House Removals
House Removals in Tottenham by Man and Van Tottenham
Moving home in Tottenham doesn’t need to be stressful. At Man and Van Tottenham, we provide a carefully planned, fully managed house removals service designed around how you live, what you own, and where you’re going. Every move is handled by a trained, local team who treat your belongings and your property with respect.
What Our House Removals Service Includes
Our removals service covers everything you need to move home in or around Tottenham safely and efficiently:
- Full house removals for all property sizes, from studios to large family homes
- Flat and apartment moves, including lifts, stairs, and restricted access
- Part-load and single-room moves for smaller requirements
- Packing and unpacking options, from fragile-only to full packing
- Furniture disassembly and reassembly where required

All moves are carried out by our own professional, uniformed teams, with suitable vehicles, equipment and goods in transit insurance for peace of mind.
Local Tottenham Removals Expertise
Working in Tottenham every day means we know the area and its challenges well: bus lanes, school-run times, controlled parking zones, and tight access roads. We factor all this into your move plan so you don’t have to worry about timing or parking surprises.
We regularly move customers in and around:
- Tottenham Hale and the surrounding new developments
- Seven Sisters and South Tottenham
- Bruce Grove, West Green and nearby residential streets
- Northumberland Park and estates across N15 and N17
Because we’re local, we can also react quickly to urgent moves and last‑minute changes where possible.

Homeowners
Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or moving out of London, we provide a structured, carefully planned move to protect higher-value items, large furniture, and long-term possessions.
Renters
We help tenants move between rented properties with minimum fuss, paying close attention to protecting walls, floors and common areas so you don’t risk deposit deductions for damage.
Landlords
For landlords, we offer fast turnaround removals when tenancies end, including clearing furniture you supply and repositioning items between properties.
Businesses
We support small businesses and home offices with office relocation, moving desks, IT equipment, stock and archives with labelled, organised packing.
Students
Students moving in or out of Tottenham benefit from a straightforward, budget-friendly service for smaller loads, shared houses, and term‑time storage moves.
What We Can and Can’t Move
Items Typically Included
- Household furniture: beds, wardrobes, sofas, tables, chairs
- Appliances: washing machines, fridges, freezers (properly defrosted)
- Electronics: TVs, computers, audio equipment
- Personal belongings: clothing, books, ornaments, kitchenware
- Garden items: outdoor furniture, tools, barbecues (clean and empty)
- Boxes of all kinds, including fragile and heavy items
Items Usually Excluded or By Special Arrangement
- Hazardous materials (fuel, paint, chemicals, gas cylinders)
- Illegal or stolen goods
- Live animals and pets
- Very high-value items (art, jewellery, collections) without prior agreement
- Pianos, safes or industrial machines unless pre‑agreed and surveyed
- Items fixed to the property without being disconnected or dismantled
If you have unusual, delicate or heavy items, mention them during your enquiry so we can confirm what’s possible and plan the correct equipment and staffing.
Our Step-by-Step House Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Initial Quote
Contact us with your moving dates, addresses, and a brief outline of your property and contents. We provide an initial estimate based on the information you share, along with advice on timings and any parking or access considerations in Tottenham.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a survey. This can be done by video call, photos, inventory list, or an onsite visit. The survey lets us understand volumes, access, special items and any dismantling required, so we can allocate the right vehicle, trained crew and time.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can choose from:
- Full packing service – we supply materials and pack everything
- Fragile-only packing – we focus on breakables like glass, crockery, and artwork
- Self-packing – you pack, and we provide guidance and, if required, packing materials
On moving day, we protect floors, doors and banisters as needed and plan the loading order so essentials are accessible first at your new home.
4. Loading & Transport
Our team carefully loads your items using trolleys, blankets, straps and other professional equipment. Everything is secured in the vehicle to minimise movement in transit. Your belongings are covered by goods in transit insurance while they’re with us. We choose routes and times that work best for Tottenham traffic and access at both ends.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload room by room, placing items where you want them. We reassemble any furniture we dismantled and position major furniture and appliances so you can start settling in straight away. Before we leave, we do a final walk‑through with you to check you’re happy with the placement.
Transparent Pricing – How We Charge
We believe clear pricing is essential for a smooth move. Our quotes are based on a combination of:
- Volume of items and size of property
- Distance between addresses
- Access factors (stairs, lifts, long carries, parking restrictions)
- Services required (packing, dismantling, storage, materials)
- Day and time (weekdays, evenings, weekends)
For smaller moves, we may use a competitive hourly rate with a minimum booking period. For full house removals, we typically provide a fixed price so you know the cost in advance. There are no hidden extras: any potential additional charges (for example, congestion or parking fees) are explained clearly before you book.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van?
Moving yourself or hiring an unregulated van might seem cheaper, but it often leads to damaged items, delays and last-minute stress. As a professional removals company:
- We use the right equipment and techniques to protect furniture and property
- We provide fully insured cover for your goods while in our care
- Our trained teams know how to handle heavy, awkward and fragile items safely
- We plan timings, parking and access to avoid costly overruns
- We offer a structured process, clear documentation and reliable arrival times
In most cases, a well-organised professional move saves time, reduces risk, and often ends up being better value once vehicle hire, fuel, materials and potential damage are taken into account.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Your belongings are important, both financially and emotionally. That’s why we operate with:
- Goods in transit insurance to protect items while they’re being moved
- Public liability cover in case of accidental damage to property
- Trained, experienced movers who follow safe handling procedures
We handle your possessions as if they were our own, using appropriate wrapping and protection for delicate or high‑risk items. If you have especially valuable belongings, let us know so we can discuss any additional measures needed.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Looking after your possessions also means looking after the environment we all share. Our approach includes:
- Reusing strong cartons and protective materials where safe and hygienic
- Offering hire of reusable crates as an alternative to single‑use boxes (where available)
- Planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage
- Encouraging customers to recycle or donate unwanted items rather than binning them
On the day, we use clean blankets, floor protection and careful handling techniques to minimise scuffs, scratches or other damage in both your old and new homes.
Real-World Use Cases
Moving House within Tottenham
Many of our customers move just a few streets away. We plan these short-distance moves to minimise downtime, often completing them in a single day so you sleep in your new home that night.
Office and Home Office Relocation
For small offices and home-based businesses, we label and plan moves so that essential equipment and documents are accessible first, helping you get back to work quickly.
Urgent and Same-Week Moves
Sometimes moves come up quickly: landlord changes, sale chains, or sudden changes in circumstances. Where our schedule allows, we provide same-day or short-notice removals in Tottenham, still following a structured but accelerated version of our usual process.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a house removal in Tottenham cost?
The cost of a house removal in Tottenham varies depending on the size of your property, the volume of items, distance between addresses, and any additional services such as packing or dismantling. Smaller flat moves may be charged at an hourly rate, while full house moves are usually priced as a fixed quote after a survey. This ensures the price reflects the actual work involved. Contact us with basic details about your move and we’ll provide an honest estimate, then refine it after a more detailed assessment if needed.
Can you do same-day or urgent removals?
We can often help with same-day or urgent removals in Tottenham, particularly for smaller moves or part-loads. Availability depends on our existing bookings and the size and complexity of your move. If you need to move at short notice, contact us as early as possible with your addresses, rough inventory and desired time. We’ll confirm what’s realistic, discuss any limitations, and prioritise essential items if a full move in one go isn’t practical. We always aim to provide a safe, properly staffed service, even at short notice.
What insurance cover do you provide?
Your belongings are covered by goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicle and care, and we also hold public liability cover for accidental damage to property. This is in addition to the care taken by our trained team in wrapping, lifting and securing items. Insurance has reasonable limits and conditions, so we always recommend you tell us about especially valuable or unusual items in advance. We can then confirm cover, advise on extra protection if required, and ensure appropriate handling on the day.
What is included in your removals service?
Our standard removals service includes the vehicle, a suitable number of professional movers, protective blankets and equipment, loading at your old property, safe transport, and unloading and placement at your new address. We can also provide packing materials, full or partial packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and help with positioning heavy items. Parking arrangements, congestion or toll charges are discussed with you beforehand. We don’t leave you with everything piled in the hallway: our team works with you to place key furniture and boxes in the correct rooms.
How is a professional removal different from a basic man-and-van?
A basic man-and-van service typically provides a driver and vehicle, with limited help and no guarantee of training or insurance. Our professional removals service includes a planned process, trained staff, goods in transit insurance, public liability cover, and the correct equipment for safe lifting and protection. We carry out surveys for larger moves, advise on packing and access, and provide written confirmation of arrangements. In practice, this means fewer breakages, less physical strain for you, and a smoother, more predictable moving day.
How far in advance should I book my removal?
Ideally, you should book your Tottenham house removal 2–4 weeks in advance, especially if you’re moving on a weekend or at the end of the month, when demand is highest. This gives us time to carry out a survey, arrange packing if required, and help you plan parking and access. However, we understand that completion dates can change, so we try to remain flexible. If your move is sooner, still get in touch; we’ll advise on current availability and do our best to fit you in safely and sensibly.
Man with Van

Local Expertise in Tottenham
Working in Tottenham day in, day out means we understand local streets, parking restrictions and access challenges.

This local knowledge helps us plan realistic timings, choose the right vehicle, and avoid unnecessary delays.
We regularly serve:
- Tottenham, Tottenham Hale, Seven Sisters and Bruce Grove
- Nearby areas such as Edmonton, Wood Green, Harringay and Stamford Hill
- Moves from Tottenham to anywhere in Greater London and beyond
Who Our Man with Van Service Is For
Homeowners
If you’re moving between houses and don’t quite need a large removals crew, our man with van is ideal for smaller properties, part moves, or moving items to and from storage. We can work alongside your own car or hired van to take care of the bulky, awkward or fragile items.
Renters
Many renters in Tottenham move frequently. We provide flexible, cost-effective moves for studio, one-bed and two-bed flats, including dismantling and reassembling basic furniture on request. We can also plan around tight time slots with letting agents and building management.
Landlords
Landlords use our service for end-of-tenancy clearances, repositioning furniture between properties, and delivering new items. We can work to fixed time windows, handle key collection if agreed in advance, and provide simple documentation for your records.
Businesses
From small offices to local shops, our man with van option suits lighter office relocations, archive moves and trade deliveries. We can move desks, chairs, IT equipment and boxed files with care, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Students
Students moving to or from Tottenham benefit from a straightforward, budget-friendly service. We’re used to halls of residence, shared houses and tight stairwells. We can move boxes, suitcases, a few bits of furniture and study equipment in one organised trip.
What We Move – Included Items
Our vans are equipped with blankets, straps and trolleys, so we can safely move:
- Household furniture – sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs
- White goods – fridges, freezers, washing machines, cookers (disconnected)
- Boxes and bags of personal belongings
- Electronics – TVs, computers, audio equipment
- Office furniture – desks, filing cabinets, office chairs
- Commercial stock and equipment within weight and size limits
What We Don’t Move – Excluded Items
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we cannot move:
- Hazardous materials (gas bottles, fuel, chemicals, paint, solvents)
- Illegal items or contraband
- Unboxed loose small items that may easily be lost or damaged
- Live animals or pets
- Very high-value items such as fine art, jewellery or large sums of cash
- Items that exceed safe lifting limits or will not reasonably fit through standard doors or stairwells
If you are unsure about a particular item, please ask us in advance; we can often suggest safe alternatives.
Our Step-by-Step Moving Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with the basic details: addresses, property types, access information and what needs moving. We discuss your requirements and provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on time, distance and the level of help you need (for example, one or two movers).
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For anything more than a simple single-item move, we recommend a quick survey. This can often be done virtually via photos or video call. For larger jobs in or near Tottenham, we can arrange an onsite visit to assess access, parking and any special handling needs.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or we can supply professional packing materials in advance. On moving day we protect key items with transit blankets and can dismantle basic furniture, such as bed frames, if agreed beforehand. Our aim is to ensure everything is ready for safe loading.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained movers handle all the lifting and loading, using trolleys and straps where needed. Items are carefully arranged in the van to minimise movement during transit. We then transport your belongings directly to the new address, using efficient routes and our local knowledge of Tottenham traffic and parking.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination we unload everything into the rooms you specify. We place furniture where you want it and reassemble any items we dismantled, time permitting. Before we leave, we check you are happy that all agreed items have arrived safely and are in the right place.
Transparent Pricing – How Our Man with Van Costs Work
We believe in simple, transparent pricing. Most man with van jobs are priced either by the hour or as a fixed-price move, depending on your preference and the nature of the job.
- Hourly rates – Suitable for smaller, flexible moves where the scope may change slightly on the day.
- Fixed prices – Ideal when the inventory is clear and access is straightforward; you know the total cost in advance.
Prices are influenced by distance, number of movers required, the size of the vehicle, access conditions and any extra services like packing or furniture dismantling. There are no hidden charges; any potential additional costs, such as congestion or parking charges, are explained upfront.
Why Choose Professional Man with Van Over DIY
Hiring a professional man with van service in Tottenham offers several advantages over borrowing a van or booking a casual advert from the internet:
- Safety – Proper lifting techniques and equipment reduce the risk of injury and damage.
- Reliability – Confirmed bookings, clear communication and arrival windows you can plan around.
- Insurance – Your belongings are covered by goods in transit insurance, which you don’t get with most DIY solutions.
- Experience – We move people in and around Tottenham every day; we know what can go wrong and how to avoid it.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your belongings are important, and we treat them that way. Our service includes:
- Goods in transit insurance for your items while they are in our vehicle
- Public liability cover for any accidental damage to property during the move
- Trained moving teams who understand safe handling, stacking and protection of goods
We operate clean, well-maintained vehicles and keep accurate records for every job. This professional approach provides reassurance that your move is being handled properly from start to finish.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We take care in how we move, and also how we impact the environment:
- Use of reusable blankets, straps and crates where possible
- Encouraging re-use of packing materials for future moves
- Consolidating trips and planning efficient routes to reduce fuel use
- Careful handling to avoid breakages and unnecessary waste
Inside your property, we work carefully around walls, floors and doorways, using protection as needed to reduce the risk of scuffs or damage.
Real-World Use Cases
Moving House in Tottenham
For smaller house or flat moves, our man with van service offers a cost-effective way to move locally. We can complete many moves in a single trip, including furniture and boxes, and coordinate with keys collection and check-in times.
Office and Business Relocations
Local businesses use us to move between offices, reorganise internal layouts or shift stock. We can schedule moves outside your trading hours and handle IT equipment and office furniture with care, keeping downtime to a minimum.
Urgent and Same-Day Moves
Sometimes plans change at short notice. Subject to availability, we can provide same-day or next-day man with van services in Tottenham. Whether a tenancy start date has changed or a delivery has fallen through, we’ll do our best to help you out quickly and efficiently.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a man with van service in Tottenham cost?
Costs depend on distance, how much you’re moving, access at each property and whether you need one or more movers. For smaller jobs, we usually work on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period. Larger moves are often quoted as a fixed price once we understand your requirements. Our quotes are transparent and include any expected additional charges, such as congestion or parking fees. Contact us with a rough inventory and addresses, and we’ll provide a clear, tailored price before you commit.
Can you do same-day or urgent man with van moves?
Yes, we can often accommodate same-day or urgent moves in Tottenham, especially for local jobs or single items. Availability depends on our schedule and vehicle capacity on the day, so the earlier you contact us, the better. If we can help, we’ll confirm a time window and the likely duration, then send a brief booking confirmation. Even for urgent jobs, we still follow our usual standards for protection, loading and handling to keep your belongings safe.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Our man with van service includes goods in transit insurance for items while they are in our vehicle, and public liability cover for property damage that might accidentally occur during the move. This provides a level of protection that casual, unregulated services usually cannot offer. As with any insurance, there are limits and exclusions, so if you have particularly high-value items, tell us in advance so we can advise on the best way to protect them and confirm what is covered.
What exactly is included in your man with van service?
You get a vehicle of suitable size, a professional driver-mover and, if requested, an additional mover. We handle lifting, loading, transport and unloading into the rooms you specify. We provide blankets, straps and basic protection, and can dismantle and reassemble straightforward furniture by prior arrangement. The quote will set out the number of movers, the estimated time or fixed price, and any extra services such as provision of boxes or packing. Fuel, normal mileage and insurance are all included unless stated otherwise.
How is your man with van different from a basic removals service?
A man with van service is typically more flexible and suited to smaller moves, single items or short-distance jobs. Our full removals service involves larger teams, bigger vehicles and often full packing, detailed inventories and more complex planning. Both are fully insured and professional, but the man with van option is often chosen for speed, convenience and cost-effectiveness where a full-scale removals crew would be more than you need. We’re happy to advise which option best fits your situation.
How far in advance should I book?
For weekend or month-end moves, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, as these periods are particularly busy in Tottenham. For midweek or smaller jobs, a few days’ notice is often enough, though more notice gives you a wider choice of time slots. If your dates are not yet fixed, we can provide a provisional quote and firm up the booking once you have confirmation. We’ll always try to help with last-minute moves where our schedule allows.
Student Removals
Student Removals Tottenham – Man and Van Tottenham
Moving as a student can be stressful – especially if you’re juggling exams, work, and tight rental dates. At Man and Van Tottenham, we provide a dedicated student removals service in Tottenham and surrounding areas, designed to be affordable, flexible, and efficient, without cutting corners on care or professionalism.
Specialist Student Removals in Tottenham
Our student moving service is built around the realities of student life: small to medium loads, shared houses, halls of residence, limited budgets and often awkward access or time windows. We handle everything from a single room in halls to a full shared flat, whether you’re:
- Moving into or out of university accommodation
- Switching between shared houses in Tottenham
- Returning home during the holidays
- Bringing belongings back for a new academic year
Every move is carried out by a trained, professional team using suitable vehicles, with your belongings covered by our goods in transit insurance.
Who Our Student Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
If you have a son or daughter at university in Tottenham, we can move their belongings between home and their term-time address, coordinating with you to minimise disruption. We can also combine student loads with a wider family move to keep costs sensible.
Renters
Private renters in Tottenham often move between studios, flat shares and HMOs. We provide cost-effective small-load moves, including evening or weekend slots, so you can move without needing a large removal lorry or taking extra days off work.
Landlords
For landlords managing student properties, we offer reliable removals and clear-outs between tenancies. This includes moving furniture in and out, removing abandoned items (within legal guidelines) and rearranging rooms ready for the next intake.
Businesses
Local businesses and accommodation providers working with students – such as language schools or training centres – use us to move students between temporary accommodation, or transport personal effects and educational equipment between sites.
Students
Our core service is for individual students and groups sharing a house or flat. Whether you’re moving one room or an entire shared property, we offer transparent pricing, friendly crews and the option to book small or large vans depending on how much you have.
What’s Included in Our Student Removals
Typical Items We Move
We can safely transport most items you’d expect in student accommodation, including:
- Beds, mattresses, wardrobes and drawers
- Desks, chairs and shelving units
- Suitcases, bags and boxes of clothes
- Books, folders, course materials and stationery
- Computers, monitors, printers and small office equipment
- TVs, gaming consoles and audio equipment
- Kitchenware, small appliances and food-safe items
- Bicycles, sports equipment and musical instruments
Items We Cannot or Do Not Move
For safety and insurance reasons, some items are excluded or need special arrangements:
- Hazardous materials (flammables, gas canisters, chemicals)
- Illegal items or anything prohibited by law
- Unboxed loose liquids or open food
- Very high-value items without prior declaration
- Pets or live animals
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, ask when you request your quote. We’ll advise on what’s allowed and how best to pack it.
Our Step-by-Step Student Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact Man and Van Tottenham by phone, email or our online form. Tell us where you’re moving from and to, your dates, access details and a rough list of items. We’ll provide a clear, no-obligation quote with no hidden charges, tailored to your load size and timing.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For most student moves, a quick virtual survey (photos, video call or item list) is enough. For larger shared houses or furnished moves, we may arrange a short onsite visit in Tottenham to confirm volume, access, and parking. This prevents surprises on the day and ensures we send the right van and crew.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own belongings, or we can quote for a packing service if needed. We recommend:
- Using sturdy boxes for books and heavy items
- Wrapping fragile items with paper or bubble wrap
- Labelling boxes by room and contents
On request, we can supply boxes and packing materials in advance, or help with dismantling furniture such as bed frames and desks.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our trained team arrives on time, protects key items and carefully loads the van. We use blankets, straps and appropriate handling techniques to keep everything secure in transit. Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while being moved between addresses.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new address, we unload items into the rooms you specify, not just the doorway. We’ll reassemble any furniture we took apart as part of the agreed service and place larger items where you want them, so you can start settling in straight away.
Transparent Pricing for Student Removals
We understand students and families often work to tight budgets. Our pricing is straightforward and tailored to the size and complexity of your move:
- Small moves priced by the hour with a minimum charge (ideal for room-only moves)
- Fixed-price quotes for larger flat or shared house moves
- Optional add-ons, such as packing, materials, and furniture assembly
We always explain what is included: vehicle size, number of movers, estimated time and any travel or congestion charges. There are no surprise extras on the day.
Why Use Professional Removals Instead of DIY?
Hiring a casual van or attempting a DIY move may appear cheaper, but it often leads to damage, delays, and extra stress. With Man and Van Tottenham you benefit from:
- Professional handling of heavy and awkward items
- Proper protection and loading techniques to minimise damage
- Reliable timings – we turn up when we say we will
- Full insurance cover for your goods during the move
- Reduced risk of injury from lifting or carrying up and down stairs
For many students, sharing the cost between housemates makes a professional service both practical and cost-effective.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Man and Van Tottenham operates to clear professional standards to protect you and your belongings:
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to third-party property
- Trained moving teams – experienced staff used to student accommodation, narrow staircases and restricted access
We follow best practices for lifting, loading and securing items, and we’re happy to walk you through how we’ll handle any particularly important or fragile possessions.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Every move is carried out with care. We use removal blankets, straps and, where needed, mattress and sofa protectors to minimise the risk of damage. Floors and doorways are protected as required, especially in shared blocks or managed accommodation where common areas must be kept clean and tidy.
We’re also mindful of our environmental impact. Wherever possible we:
- Reuse durable packing materials
- Encourage box sharing between housemates
- Plan routes efficiently to reduce fuel use
- Separate reusable items for donation if you’re decluttering before a move
Real-World Use Cases for Student Removals in Tottenham
Moving Between Halls and Private Rentals
Many students start in halls, then move to shared houses in their second or third year. We regularly move small to medium loads between student blocks and rented properties, often coordinating multiple students’ belongings into one shared move to save costs.
Heading Home for Summer Break
Instead of paying to store items you barely use, we can move your belongings back home at the end of term and return them when the new term begins. This works especially well for out-of-London students studying in Tottenham.
Urgent and Last-Minute Moves
Accommodation plans can change suddenly – a tenancy not renewed, a flat share breaking up, or a landlord selling up. Subject to availability, we offer same-day or short-notice student removals in Tottenham, helping you vacate on time and avoid penalty fees.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do student removals in Tottenham cost?
Prices depend on how much you have, the distance between addresses, and any extra services such as packing or furniture assembly. Small student moves are often charged by the hour with a sensible minimum, while larger shared house moves can be quoted at a fixed price. To keep costs down, we recommend being clear about your inventory and access details so we can match the right van and crew. Sharing the cost between housemates usually makes a professional move very affordable.
Can you do same-day or urgent student moves?
Yes, subject to availability we can provide same-day or next-day student removals in Tottenham. This is particularly useful if you need to vacate quickly at the end of a tenancy or a change of plans leaves you with little notice. Call us as early as you can with your addresses, rough inventory, and preferred time. We’ll check our schedule, advise what’s realistic, and give you a clear quote before confirming the booking.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles, and we also hold public liability cover for added protection. This is designed to give students and parents peace of mind that belongings are protected against major unforeseen issues. We still ask you to pack carefully, especially fragile items, and to tell us in advance about any particularly high-value items so we can advise on any specific requirements.
What’s included in your student removals service?
Our standard service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional moving team, loading, transport and unloading into the rooms you specify. We bring blankets and securing equipment as standard. Optional extras include packing materials, a full or partial packing service, and furniture dismantling and reassembly. We’ll explain exactly what’s included in your quote, so you know whether you’re responsible for packing boxes and disconnecting appliances before we arrive.
How is a professional removal different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van often offers simple transport only, with limited protection, variable reliability and no formal insurance. Our service is a professional removal: experienced crews, appropriate vehicles, proper protection, and fully insured cover as standard. We survey your move, plan access, and provide clear terms and pricing. For students with important coursework, electronics and sentimental items, this level of care and reliability usually represents much better value than the cheapest option.
How far in advance should I book my student move?
For peak periods – especially end of term and late summer – we recommend booking at least two weeks in advance, and earlier if possible. This gives you a better choice of dates and times and allows us to plan efficient routes. Outside of busy periods, a few days’ notice is often enough, and we can sometimes accommodate next-day or same-day moves. If your dates are uncertain, we can discuss provisional bookings and how to confirm once your tenancy details are finalised.

We assist landlords and agents with same day clearances and removals, including removing abandoned furniture, clearing properties for new tenants and relocating items to storage or other properties.
Businesses
From small offices to independent retailers, we handle same day business relocations, urgent equipment moves and time-sensitive deliveries, planning the move around your trading hours to minimise downtime.
Students
Students often face tight deadlines with halls move-out dates or last-minute accommodation changes. Our affordable same day service suits single rooms or shared flats with flexible timings and smaller loads.

- Kitchen appliances – fridges, freezers, washing machines, cookers (disconnected)
- Boxes, suitcases and bags
- Office furniture – desks, filing cabinets, chairs, shelving
- IT and electrical equipment – computers, printers, monitors, TVs

If you are unsure whether something can be moved on the same day, we can usually confirm over the phone or via photos during the enquiry stage.
Our Step-by-Step Same day Removals Process
1. Enquiry & quote
Contact us as early in the day as possible. We will ask key questions about your current property, destination, number of rooms and any large or awkward items. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote and confirm whether same day is achievable.
2. Survey (virtual or onsite)
For most same day moves, we carry out a quick virtual survey via photos or video call. For larger or more complex jobs, and where time allows, we may attend briefly onsite. The survey helps us allocate the right van size, number of movers and time window.
3. Packing & preparation
You can pre-pack your belongings, or we can provide a same day packing service for part or all of the property, subject to time. We protect furniture with blankets, shrink-wrap where suitable, and dismantle larger items as required for safe transport.
4. Loading & transport
Our trained team loads systematically, securing everything with straps and padding to prevent movement in transit. We use practical, safe lifting techniques and take particular care with fragile or sentimental items. Once loaded, we transport your goods directly to the new address or storage facility.
5. Unloading & placement
On arrival, we unload items into the rooms you specify, placing large furniture where you want it. Where agreed, we reassemble dismantled items such as bed frames and basic wardrobes, so you can settle in more quickly the same day.
Transparent Same day Removals Pricing
Same day work needs clear, honest pricing. We base our quotes on:
- Volume of goods (number of rooms / size of load)
- Access at both addresses (stairs, lifts, parking distance)
- Travel distance between properties
- Number of movers required
- Any packing, dismantling or reassembly needed
- Urgency and time of day
We typically offer either a fixed price for the whole job or a clear hourly rate with a minimum booking period. There are no hidden extras – any potential additional charges (such as congestion charges or parking costs) are explained in advance wherever possible.
Why Choose Professional Removals Instead of DIY
When time is tight, DIY or casual help can quickly become stressful and risky. A professional, trained removals team brings:
- Proper lifting techniques to reduce the risk of injury
- Appropriate equipment – trolleys, blankets, straps and tools
- Experience loading vans safely to avoid damage in transit
- Reliable timekeeping and clear communication
- Insurance cover that you will not get from informal helpers
The cost difference is often smaller than people expect, and the reduction in risk, damage and delays is significant – particularly for same day or deadline-driven moves.
Insurance & Professional Standards
We take our responsibility for your belongings seriously and work to clear, professional standards.
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your possessions while they are in our vehicle, subject to terms and conditions.
- Public liability cover – protection against accidental damage to property during the move.
- Trained moving teams – staff are briefed on safe handling, packing and customer care.
Full details of cover, exclusions and any limits can be provided with your quote. We always encourage customers to have their own contents insurance in place as an additional safeguard.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Even when time is tight, we do not compromise on care:
- Use of protective blankets and wraps for furniture
- Floor and banister protection where needed
- Careful securing of loads to prevent movement
We also aim to work responsibly:
- Reusing and recycling packing materials where appropriate
- Planning routes to minimise unnecessary mileage
- Working with local reuse and recycling schemes for unwanted items
Real-World Same day Removals Use Cases
Moving house at short notice
Completion dates shift, landlords change plans and sometimes you simply have to be out quickly. We regularly help Tottenham residents move from flats or houses to new homes or storage on the same day, coordinating closely with agents and new keyholders.
Urgent office relocations
Small businesses often cannot afford downtime. We plan same day office moves outside trading hours where possible, moving essential equipment first so you can get back up and running quickly.
Last-minute student moves
Students frequently call us the day before – or even the morning of – their tenancy ending. We can clear a room or shared flat quickly, moving everything to a new address, storage unit or back home.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do same day removals in Tottenham cost?
Pricing depends on the size of your move, access, distance and how many movers you need. Smaller same day jobs may be charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking, while larger moves are often quoted at a fixed price once we understand the volume and details. Urgent or out-of-hours moves can cost slightly more due to scheduling pressures, but we always give a clear price before you book. Contact us with a brief description or photos for a tailored estimate.
Can you always offer same day or urgent removals?
Availability depends on our diary, but we keep some flexibility for urgent work, especially in Tottenham and nearby areas. The earlier in the day you contact us, the more likely we can help. For very large properties, we may suggest a partial same day move and completion the following day if needed. We will always be honest about what is achievable within the time available so you can make an informed decision and avoid unrealistic promises.
Are my belongings insured during a same day move?
Yes. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicle, and we also hold public liability cover for work at your property. As with any policy, there are limits and exclusions, such as certain high-value items or items not properly packed. We outline the key details with your quote and can answer specific questions in advance. We also recommend maintaining your own home or contents insurance as an additional layer of protection.
What exactly is included in a same day removals service?
Our standard service includes a suitable vehicle, a trained removals team, loading, transport and unloading into the rooms you choose. We provide protective blankets and securing straps as standard. Subject to time and prior agreement, we can also offer packing assistance, dismantling and reassembling basic furniture and moving items into storage instead of another property. Packing materials and any specialist services may be quoted separately so that you only pay for what you genuinely need on the day.
How is a professional removals service different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van can be useful for very small, low-risk jobs, but often lacks the professional standards, insurance and equipment needed for a full move. We provide trained teams, documented insurance, proper packing and securing of loads, and clear communication from booking to completion. For larger properties, expensive items or tight deadlines, using a structured removals service significantly reduces the risk of damage, delays and last-minute cancellations that can happen with informal providers.
How far in advance do I need to book a same day removal?
For same day moves, contact us as soon as you know you need to move – ideally first thing in the morning. This gives us the best chance to allocate a vehicle and team that match your requirements. For next-day or planned urgent moves, 24–48 hours’ notice is ideal, but we understand that is not always possible. Even if your situation is very last-minute, call us – we will quickly confirm what we can realistically do that day.
