Who Our Same Day Removals Service Is For

Homeowners

If your completion date has moved forward, the chain has suddenly aligned or you’ve had a last‑minute change of plan, we can step in to carry out a same day house removal. We handle full and part moves, including lofts, garages and sheds where time allows.

Renters

Late notice from a landlord, end of tenancy issues or unexpected circumstances often require moving quickly. We regularly help renters in Putney move out, transfer to new flats or place items into storage at short notice.

Landlords

We assist landlords who need properties cleared or part‑cleared urgently between tenancies. Our team can remove furniture and belongings in a controlled, documented way and transport them to your chosen destination.

Businesses

From small offices to local shops, we support same day office removals and urgent relocations. We can move desks, IT equipment, stock and archive boxes quickly while taking care to minimise disruption.

Students

Putney’s student population often needs to move fast at the end of term or when accommodation changes fall through. Our same day student removals are ideal for room‑sized and small flat moves on a budget.

Our Step‑by‑Step Same Day Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quick Quote

Call or message us as early as possible. We’ll ask a few focused questions: addresses, access details, number of rooms, key items and timing constraints. Based on this, we provide a clear indication of cost and availability. For same day work, speed is important, but we always aim to be transparent and realistic about what can be achieved.

2. Fast Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For many same day moves we carry out a rapid virtual survey using photos or video. Where practical and nearby, we may visit in person. The goal is to confirm volume, access (stairs, lifts, parking) and any specialist items. This helps us send the right vehicle size and number of movers, reducing the risk of delays.

3. Packing & Preparation

Ideally, you’ll have items boxed and ready. However, we can offer same day packing assistance for an additional charge, subject to time. We bring basic packing materials, blankets and straps. We’ll ask you to keep essentials, documents and valuables with you, while we focus on furniture, boxes and general belongings.

4. Loading & Transport

Our trained team loads methodically, using protective blankets and securing everything to avoid movement in transit. We take special care with fragile items you have identified. Once loaded, we travel directly to the new address or storage facility, choosing sensible routes based on traffic and access.

5. Unloading & Placement

At the destination, we unload into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it so you can settle quickly. We re‑assemble basic items that were taken apart by us (where agreed), and we’ll check you’re satisfied with the placement before we leave.

Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals

Same day removals in Putney are priced fairly, with clear explanations before any work starts. Typical pricing factors include:

• Volume of goods and type of items
• Number of movers required
• Distance between addresses
• Access difficulties (stairs only, long carries, parking restrictions)
• Additional services – packing, dismantling/assembly, waste disposal

For urgent same day requests, there may be a premium compared to pre‑booked moves, particularly at peak times. We’ll always outline rates clearly and provide a written confirmation of the agreed costs so there are no surprises.

Why Choose Professional Same Day Removals Over DIY

Attempting a last‑minute move yourself, or with an informal man‑and‑van, can quickly become stressful and risky. With Man with Van Putney you benefit from:

• Professional handling of furniture and fragile items
• Appropriate equipment – trolleys, blankets, straps and tools
• Trained movers used to working under time pressure
• Coordination and planning, even for short notice jobs
• Fully insured service – for your belongings and for public liability

DIY moves often underestimate time, vehicle size and the physical effort involved. A professional service reduces the risk of damage to your belongings and to the properties you’re moving between.

Insurance and Professional Standards

We run Man with Van Putney to the standards we’d expect if someone were moving our own homes or businesses. That means:

• Goods in transit insurance to protect your belongings while they are on the move
• Public liability cover in case of accidental damage to third‑party property or injury
• Trained moving teams who understand lifting techniques, loading methods and property protection
• Regularly maintained vehicles kept clean and presentable

We’ll explain the main terms of cover in everyday language and highlight any specific exclusions so you know exactly where you stand.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Even when moving at short notice, care is non‑negotiable. We protect your property by:

• Using protective blankets, floor covers and door protectors where appropriate
• Careful wrapping of delicate items, pictures and mirrors where time allows
• Securing loads properly to avoid movement and damage in transit

We also work with sustainability in mind:

• Re‑using quality packing materials where safe and hygienic
• Planning routes to minimise unnecessary mileage
• Donating suitable unwanted items through local channels on request (by agreement)

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do same day removals in Putney cost?

Costs depend on the volume of items, distance, access and how many movers are required. Same day work can attract a premium compared with moves booked in advance, particularly at busy times or evenings. We usually price either by the hour (with a minimum charge) or as a fixed price once we’ve assessed the job. During your enquiry we’ll ask for key details, then give you a clear estimate before confirming the booking so you know what to expect.

Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?

We do our best to accommodate genuine urgent moves, but availability depends on how busy we are and the size of the job. Smaller flat, room and office moves are often easier to fit in at short notice than full houses. The earlier in the day you contact us, the better chance we have of arranging a slot and the right size vehicle. If we can’t meet your timing exactly, we’ll offer the nearest realistic option and be honest about what’s achievable.

Are my belongings insured during a same day move?

Yes. Our goods in transit insurance covers your belongings while they are being transported in our vehicles, and our public liability cover provides protection in case of accidental damage to third‑party property or injury. As with any insurance, there are terms and exclusions – for example, certain high‑value or fragile items may require special handling or prior notification. We’ll explain the key points when you book, and you’re always welcome to ask for clarification in writing.

What’s included in your same day removals service?

Our standard service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional moving team, loading, transport and unloading into your new property or storage. We bring blankets, straps and basic tools for simple dismantling where agreed. Optional extras include packing, supply of boxes and materials, furniture assembly and disposal of unwanted items, subject to time and regulations. During the quote we’ll confirm exactly what’s included for your particular move so you can compare like‑for‑like with other options.

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

A casual man‑and‑van can be suitable for very small, simple jobs, but it usually won’t offer the same level of planning, equipment or protection. With a removals service like ours you get trained staff, fully insured operations, proper load securing and a structured process designed for homes and businesses. We’re used to handling awkward staircases, tight access and fragile items. That reduces the chance of damage, delays and unexpected costs, which is especially important on a time‑critical same day move.

How far in advance should I book a same day removal?

By nature, same day moves are short notice, but contacting us as early as you can on the day makes a big difference. Morning enquiries are easier to schedule than late‑afternoon calls, and giving us accurate information speeds up the quote and planning. If you suspect you might need to move urgently in the next day or two, it’s worth speaking to us in advance so we can pencil in provisional options and advise you on how to prepare.
