Who Our Flat Removal Service Is For
Homeowners
If you own a flat or maisonette in Roehampton, we can manage your whole move – from careful packing of valuable furniture and artwork to dismantling and reassembly of beds, wardrobes and large items.
Renters
We help tenants move between rented flats with minimal disruption. We take particular care to avoid damage to walls, floors and communal areas, helping you leave the property in good condition for your check-out inspection.
Landlords
Landlords in Roehampton use us for end-of-tenancy clearances, part-moves and furniture swaps between properties. We can remove old items, move in new furniture sets and work to tight turnaround times between tenants.
Businesses
Many small businesses operate from flats or mixed-use buildings. We offer office and studio moves from apartments, including IT equipment, stock, files and furniture, all packed securely and labelled for easy setup at the new address.
Students
Roehampton students often move between halls, flat shares and private rentals. Our student removals are cost-effective and flexible, ideal for smaller loads, term-time moves and end-of-year relocations.

Our Step-by-Step Flat Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with the details of your move – current address, new address, flat level, lift access and an outline of what needs to be moved. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on your inventory, access and any additional services, such as packing or dismantling.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger flats or more complex access, we arrange a survey. This can be done via video call or in person in Roehampton. We assess parking, stairways, lift sizes and any restrictions, then fine-tune our plan so we bring the right team, vehicle and equipment on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
Depending on your needs, you can choose:
- Full packing service – we pack everything safely using quality materials.
- Part packing – we pack fragile or bulky items; you pack the rest.
- Self packing – you pack; we supply materials if required.
We label boxes clearly, protect furniture with blankets and covers, and dismantle agreed items ready for safe transport.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our professional team arrives on time, introduces themselves and walks through the property with you. We protect communal areas as needed, load systematically and secure everything in the vehicle. Your belongings are transported directly to your new home, unless we have agreed short-term storage.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the new address, we unload carefully, placing furniture and boxes into the correct rooms as directed. We reassemble agreed items, position large pieces where you want them and remove used packing materials where possible, leaving your flat safe and tidy.
Transparent Flat Removals Pricing in Roehampton
We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden extras. Flat removals are usually priced based on:
- Volume of goods and size of vehicle required
- Number of movers needed and time expected
- Access conditions – stairs, lifts, walking distances, parking
- Distance between properties
- Additional services such as packing, dismantling or storage
You receive a written quote outlining what is included. Any potential extra costs (for example, congestion or parking charges) are explained in advance. We offer competitive rates for smaller student and single-room moves, as well as fixed-price options for standard one- and two-bedroom flats.
Why Choose Professional Flat Removals Over DIY
Moving yourself or using a casual man-and-van may seem cheaper, but it can quickly become stressful and risky. Professional flat removals from Roehampton Man and Van provide:
- Trained teams who know how to move bulky furniture through tight stairwells without damage
- Proper equipment – trolleys, blankets, straps and tools for dismantling
- Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover for peace of mind
- Reliable timings, coordinated access and informed planning
- Reduced risk of injury to you or damage to the property
In many cases, once you factor in van hire, fuel, materials, time off work and potential damage, a professional removal can represent far better value.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We operate to professional standards expected of a reputable removals company in Roehampton.
- Goods in transit insurance – your belongings are covered while in our care and on our vehicles, subject to terms and conditions.
- Public liability insurance – protection against accidental damage to buildings or third-party property.
- Trained moving teams – our staff are experienced, briefed on each job and trained in safe handling and lifting.
We are happy to provide evidence of cover on request and to explain how our insurance applies to your specific move.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your belongings as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped, mattresses are covered and fragile items are packed with care. We take extra time where needed to protect walls, doors and floors, especially in narrow Roehampton stairwells and shared corridors.
We also work to reduce waste and environmental impact where possible by:
- Reusing sturdy cartons and protective materials when safe and appropriate
- Offering crate hire as an alternative to single-use boxes
- Planning efficient routes to cut down on unnecessary mileage
- Recycling packing materials at the end of moves where facilities allow
*Sustainability is an ongoing effort for us, and we are always looking for ways to improve.*

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do flat removals in Roehampton cost?
Costs vary depending on the size of your flat, the volume of items, access and the distance between addresses. As a rough guide, a small studio or one-bedroom flat is usually cheaper than a larger two- or three-bedroom property, and straightforward lift access is quicker than multiple flights of stairs. We provide a tailored quote once we know your details, and this will clearly list what is included. There are no hidden extras; any potential additional charges, such as parking fees, are explained in advance.
Can you handle same-day or urgent flat removals?
We can often accommodate same-day or short-notice moves in Roehampton, especially for smaller flats and student moves, depending on our schedule. If you need an urgent move, contact us as early as possible with your addresses, access information and a brief inventory. We will check availability, give you an honest answer and, if we can help, plan a realistic timetable. Even at short notice, we still work methodically to protect your belongings and the property, rather than rushing and risking damage.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We carry goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are being moved on our vehicles, as well as public liability insurance for accidental damage to buildings or third-party property. Insurance operates within specific terms and conditions, which we are happy to explain before you book. We recommend you highlight any particularly high-value or fragile items in advance so we can pack and handle them appropriately and confirm how they are covered under our policy.
What is included in your flat removals service?
Our standard flat removals service includes the provision of a suitable vehicle, a professional removals team, loading, transport and unloading into your new home. We protect furniture and large items, move everything to the rooms you specify and can dismantle and reassemble basic items agreed in advance. Optional extras include full or part packing, supply of packing materials, furniture dismantling beyond standard items and short-term storage. Your quote will set out exactly what is included so you know what to expect on moving day.
How is a professional removal different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van usually provides transport and labour only, often without formal training, detailed planning or comprehensive insurance. Our professional flat removals service includes a structured survey, clear quotation, experienced and trained movers, appropriate equipment and proper insurance cover. We understand building rules, parking issues and how to protect both your belongings and the property. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and disputes, and generally leads to a calmer, more efficient moving day.
How far in advance should I book my flat move?
For the best choice of dates, especially at busy times like month-end and weekends, we recommend booking at least two to three weeks in advance. However, we understand that flat moves in Roehampton can sometimes be confirmed late due to contracts, tenancy agreements or chains. If your dates are not fixed, we can still provide an estimate and hold provisional slots where possible. Even if your move is very short notice, it is still worth contacting us, as we may have availability or cancellations we can offer.
