Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quotation
Everything starts with a conversation. You tell us about your current office, new premises, timescales and any critical equipment or departments. We then provide a clear, written quotation outlining what is included, estimated timings and any optional services such as packing or out-of-hours working.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
To plan properly, we carry out a professional survey of your office. This can be virtual (video call with a guided walk-through) or onsite, depending on the scale and complexity of the move. We assess access, lifts or stairs, parking, IT equipment, and any dismantling or reassembly required, and agree a realistic schedule with you.
3. Packing & Preparation
We can provide a full packing service, a part-pack service, or just materials if your staff prefer to pack themselves.
- Full packing – our trained team packs all non-IT items, crates documents, labels workstations and departments for accurate placement.
- Part packing – we handle furniture, fragile and heavy items; your team packs their own desks and personal effects.
- Self packing – we supply crates, boxes and labels, plus clear instructions on how to prepare.
We can also schedule packing outside normal working hours to reduce disruption.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our trained crew arrives on time, protects floors and doorways, and follows the agreed plan. Desks and larger furniture are dismantled where necessary, then wrapped and loaded in sequence. All goods are carried in purpose-built removals vehicles, covered by goods in transit insurance for your peace of mind.
5. Unloading, Placement & Reassembly
At your new office, we unload and place items exactly where specified on your floor plan. Desks, tables and other furniture are reassembled, crates are positioned by team or department, and we work alongside your IT provider if needed. We do a final walk-through with you to confirm everything is in place before we leave.
Transparent Office Removals Pricing in Brent
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Office removals costs are based on:
- Size of your office and volume of furniture/equipment
- Access at both properties (stairs, lifts, distance to vehicle)
- Distance between locations
- Required services – packing, dismantling/reassembly, out-of-hours work
- Number of movers and vehicles needed
Once we have completed the survey, you receive a written quote that sets out all charges clearly. If your requirements change, we will update the quote so you always know where you stand.
Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY or Man-and-Van
Moving an office is different from moving a few boxes. Using a professional removals company like Brent Movers offers several advantages:
- Structured planning to minimise downtime and disruption
- Trained teams who know how to handle IT equipment, heavy furniture and tight stairwells
- Appropriate goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
- Proper vehicles, trolleys and protective materials for safe handling
- Clear accountability and a single point of contact throughout
A casual man-and-van may seem cheaper, but if equipment is damaged, staff are delayed or access is mishandled, the real cost to your business can be far higher.
Insurance and Professional Standards
As a responsible removals company, we work to high professional standards and take our duty of care seriously.
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your office furniture and equipment while in our vehicles, subject to policy terms.
- Public liability cover – protects against damage to buildings or third-party property during the move.
- Trained moving teams – our staff are experienced in office moves, manual handling and safe working practices.
We are happy to provide copies of our insurance certificates on request and to discuss any specific cover requirements for high-value items.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your office property as if it were our own. On every move we:
- Use padded covers for desks, cabinets and chairs
- Protect floors, lifts and doorways with appropriate coverings
- Secure IT equipment in padded crates or boxes
- Label everything clearly by department or room
We also work with sustainability in mind. We use reusable crates wherever practical, recycle cardboard and packing materials, and plan routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage. If you are clearing an office, we can help arrange responsible disposal or recycling of unwanted furniture.
Real-World Office Removals Scenarios
Office Relocation Within Brent
Many of our clients move between buildings or business parks within Brent. We can carry out moves in stages, floor by floor, or over a weekend to keep your business operating smoothly.
Combined Office and Home Office Moves
For owners and senior staff, we often combine an office relocation with a home move or home office setup. This can be more efficient and ensures all work-related items arrive together.
Urgent and Short-Notice Office Moves
Sometimes circumstances change quickly – lease issues, building works or rapid expansion. Where our schedule allows, we offer urgent and short-notice office removals in Brent, working flexibly to meet critical deadlines.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an office removal in Brent cost?
Costs vary depending on the size of your office, the volume of furniture and equipment, access at both properties, and the distance between them. Additional factors include whether you require packing, dismantling and reassembly, or out-of-hours working. After a survey, we provide a clear, itemised quotation so you know exactly what is included. We do not offer one-size-fits-all prices, because every office is different, but we always work to keep costs fair and transparent, and we will happily explain how your quote has been calculated.
Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?
Where our schedule allows, we can accommodate same-day or urgent office removals in Brent. The more notice you can give, the easier it is to allocate the right team and vehicles and to plan access with your building management. For urgent moves, we focus on essential workstations and equipment first, then arrange follow-up visits for non-essential items if required. If you have a time-critical move, contact us as soon as possible so we can assess what is achievable and propose a practical plan.
What insurance cover do you provide for office removals?
Your goods are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicles, subject to policy terms and declared values. We also hold public liability cover in case of accidental damage to buildings or third-party property during the move. Our team is trained to minimise risk, but insurance offers additional peace of mind. We can supply copies of our policies and explain the key points before you book. If you have particularly high-value equipment, we recommend discussing specific requirements with us and, if needed, your own insurer.
What is included in your office removals service?
Our standard office removals service includes a pre-move survey, provision of a written quote, loading, transport and unloading of your office furniture, equipment and packed contents. We place items in the correct rooms or departments at your new premises and reassemble furniture that we have dismantled as part of the move. Optional extras include full or part packing, supply of crates and materials, out-of-hours or weekend moves, and assistance with clearing or recycling unwanted items. All work is carried out by our professional, trained moving teams.
How is your service different from a man-and-van?
A man-and-van may be suitable for very small, simple moves, but office relocations usually require more structure. With Brent Movers you get planned surveys, detailed scheduling, trained staff, appropriate equipment, and full insurance coverage. We coordinate with building management, consider fire exits, lifts and loading bays, and label and place items according to your floor plan. This reduces downtime, protects your equipment and minimises disruption to staff. In short, we provide a managed service rather than just transport, which is especially important when a whole business is involved.
How far in advance should I book an office removal?
For most office moves, we recommend booking at least four to six weeks in advance, especially if you need a specific date, weekend move or phased relocation. This gives time for surveys, planning, packing and liaison with your building management and IT providers. However, we understand that not every move is planned that far ahead. If you are on a tight timescale, contact us as soon as you can. We will check availability, explain what is realistic within the time frame and help prioritise key areas to keep your business operational.
