What We Cannot Move
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded or require prior agreement:

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with details of your upcoming office move in Harrow. We discuss dates, locations, size of your team and any specific requirements such as IT relocation or out-of-hours working. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quotation outlining the scope of work, estimated duration and any optional services like packing or crate hire.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For offices, a detailed survey is essential. We can arrange a virtual video survey or an onsite visit in Harrow. We assess access, lifts and staircases, parking, quantities of furniture and IT, and any sensitive areas. This allows us to allocate the right number of professional movers, vehicles and materials, and helps you plan staff communication and downtime.
3. Packing & Preparation
We offer flexible options:
- Full packing service – our team packs workstations, files and equipment, providing labels and crate systems.
- Part packing – we handle fragile or high-value items; your staff pack personal desks and non-critical items.
- Self packing – we supply crates and materials; you pack in-house and we move on the day.
We coordinate with your IT provider to ensure equipment is shut down and ready, minimising risk of damage.
4. Loading & Transport
On move day, our trained team arrives at the agreed time, often outside normal working hours to reduce disruption. We protect floors, doors and lifts, dismantle furniture as needed, and load in a structured way to match your new office layout. Your items are transported in our purpose-equipped vehicles under goods in transit insurance, with secure strapping and padding.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new premises, we unload and place everything according to your floorplans, so staff can sit down and work with minimal delay. We reassemble desks and furniture, position IT equipment ready for connection, and remove used packing materials. Our aim is for your team to arrive to an office that feels ready, not like a building site.
Transparent Pricing for Office Removals in Harrow
Office removals are priced according to several factors rather than a one-size-fits-all rate. We base our quotations on:
- Number of workstations and total office size
- Volume of furniture, files and equipment
- Complexity of access and distance between sites
- Required timings (standard hours, evenings or weekends)
- Packing and unpacking services requested
You receive a detailed written quote with no hidden extras. If your requirements change, we update the quote in advance so you remain in control of costs.
Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY or Man-and-Van
Attempting an office move with a casual man-and-van or by using your own staff can appear cheaper, but it usually costs more in lost time and risk. Professional office removals from Harrow Movers provide:
- A planned schedule to reduce downtime and keep staff productive
- Fully insured transport and handling of your business assets
- Trained teams who know how to protect IT, furniture and premises
- Correct equipment – trolleys, covers, straps and protective materials
- Compliance with building regulations, access rules and health & safety
Using a professional service protects not just your equipment, but your reputation with clients and staff.
Insurance and Professional Standards
As a responsible removals company, we operate to clear, professional standards on every office move:
- Goods in transit insurance – covering your items while they are being transported.
- Public liability cover – protecting you and your building managers during loading and unloading.
- Trained moving teams – staff experienced in office moves, manual handling and safe working practices.
We are happy to provide proof of cover for your building management or landlord in Harrow, and to work within any permit or access requirements.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your office contents as if they were our own. That means robust protection of equipment and premises, and a thoughtful approach to resources:
- Use of reusable plastic crates where possible to reduce cardboard waste
- Protective covers for IT, furniture and doorways
- Efficient route planning to minimise journey times and emissions
- Options for responsible disposal or recycling of unwanted furniture and equipment (by prior arrangement)
Our approach balances professional care with a practical awareness of environmental impact.
Real-World Office Removals Use Cases
- Moving house and home offices – combining domestic moves with the safe relocation of home-working setups, including desks and IT equipment.
- Office relocation – moving entire teams from one Harrow office to another, often over a single weekend to avoid trading disruption.
- Urgent moves – last-minute relocations due to lease changes, building works or rapid growth; we reorganise schedules where possible to support you.
- Internal reconfigurations – rearranging floors, departments or meeting spaces within the same building.
Whatever your situation, we focus on a calm, organised move that keeps your business running.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do office removals in Harrow cost?
The cost depends on the size of your office, the amount of furniture and equipment, access at both locations and whether you need packing services or out-of-hours working. Smaller offices may only require a single vehicle and team for a day, while larger relocations might run over several days or phases. After a survey, we provide a clear fixed-price quotation so you know exactly what’s included before you commit, with no hidden extras added on the day.
Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?
We understand that business circumstances can change quickly, and urgent relocations do arise. Where our schedule allows, we can organise same-day or short-notice office removals in Harrow, including evening or weekend work to minimise disruption. Availability will depend on team and vehicle capacity, as we never compromise on staffing levels or safety. Contact us as soon as you know you need to move and we will explain what is realistically achievable within your timescales.
What insurance cover do you provide?
We provide goods in transit insurance as standard, protecting your office furniture, IT equipment and contents while they are being transported. We also hold public liability insurance, covering potential damage to premises or third parties during loading and unloading. Our policies are suited to commercial clients and we can supply documentation for your building management or landlord if required. While we take every precaution to avoid incidents, having the right cover in place offers added reassurance throughout your move.
What’s included in your office removals service?
Our standard office removals service includes a survey, planning support, loading, transport and unloading to your agreed floorplan. We can dismantle and reassemble furniture, protect IT equipment, and place items in their new locations. Optional extras include full or part packing services, crate hire and assistance with disposal of unwanted items by prior agreement. We tailor each move to your business needs, so you can choose a simple transport-only service or a fully managed relocation.
How is a professional office removal different from a man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van may be suitable for very small, low-risk moves, but most offices benefit from a structured, professional service. We provide a detailed survey, clear planning, appropriate insurance and a team trained specifically in office relocations. We bring the right equipment, protect your premises, coordinate timings and work to minimise downtime for your staff. This reduces the risk of damage, lost items and business disruption, which can easily outweigh any short-term savings from using an informal service.
How far in advance should I book my office move?
For the smoothest experience, we recommend booking your Harrow office removal at least four to six weeks in advance, especially if you need a weekend move or have a larger team. This gives us time to survey both sites, plan access and provide crates or packing materials. However, we understand that leases and projects do not always run perfectly to schedule. If your timeframe is shorter, contact us as early as possible and we will do our best to accommodate your dates.
