Items We Normally Exclude

For safety and insurance reasons, some items cannot be moved or need special arrangements:

• Illegal or stolen goods
• Large amounts of cash, jewellery or other high-value personal items
• Live animals (including pets and livestock)

If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise during the survey so there are no surprises on moving day.

Our Step-by-Step House Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Clear Quote

You contact us by phone or form with brief details: current address, destination, property size, ideal move date and any access constraints. We then provide an initial guide price or arrange a survey. All quotes are itemised and transparent, so you understand exactly what is included and what any optional extras cost.

2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite

We carry out a virtual video survey or visit your property to assess volume, access, parking, stairs, lifts and any fragile or specialist items. This allows us to choose the right vehicle, plan the crew size and identify any special equipment required (such as wardrobe boxes or mattress covers). After the survey, we confirm a fixed, written quotation.

3. Packing & Preparation

You can choose between:

• Full packing service – our professional team carefully packs your entire home using quality packing materials.
• Part packing service – we pack fragile or high-value items; you pack the rest.
• Self-packing – we supply boxes and materials; you pack at your own pace.

We label boxes clearly by room and contents, dismantle agreed furniture and protect mattresses, sofas and other items with covers and wrapping.

4. Loading & Transport

On moving day, our trained crew arrives at the agreed time. We protect floors and bannisters where needed, then load your belongings in a safe, logical order. Fragile items are wrapped and secured; furniture is padded and strapped. Your goods travel in our purpose-built removals vehicles, covered by goods in transit insurance for added peace of mind.

5. Unloading & Placement

At your new property, we unload room by room, following your instructions. Furniture is reassembled if this was agreed, and boxes are placed in the correct rooms to make unpacking easier. We complete a final walk-through with you to ensure everything is in the right place before we leave.

Transparent Pricing for House Removals

Every move is different, so we price based on:

• Volume of goods (number of rooms and contents)
• Distance between addresses
• Access and parking at both properties
• Level of packing service required
• Any additional services (storage, dismantling/reassembly, disposal)

We provide written, no-obligation quotations with no hidden extras. Any potential additional costs (for example, long carries or waiting time linked to key release) are clearly explained in advance. Our goal is to give you a fair price and a service that represents good value, rather than the cheapest possible cut-down option.

Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van

Moving yourself or booking an unregulated man-and-van can appear cheaper, but often costs more in time, damage and stress. With Twickenham Movers you get:

• Trained crews who know how to handle heavy and fragile items safely
• Correct equipment and vehicles for safe lifting and secure transport
• Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
• Planned, scheduled service with proper documentation
• Reduced risk of injury to you, your family or your property

For many clients, avoiding damage to furniture, walls, staircases and appliances more than repays the cost of using a professional removals company.

Insurance & Professional Standards

Twickenham Movers operates to recognised industry standards. We are:

• Fully insured with comprehensive goods in transit cover
• Protected by public liability insurance for work in and around your property
• Staffed by trained, uniformed movers experienced in UK house removals

We explain our insurance cover and terms clearly before you book, so you understand what is covered, any limits, and how claims are handled in the unlikely event of an issue.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

We treat your belongings as if they were our own. To protect them, we use:

• Reusable padded blankets and furniture covers
• Mattress and sofa protectors
• Double-walled boxes and specialist cartons for fragile items
• Protective floor coverings where needed

We are also conscious of our environmental impact. Where possible we:

• Reuse cartons and packing materials in good condition
• Offer collection of used boxes for recycling
• Plan routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage

From three-bedroom houses in Twickenham to larger properties in the surrounding areas, we manage full home moves, including packing, dismantling beds and wardrobes, and setting up furniture at the new address.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a house removal in Twickenham cost?

The cost depends on the volume of your belongings, the distance between properties, access at each address and the level of service required. A small local flat move may cost significantly less than a larger family home moving further afield. We always recommend a survey so we can provide a fixed, written quotation tailored to your move. There are no hidden fees, and we clearly explain any potential additional charges such as waiting for keys or long walks from the vehicle.

Can you handle same-day or urgent house removals?

Where our schedule allows, we do our best to accommodate same-day or short-notice moves, especially within the local Twickenham area. Availability will depend on crew and vehicle scheduling, so it is always best to call us as soon as you know you need to move. Even for urgent jobs, we still follow a structured process: quick assessment, clear quotation and confirmation of what we can realistically achieve without compromising safety or protection of your belongings.

What insurance cover do you provide?

Your belongings are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our care and being transported. We also hold public liability insurance for work in and around your property. These policies are designed to cover you in the unlikely event of damage or loss. We will explain the key terms, limits and exclusions before you book, and provide our conditions in writing so you know exactly how you are protected and what steps to take if you ever need to make a claim.

What is included in a professional house removals service?

A standard house removal usually includes supply of the removals vehicle, a trained crew, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. You can add optional services such as full or part packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, provision of packing materials and short-term storage. During the survey we will agree exactly what is included, from protection materials to room placement of furniture, so the quotation reflects your needs and there are no surprises on moving day.

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

A casual man-and-van often offers basic transport only, with limited or no insurance, variable training and little planning. A professional removals company like Twickenham Movers provides structured surveys, written quotes, trained staff, appropriate vehicles and full insurance cover. We bring protective materials, understand safe lifting techniques and plan your move in detail. This reduces the risk of damage to your belongings and property and gives you a clear point of contact and accountability throughout the move.

How far in advance should I book my house removal?

We recommend booking as soon as your moving date is reasonably certain, particularly if you are moving at month-end, during school holidays or at weekends, when demand is higher. Many clients book two to four weeks in advance, but we will always try to help with shorter notice when our schedule allows. Early booking gives you more choice of dates and allows time for packing, arranging parking suspensions and planning any additional services you may require.
