Our Step-by-Step Furniture Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Clear, No-Obligation Quote
Contact Man with Van Aldwych by phone, email or online form with the details of your move. We’ll ask about addresses, access, floors, lifts, parking, and the items you need moved. Based on this information, we provide a clear, itemised quote with no hidden extras, so you know exactly what to expect before you book.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger moves or awkward properties in Aldwych, we recommend a quick survey. This can be done by video call or an onsite visit. We assess stairways, lifts, door widths, parking restrictions, and any furniture that may need dismantling. This helps us send the right vehicle, the right number of movers and the right equipment on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
On the day, our team arrives on time and prepares your furniture for transport. We use quality protective materials such as blankets, shrink wrap, mattress covers and corner protectors. Where agreed, we provide:
- Furniture dismantling and reassembly (beds, wardrobes, tables, etc.)
- Careful wrapping of delicate surfaces such as glass and polished wood
- Labelling of items and components to ensure everything is reassembled correctly
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained team loads your furniture systematically, securing items with straps and using blankets to prevent movement and scuffs in transit. We plan the best route through Aldwych and central London traffic, allowing for loading bays, timed restrictions and bus lanes. All journeys are covered by goods in transit insurance for your peace of mind.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload and place furniture in the rooms you specify. Where agreed, we reassemble dismantled items and position them so you can start using your space straight away. Before leaving, we check that everything has arrived, is in the right place, and you’re satisfied with the move.
Transparent Pricing for Furniture Removals in Aldwych
Our pricing is straightforward and explained in advance. We typically charge based on:
- The volume and type of furniture
- Number of movers required
- Distance between addresses
- Access factors (stairs, lifts, long carries, parking difficulties)
- Optional extras such as packing, dismantling, or evening/weekend moves
We offer both fixed-price quotes for defined moves and hourly rates for smaller or flexible jobs. There are no hidden congestion, fuel or staircase surcharges added last minute – anything relevant is included in your written quote from the start.
Why Choose Professional Furniture Removals Over DIY
Moving furniture yourself or relying on a casual man-and-van can seem cheaper, but often brings higher risk and more stress. With Man with Van Aldwych you benefit from:
- Professional handling techniques that protect your furniture and your property
- Fully insured transport with goods in transit and public liability cover
- Proper equipment: trolleys, blankets, straps and tools for dismantling
- Reliable timing and clear communication – no last-minute cancellations
- Experienced navigation of Aldwych’s parking and access challenges
This reduces the risk of damaged furniture, scratched walls, personal injury, or fines from parking and access issues.
Insurance & Professional Standards
As a reputable removals operator, we work to clear professional standards:
- Goods in transit insurance covering your furniture while it is being moved
- Public liability cover for work in and around your property
- Trained moving teams experienced with heavy and awkward items
- Routine vehicle checks and maintenance for safe, reliable transport
- Written confirmations of booking, pricing and key details
If you have high-value or specialist items, tell us when you enquire so we can confirm appropriate cover and handling methods.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your furniture and property as if it were our own. Our team uses floor protectors, door covers and clean removal blankets to minimise any risk of damage. Items are wrapped and secured properly, not simply stacked in the van. Where possible, we use reusable protective materials and optimise our routes to reduce unnecessary mileage, helping to lower our environmental footprint in and around Aldwych.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do furniture removals in Aldwych cost?
The cost depends mainly on how much furniture you have, access at each property and the distance between addresses. Smaller jobs, such as moving a few items locally, are often priced on an hourly basis with a minimum booking time. Larger flat or house moves are usually quoted at a fixed price after we’ve assessed the volume and any special requirements. We’ll always provide a clear, written quote before you commit, so you understand exactly what’s included and can budget with confidence.
Can you do same-day or urgent furniture removals?
We can often accommodate same-day or short-notice moves in Aldwych, especially for smaller furniture jobs, depending on existing bookings and vehicle availability. If you need an urgent move, contact us as early as possible with details of what needs moving, from where to where, and any timing constraints. We’ll let you know immediately if we can help, provide a realistic arrival window, and explain any additional charges that may apply for out-of-hours or emergency work before you decide to go ahead.
What insurance cover do you provide?
All furniture moves with Man with Van Aldwych are covered by goods in transit insurance, which protects your items while they are being transported. We also hold public liability insurance for work in and around your property. This is designed to give you peace of mind if something unexpected happens. For particularly high-value or specialist items, we may need to note them separately on the booking, so please mention these during your enquiry and we’ll confirm coverage and any conditions in writing.
What is included in your furniture removals service?
Our standard service includes supplying the vehicle, fuel, professional movers and all normal loading, securing, transport and unloading of your furniture between agreed addresses. We provide protective blankets and straps as standard, and can add dismantling, reassembly and packing services if requested. Placement of furniture in your new property is included; we don’t just leave everything at the door. Any extra services or unusual requirements are discussed and itemised in your quote so you know precisely what’s covered.
How is a professional removals service different from a casual man-and-van?
A professional removals service like Man with Van Aldwych offers planned, insured and structured moves. Our trained team uses the right equipment, follows safe lifting techniques, and understands how to protect both furniture and property. We provide written quotes, confirmed bookings and proper insurance. Casual man-and-van services may be cheaper up front, but often lack cover, reliability and experience with complex access or larger moves. For anything more than a very small job, a professional service usually proves better value and far less stressful.
How far in advance should I book my furniture removal?
For planned moves, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, especially if you need a specific date or time, or are moving at month-end or on a weekend. This gives us time to arrange parking, surveys and any extra services you require. However, we understand that not every move is planned, so we always keep some flexibility for short-notice work. It’s always worth contacting us, even at the last minute, to see what we can do.
