We regularly manage full home moves, including packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and careful handling of fragile and high-value items. We plan around completion times and key handovers so the day runs as smoothly as possible.

Renters

Whether you’re moving between flats, house shares or in and out of rented accommodation, we offer flexible, cost-effective removals. We can work around lift access, parking restrictions and tight stairwells, protecting both your belongings and the property so you leave it in good condition for inspections.

Landlords

We support landlords with tenant changeovers, end-of-tenancy clearances and part-moves. If you need furniture moved between properties, or contents cleared and stored, we provide a reliable, professional service with clear documentation and punctual arrival times.

Businesses

Our commercial moves cover small offices, retail spaces and service-based businesses in and around New Addington. We move desks, IT equipment, stock and archive materials with care, planning work to minimise downtime and disruption to your staff and customers.

Students

We regularly help students move between home, halls and shared houses. Our student-friendly services are ideal for smaller loads, with options for shared moves and specific collection and delivery time slots.

What Our Removal Service Includes

Items Typically Included

We handle most household and office contents, including:

• Sofas, beds, wardrobes and all types of domestic furniture
• White goods such as fridges, freezers, washing machines and cookers
• Boxes of personal belongings, clothes, books and ornaments
• TVs, computers and standard home electronics
• Office desks, chairs, filing cabinets and general workplace equipment
• Garden furniture, tools and outdoor items (weather permitting)

Items We Cannot or May Not Move

For safety and insurance reasons, there are some items we either cannot move or need to assess individually, including:

• Hazardous materials (fuel, gas bottles, chemicals, paint thinners, explosives)
• Live animals or pets
• Illegal goods or items of uncertain ownership
• Very high-value items such as fine art, jewellery or antiques without prior agreement
• Industrial machinery beyond standard office equipment
• Perishable or frozen food for long-distance moves

If you’re unsure about a particular item, we’ll advise during the survey so everything is clear in advance.

Our Step-by-Step Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with your move details: addresses, dates, property sizes and any special requirements. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining what is and isn’t included. Where possible we offer a fixed price, so you know exactly what to budget.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most moves we complete a short survey, either by video call or in person. This lets us assess access, parking, number of rooms, large items and any fragile pieces. A proper survey ensures we send the right size vehicle, the correct number of movers and the necessary packing materials.

3. Packing & Preparation

We offer flexible options, including:

• Full packing service – we pack everything, supply all materials and label each box clearly.
• Part packing service – we pack fragile or tricky items such as glassware, pictures and electronics.
• Self-packing – you pack your own boxes and we provide loading, transport and unloading.

We can also dismantle and protect larger furniture where needed.

4. Loading & Transport

On moving day, our trained team arrives at the agreed time, protects floors and bannisters where appropriate, and begins carefully loading. We use blankets, straps and covers to keep furniture secure in the vehicle. Your goods are then transported directly to your new property using the most efficient route.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new address we unload systematically, placing items into the rooms you specify. We rebuild any furniture we dismantled and position larger pieces so you’re able to settle in more quickly. Before leaving, we check you’re satisfied that everything listed has been delivered.

Transparent, Fair Pricing

Our pricing is straightforward and explained in advance. Costs typically depend on:

• Volume of goods (property size and number of items)
• Distance between the collection and delivery addresses
• Access issues (stairs, lack of lift, long walks, parking restrictions)
• Level of service (for example, full packing service versus transport only)
• Any extra services such as storage or multiple drop-offs

We provide written quotes, not vague estimates, and we’re always happy to explain how the price has been calculated. There are no hidden extras added on the day without prior agreement.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY

Hiring a professional removal company like Man With a Van New Addington offers significant advantages over doing it yourself or relying on a casual, unregulated man-and-van service:

• Safety – our team is trained in correct lifting techniques and load securing, reducing the risk of injuries and damage.
• Efficiency – we move households daily, so we work quickly and methodically, often in far fewer trips.
• Protection – we use proper equipment, including trolleys, blankets and covers, to protect both items and property.
• Insurance – our work is fully covered, which informal operators usually cannot offer.
• Peace of mind – agreed timings, clear communication and a contract-backed service.

Insurance & Professional Standards

We take responsibility for your belongings seriously. Our service includes:

• Goods in transit insurance – covers your items while they’re being moved in our vehicles, within the policy limits.
• Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to third-party property or injury while we are working.
• Trained moving teams – staff are experienced, briefed on each job and follow standard operating procedures.

Policy details and limits are available on request so you can see exactly how you’re protected.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat every move as if it were our own property. That means careful wrapping of delicate items, protecting doorways and floors where needed and ensuring goods are properly secured in our vehicles. We encourage re-use of boxes where possible and can supply reusable crates for suitable moves.

Where we provide packing materials, we aim to use recyclable products and keep waste to a minimum. We also plan routes with efficiency in mind, helping to reduce unnecessary mileage and emissions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a removal service in New Addington cost?

The cost of a removal service depends mainly on the volume of belongings, the distance between properties and the level of help you need. A small flat move within New Addington will naturally cost less than a large house move travelling long distance with full packing included. After a brief discussion and, where appropriate, a survey, we provide a clear, itemised quote. This sets out everything included, so you can compare like-for-like with other removal companies. There are no hidden charges added on the day without agreement.

Can you do same-day or urgent removals?

We can often accommodate urgent or same-day removals in New Addington, depending on our existing bookings and the size of the job. Smaller flat or student moves are more likely to be possible at short notice, while larger house or office moves usually require more planning and vehicle allocation. If you’re facing an unexpected situation, contact us as early as you can with your details. We’ll check availability, explain what’s realistically achievable and provide a clear price before you commit.

Are my belongings insured during the move?

Yes. Your belongings are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are being transported in our vehicles, subject to policy terms and limits. We also carry public liability cover for added protection at both the collection and delivery addresses. During the survey we can highlight any items that may need special consideration or additional cover. We still handle every item with care to prevent damage in the first place, using suitable wrapping, padding and secure loading techniques.

What exactly is included in your removals service?

Our standard removals service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional moving team, loading, transport and unloading at your new property. We place items into the rooms you specify and can dismantle and reassemble basic furniture by prior arrangement. Optional extras include a full packing service, part packing for fragile items, supply of packing materials and short-term storage solutions. Before booking, we provide a written breakdown of what’s included so you know precisely what to expect on moving day.

How is a professional removal company different from a basic man-and-van?

A casual man-and-van is often suitable for very small, low-value moves, but typically won’t offer the same level of protection, planning or accountability. As a professional removal company, we provide written quotes, insurance cover, trained staff, proper equipment and a structured process from survey to completion. We’re used to handling full homes and offices, fragile items and tight schedules. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and disputes, and gives you much greater peace of mind during what can already be a stressful time.

How far in advance should I book my removal?

For most moves, we recommend booking as soon as you have a confirmed date, especially if you’re moving at busy times such as month-end, Fridays or during summer. For typical house and office moves, two to four weeks’ notice is ideal, as it allows time for surveys, planning and any packing requirements. That said, we understand dates can change, so we always do our best to accommodate late bookings where our schedule allows. It’s always worth calling to check availability.
