Putney
Wherever you're moving from or to in Putney, our home removal service is easy to book. All you need to do is:
If your home has its own off-street parking, make sure we can reach it on moving day. Many residential streets in Putney have on-street parking bays only, so you'll need to book a suspension or the loading and unloading will take longer. It's worth doing this at both addresses. To apply for a suspension, contact the local council, where you can find more on what to do.
We've put together a home mover's checklist for Putney residents to use in the run-up to a move. We know residential moves in London well, so use it to help everything go smoothly.

Putney
Putney is a fashionable part of southwest London, and its riverside setting makes it an attractive choice for many. It's especially popular with professionals commuting to other parts of London, but there are plenty of family homes and options for students or older couples looking to downsize too.
Putney has excellent transport links, which can make moving into the area easier. The restricted parking on many streets is useful for residents once they have a permit, though you may need to plan ahead so there's room for the moving van. Wandsworth Council manages parking restrictions in Putney, so contact them if you want to arrange a suspension in front of your new property.
Get in touch with the council at least five days before you expect to move in. Bear in mind that suspensions can only be applied where there are restricted parking bays.
Putney
Some people don't have time to pack before a move, and others would rather leave it to professionals. Either way, we offer a packing service in Putney to help you prepare. Why make a chore of it when we can help?
Our man and van service in Putney suits office relocations as well as house moves. Why pay more for a move from one part of Putney to another when we can handle it and charge only for the time it takes? Our hourly rates work for small companies and larger businesses alike, and we can handle other commercial premises too.
As a removals firm covering all of Putney, we handle full and part moves. We can shift just one or two big items, such as beds, mattresses, sofas or wardrobes. We also take on garden furniture removals and other jobs for clients who aren't moving but still need professional lifting and handling.
If you don't prepare for a move, the day can become more of a headache than it needs to be. We're on hand to help with loading and unloading and to offer advice. One thing that helps is good packing materials, which we can supply so you know they're of the right standard for a busy area like Putney.
We're well connected with storage firms across London, including in the SW15 postcode district. If you need goods moved into storage in Putney for the short or long term, we can help in a few ways:
No hidden fees, a simple hourly rate based on the crew you need. Weekends are charged at +10%.
Putney
When a smaller move is called for, our man and van service is just the ticket. It's more flexible and cheaper than many services in South London, and it's ideal if you have a couple of large items to move while you handle the rest yourself. Need a bed, wardrobe or sofa shifted? Take a look at our competitive rates. The service suits people moving from furnished flats and residents of house shares, among others. It's perfect for:
From East Putney Station to Barnes, we're often asked to carry out house clearances in Putney. We can do this on your behalf even if you're not present. Sometimes landlords ask us to clear a property at the end of a tenancy; we also do this work following a bereavement, on behalf of the family. Either way, you can expect the same high standards.
With colleges and university campuses around Putney, it's a popular area for students. Our man and van service is geared up for their needs. Most students only have one or two large items to move, so a single man and van is usually enough. And because we charge by the hour, it's affordable too.
With a strong track record of moving valuable works of art and irreplaceable antiques, we're a firm you can trust with one-of-a-kind belongings. We handle art and antiques that have been sold, that need moving between properties, or that form part of a house move.
Taking furniture apart and rebuilding it is part of every move we handle in Putney. We also offer flat pack assembly on its own, if you've bought something online or in a showroom, we can carry it upstairs and put it together for you at a fair price.

We charge a simple hourly rate rather than a fixed day rate, so you only pay for the time your move actually takes. One man and a van is £55 + VAT per hour, two men and a van £75 + VAT per hour, and three men and a van £95 + VAT per hour. As a guide, a typical two-bedroom move in Putney takes around five to six hours including travel. For an accurate figure, ask us for a free no-obligation quote or a video assessment of your property.
Most two-bedroom properties take two to three hours to load and one to two hours to unload, plus the driving time between the two addresses. Access makes a real difference: stairs, lifts and how far the van has to park from your door all add time. Tell us about both properties when you book and we will give you a realistic estimate rather than an optimistic one.
As much as you can give us, booking as soon as your date is confirmed is the surest way to get the slot you want. That said, we keep our schedule as flexible as we can and we regularly take on moves at a few days' notice, so it is always worth asking even if your date is close.
If you have a driveway or off-street parking at both addresses, no. Otherwise we strongly recommend one: the closer the van can park, the faster the job goes and the less it costs you. Suspensions are arranged through the local council for Putney and usually need several working days' notice, so apply as soon as your date is fixed, and remember to arrange one at the address you are moving to as well.
Yes. We carry £30,000 of goods-in-transit cover and £1m of public liability insurance as standard. If you are moving something worth more than the standard cover, tell us in advance and we will extend it for your job. Most household contents policies exclude damage in transit, which is exactly the gap this cover fills.
No. Most customers prefer to be there, but we can carry out the whole move in your absence as long as we have access to both properties, keys, entry codes and alarm details arranged in advance. Tell us where things should go and we will unload into the right rooms.
Yes. Packing is a standard service charged at the same hourly rate, and we can supply boxes, tape and protective materials ahead of the day. We can pack a whole property or just the awkward parts, kitchens, glassware and artwork are the usual candidates.
We dismantle and reassemble beds and flat-pack furniture as a matter of course, and we can build items for your new home too. Please disconnect washing machines and dishwashers, and defrost the fridge and freezer, the day before if you can. If you would rather not, ask us and a member of the team will do it on the day.
Yes. We run 3.5t Luton box vans rather than small transit vans, and the service scales, for a larger property we simply put more crew and more vehicles on the job. Three- and four-bedroom houses are routine work for us.
Yes. Storage is useful when your dates do not line up, when you are downsizing, or when you would rather move in stages. We can store what you do not need immediately and deliver it on to your new address when you are ready for it.
We take a 25% deposit for domestic moves and 50% for business moves to secure your date. The balance is due on completion, once everything has been unloaded at your new address. We accept credit and debit cards.
Yes. Weekend availability is more limited and is charged at a 10% surcharge, so a midweek move is usually better value, but if Saturday or Sunday is the only date that works, book early and we will do our best to fit you in.
Moving dates slip; we understand that. Change or cancel with 11 or more days' notice and there is no charge, if you cancel outright, your deposit is returned within 10 working days. With 10 days' notice or fewer, the deposit covers the booking we have held for you.
