Office removals with a clear plan.

Start with the workspace inventory

List desks, chairs, cabinets, boxed files and equipment by room or department. Distinguish items that will be reused from those staying behind. Note the dimensions of larger desks and cabinets, and say whether you need dismantling and reassembly.

For IT, machinery, unusually heavy equipment or confidential records, explain the requirements before the move is quoted. Specialist handling, disconnection, reconnection and installation are not assumed to be part of a standard moving enquiry.

Build the move around your operation

You can request a phased, evening or weekend move. Set out the preferred access window, which rooms need to move first and any handover deadlines. These are planning requests; crew availability and working hours are confirmed before booking.

Appoint a contact at each location who can open the building, identify the correct items and direct unloading. A simple room labelling plan helps keep departments and workstations together.

Access details that affect the plan

• Loading bay location, vehicle height limits and any advance booking process.
• Goods lifts, lift dimensions, floor levels and security desk arrangements.
• Distance between the vehicle and the lift or entrance.
• Building manager permissions and any contractor check-in requirements.
• The order of collections, delivery phases and time-critical equipment.

Confirm scope, suitability and price

A useful business quote sets out the agreed inventory, crew, access arrangements, timing and extras. If the job needs a survey, discuss how to review the load before committing to a moving day.

Confirm the relevant cover, exclusions and responsibilities for equipment preparation. Tell us if the inventory or access changes so that the plan can be reviewed. An enquiry creates a conversation about your move, not an automatic reservation.
