day, while larger, multi-floor moves are priced over several days with more crew and vehicles. After a survey, we provide a fixed-price quotation that clearly sets out what is included, so you can budget accurately and gain any internal approvals needed before proceeding.
Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?
Where our schedule allows, we can support same-day or urgent relocations. This is more achievable for smaller offices or partial moves than for large multi-department relocations. Contact us as soon as you know you need to move, and we’ll be honest about what can be done safely within your timeframe. We may suggest a phased approach, prioritising key workstations, IT and essential files first, with less critical areas moved once you are operational in the new location.
Are my office contents insured during the move?
Yes. Your items are protected by our goods in transit insurance while being transported in our vehicles, and by our public liability cover for accidental damage to buildings or third-party property. Insurance is there for peace of mind and to back up our careful working practices. We’ll explain the main terms and limits in your quotation. For exceptionally high-value or specialist items, we may recommend additional cover or specific handling procedures agreed with you in advance.
What exactly is included in your office removals service?
Our standard service includes loading, transport and unloading of your office furniture, equipment and boxed contents between the agreed addresses. We can also provide packing materials, crate hire, full or part packing services, dismantling and reassembly of desks and furniture, and placement according to your floor plan. Optional extras such as recycling of unwanted furniture or out-of-hours working can be added. Your written quotation will list everything included so there is no ambiguity about what we will do on move day.
How is a professional office removal different from a man-and-van service?
A casual man-and-van usually offers basic transport only, often without detailed planning, packing support or insurance suited to business moves. A professional office removal service, like Ealing Movers, provides structured planning, trained crews, protective materials, and formal insurance cover. We coordinate with building management, IT teams and your staff, and we work to minimise downtime. This reduces disruption, protects expensive equipment and avoids the hidden costs that come from delays, damage or health and safety incidents.
How far in advance should I book an office move?
For most office moves, we recommend contacting us 4–8 weeks before your preferred move date, especially if you need weekend or end-of-month slots, which are popular. This gives time for surveys, quotes, internal approvals and staff communication. Larger or phased relocations may benefit from even longer planning. That said, if your timescales are shorter, still get in touch – we’ll always see what we can do and suggest realistic options based on our availability.
