Local Expertise in Surrey

Based in Surrey, we understand local business parks, high streets and access issues. From Guildford and Woking to Epsom, Redhill and surrounding areas, we plan routes to avoid congestion and arrange vehicle sizes suitable for your location, loading bays and time restrictions.

Our drivers and move planners know Surrey’s roads well, which helps reduce delays and keeps your schedule realistic. We can also work with your building management or facilities team to coordinate lift bookings, parking permits and loading arrangements.

Who Our Office Removals Service Is For

While this page focuses on office moves, many different clients benefit from our services:

• Homeowners – relocating home offices, studios or study spaces as part of a wider move.
• Renters – moving work-from-home setups between rented properties.
• Landlords – clearing or setting up furnished offices or mixed-use properties.
• Businesses – from sole traders to multi-floor offices needing a structured relocation.
• Students – moving desks, computers and books between term-time and holiday addresses.

What’s Included in Our Office Removals

We can move almost everything you would expect to find in a modern office, including:

• Office desks, chairs and meeting room furniture
• Filing cabinets, storage units and shelving
• Desktop computers, monitors, printers and peripherals
• Servers, network racks (when prepared by your IT team)
• Kitchen appliances such as kettles, microwaves and fridges
• Archiving boxes, files and confidential documents
• Whiteboards, display boards and reception furniture
• Personal items and crates labelled by staff

Items We Cannot Move or Need to Assess First

For safety and compliance reasons, some items are excluded or require prior agreement:

• Hazardous materials (chemicals, solvents, gas cylinders)
• Large industrial machinery not designed for normal office use
• Heavy safes or fireproof cabinets above standard weight limits
• Cash, high-value jewellery or unlisted valuables
• Live plants in very poor condition or infestations

If you are unsure about a specific item, we will advise during the survey stage.

Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quote

It starts with a simple enquiry. You can call or email us with an outline of your move: current and new addresses, rough office size, key dates and any special requirements. We provide an initial estimate and discuss timelines, access and budget. For straightforward smaller offices, we may be able to give a fixed price based on your information and photos.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For most office removals we recommend a virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to:

• Measure volumes of furniture and equipment
• Check access, lifts, stairways and parking
• Identify any dismantling or specialist handling needed
• Plan vehicle sizes and team numbers accurately

After the survey, we confirm a clear, itemised quote with no hidden extras.

3. Packing & Preparation

We offer flexible options:

• Full packing service – our team packs your office contents into crates and cartons, labels everything and protects fragile items.
• Part packing – we handle IT and fragile items; your staff pack personal belongings and files.
• Self-pack – we supply crates and materials, and you pack at your own pace.

We provide professional packing materials and can schedule packing outside normal hours to reduce disruption.

4. Loading & Transport

On move day, our trained team arrives on time, carries out a walk-through and protects key areas such as lifts, walls and floors. We dismantle agreed items, wrap furniture, safely disconnect clearly-labelled IT (unless handled by your own IT support) and load systematically. Vehicles are equipped with blankets, straps and trolleys to keep everything secure in transit. We then travel directly to your new premises using planned routes.

5. Unloading & Placement

At the new site, we unload and place items according to your floor plan or team instructions. Desks and furniture are reassembled where required, crates are distributed to the correct departments and meeting rooms are set up as requested. Before leaving, we carry out a final check with you to ensure everything essential is in place so your staff can resume work quickly.

Transparent Pricing for Office Removals

Office removal costs vary depending on size, access, distance and level of packing required. We aim to keep pricing straightforward and transparent. Your written quotation will clearly show what is included, any optional extras and our terms. There are no hidden call-out charges.

To help you budget, we can provide:

• Fixed-price quotes for clearly defined moves
• Day-rate or phased pricing for larger, multi-day relocations
• Separate pricing for packing, materials and storage (if needed)

Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY

Attempting an office move with borrowed vans and untrained staff often leads to delays, damage and downtime. A planned move with a professional removals company offers:

• Efficient packing and loading that protects equipment and furniture
• Reduced risk of staff injuries and health & safety issues
• Clear accountability and fully insured transport
• Minimal disruption to your business operations

While a casual man-and-van may look cheaper on paper, the risk to critical equipment, data and staff time often makes it a false economy.

Insurance and Professional Standards

We take our responsibilities seriously. Man with Van Surrey operates with:

• Goods in transit insurance – covering your office contents while they are being moved.
• Public liability cover – protecting you and your premises in the unlikely event of accidental damage.
• Trained moving teams – staff are experienced in safe lifting, handling IT equipment and working in live office environments.

We follow recognised industry best practice for packing, lifting and vehicle loading, and we are happy to work with your own risk assessments and building regulations.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Every move is carried out with care. We use floor protection, furniture blankets and specialist wrapping where required, and we label everything clearly to avoid confusion at the new site. Confidential documents are kept in sealed crates or boxes as agreed.

We are conscious of our environmental responsibilities. Wherever practical we use reusable plastic crates, recycle packaging materials and plan efficient routes to reduce unnecessary mileage. Office furniture that you no longer need can often be redirected to recycling or reuse schemes rather than going straight to landfill.

Real-World Use Cases

• Office relocation – moving a 20-person office from Guildford to Woking over a weekend, including full packing, dismantling desks and IT handling.
• Internal office reorganisation – shifting departments between floors in an Epsom building, with minimal disruption to day-to-day operations.
• Urgent moves – helping a small business relocate at short notice due to lease issues, with same-week packing and transport.
• Hybrid working changes – downsizing office space and moving equipment to staff home offices across Surrey.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do office removals in Surrey cost?

The cost of an office move in Surrey depends on the size of your workspace, the volume of furniture and equipment, access at both properties, distance travelled and whether you require packing services. Smaller office moves may be completed in a single day at a fixed price, while larger relocations are often quoted on a project basis. After a survey, we provide a clear written quote detailing exactly what is included, so you can budget confidently and avoid unexpected extras.

Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?

Where our schedule allows, we can assist with same-day or short-notice office moves in Surrey. Availability depends on vehicle and crew scheduling, as well as the scale of your relocation. For urgent moves, it helps if you can supply photos, an inventory and access details quickly so we can assess feasibility. While larger projects are best planned in advance, we will always be honest about what can be achieved safely at short notice without compromising on care and protection.

What insurance cover do you provide for office removals?

We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your office contents while they are being moved between locations, and public liability insurance in case of accidental damage to property or injury to third parties. These policies sit alongside our careful working practices and trained staff. During the quotation stage, we will explain the key points of cover and any limits that apply. If you have particularly high-value or specialist items, let us know so we can ensure they are properly accounted for and, if necessary, listed separately.

What is included in your office removals service?

Our standard office removals service includes a pre-move discussion or survey, supply of vehicles, a trained removals team, protective equipment for furniture and premises, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. We can also provide additional services such as full or part packing, dismantling and reassembly of desks, crate hire and short-term storage if required. Everything that is included or optional will be set out clearly in your written quote so you can choose the level of support that best suits your business.

How is your service different from a basic man-and-van?

While a basic man-and-van may simply supply a driver and vehicle, our office removals service is fully planned and supported by professional, trained crews. We carry full insurance, conduct surveys for larger moves, provide proper packing materials and protect your premises and equipment. Our focus is on minimising downtime and risk to your business, not just transporting items from A to B. For offices, where IT, documents and staff time are critical, this structured, accountable approach offers far greater reassurance.

How far in advance should we book our office move?

For most office relocations, we recommend contacting us at least four to six weeks before your preferred move date. This allows time for surveys, planning, crate delivery and staff communication. Larger or multi-phase projects may benefit from even earlier engagement. That said, we understand that leases and circumstances can change quickly, so we always do our best to accommodate shorter timescales where our diary allows. The sooner you get in touch, the more options we will have to shape the move around your operational needs.
