What Is Included in Our House Removals

Our standard house removals service can be adapted to suit you, but typically includes:

• Door-to-door transport of all agreed household items.
• Protective blanketing and strapping for furniture in the vehicle.
• Careful handling of sofas, beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs and other large items.
• Moving of boxed belongings such as clothes, books, kitchenware and personal effects.
• Placement of furniture and boxes into the correct rooms at the new property.
• Basic disassembly and reassembly of straightforward furniture (by prior agreement).

Optional Service Variations

• Full packing service – we supply materials and pack everything for you.
• Part packing service – for breakables or specific rooms only.
• Unpacking service – placing items onto surfaces and into cupboards.
• Short-term storage – for gap moves or staged relocations.

What We Cannot Move

For safety, legal and insurance reasons there are some items we cannot carry as part of a standard move:

• Flammable, explosive or hazardous materials (e.g. gas cylinders, fuels, some chemicals).
• Open tins of paint, solvents or similar liquids.
• Illegal items of any kind.
• Live animals (including pets and livestock).
• Perishable food for long-distance or all-day moves.
• High-value items such as jewellery, cash, important documents – we recommend you transport these personally.

If you are unsure about any item, we will advise during your survey so there are no surprises on moving day.

Our Step-by-Step Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

You contact us with your moving details, including addresses, property size and preferred dates. We discuss your requirements, any access issues and what level of service you need. Based on this information we provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining what is included.

2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)

To ensure accuracy, we carry out either a video call survey or an in-person home visit. As experienced movers, we assess parking, access, staircases, lifts and the volume of goods. This allows us to allocate the right size vehicle, the right number of trained staff and the correct amount of time for a smooth move.

3. Packing & Preparation

If you choose our packing service, our team will arrive ahead of moving day (or earlier on the day itself for smaller moves). We bring professional materials – double-walled boxes, tape, paper and protective wraps – and pack your belongings securely, labelling boxes by room and contents. If you are self-packing, we can supply materials and provide guidance on best practice.

4. Loading & Transport

On moving day, our professional crew arrives on time, protects floors and bannisters where required, and methodically loads your goods. Furniture is wrapped and secured in the vehicle using blankets and straps. We then transport your belongings directly to your new home in our purpose-equipped removals vehicles, driven by experienced local drivers.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new property, we unload items into the rooms you specify, positioning furniture where you want it. Any agreed reassembly is carried out, and we make sure key items such as beds and sofas are ready for use. Before we leave, we check that you are happy with everything and that nothing has been missed.

Transparent, Fair Pricing for House Removals in Surrey

Removal costs depend on several factors: property size, volume of belongings, distance between addresses, access (stairs, parking, long carries), and the level of service (packing, dismantling, storage, etc.).

We provide clear written quotations with no hidden extras. Any potential additional costs (for example, waiting time due to delayed keys, or long carry from distant parking) are explained upfront so you can budget confidently. Our aim is to balance competitive pricing with enough time and staff to do the job properly and safely.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Man-and-Van

Trying to move house with a borrowed van or a casual man-and-van can appear cheaper, but it often results in multiple trips, damaged furniture, and a very long day. As a specialist Surrey removals firm, we bring:

• Trained crews who move heavy and awkward items safely.
• Correct equipment such as dollies, straps and protective covers.
• Appropriate insurance to protect your belongings and property.
• Careful planning to avoid delays and last-minute problems.

In our experience, a well-run professional move reduces stress, minimises breakages and often works out better value once time, risk and potential damage are taken into account.

Insurance & Professional Standards

We take responsibility for your belongings seriously. Surrey Movers operates with:

• Goods in transit insurance to cover your items while they are being moved.
• Public liability cover for damage or injury relating to our work on site.
• Trained moving teams who follow safe handling and lifting practices.

Our crews are briefed on each job, arrive in uniform and are used to working in both busy urban streets and quiet residential areas across Surrey. We always respect your home, your neighbours and your schedule.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We handle your possessions as if they were our own. That means using protective blankets, mattress covers, wardrobe cartons and appropriate wrapping for fragile pieces. We plan load orders carefully so nothing is crushed or rubbed in transit.

Where possible, we reuse sturdy boxes and materials, and we separate waste responsibly at our base. Our vehicles are regularly maintained and loaded efficiently to reduce unnecessary journeys and emissions. By planning routes sensibly across Surrey, we minimise our environmental impact while still providing a reliable service.

Real-World Removals Across Surrey

Moving House

From compact town-centre flats to large detached houses, we regularly support families and individuals moving within Surrey or further afield. We are used to working around completion times, key-release delays and chain-related uncertainties.

Office and Small Business Moves

We help local businesses relocate offices, studios and shops, moving desks, IT equipment, stock and archives with minimal downtime. Moves can often be scheduled outside normal working hours to reduce disruption.

Urgent and Short-Notice Moves

Life is not always predictable. Where our schedule allows, we can arrange short-notice or urgent moves, including tenancy changes, emergency clearances and last-minute relocations. If we can help, we will move quickly to get a team to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a house removal in Surrey cost?

Costs vary depending on property size, volume, distance and access. A small flat move within Surrey might be a few hundred pounds, whereas a large family home with full packing will naturally cost more. During your survey we assess what is genuinely required, then provide a clear, itemised quote. There are no hidden fees; any potential extras, such as key-waiting charges or parking costs, are explained in advance so you can make an informed decision and budget with confidence.

Can you do same-day or urgent removals?

Where our schedule and staffing allow, we can often accommodate same-day or short-notice moves within Surrey. Availability will depend on vehicle size and the complexity of your move, so the earlier you contact us, the better. For urgent situations, we focus on the essentials: getting you safely out of your current property and into the new one, with the option to add further services such as unpacking or storage once the immediate move has been completed.

What insurance cover do you provide?

We carry goods in transit insurance, which covers your belongings while they are being moved, as well as public liability insurance to protect against accidental damage or injury linked to our work. Full details, including limits and exclusions, are available with your quotation. We still handle everything as carefully as possible to avoid any need for claims, but knowing cover is in place gives our customers added reassurance during what is already a busy and important time.

What is included in your removals service as standard?

As standard, we provide a suitable vehicle, a trained removals team, protective blankets and equipment, careful loading, safe transport and unloading into the correct rooms at your new property. Basic dismantling of straightforward items can usually be included if agreed in advance. Optional extras, such as full or part packing, unpacking and storage, can be added as needed. Your written quote will set out exactly what is and is not included so there is complete clarity before moving day.

How is a professional removals service different from man-and-van?

A casual man-and-van typically provides transport and basic lifting, but may not have the same level of training, insurance, equipment or planning. As a dedicated removals company, we carry out proper surveys, bring the right number of staff, use protective materials, and hold the necessary insurances. This reduces the risk of damage to your belongings or property and usually makes the move smoother and quicker. Many customers who have tried both say a professional service feels far less stressful overall.

How far in advance should I book my removal?

For most house moves in Surrey, we recommend booking as soon as you have a clear idea of dates, ideally two to four weeks in advance. This is especially important during busy periods such as school holidays and month-ends. That said, we understand that exchange and completion dates can change, so we try to remain as flexible as possible. If your move is imminent, still get in touch – we will always check our diary and do our best to fit you in.
