What Our Furniture Removals Service Includes
Our furniture removals service is designed to take the weight off your shoulders. Whether you are moving around Twickenham, elsewhere in London, or further across the UK, we can tailor the service to your needs.
Core Furniture Removals Service
Typical moves include:
- Household furniture removals – sofas, armchairs, beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs, sideboards, chests of drawers and more.
- Office furniture removals – desks, filing cabinets, boardroom tables, office chairs, reception furniture and storage units.

All furniture is wrapped and protected before it leaves your property, then positioned where you want it in your new home or premises.

Our Step-by-Step Furniture Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with basic details: where you’re moving from and to, what needs moving, and your ideal dates. We’ll ask a few clarifying questions and provide a clear, no-obligation estimate. For straightforward moves, this can often be done the same day.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger or more complex moves, we carry out a short survey. This can be virtual (video call and photos) or in person. We assess access, parking, staircases, lifts, and the volume of furniture. This allows us to allocate the right vehicle, team size and protective materials, and to confirm a fixed, written quotation.
3. Packing & Preparation
On moving day – or earlier if you’ve booked packing – we carefully prepare your items. We can provide:
- Full packing service – we pack smaller items and protect furniture.
- Part packing service – you pack most items; we handle fragile or bulky pieces.
- Packing materials only – boxes, tape, wrap and covers if you prefer to pack yourself.
Furniture is wrapped with blankets, covers or other appropriate protection before being moved.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained team load your furniture in a safe, methodical order, securing everything inside the vehicle to minimise movement in transit. We use floor protection where needed and take care around corners, bannisters and doorways. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while on the road.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload and place each item in the rooms you specify. Where we’ve dismantled furniture, we reassemble it as agreed. Before we leave, we check that you’re happy with the placement and that all agreed items have been delivered.
Transparent Furniture Removals Pricing
We believe in straightforward, transparent pricing. Costs are based on:
- Volume and type of furniture
- Distance between properties
- Access, parking and floor levels
- Services required (for example, packing, disassembly, storage)
- Day of the week and time of year
You’ll receive a clear written quote detailing what is included, any optional extras, and how long we expect the move to take. We don’t add unexpected charges on the day; if circumstances change, we’ll always discuss options with you first.
Why Choose Professional Furniture Removals Over DIY
Moving furniture yourself or using a casual man-and-van can seem cheaper, but it often leads to damage, delays and stress. Professional removals offer:
- Experience – handling awkward, heavy or fragile items safely.
- Correct equipment – dollies, straps, covers and protective materials.
- Insurance – if something does go wrong, you’re protected.
- Planning – a structured schedule that fits around you and reduces downtime.
- Health and safety – reducing the risk of injury from lifting and carrying.
With Twickenham Movers, you get a reliable, professional team that turns up on time, treats your property with respect and works efficiently from start to finish.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your belongings are important, and we treat them that way. Our service includes:
- Goods in transit insurance – covering your furniture while it’s being moved between properties.
- Public liability cover – protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage to buildings or third parties.
- Trained moving teams – staff are trained in safe lifting, packing, loading and customer care.
We follow industry best practice for wrapping, handling and securing items, and we continually review our processes to maintain high standards.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We place a strong emphasis on care and responsibility throughout every move. Furniture is wrapped with appropriate protection; floors, doors and bannisters are covered where necessary; and we work methodically to avoid scuffs and scratches.
We are also conscious of our environmental impact. Wherever possible we reuse durable protective materials, offer reusable crates for some moves, and plan routes efficiently to minimise unnecessary mileage. If you have unwanted furniture in reasonable condition, we can often help arrange delivery to local charities or recycling facilities rather than landfill.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does furniture removal in Twickenham cost?
Costs depend on the volume and type of furniture, distance between addresses, access, and any additional services such as packing or disassembly. Smaller local moves may be charged on a simple hourly rate with a minimum booking period, while larger moves are usually quoted at a fixed price following a survey. We’ll always provide a clear written quotation before you commit, with no hidden extras. The best way to get an accurate figure is to contact us with a list of items and your addresses.
Can you handle same-day or urgent furniture removals?
Yes, where our schedule allows we can provide same-day or short-notice furniture removals in Twickenham and nearby areas. Availability depends on existing bookings and the size of your move, so it’s always helpful to call us as early in the day as possible. For urgent moves we may suggest a smaller team or multiple trips if that’s the fastest way to get you moved safely. We’ll be honest about what’s achievable and agree a realistic plan with you.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Your furniture is covered by our goods in transit insurance while it is being moved between properties, and we also carry public liability cover for additional peace of mind. Our aim is always to prevent damage in the first place through careful packing and handling, but it’s reassuring to know you’re protected. We’ll explain the key terms and any limits or exclusions before your move, and we’re happy to answer specific questions about individual items.
What’s included in your furniture removals service?
As standard, our service includes a suitably sized vehicle, a trained removals team, protective blankets and covers, loading, transport, and unloading into the rooms you specify. At your request we can add services such as packing, furniture disassembly and reassembly, provision of packing materials, and short-term storage. Your quote will clearly set out what is included so you know exactly what to expect on the day. If you’re unsure whether a particular task is covered, just ask when booking.
How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van is often focused on transport only, with limited protection for your items and no or very basic insurance. A professional removals service like ours provides trained staff, proper planning, protective materials, and full insurance cover. We assess access, bring the right equipment, and know how to handle heavy or awkward furniture without damaging your property. This usually means a smoother move, fewer breakages, and far less stress, especially for larger or more complex jobs.
How far in advance should I book my furniture removal?
For most moves, booking 2–4 weeks in advance is ideal, especially if you’re moving at month-end or on a Friday, when demand is highest. However, we understand that completion dates and tenancy changes can shift, so we try to be as flexible as possible. If your dates are uncertain, we can often pencil you in and confirm closer to the time. For small or local moves, we may have availability with only a few days’ notice, so it’s always worth contacting us.
