Piano Removals
Piano Removals in Haringey by Man and Van Haringey
Moving a piano safely needs more than just strength – it needs planning, technique and the right equipment. At Man and Van Haringey, we provide specialist piano removals across Haringey and the surrounding North London areas, carried out by experienced, trained movers who handle every instrument as if it were their own.
Specialist Piano Removal Services in Haringey
We move pianos for homes, schools, studios and venues throughout Haringey. Whether you are relocating a cherished family upright or a concert grand, our team understands the value – financial and sentimental – of your instrument.
Our piano removals service covers:
- Upright piano removals (including tall and studio uprights)
- Baby grand and grand piano removals
- Digital piano and stage piano moves
- Internal moves within the same property
- Short-distance and long-distance moves from Haringey
We use piano skids, padded covers, dollies, stair-climbers and protective wrapping to ensure safe movement in tight Haringey properties, from Victorian terraces and flats to modern apartments.
Local Piano Moving Expertise in Haringey
Based in Haringey, we know the local streets, parking restrictions and building layouts extremely well. This local knowledge makes your move smoother and helps us plan realistic access for larger instruments.
We regularly provide piano removals in:
- Wood Green, Turnpike Lane and Hornsey
- Crouch End, Muswell Hill and Highgate borders
- Tottenham, Seven Sisters and Stamford Hill edges
- Bounds Green, Harringay Ladder and Green Lanes
Knowing where loading bays, narrow streets and controlled parking zones are means fewer delays and a more efficient, predictable service.
Who Our Piano Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
If you are moving house and taking your piano with you, we coordinate with your main removals team or handle the whole move, ensuring the piano is properly protected, loaded and positioned in the new property.
Renters
Many Haringey flats have tight staircases and limited lifts. Our team assesses access in advance so your piano can be moved safely without damaging walls, floors or the instrument – helping you protect your deposit.
Landlords & Letting Agents
We assist with removing or relocating pianos left in rental properties, either for storage, sale or transfer to another address, with minimal disturbance to other residents and neighbours.
Businesses & Organisations
We move pianos for schools, churches, theatres, rehearsal rooms, hotels and music venues. Whether it is a permanent relocation or a temporary move for refurbishment, we plan around your schedule.
Students & Young Musicians
We help students moving into or out of Haringey accommodation who need a reliable but cost-conscious way to move uprights or digital pianos safely, often alongside other belongings.
What We Can and Cannot Move
Items Included in Our Piano Removals
- Upright pianos (all sizes)
- Baby grand and grand pianos
- Digital pianos, keyboards and stands
- Piano benches and stools
- Associated accessories (covers, pedals, music stands)
Items Typically Excluded
- Internal tuning or repairs (we can recommend local technicians)
- Moving pianos through unsafe or structurally unsound access
- Removal via crane or external hoist where not risk-assessed
- Non-piano hazardous items (fuel, gas bottles, chemicals)
If you are unsure whether your instrument or access can be accommodated, we will discuss this in detail during the survey stage.
Our Step-by-Step Piano Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us with basic details: piano type, current and destination addresses, floor levels and any access concerns. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on this information, including any additional equipment or staff required.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For many Haringey properties we can survey via photos or video. For more complex moves – such as grands, basements or multi-storey buildings – we may arrange a short onsite survey. This lets us assess staircases, turns, door widths and parking.
3. Packing & Preparation
On the day, we protect your piano and property before any lifting begins. We use padded covers, straps, floor protection and corner guards where required. For grands, we carefully remove and wrap the legs and lyre and secure the lid.
4. Loading & Transport
Your piano is loaded using proper lifting techniques and equipment, then secured in our vehicle with straps and cushioning to prevent movement in transit. Our fully insured vehicles are clean, purpose-equipped and driven by experienced staff.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination, we position the piano in your chosen room, making careful movements around floors, walls and furnishings. We reassemble grands as needed and check that the piano is stable and level. You may wish to arrange tuning after it has settled.
Transparent Piano Removal Pricing
We keep pricing straightforward and honest. Piano removal costs in Haringey depend on:
- Piano type and size (upright vs grand)
- Number of floors and staircases involved
- Access complexity (tight turns, limited lifts, long carries)
- Distance between addresses
- Any additional services (temporary storage, evening moves)
We provide a clear written quote before you book, detailing what is included so you know exactly what you are paying for. There are no hidden charges for standard protective materials or normal waiting times agreed in advance.
Why Use Professional Piano Movers Instead of DIY
Pianos are heavy, awkward and delicate. A typical upright can exceed 200kg, and grands more again. DIY attempts often lead to injuries, damage to properties or serious harm to the instrument itself.
By choosing professional piano movers you benefit from:
- Correct lifting techniques and team coordination
- Specialist equipment sized for Haringey properties
- Proper protection for polished finishes and internal mechanisms
- Goods in transit insurance should the unexpected happen
- Reduced risk to your back, walls, floors and the piano
General man-and-van services often lack this expertise and equipment. Our service is tailored specifically to pianos and other fragile, high-value items.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Your piano and property are protected throughout the move. We hold:
- Goods in transit insurance for your instrument while it is being moved
- Public liability cover for property and third-party protection
- Trained moving teams experienced in specialist handling
All work is carried out in line with recognised best practice for piano moving. We plan routes carefully, communicate clearly on the day and treat your home or premises with respect.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Every piano is wrapped and handled with care, with extra attention paid to polished wood, edges and pedals. We use reusable padded covers and high-quality strapping to minimise waste. Where additional packing is needed, we aim to choose materials that can be reused or recycled.
Our routes around Haringey are planned to reduce unnecessary mileage and time on the road, helping us limit fuel use while still delivering a reliable, punctual service.
Real-World Piano Removal Use Cases
Moving House with a Piano
We coordinate with your home move so the piano is collected and delivered at the right time, either as a separate specialist move or integrated into a wider removal. This reduces disruption and ensures the piano receives the attention it needs.
Office, School and Venue Relocations
For schools, studios and venues upgrading or relocating, we move one or multiple pianos with minimal downtime, often outside normal hours to avoid clashing with lessons or events.
Urgent or Short-Notice Piano Moves
Sometimes pianos need to be moved quickly – for a property completion date, refurbishment or unexpected change of plan. Where our schedule allows, we offer short-notice and same-day piano removals within Haringey and nearby areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a piano removal in Haringey cost?
The cost depends mainly on the type of piano, access at each address and the distance travelled. Uprights on the ground floor with straightforward access are at the lower end, while grands and multi-flight stair moves cost more due to extra staff and equipment. Once we know your piano type, floor levels and locations, we provide a clear fixed or accurately estimated price. There are no hidden fees for standard protection. Contact us with a few details and we will give you a tailored quote.
Can you do same-day or urgent piano removals?
Where our schedule allows, we can often accommodate same-day or urgent piano moves within Haringey and nearby areas. Availability depends on existing bookings, the complexity of the move and the type of piano. For straightforward upright moves, short-notice slots are easier to arrange; grands and complex access may require at least some planning time. Get in touch by phone if your move is urgent and we will advise honestly on what is realistic and how quickly we can reach you.
Is my piano insured during the move?
Yes. Your instrument is covered by our goods in transit insurance while it is being handled and transported by us. In addition, our public liability cover protects against accidental damage to third-party property. Insurance is there as a safety net; our priority is always prevention through careful planning, specialist equipment and trained staff. If you have a particularly high-value instrument, let us know so we can record details and confirm any specific requirements before the move.
What is included in your piano removal service?
Our standard service includes assessing access, protecting the piano with padded covers, safeguarding floors and key surfaces as required, careful loading, secure transport and positioning the piano in your chosen room at the destination. For grand pianos, this also covers safe removal, wrapping and reassembly of legs and lyre. Basic dismantling and re-assembly related to the move are included. Tuning, internal repairs and long-term storage are not part of the service, but we can often recommend trusted local partners if needed.
How is your service different from a general man-and-van?
While many man-and-van operators can move furniture, pianos need a different level of skill and equipment. Our team is specifically trained in piano handling, using specialist skids, covers and moving techniques. We are also fully insured for this type of work, and we plan each piano move in more detail than a standard load-and-go service. This reduces the risk of damage to your instrument and property, and provides peace of mind that the move is being carried out by people who do this regularly.
How far in advance should I book a piano removal?
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, especially around weekends and month-end when demand is higher. However, we understand that completion dates and schedules can change, so we aim to be flexible. If you only have a few days’ notice, contact us as soon as possible – we will check our diary and do our best to fit you in, particularly for local Haringey moves.
Man with Van
Man with Van Haringey – Professional Local Moving Service
At Man and Van Haringey, our man with van service is designed for people who want a flexible, professional move without the cost of a full-scale removals crew. You still get an experienced, fully insured moving team, proper vehicles and equipment – just sized to suit smaller moves, short hops and tight schedules around Haringey and North London.
What Our Man with Van Service Includes
Our man with van team handles far more than simply turning up with a van. You get a complete, structured service carried out by trained, uniformed movers who move people in Haringey every day.
Typical Service Variations
- Single-item moves – sofas, wardrobes, appliances, pianos (upright)
- Flat and studio moves – ideal for renters and first-time movers
- Student moves – between halls, house shares and storage
- Small office relocations – desks, chairs, IT equipment, archives
- Store collections – IKEA and other furniture or bulky purchases
- Part-loads & shared loads – cost-effective if you have a few items
We supply the van, labour, trolley, blankets and basic protection as standard. Additional packing, dismantling and reassembly can be added if required.
Local Haringey Expertise
Based in the borough, our drivers and porters know Haringey’s roads, parking restrictions and estates inside out. Whether it’s a tight one-way street in Crouch End, resident bays near Finsbury Park, or loading at busy times in Wood Green, we plan your move around local conditions.
That local knowledge means:
- Realistic arrival and completion times
- Advance planning for permits and access
- Choosing the right vehicle size for your street
- Less time wasted, fewer delays and a smoother move
Who Our Man with Van Service Is For
Homeowners
Perfect if you are moving a smaller property, clearing a garage or shed, or transporting a few large items between homes. We can also work alongside your main removals crew to handle overflow items.
Renters
If you are moving between rented flats or house shares in Haringey, a professional man with van is usually all you need. We are used to stairs, lifts, tight hallways and timed move-ins or check-outs.
Landlords
We help landlords clear or part-furnish properties, remove old furniture, or move items between lets. We work carefully to avoid damage and keep disruption to neighbours to a minimum.
Businesses
Small office relocations, moving files to storage, delivering stock between sites or collecting trade show materials – our man with van option keeps costs down while remaining fully insured and accountable.
Students
Students often have too much for a taxi, but not enough for a full removals lorry. Our student-friendly man with van service is ideal for moves to and from halls, shared houses and storage units in and around Haringey.
What We Can and Cannot Move
Items Typically Included
- Household furniture – beds, sofas, tables, wardrobes, drawers
- Domestic appliances – washing machines, fridges, freezers, cookers
- Boxes, bags and suitcases of personal belongings
- Office furniture – desks, chairs, filing cabinets, shelving
- IT equipment – computers, monitors, printers (suitably packed)
- Bikes, sports equipment and hobby items
Items Excluded or Requiring Prior Agreement
- Hazardous materials – gas bottles, fuel, chemicals, paint, solvents
- Live animals or plants in bulk
- Very high-value items (jewellery, cash, important documents) – these should travel with you
- Heavy safes and machinery beyond safe lifting limits
- Grand pianos or specialist items that need dedicated crews
If you are unsure about an item, just ask when you enquire – we can often accommodate special requests with the right planning.
How Our Man with Van Process Works
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with your addresses, dates and a rough list of items. We will ask a few practical questions about access, floors, lifts and parking. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote and recommend the right size van and number of movers.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For straightforward, smaller jobs we usually carry out a quick virtual survey via video call or photos. For larger or more complex moves, we can arrange an onsite visit in Haringey. This ensures we understand volumes, access routes and any dismantling required, so there are no surprises on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can choose to pack yourself, or we can supply packing materials and a packing service at extra cost. Either way, our team checks that items are safe to move, protects furniture with blankets and wraps delicate pieces as needed. Appliances are disconnected in advance, unless agreed otherwise.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our trained crew arrives on time, walks through the job with you, and then loads methodically. We use trolleys, ramps and securing straps to protect your goods. Once loaded, we transport everything directly to your new address, using the most sensible route for Haringey traffic and roadworks.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination, we unload to the rooms you specify, place larger items where you want them and reassemble anything we dismantled (if included in your quote). Before we leave, we walk round with you to check that everything is in the right place and that you are happy with the service.
Transparent Pricing and How We Charge
We believe in straightforward, transparent pricing so you know where you stand before booking. For most man with van jobs, we work on either:
- An hourly rate (minimum booking period), or
- A fixed price based on volume, access and distance
Your quote will clearly state what is included: number of movers, vehicle size, estimated duration, and any additional services such as packing, dismantling or disposal. There are no hidden extras – any potential parking, congestion or ULEZ charges are discussed upfront where applicable.
Why Choose a Professional Man with Van Over DIY
It can be tempting to hire a van and rope in friends, or book the cheapest ad you see online. In reality, moving is physical, technical and time-sensitive. With our professional man with van service you benefit from:
- Experience: regular moves in Haringey, so we know how to handle tight stairs, awkward furniture and long carries
- Protection: blankets, straps and proper stacking to avoid damage
- Efficiency: trained crews simply work quicker and more safely
- Insurance: your goods are covered; with casual help, they are not
By the time you factor in van hire, fuel, time off work and the risk of injury or damage, a reputable man with van is often the more sensible choice.
Insurance and Professional Standards
As an established Haringey removals company, we operate to clear, professional standards. This includes:
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your belongings while they are in our care and in our vehicles, subject to terms and declared values.
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to property or third parties during the move.
- Trained moving teams – our crews are briefed on safe lifting, packing and handling techniques, and work to a consistent process on every job.
Policy details and limits are available on request; we are always happy to explain exactly how you are protected.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your belongings and property as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped and covered, doorways and bannisters are protected where necessary, and we plan awkward items in advance rather than forcing them. Our vehicles are clean, maintained and equipped for removals, not general haulage.
Where possible, we use reusable protective materials and durable crates, and we consolidate journeys to reduce unnecessary mileage. Cardboard boxes and packing paper can be collected for reuse or recycling, helping to keep waste to a minimum.
Real-World Use Cases for Our Man with Van Haringey Service
Moving House or Flat
From studio flats to small houses, our man with van crews carry out local moves across Haringey daily. If your move is larger, we can scale up with extra movers or additional vehicles while still keeping the personal, flexible approach.
Office Relocations
Smaller businesses often do not need a full-scale corporate relocation. Our service is ideal for moving a few rooms’ worth of desks, chairs and IT equipment, with evening or weekend slots available to minimise downtime.
Urgent and Same-Day Moves
Sometimes plans change at short notice – a tenancy falls through, a sale completes unexpectedly, or you need items moved quickly. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day man with van support within Haringey and nearby areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a man with van in Haringey cost?
Costs vary depending on the size of van, number of movers, distance and how long the job takes. For smaller local moves, we typically quote an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, which keeps things fair if your job is straightforward. For larger or fixed-scope moves, we can provide a set price in advance. Your quote will clearly list what is included, and we will always discuss any potential extras, such as parking charges, before you confirm the booking.
Can you provide same-day or urgent man with van service?
Yes, we can often provide same-day or very short-notice man with van support in Haringey, depending on our existing schedule and vehicle availability. If you need an urgent move, call us as early as possible with full details of what needs moving, from where and to where. We will check our diary, advise what is realistic, and give you a clear price before you commit. We will always be honest about timeframes so you can plan around them.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are in our care and being transported, subject to policy terms and conditions. We also hold public liability insurance for added protection. We will explain any limits and exclusions when you book, and we recommend that you tell us about particularly high-value or fragile items in advance so we can advise on packing, handling and any additional cover that may be appropriate.
What is included in your man with van service?
Our standard man with van service includes a suitable vehicle, one or more trained movers, loading, safe transport and unloading to the rooms you specify. We bring blankets, straps and trolleys as needed. Optional extras include packing materials, full or partial packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and disposal of agreed items. Your quote will make clear exactly what is and is not included, so there are no surprises on the day of your move.
What is the difference between your service and a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van is often just a driver with a van and little accountability. Our service is run by an established removals company: we use professional equipment, follow a structured process and provide proper insurance. Our teams are experienced in handling furniture, packing vans safely and protecting properties. You receive written confirmation of your booking, clear pricing and support if plans change. In short, you get the flexibility of a man with van backed by the standards of a reputable removals firm.
How far in advance should I book?
For weekend slots and popular moving dates, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance to secure your preferred time. Midweek and off-peak slots can often be arranged at shorter notice. If your dates are not fixed, we can hold a provisional booking while you confirm. That said, we always try to help with last-minute enquiries wherever our schedule allows, so it is worth contacting us even if your move is only a day or two away.
Man and a Van
Man and a Van Haringey – Local, Professional Moving Support
At Man and Van Haringey, our man and a van service is designed for people who want a reliable, properly run removals operation – but don’t need a huge lorry and a full moving crew. You get an experienced local driver‑porter, the right size van, and the same professional standards we apply to our larger removals jobs.
What Our Man and a Van Service Includes
This service sits between a full removal and basic van hire. You get:
- A modern, clean Luton or panel van with straps, blankets and trolleys
- An experienced professional driver who also helps with lifting
- Collection and delivery across Haringey and the wider London area
- Careful loading, protection and unloading of your belongings
- Goods in transit insurance (within policy limits)
- Public liability cover for work at your property
It’s ideal for smaller moves, single items and short-notice jobs where you still want a fully insured, accountable removals company – not just a casual side‑job.
Local Haringey Expertise
Based in Haringey, we know the area street by street – from Green Lanes and Crouch End to Tottenham, Muswell Hill and Wood Green. That local knowledge matters when it comes to:
- Parking planning on narrow or restricted roads
- Timing moves around schools, events and traffic hotspots
- Dealing with controlled parking zones and loading bays
- Access issues in older properties, mansion blocks and estates
We regularly work with local estate agents, landlords and businesses in Haringey, so we’re used to coordinating keys, managing tight time windows and handling multi‑stop jobs across North London.
Who Our Man and a Van Service Is For
Homeowners
Perfect for smaller house moves, partial moves or clearing specific rooms. Many homeowners use our man and a van option for:
- Moving out of storage back into the family home
- Transporting large items during renovations

Ideal for flat and house moves around Haringey where you don’t have a full household of furniture. We regularly help renters move between shared houses, studios and one‑bed flats, including top‑floor and no‑lift properties.
Landlords
Landlords use us to clear or furnish properties, remove old beds and wardrobes, or move appliances between rentals. We provide a punctual, professional service that respects neighbours and building rules.

For small offices and local businesses, our man and a van option is ideal for:
- Internal moves or floor‑to‑floor relocations
- Delivering stock, equipment or event materials

Students
We regularly support students at nearby universities and colleges. Our service is well suited to term‑time moves between halls and private rentals, and to moving belongings home during holidays.
What We Can and Cannot Move
Items Typically Included

- Sofas, armchairs and beds (dismantling available on request)
- Wardrobes, chests of drawers and shelving units
- Tables, desks, filing cabinets and office chairs
- Fridges, washing machines and other domestic appliances
- Boxes, suitcases and bags
- TVs, computers and standard electronic equipment (properly packed)
Items We Exclude or Need to Assess
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, our man and a van service does not normally cover:
- Hazardous materials (fuel, gas cylinders, chemicals, paint thinners)
- Live animals or plants requiring special transport
- Very high‑value items (fine art, jewellery, large safes) without prior agreement
- Industrial machinery or exceptionally heavy items requiring specialist kit
- Unboxed loose items that cannot be moved safely
If you’re unsure about a specific item, we’ll assess it during the enquiry or survey stage.
Our Step‑by‑Step Man and a Van Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us by phone or online with your move details – addresses, dates, access notes and a rough list of items. We ask specific questions about stairs, parking and timing so we can match the right van and manpower to your job. For most man and a van moves we can provide a fixed or hourly quote the same day.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For simpler jobs, a quick video call or photo survey is enough. For more complex moves (tight access, awkward furniture, multiple stops), we may arrange a short onsite visit. This allows us to confirm volumes, plan the route and identify any risks in advance, reducing the chance of surprises on moving day.
3. Packing & Preparation
Most man and a van clients choose to pack their own boxes. We can supply materials in advance if needed. On request, we also offer:
- Basic dismantling of beds and furniture
- Protective wrapping for delicate items
- Labelling guidance to speed up unloading
We’ll advise you on how to prepare appliances and electronics so they travel safely.
4. Loading & Transport
On the day, our professional driver arrives on time and walks through the move plan with you. We use blankets, straps and trolleys to protect and secure your belongings. Everything is loaded methodically to minimise movement in transit. We then travel directly to your destination, using the most efficient and practical route.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the new address, we unload items into the rooms you specify. We’ll place furniture where you want it and stack boxes sensibly so you can unpack without obstructing walkways. Before we leave, we ask you to check that nothing has been missed and that you’re satisfied with the placement of key items.
Transparent Pricing – How We Charge
We believe in clear, simple pricing with no hidden extras. For most man and a van jobs in Haringey we offer:
- Competitive hourly rates (minimum booking period)
- Or a fixed price for clearly defined jobs
Our quotes typically take into account:
- Distance and travel time between addresses
- Access, stairs and parking arrangements
- Number and type of items to be moved
- Any dismantling, wrapping or extra labour required
All charges, including any congestion or parking costs we are asked to manage, are explained upfront so you know exactly what to expect on your invoice.
Why Choose a Professional Man and a Van Over DIY
Hiring a van yourself can seem cheaper, but once you factor in fuel, deposits, time off work, heavy lifting and the risk of damage, it often isn’t. Using a fully insured, trained team means:
- Your belongings are protected by goods in transit insurance
- You’re covered by our public liability policy if something goes wrong at the property
- Experienced movers handle awkward items safely, reducing risk of injury
- You don’t have to drive or manoeuvre a large vehicle in London traffic
Compared with casual man‑and‑van adverts, we offer proper paperwork, confirmed bookings and accountability – with a real office and name on the side of the van.
Insurance and Professional Standards
As a responsible removals company, we operate to clear standards:
- Goods in transit insurance to set limits, covering loss or damage while items are in our vehicle
- Public liability cover for accidental damage to property while we work
- Trained teams who understand safe lifting, loading and handling
- Regularly maintained vehicles equipped with the right protective gear
Policy details and limits are available on request, and we’re happy to explain exactly how cover applies to your move.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your belongings as if they were our own. That means using blankets, shrink‑wrap and straps where appropriate, and never over‑stacking or forcing items into spaces that aren’t suitable. We also work with sustainability in mind:
- Reusing and recycling boxes and materials where safe and hygienic
- Planning routes to reduce unnecessary mileage
- Encouraging customers to donate unwanted items rather than binning them
Our aim is to complete your move efficiently, with minimal waste and disruption.
Real‑World Uses of Our Man and a Van Service
Moving Home
Ideal for studio and one‑bed flats, or for moving part of a household while the rest stays in place. We often help people bridge the gap between rentals, or move key items in advance of a larger removal.
Office Relocations
Smaller offices and sole traders use us to move desks, chairs, stock and IT equipment between premises in and around Haringey. We can work early mornings, evenings or weekends to reduce downtime.
Urgent and Same‑Day Moves
When you’re let down last minute or need something moved quickly, our local presence in Haringey means we can often offer same‑day or next‑day slots. We’ll always be honest about what is realistic within the time and access available.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a man and a van service in Haringey cost?
Pricing depends on distance, volume and access, but most man and a van jobs are charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking period. For straightforward moves between local addresses, we can often give a fixed price once we understand what needs moving and the locations involved. To keep your costs down, we recommend having everything packed and ready near the entrance, reserving parking where possible, and giving us accurate information about stairs and heavy items so we can plan the right level of manpower from the start.
Can you offer same‑day or urgent man and a van bookings?
Yes, subject to availability we can often provide same‑day or next‑day man and a van support in Haringey and the surrounding areas. Because our vehicles and teams are based locally, we sometimes have gaps between larger jobs that can be used for urgent moves. The more detail you can give us when you call – addresses, access, key items and time constraints – the easier it is for us to confirm a realistic arrival window and price. For very tight deadlines, we’ll always be upfront about what we can safely achieve.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Our man and a van service includes goods in transit insurance, which covers your items while they are in our vehicle, subject to policy limits and conditions. We also hold public liability insurance for work at your property. To ensure you’re properly protected, we ask you to declare any particularly high‑value or fragile items in advance, and to pack them carefully or request additional wrapping. We’re happy to provide a summary of our insurance cover and answer any questions before you confirm your booking.
What exactly is included in your man and a van service?
You get a suitable van, a professional driver‑porter, loading, secure transport and unloading at the other end. We supply blankets, straps and basic moving equipment as standard. On request, and for an agreed fee, we can help with dismantling simple furniture, wrapping delicate items and supplying packing materials beforehand. What’s not included as standard are packing services, waste disposal, disconnection of appliances and moving prohibited items such as hazardous materials. All inclusions are clearly listed in your confirmation so you know what to expect on the day.
How is your service different from a casual man‑and‑van?
We operate as an established removals company, not a side line. That means fully insured vehicles, trained staff, confirmed bookings and written quotes. Our vans carry professional equipment and we follow set procedures for loading, securing and protecting furniture. If something goes wrong, you’re dealing with a registered business with proper complaints and claims processes, not just a mobile number. In practice, this usually means a smoother move, fewer breakages, better timekeeping and clear accountability from first enquiry to final invoice.
How far in advance should I book a man and a van in Haringey?
For weekends and month‑end dates, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, as those slots fill quickly. Mid‑week and off‑peak moves can often be arranged with a few days’ notice, and occasionally we can help on the same day. The earlier you contact us, the more flexibility you’ll have on timing and price. Once you’re happy with our quote, we’ll confirm your booking in writing and reserve the agreed time slot and vehicle for your move.

We regularly support tenants moving between rented flats in Haringey. We’re used to working within check-out times and inventory appointments, keeping the property protected so you leave it in good condition for your deposit inspection.
Landlords
Landlords use our service to clear properties after a tenancy, move in new furniture, or relocate items to storage. We can remove old furniture (subject to disposal rules) and set up flats ready for new tenants.
Businesses
For small businesses, freelancers and remote workers based in flats, we move office furniture, IT equipment and documents with minimal downtime. We can schedule outside your core working hours where required.
Students
Students moving into or out of shared flats and halls benefit from our cost-effective, smaller-load moves. We can often combine several students’ moves in one run to keep costs down, while still providing a reliable and professional service.
What We Can and Can’t Move
Items typically included
- Sofas, armchairs, beds, wardrobes, chests of drawers

- Boxes of clothes, books, kitchenware and personal items

Our Step-by-Step Flat Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone or online with basic details: current and new addresses, flat type, number of rooms, approximate volume and preferred date. We’ll discuss any access issues (stairs, lifts, parking) and provide an initial no-obligation estimate. For straightforward moves, we can often give a firm quote at this stage.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger or more complex flat moves, we recommend a short survey. This can be done via video call or in person. We assess access routes, parking, lift restrictions and item volume. This allows us to choose the right vehicle, crew size and time slot, and to give you a clear, fixed-price quote where appropriate.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or use our packing service. If you choose packing, our trained team carefully packs your belongings using quality materials, labels boxes by room and secures fragile items. We can also provide packing materials if you prefer to do it yourself, and offer guidance on protecting breakables and flat-access routes.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our team arrives on time, carries out a brief walk-through and protects key areas as needed (lifts, hallways, doors). We load systematically, securing items in the vehicle to prevent movement. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while in our care. We then transport them directly to your new address or to storage.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new flat, we unload items into the rooms you specify. Large furniture is placed where you want it, and we can reassemble items we dismantled by prior arrangement. Before leaving, we check you’re happy with the placement and that nothing has been overlooked in the vehicle.
Transparent Pricing for Flat Removals in Haringey
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. The cost of your flat move depends on:
- Volume of items and size of the flat
- Access (stairs only, lift access, long carries)
- Distance between addresses
- Services required – basic move, part-packing, full packing
- Day and time (standard hours vs evenings/weekends)
We typically work on either a fixed price for the whole job or an hourly rate for smaller moves. All quotes are itemised, with no hidden charges for standard mileage or labour within the agreed scope. Any potential extras (e.g. difficult access, additional stops) are discussed and agreed in advance.
Why Use Professional Flat Removers Instead of DIY?
While hiring a van and doing it yourself can seem cheaper, flats add complications that make professional help worthwhile:
- We manage stairs, tight corners and lift rules safely and efficiently
- Trained crews know how to protect both furniture and building common areas
- We plan parking and access, avoiding fines or delays
- Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance
- Reduced risk of personal injury from heavy lifting or awkward loads
Compared with casual man-and-van operators, we provide structured planning, professional standards, and full documentation, giving you confidence that your move is properly managed.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Man and Van Haringey operates to recognised industry standards to protect you and your belongings.
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to property or third parties during the move
- Trained moving teams – all staff are trained in safe lifting, loading, and protection of goods and property
- Clean, well-maintained vehicles with suitable securing equipment
We are happy to outline our cover and limits in writing and answer any questions about how insurance applies to your particular move.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We take care not only of your belongings but also of the buildings we work in and the environment.
- Use of blankets, covers and floor protection where needed
- Careful handling in communal areas to avoid scuffs and damage
- Re-use of sturdy cartons and use of recyclable packing materials where possible
- Planning loads to reduce the number of trips and unnecessary mileage
- Responsible disposal of unwanted items by arrangement, following local guidelines
Our aim is to complete your move efficiently while minimising waste and disturbance to neighbours.
Real-World Flat Removal Use Cases
Moving Home Within Haringey
Many of our customers move from one flat to another within Haringey. We can often do these moves in a single day, even with multiple flights of stairs, by sending the right size team and vehicle.
Relocating to or from London
If you’re leaving Haringey for another part of the UK, or moving into the area, we handle the London-side challenges – parking, loading and building access – and coordinate timings at the other end.
Urgent or Short-Notice Flat Moves
Sometimes moves come up quickly due to changes in tenancy or personal circumstances. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day flat removals. We prioritise clear communication so you know exactly what’s realistic on a short timescale.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a flat removal in Haringey cost?
The cost of a flat removal depends mainly on how much you have to move, access at each property, and the distance between them. Smaller studio or one-bedroom flat moves within Haringey may be priced on an hourly basis, while larger two- or three-bedroom flats are usually quoted at a fixed price. Packing services, awkward access or additional stops can affect the total. We always provide a clear written estimate or quote before you commit, so you know exactly what is included and can budget with confidence.
Can you do same-day or urgent flat removals?
We can often accommodate same-day or urgent moves, especially for smaller flats or part-loads, depending on our schedule and crew availability. If you need to move at short notice, contact us as early in the day as possible with full details of your requirements. We’ll confirm what is realistically achievable, discuss any limitations, and prioritise essential items if time is tight. While we can’t guarantee same-day slots every time, we’ll always do our best to find a practical solution that gets you moved safely and on time.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicles, subject to policy conditions and any declared value limits. We also carry public liability cover in case accidental damage occurs to property during the move. Insurance is not a substitute for careful handling, so our trained team still packs and loads with great care. We’ll happily explain how our insurance works, what is and isn’t covered, and how to declare high-value items so you have full clarity before moving day.
What exactly is included in your flat removals service?
Our standard flat removals service includes the supply of the vehicle, a professional team of movers, loading all agreed items, secure transport, and unloading everything into the rooms you specify at your new address. We protect furniture with blankets and straps in the vehicle and take reasonable care of communal areas. Optional extras include packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and supply of packing materials. All inclusions and any additional services are clearly listed in your quote so you know precisely what to expect on the day.
What’s the difference between your service and a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van is often just a driver with a vehicle, working on a loose basis, sometimes without formal insurance or trained staff. Our service is a structured, professional removal operation. We provide planning, surveys where needed, written quotes, fully insured vehicles and trained teams who know how to manage stairwells, lifts and delicate items. We also take responsibility for timing, access and safe loading. This reduces risk, saves time on the day, and gives you clearer accountability if anything unexpected happens.
How far in advance should I book my flat removal?
For the best choice of dates and times, especially at month-end and weekends, we recommend booking your flat removal one to three weeks in advance. However, we understand that completion dates and tenancy agreements can change, so we try to remain flexible. If your move is sooner, still contact us – we often have gaps or can rearrange our schedule to fit smaller jobs. Once you’re ready to confirm, we’ll secure your booking and send written details so you know your moving day is properly organised.
Student Removals
Student Removals in Haringey by Man and Van Haringey
Moving into or out of student halls or a shared house in Haringey can be stressful, especially if you don’t have a car or much time between exams, work and life. At Man and Van Haringey, we provide a dedicated student removals service designed around how students actually live and move – fast, affordable and fully supported by a professional, fully insured local team.
Specialist Student Removal Service in Haringey
Our student removals are built to handle everything from a single room to an entire shared flat. Whether you’re moving into halls near Wood Green, a house share in Turnpike Lane, or heading out of Haringey to another city, we make your move straightforward and organised.
We understand student timetables: awkward key collection times, strict check-out deadlines, and the need to move on evenings or weekends. We plan your move around all of that so you can focus on studies, not logistics.
Who Our Student Removals in Haringey Are For
Students
Our core service is for university and college students moving:
- Into or out of student halls or campus accommodation
- Between shared houses and flats around Haringey
- Back home for the summer or returning for a new term
- To another city for placements or graduation
Homeowners & Parents
If you’re a parent helping a student move, we provide a reliable, punctual service so you don’t need to hire a van, take a day off work, or struggle with lifting. We can collect from your home and deliver directly to halls or a flat in Haringey or beyond.
Renters & House Sharers
Many students rent privately in Haringey. We regularly help with:
- End-of-tenancy moves between rented rooms or studios
- Short-notice moves when contracts change or house shares break up
- Room-to-room moves within the same building
Landlords & Letting Agents
We assist landlords and letting agents with quick turnarounds between student tenancies, including cleared moves when a room needs to be emptied, and careful transport of furniture you are providing.
Businesses & Student Accommodation Providers
We support businesses and purpose-built student accommodation providers with bulk moves, such as relocating groups of students, clearing storage units, or transporting study furniture and equipment.
What’s Included in Our Student Removals
Typical Items We Move
We routinely move:
- Suitcases, bags, boxes and crates
- Desks, chairs, bookshelves and small wardrobes
- Beds, mattresses and futons (where allowed by your tenancy)
- Computers, monitors, gaming setups and TVs
- Course materials, books, folders and instruments
- Kitchen items, small appliances and personal belongings
- Bikes and sports equipment (with appropriate protection)
Items We Cannot Move
To keep everyone safe and compliant with our insurance and legal obligations, there are some items we cannot transport:
- Illegal or hazardous materials (gas cylinders, fireworks, chemicals)
- Open containers of liquids that may leak and damage other items
- Animals or pets
- Perishable food for long-distance moves
- Items that exceed safe lifting or size limits for the property access
If you’re unsure about a particular item, just ask when you request a quote and we’ll advise.
How Our Student Removal Process Works
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone, email or online form with your moving dates, addresses, and a rough list of items. We’ll ask a few practical questions about access, floors, lifts and time restrictions. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, usually the same day.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For most student moves, a quick virtual survey (photos or video call) is enough. For larger shared-house moves or long-distance relocations, we can arrange an onsite survey in Haringey. This ensures we send the right size vehicle and team, avoiding last-minute issues.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own belongings, or add our packing service. We supply quality boxes and packing materials, and our trained team can pack breakables, tech and books securely. We label boxes clearly so unloading at the new address is straightforward and nothing goes missing.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day we arrive on time, introduce the crew, walk through the items and plan the loading route. We protect furniture with covers and blankets, and secure everything properly in the van. Your belongings are transported directly, with regular updates for longer journeys.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the new address we unload carefully to the rooms you specify, not just to the door. We place larger items like beds, desks and wardrobes where you want them, so you can settle in quickly. Once done, we check you’re happy with everything before leaving.
Transparent Pricing for Student Removals
We know cost matters for students. Our pricing is straightforward, with:
- Clear hourly or fixed-price options depending on the move
- No hidden charges for stairs or evening/weekend work (disclosed upfront)
- Optional extra services (packing, materials, storage) clearly itemised
Smaller local moves within Haringey are often charged at an hourly rate, ideal if you’re moving a room or studio. Larger or longer-distance student moves are usually a fixed price agreed in advance, so you know exactly what you’ll pay before moving day.
Why Use a Professional Removal Service Instead of DIY?
Hiring a professional removals team offers several advantages over borrowing a car or hiring a basic van:
- Trained movers who know how to lift safely and protect your belongings
- Proper equipment: trolleys, blankets, straps and covers to prevent damage
- Reduced risk of injury from heavy lifting or awkward staircases
- Faster, more organised moves, especially with limited time between tenancies
- Fully insured service, so your belongings are protected in transit
A casual man-with-van may seem cheaper, but often lacks the insurance, training and reliability needed when you’re moving everything you own. With Man and Van Haringey you get a professional team focused on doing the job properly from start to finish.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We take our responsibilities seriously. Our service includes:
- Goods in transit insurance to protect your belongings while they are being transported
- Public liability cover for peace of mind in case of accidental damage to property
- Trained moving teams experienced with student accommodation, tight staircases and shared houses
- Sign-off checks at the end of the move so you can confirm everything is where it should be
This level of cover and professionalism is especially important for valuable items such as laptops, monitors, instruments and course materials that you rely on every day.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We handle student moves with the same care as any full house move. Furniture is wrapped and protected, boxes are stacked safely, and electronics are secured. For shared houses, we keep each person’s belongings clearly separated and labelled to avoid any mix-ups.
We also aim to work more sustainably by:
- Reusing strong packing cartons where appropriate
- Offering box collection and reuse after your move
- Planning routes efficiently around Haringey to reduce unnecessary mileage
Real-World Student Move Scenarios We Handle
Moving Into Halls or First-Year Accommodation
We regularly help first-year students move into halls with parents or on their own. We manage tight arrival slots, busy car parks and building rules, carrying everything to your room so you don’t need to struggle with multiple trips.
Shared House & Flat Moves
Many second- and third-year students share houses across Haringey. We coordinate with everyone involved, moving individual rooms or whole properties. We work around key handover times and can complete the move in stages if needed.
End-of-Year & Urgent Moves
Some moves are urgent – last-minute room changes, end-of-tenancy deadlines, or unexpected changes to plans. Subject to availability, we can provide same-day or short-notice student removals within Haringey and nearby areas.
Long-Distance Student Moves
If you’re leaving Haringey after your course or moving for a placement, we can transport your belongings to other UK cities. We plan these carefully so that collection and delivery fit around your travel and key times.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a student removal in Haringey cost?
Costs vary depending on how much you’re moving, access at each property, and the distance travelled. For small local moves within Haringey, many students choose an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, which keeps costs predictable for single rooms or studios. Larger or longer-distance moves are usually priced as a fixed quote agreed in advance. When you contact us, share a simple list of items and both addresses; we’ll give you a clear price with no hidden extras so you can budget confidently.
Can you do same-day or urgent student moves?
Yes, we can often help with same-day or urgent moves in Haringey, especially outside peak periods such as end of term. Availability depends on our schedule and the size of your move. If you need an urgent removal, call us as early as possible with your details. We’ll check vehicle and crew availability and give you realistic time options. Where we can’t fit you in immediately, we’ll usually be able to offer the next available slot and advise how to prepare quickly to keep the move efficient.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are on our vehicles and by public liability insurance for work in and around the properties. This cover is designed for normal household and student belongings. We still recommend that highly valuable items such as jewellery or important documents travel with you personally where possible. We’re happy to explain exactly what is and isn’t covered when you book, so you know how our insurance works alongside any personal contents or student insurance policies you already have.
What’s included in your student removals service?
Our standard student removals include a vehicle sized for your load, a professional moving team, loading, transport and unloading to the rooms you specify. We provide protective blankets and securing straps as standard to keep items safe in transit. Optional extras include packing services, supply of boxes and packing materials, dismantling and reassembly of basic furniture, and short- or long-term storage. We outline exactly what is included in your quote so there is no confusion on moving day, and you can choose the level of help that suits your budget.
How is your service different from a basic man-and-van?
While a basic man-and-van can move items from A to B, our service is built around professional standards. We use trained staff, appropriate equipment, and have full goods in transit and public liability insurance. We carry out proper planning, surveys where needed, and careful loading and unloading so your belongings are protected. We also provide clear, written quotes and booking confirmations. For students moving everything they own, this level of reliability and accountability is important, especially when access is tight and timings with landlords or halls are fixed.
How far in advance should I book my student move?
For the best choice of dates and times, especially around end-of-term and September starts, we recommend booking 2–3 weeks in advance. That said, we understand that student plans can change quickly, so we always try to accommodate short-notice bookings where our schedule allows. As soon as you know your moving date or check-in/checkout times, get in touch with the details. We can pencil in provisional dates if needed and firm them up once your tenancy or halls arrangements are confirmed.

Renters
From first-time renters to long-term tenants, we help you move between flats and houses with minimal hassle. We pay close attention to stairwells, communal areas and existing fixtures so you leave the property in good condition for your check-out inspection.
Landlords
Landlords use our service to clear properties between tenancies, move furniture in or out of furnished lets and support tenants who need a reliable removals partner. We can work to tight void periods and provide invoices for your records.
Businesses
For small businesses and home offices moving within Haringey or further afield, we provide organised removals for desks, IT equipment, stock and documents. We can schedule work outside normal hours to minimise business interruption.
Students
Students moving to or from halls, house shares or studios benefit from our flexible, smaller-load moves. We regularly help with term-time moves, end-of-year clear outs and relocations between London campuses.
What We Can Move
Our house removals service covers most domestic and light commercial items, including:
- Sofas, armchairs, dining tables and chairs
- Beds, mattresses, wardrobes and bedroom furniture
- White goods – fridges, freezers, washing machines, dryers
- TVs, sound systems and everyday electronics
- Boxes of clothes, books, kitchenware and personal items
- Office desks, chairs, filing cabinets and small equipment
- Bicycles, sports equipment and stored items from lofts or garages
What We Cannot Move
To keep our team and your belongings safe, some items are excluded from our standard service:
- Hazardous materials (fuel, gas bottles, solvents, paint thinners)
- Illegal items or anything prohibited by law
- Unsealed liquids that may spill during transport
- Live animals (we recommend dedicated pet transport)
- Very high-value items such as fine art or jewellery without prior agreement
- Large industrial machinery not suited to our vehicles
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, let us know during the quotation stage so we can advise or make safe arrangements.
Our Step-by-Step House Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact us by phone or online with the basics: current address, destination, property size, main items and preferred moving date. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the information you give us, and we explain exactly what is included.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a short survey. This can be done by video call or in person. We assess access, parking, stairways, lifts and item volumes so we can allocate the right team, van size and equipment. A proper survey avoids surprises on moving day.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can choose between:
- Packing service – We provide materials and pack your belongings professionally, including fragile items and kitchen contents.
- Part-packing service – We handle breakables and awkward items; you pack simpler belongings.
- Self-packing – You pack; we supply boxes and advice if required.
We can also dismantle and reassemble standard beds, wardrobes and flat-pack furniture by prior arrangement.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day our team arrives on time, carries out a brief walk-through with you and then protects floors and key furniture. We use blankets, straps and trolleys to load safely and efficiently. All goods are secured inside the van to minimise movement during transit. We then transport your belongings directly to your new address by the planned route.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new home we unload room by room according to your instructions. Furniture is placed where you want it, and labelled boxes are stacked in the correct rooms. If dismantling and reassembly was agreed, we rebuild items so you can start using them straight away. Before we leave, we invite you to check that everything has been unloaded and positioned correctly.
Transparent Pricing for House Removals in Haringey
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our quotes are based on:
- Volume of goods and number of rooms
- Access difficulties (stairs, distance to parking, no lifts)
- Travel distance between properties
- Level of service – packing, dismantling, reassembly
- Day of the week and any out-of-hours requirements
We set out what is included in writing so you know exactly what you are paying for. There are no hidden charges for standard local moves as long as the scope of work matches what was agreed at the quotation stage.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY
Hiring a professional removals team offers several advantages over doing it yourself or relying on a casual one-man service:
- Experienced handling reduces the risk of damage to furniture and properties.
- Correct equipment (trolleys, straps, blankets) makes heavy lifting safer.
- Planned timings and routes avoid delays and last-minute issues.
- Fully insured cover provides protection that DIY moves cannot match.
- A trained crew can complete in hours what might take you all day or longer.
For many customers, the reduced stress and lower risk of injury or breakage more than justify the cost of a professional move.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Man and Van Haringey operates to clear, professional standards for your peace of mind:
- Goods in transit insurance – Cover for your belongings while they are being moved, subject to terms and conditions.
- Public liability cover – Protection in the unlikely event of damage to third-party property or injury during the move.
- Trained moving teams – Our staff are experienced in lifting techniques, safe loading and protecting both items and premises.
We are happy to explain our cover levels and provide confirmation of insurance on request before you book.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We handle your belongings as if they were our own. Key measures we take include:
- Protective blankets, shrink wrap and mattress covers where appropriate
- Floor and banister protection in vulnerable areas
- Securing loads properly to prevent movement in transit
We also make efforts to work more sustainably by reusing strong removal crates and boxes where possible, recycling materials, maintaining fuel-efficient vehicles and planning routes to reduce unnecessary mileage. These steps help lower our environmental impact while keeping standards high.
Common House Removal Scenarios We Handle
Moving House Within Haringey
Many of our clients move between streets or neighbourhoods within Haringey. These short-distance moves still benefit from proper planning, especially where parking and access are tight. We can often complete local moves in a single day.
Office and Home Office Relocations
We regularly move small offices and home-based businesses, ensuring that computers, screens and key documents are packed and transported securely. We can label and position workstation items so you can restart work with minimal downtime.
Urgent and Short-Notice Moves
Sometimes moves arise unexpectedly – a change in tenancy, a sale completing faster than planned or a sudden need to vacate. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day support. Calling us as early as possible gives the best chance of securing an urgent slot.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do house removals in Haringey cost?
The cost depends on the volume of your belongings, the distance between properties, access at each address and the level of service you choose. Smaller flat moves may be charged at an hourly rate, while larger house removals are usually quoted at a fixed price after a survey. Optional extras such as packing, materials and dismantling services are itemised so you can see exactly what you are paying for. We are always happy to provide a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your specific move.
Can you handle same-day or urgent removals?
We do our best to accommodate same-day or short-notice moves, especially within Haringey. Availability depends on our existing bookings, the size of your move and the distance involved. For urgent situations, it helps if you can be flexible on timing and service level. Contact us as early in the day as possible, provide clear details of what needs moving, and we will let you know honestly what we can offer and the likely cost before you decide.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms and conditions. We also carry public liability cover for additional protection. During your booking we can explain what is covered, any limits or exclusions, and how best to pack and declare higher-value items. Our aim is to combine sensible insurance with careful handling so you feel fully protected throughout your move.
What’s included in your house removals service?
Our standard service includes a suitably sized van, a trained team of movers, loading, transport and unloading to the rooms you specify. We protect key items with blankets and use straps and trolleys to handle heavier pieces safely. Optional extras include packing services, provision of boxes and materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture and additional stops if you need to collect or drop off items elsewhere. Everything included is set out clearly in your written quotation before you confirm your booking.
How is a professional removals service different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van may be suitable for very small or simple moves, but a professional removals service offers more structure and protection. We carry appropriate insurance, use trained staff, plan moves properly and provide written quotes and booking confirmations. We also bring the right equipment and allocate enough movers for the job, reducing the risk of damage or injury. For full house removals, especially from multi-storey or awkward properties, a professional removals team is usually safer, faster and more reliable.
How far in advance should I book my move?
Ideally, you should book your removal as soon as you have a confirmed moving date, particularly if you plan to move at the end of the month or on a weekend, when demand is higher. For most Haringey moves, one to three weeks’ notice allows time for a survey, planning and any packing you may require. That said, we regularly help on shorter notice when our schedule allows, so it is always worth contacting us even if your date is close.

- Bookcases, shelving units and cabinets
- Desks, office chairs and filing cabinets
- Non-fitted white goods (fridges, freezers, washing machines, etc.)
- Outdoor and garden furniture
- Flat-pack items (assembled or disassembled)
Items Excluded or Requiring Prior Agreement
For safety and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from standard furniture removals, or must be agreed in advance:
- Hazardous materials (fuel, chemicals, paint, gas cylinders)
- Illegal items or anything that cannot be legally transported
- Very high-value items such as fine art or antiques without prior notice
- Pianos and safes (can be moved, but only with specific arrangements)
- Pets and live animals
- Loose cash, jewellery or important documents (we recommend you carry these yourself)
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, just ask. We will either confirm it is covered, suggest a safe way to handle it or recommend a specialist where appropriate.
Our Step-by-Step Furniture Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with basic details of your move: addresses, access notes, key items of furniture and preferred dates. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote explaining what is included, any likely additional costs and the team and vehicle we recommend.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger moves, or where access is tricky, we carry out a short survey. This can be by video call or an onsite visit. We look at staircases, lifts, doorways, parking and volume of furniture, so we can plan the move properly and allocate the right number of trained movers.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack smaller items yourself, or we can provide a packing service for fragile or awkward pieces. On moving day, we protect furniture with padded covers, blankets and shrink wrap where necessary. We can also dismantle larger items (such as bed frames and wardrobes) and prepare white goods for safe transport.
4. Loading & Transport
Our team loads in a logical order, securing everything properly using straps and transit blankets. We work carefully in your property to avoid damage to walls, floors and doorways. Once loaded, we transport your furniture using suitable vehicles with goods in transit insurance in place throughout the journey.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination, we unload, place furniture in the rooms you specify and reassemble any items we dismantled. We will move pieces into position so you are not left dragging heavy furniture around after we leave. Before we go, we do a final walk-through with you to check you are happy with everything.
Transparent, Fair Pricing
We believe in straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Furniture removals in Haringey are normally priced based on:
- Volume and type of furniture to be moved
- Distance between properties
- Access difficulty (stairs only, parking restrictions, long carries)
- Number of movers required
- Optional services such as packing, dismantling and storage
We will always explain how your quote has been calculated. If something could increase the cost – for example, needing to carry furniture from a distant parking bay – we will flag it up in advance so you can make an informed decision.
Why Choose Professional Furniture Removals Instead of DIY
Moving furniture yourself or using an informal man-with-a-van may look cheaper at first, but it often leads to damaged items, injuries and hidden costs. Professional furniture removals come with:
- Trained staff who know how to lift, carry and protect heavy or delicate furniture
- Proper vehicles with securing points, blankets and equipment
- Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
- Reliable timekeeping and clear communication
- Reduced risk of injury to you, your friends or your staff
We frequently help clients who have tried to move heavy furniture themselves and run into problems. Using a professional team from the start usually works out better value and far less stressful.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Man and Van Haringey operates to professional standards that protect you, your property and your furniture:
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your furniture while it is being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms.
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to third-party property while we are working.
- Trained moving teams – all staff receive practical training in manual handling, loading, securing and property protection.
We treat your furniture as if it were our own, and we always aim to prevent problems rather than simply rely on insurance after the event.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We focus on careful handling, responsible materials and efficient planning:
- Use of high-quality transit blankets, padded covers and floor protection
- Secure loading to minimise movement in transit
- Re-usable packing materials wherever possible to reduce waste
- Route planning to minimise unnecessary mileage and emissions
- Responsible disposal or recycling of unwanted furniture by arrangement
Our aim is to move your furniture safely while keeping environmental impact and disruption to a sensible minimum.
Real-World Use Cases
Moving House Within Haringey
Typical jobs include moving families between terraced houses or flats in areas like Crouch End and Muswell Hill. We organise parking permits, protect floors and bannisters and coordinate timings with your buyers or landlords.
Office Relocations
For small to medium offices, we move desks, seating, storage and meeting room furniture. Moves are often completed in the evening or at weekends, so your staff can arrive on Monday to a functioning workspace.
Urgent and Short-Notice Moves
When completion dates move or leases change at the last minute, we do our best to provide same-day or next-day furniture removals, subject to availability. We prioritise clear communication so you know exactly what we can realistically achieve at short notice.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does furniture removal in Haringey cost?
Costs vary depending on the amount of furniture, access at each property, distance travelled and any additional services such as packing or dismantling. Smaller flat moves within Haringey are often priced on a set hourly rate for a vehicle and moving team, while larger house or office moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. We will ask a few simple questions, or carry out a short survey, then provide a clear written quote so you know exactly what is included before you decide.
Can you handle same-day or urgent furniture removals?
Where our schedule permits, we can arrange same-day or short-notice furniture removals in Haringey. Availability depends on the size of the move, the time of day and how many teams we already have booked. If you need an urgent move, call us as early as possible with the key details – addresses, access and main items to be moved. We will tell you honestly what we can do, the likely cost and any limitations, so you can make an informed decision under time pressure.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We carry goods in transit insurance to cover your furniture while it is being transported in our vehicles, and public liability cover for work carried out at your property. As with any insurance, certain limits and exclusions apply, which we are happy to explain before you book. We still prioritise preventing damage in the first place by using proper protection, careful handling and experienced staff, so we very rarely need to rely on our insurance.
What is included in your furniture removals service?
Our standard service includes a suitable vehicle, a trained moving team, loading, transportation, unloading and placing your furniture in your new property. We protect items with blankets and covers, secure them correctly in the van and handle them carefully at both ends. Optional extras include packing of smaller items, dismantling and reassembly of larger pieces, provision of packing materials and short-term storage by arrangement. Your quote will clearly list what is and is not included, so there are no surprises on the day.
How is a professional removals service different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van service may simply provide a driver and a vehicle, with little or no protection, planning or insurance. A professional removals service like ours offers trained staff, fully insured transport, proper equipment and a structured process from quote to completion. We plan access, protect your property, secure items in the vehicle and provide clear documentation. For valuable or irreplaceable furniture, and for larger or more complex moves, this level of care and organisation significantly reduces risk and stress.
How far in advance should I book my furniture removal?
For preferred dates and times, especially at weekends and month-ends, we recommend booking as soon as you know your moving date – ideally two to four weeks in advance for larger moves. Smaller or local jobs can sometimes be booked with less notice, and we will always try to help with last-minute requests where we have availability. Once booked, we stay in touch leading up to your move, and if your dates change, we will do our best to reschedule sensibly.

When you need to move today, you need a removals team that can react quickly, stay organised under pressure and still protect your belongings properly. Man and Van Haringey provides same day removals in Haringey and surrounding areas, delivered by experienced, professional, fully insured movers.
What Our Same Day Removals Service Includes
Our same day service is designed for moves that simply cannot wait. We combine the flexibility of a man-and-van with the structure of a professional removals company, so urgent moves are handled safely and efficiently.
Typical same day removals jobs include:
- Emergency flat or house moves in and around Haringey
- Last-minute room or student moves between local addresses
- Urgent office or small business relocations

- Decants and temporary moves for landlords and property managers
Every job, however urgent, is carried out by trained movers using proper equipment, protective materials and goods in transit insurance.
Local Same Day Removals Expertise in Haringey
Based in Haringey, we know the local area extremely well – the quickest cut-throughs, parking restrictions, narrow streets and access issues that can slow a move down.
Our local knowledge means we can:
- Plan realistic arrival times for same day bookings
- Advise on loading options where parking is limited
- Handle tricky access in older properties and conversions
- Work efficiently around schools, rush hour and events
This local experience is especially valuable when you are under time pressure and need the move completed the same day without unnecessary delays.
Who Our Same Day Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
For last-minute completions, chain changes or urgent completion dates, we provide rapid support so your household can be moved safely and on time. We protect furniture, white goods and personal belongings as carefully as we would on a pre-booked move.
Renters
Short-notice notices, landlord issues or a sudden decision to move – we help renters vacate and relocate quickly while keeping stress to a minimum. We can often collect keys, manage parking details and work around your schedule the same day.
Landlords & Letting Agents
We regularly support Haringey landlords with urgent clearances, tenant changeovers and decants. Our team can remove furniture and belongings quickly, leaving properties ready for cleaning, inspection or new tenants.
Businesses
For small offices, shops and studios, our same day removals can handle urgent relocations, equipment moves or temporary storage transfers. We move desks, filing, IT equipment and stock with care so downtime is kept to a minimum.
Students
Last-minute student moves between halls, house shares and storage are a regular part of our work. We move suitcases, boxes, bikes, small furniture and tech safely and efficiently – ideal if you need to be out of a room today.
What We Can Move on a Same Day Removal
Included Items
On a typical same day move, we can safely handle:
- Boxes, bags and personal belongings
- Sofas, armchairs and dining sets
- Beds, wardrobes and other flat-pack furniture
- Fridges, freezers, washing machines and cookers
- Office desks, chairs, filing cabinets and stock
- TVs, computers and general household electronics
Excluded or Restricted Items
For safety and insurance reasons, certain items are excluded or may require prior agreement:
- Hazardous materials (fuel, gas cylinders, chemicals)
- Unboxed loose liquids or paint
- Very high-value items such as fine art or jewellery (unless pre-agreed)
- Large commercial machinery or industrial equipment
- Animals or live plants in bulk
If you are unsure whether something can be moved on the day, we will clarify this during booking and suggest practical alternatives where possible.
Our Step-by-Step Same Day Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quick Quote
You contact us by phone or online with your move details: addresses, access, approximate volume and timing. We ask focused questions so we can give a clear, fair estimate and confirm whether a same day removal in Haringey is available.
2. Fast Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For most same day jobs we carry out a brief virtual survey using photos or video. This lets us assess volume, access (stairs, lifts, parking) and any special items. For larger properties nearby, we may be able to pop in for a quick onsite look if time allows.
3. Packing & Preparation
On arrival, we protect key items with covers, blankets and wrapping. Where agreed, we can provide packing assistance – especially for fragile or awkward items. We plan the load order so items are secure in transit and essentials are accessible at the other end.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained team loads the vehicle using trolleys, dollies and lifting straps where needed. We secure your belongings using ties and blankets to minimise movement. Vehicles used for same day removals are clean, well maintained and covered by goods in transit insurance.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new address we unload efficiently and place items into the rooms you request. We position larger items such as beds and wardrobes where you want them, and we are happy to follow your guidance on boxes and fragile belongings.
Transparent Same Day Removals Pricing
Same day moves can be unpredictable, so we keep our pricing structure simple and transparent. Costs are usually based on:
- Size of vehicle and number of movers required
- Travel distance between addresses
- Access complexity (stairs, parking, long carries)
- Any packing or dismantling services required
- Timing – especially for late evening jobs
We provide a clear quote before you confirm the booking, with any minimum charge explained upfront. There are no hidden extras – if a job looks likely to exceed the estimated time, we tell you in advance and agree how to proceed.
Why Choose Professional Same Day Removals Over DIY?
When time is tight, it can be tempting to try to move everything yourself or rely on a casual man-and-van. In reality, this often leads to damage, delays and stress. A professional removals team offers:
- Trained staff who know how to lift, carry and protect items properly
- Appropriate vehicles with securing points and removals blankets
- Goods in transit insurance for your belongings
- Public liability cover for work in and around your property
- Efficient planning so the move runs smoothly, even when booked at the last minute
This is particularly important in flats, tight stairwells and busy streets common in Haringey, where experience significantly reduces risks and disruption.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Man and Van Haringey operates to professional standards you would expect from an established removals company, not just a casual van hire service. We carry:
- Goods in transit insurance to protect your items while they are in our care
- Public liability cover for work in homes, communal areas and business premises
Our teams are trained in safe lifting techniques, loading methods and property protection. We use floor and door protection where needed and treat both your belongings and your property with respect at all times.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Even on same day moves, we do not cut corners on care:
- Furniture is wrapped or covered to minimise scuffs and marks
- Mattresses and sofas are protected from dirt and moisture
- Appliances are secured and carried upright where required
We also think about sustainability. Wherever possible we:
- Reuse strong boxes and protective materials
- Plan routes to reduce unnecessary mileage
- Offer responsible disposal options for unwanted items by arrangement
Real-World Same Day Removals Use Cases
Emergency House or Flat Moves
Sometimes circumstances change unexpectedly – a tenancy ending abruptly, a sudden sale completion, or an urgent need to move closer to family. We help households relocate quickly while keeping your belongings safe and organised.
Urgent Office & Business Relocations
Businesses may need to move premises at very short notice due to lease changes, building issues or growth. We support small offices and local retailers with rapid, structured moves aimed at minimising downtime.
Student and Short-Term Moves
Students and short-term renters often have tight deadlines to vacate rooms or halls. Our same day removals in Haringey are ideal for moving belongings between shared houses, storage and new accommodation, even when plans change at the last minute.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do same day removals in Haringey cost?
Costs depend on the size of your move, addresses, access and how many movers you need. For smaller same day jobs within Haringey, pricing is often based on an hourly rate with a minimum charge, plus any additional travel time. Larger or more complex moves may be quoted as a fixed price once we understand the volume and access. We will always discuss the likely cost with you upfront and confirm the rate before you commit, so you know exactly what to expect.
Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?
We do our best to accommodate genuine same day requests, but availability depends on existing bookings, vehicle sizes and crew numbers on that particular day. Calling as early as possible gives the best chance of securing a slot. If we cannot complete the entire move the same day, we may suggest a partial move, evening slot, or an early start the following morning. We will always be honest about what is realistically achievable in the time available.
Are my belongings insured during a same day move?
Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms and reasonable packing. We also hold public liability cover to protect against accidental damage to third-party property. We will explain the level of cover during booking and can highlight any exclusions, such as unpacked fragile items or high-value goods that require special arrangements. If you have specific concerns, let us know so we can advise on the best approach.
What is included in your same day removals service?
Our standard same day service includes vehicle and fuel, a trained moving team, loading, secure transport and unloading into your new property. We provide removal blankets and basic protection for furniture as standard. Additional services, such as packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, or disposal of unwanted items, can often be added depending on time and availability. During your initial enquiry we will clarify what you need and confirm exactly what is included in your quote so there are no surprises on the day.
How is a professional removal different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van may offer transport, but often without trained staff, proper insurance or structured planning. As a professional removals company, we provide trained movers, fully insured vehicles, protective equipment and a clear process from quote to completion. This reduces the risk of damage, injury and delays, especially on same day moves where there is little margin for error. You are also dealing with a business that is accountable for timings, standards and aftercare, rather than an informal arrangement.
How far in advance should I book, if I know I will need a same day move?
If you already suspect you will need a move at short notice, contact us as soon as possible, even if details are not final. We can pencil in provisional time, discuss options and advise what information we will need on the day. For genuine emergencies, the earlier in the day you call, the better our chances of finding a slot. We are used to working around last-minute confirmations and will always try to build a realistic plan that fits your time constraints.
Man and Van
Man and Van Haringey – Local, Professional Removals
At Man and Van Haringey, we provide a reliable, well-organised man and van service tailored to moves in and around Haringey. As experienced removals professionals, we focus on careful handling, clear communication and punctual arrivals, whether you are moving a single item or a full flat.
What Our Man and Van Service Includes
Our service is designed to bridge the gap between a basic van hire and a full-scale removals crew. You get an experienced driver and porter (or team), a clean, well-maintained van, and all the equipment needed for safe moving.
Typical Man and Van Jobs We Handle
- Small home moves – studios, one- and two-bed flats
- Partial house moves – selected rooms, bulky items, or overflow
- Student moves – term-time and end-of-lease relocations
- Office and small business moves – desks, IT equipment, archives
- Single-item and bulky deliveries – sofas, wardrobes, appliances
- Furniture collections – from shops, storage units or online purchases
Every move is carried out by a trained, professional team using blankets, straps and trolleys to protect your belongings and property.
Local Expertise in Haringey
Working daily across Haringey means we understand local streets, parking restrictions and building layouts. From Victorian terraces in Crouch End to high-rise flats in Wood Green and shared houses near Finsbury Park, we know the practical realities of loading, access and timings in this part of North London.
That local knowledge helps us plan routes to avoid congestion where possible, arrive on time, and liaise sensibly with building managers, concierges and neighbours. It also means honest advice on how long your move is likely to take and what size team you’ll need.
Who Our Man and Van Haringey Service Is For
Homeowners
If you’re moving between properties in or out of Haringey and don’t need a full-scale removal with multiple trucks, our man and van teams can manage smaller houses, part moves or phased moves – ideal if you’re renovating or decluttering.
Renters
Tenants moving between rented flats and houses often have tight schedules and strict check-out times. We provide flexible time slots, help with dismantling and reassembly of basic furniture, and careful protection of floors and walls to keep landlords satisfied.
Landlords
We assist landlords clearing properties between tenancies, removing old furniture, or delivering new items. We can coordinate key collection, work alongside cleaners and tradespeople, and help prepare a property for viewings or new tenants.
Businesses
Small offices, shops and local businesses use our man and van service for internal moves, relocations, stock runs and event setups. We handle IT equipment, boxed files, display units and more, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Students
Students in Haringey and nearby universities benefit from cost-effective shared loads, small-van options and weekend moves. We’re used to tight stairwells, shared houses and halls of residence, and we keep things straightforward and transparent.
What We Can and Can’t Move
Items Typically Included
- Household furniture – beds, sofas, tables, wardrobes, chests of drawers
- Boxes, bags, suitcases and personal belongings
- White goods – fridges, freezers, washing machines (disconnected)
- Electronics – TVs, computers, audio equipment
- Office furniture – desks, chairs, filing cabinets
- Garage and garden items – tools, bikes, outdoor furniture
Items Excluded or by Prior Agreement
For safety, legal or insurance reasons, some items are excluded or need prior discussion:
- Hazardous materials – gas cylinders, fuels, chemicals, paint thinners
- Illegal or stolen goods
- Live animals and pets
- High-value items (jewellery, cash, important documents) – best carried personally
- Very heavy industrial machinery or specialist equipment without prior survey
If you’re unsure about a particular item, we’ll clarify during the survey so there are no surprises on moving day.
Our Step-by-Step Man and Van Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with your addresses, dates and a rough list of items. We’ll ask about access (stairs, lifts, parking) and any special requirements. Based on this, we provide a clear quote outlining the hourly rate or fixed price, the size of van, and how many movers you’ll need.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a brief video or onsite survey. This allows us to see access routes, gauge volumes accurately and identify anything requiring extra care. A proper survey reduces the risk of delays and ensures we send the right size van and team.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or we can provide professional packing as an additional service. If you’re packing yourself, we’ll advise on box sizes, labelling and protecting fragile items. On the day, our team can dismantle basic furniture where needed, protect larger items with covers and secure appliances for transit.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained movers load your belongings systematically, using blankets, straps and trolleys to protect both items and property. We plan the load so that fragile and essential items are properly positioned. The van is then driven directly to your new address via the most efficient route, keeping you informed of timings.
5. Unloading & Placement
On arrival, we unload room by room, placing items where you want them in the new property. We reassemble any furniture we dismantled and position larger pieces so you can start settling in quickly. Before we leave, we do a final walk-through with you to confirm everything has been unloaded safely.
Transparent Pricing and How Costs Work
We believe in straightforward, transparent pricing. Most man and van moves are priced either by the hour with a minimum booking period, or as a fixed price agreed in advance following a survey.
Our pricing typically considers:
- Distance between addresses
- Volume and type of items
- Number of movers required
- Access issues (stairs, narrow hallways, long carries)
- Optional extras such as packing materials or packing service
We’ll always explain what’s included so you know exactly what you’re paying for. There are no hidden charges for things like fuel within the agreed area or standard use of moving equipment.
Why Choose Professional Man and Van Over DIY
Hiring a van and doing it yourself can seem cheaper, but it often leads to longer days, damaged items and unnecessary stress. With a professional man and van team:
- Your belongings are handled by people who move furniture every day
- We bring the right tools – trolleys, straps, blankets and basic tools
- We manage parking, loading order and safe lifting techniques
- You’re covered by goods in transit insurance and public liability
Compared to casual, unregulated operators, our service is planned, documented and fully insured, giving you peace of mind.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We operate to clear professional standards so you know your move is in safe hands.
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your belongings while they are in our vehicle, subject to policy terms and declared values.
- Public liability cover – protects against damage or injury caused in the course of our work.
- Trained moving teams – our staff are trained in manual handling, safe loading and customer care.
We provide written confirmation of cover on request and are always happy to explain how our insurance applies to your move.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Looking after your belongings and the environment are both important to us. We use reusable transit blankets, robust re-usable crates (where requested) and quality straps instead of excessive disposable materials. When we do supply boxes and packing materials, we aim for recycled or recyclable options wherever practical.
Inside your property, we protect vulnerable surfaces as needed and take care with corners, bannisters and doorways. Our vehicles are regularly maintained for safety and efficiency, and we plan routes sensibly to minimise unnecessary mileage.
Real-World Use Cases
Moving House Within Haringey
For a couple moving from a one-bed flat in Turnpike Lane to a similar property in Muswell Hill, a two-person man and van team can often complete the job in half a day. We handle the bulky items and boxes, leaving you free to focus on utilities, keys and paperwork.
Office Relocation
A small business moving from shared offices in Wood Green to a new space in Tottenham can use our service to relocate desks, chairs, computers and archives outside normal working hours. We label and organise items so you can resume work quickly in the new location.
Urgent or Same-Day Moves
Situations such as last-minute tenancy changes, urgent clearances or unexpected storage needs are common. Subject to availability, we offer same-day or next-day man and van support within Haringey, providing a practical solution when time is tight.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a man and van in Haringey cost?
Costs depend mainly on time, distance, access and how many movers you need. Smaller local moves may be priced by the hour with a minimum booking, while larger jobs are often quoted as a fixed price after a quick survey. To keep things fair, we ask for accurate information about your items and access so we can send the right van and team. There are no hidden extras for fuel within the agreed area or use of standard moving equipment.
Can you provide same-day or urgent man and van services?
Yes, where our schedule allows, we can offer same-day or short-notice man and van services in Haringey. Availability depends on how busy we are and the size of the move, but for smaller jobs we can often react quickly. Calling us as early as possible, with clear details of addresses, access and what needs moving, helps us confirm whether we can assist and provide an accurate price for the urgent booking.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicle, subject to policy terms and declared values. We also hold public liability insurance for work carried out at your property. We’ll explain what is and isn’t covered before you book, and we always encourage customers to move small, high-value personal items such as jewellery and important documents themselves for complete peace of mind.
What is included in your man and van service?
Our standard service includes a suitable van, a professional driver-mover (and extra porters where requested), protective blankets, straps and trolleys, plus loading, transport and unloading to the rooms you specify. We can also dismantle and reassemble basic furniture where needed. Optional extras, such as packing materials or a full packing service, can be added at your request. We’ll set out clearly in writing what is included in your quote so there is no ambiguity.
What’s the difference between removals and a man and van service?
A full removals service typically involves larger vehicles, bigger crews, comprehensive packing, and more planning support, suited to full house or large office moves. A man and van service is more flexible and cost-effective for smaller moves, partial loads and short distances. With us, you still get professional, fully insured movers, but the service is scaled to what you actually need, avoiding the cost of an unnecessarily large operation.
How far in advance should I book?
For weekend and month-end moves, we recommend booking at least two to three weeks in advance, as these dates fill quickly. For midweek or smaller jobs, a week’s notice is often sufficient, though we’ll always try to accommodate shorter notice where possible. The earlier you book, the better chance you have of securing your preferred date and time, and it also allows us to plan access, parking and any packing requirements properly.

Local Removal Van Experts in Haringey
Because we are based in Haringey, we understand the realities of moving locally – narrow streets, controlled parking zones, busy high roads and tight stairwells in older buildings. We plan vehicle size, crew numbers and access as part of our service, helping avoid delays and last-minute issues on moving day.
We regularly complete moves in areas such as Wood Green, Tottenham, Crouch End, Muswell Hill, Finsbury Park and Green Lanes, so we know the quickest routes and where extra care is needed for loading and unloading.

Our Step-by-Step Removal Van Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with basic details: addresses, property type, access information, dates and a summary of what needs to be moved. We ask clear questions and provide a transparent, no-obligation quote based on the size of the job, distance and any additional services required.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger or more complex moves, we carry out a short video or onsite survey. This allows us to assess furniture size, stairways, parking and any dismantling needed. It ensures we send the right size removal van and the correct number of trained movers.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can choose to pack yourself or request our packing service. If we are packing, we arrive with professional materials – boxes, tape, bubble wrap and furniture covers. Items are labelled logically so they can be placed in the correct rooms at your new address.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our team protects floors and bannisters where required, then loads the removal van carefully, securing items to prevent movement in transit. We use trolleys and lifting equipment to reduce manual handling risks. Your belongings are then transported directly to your new property using the most appropriate route.
5. Unloading & Placement
On arrival, we unload systematically and place items in the rooms you specify. We can reassemble basic furniture that we dismantled for the move and position larger pieces so you can start settling in straight away.
Transparent Removal Van Pricing
We believe in clear, upfront pricing. Our quotes are based on:
- Volume of belongings and size of removal van needed
- Number of movers required
- Travel distance and access complexity
- Optional extras such as packing, materials and furniture assembly
We provide fixed-price quotes for most moves, so you know in advance what you will pay. For smaller jobs or part loads, we may offer a simple hourly rate with clear minimum charges and no hidden extras. Parking costs and congestion or clean air zone charges are explained in advance where they apply.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van?
Hiring a friend with a van may seem cheaper, but it often leads to multiple trips, damaged items and unnecessary stress. With a professional removal van service you benefit from:
- Trained staff who understand lifting techniques, packing and loading
- Fully insured transport with proper documentation
- Correct vehicle size to reduce trips and protect belongings
- Reliable timings and agreed schedules
- Support with dismantling, reassembly and positioning
Ultimately, a professional team helps your move run smoothly, safely and on time, usually saving money and hassle overall.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Man and Van Haringey operates to clear, professional standards. For your peace of mind, we provide:
- Goods in transit insurance – protection for your belongings while they are in our care and on our vehicles
- Public liability cover – covering accidental damage to third-party property
- Trained moving teams – experienced staff familiar with safe handling and protective packing
We are happy to explain our cover and any limits in plain language before you book, so you understand exactly how your items are protected.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every move as if it were our own. Furniture is wrapped and protected, fragile items are clearly identified, and vans are loaded to minimise movement. Where possible we use reusable protective materials, durable crates and responsibly sourced packing supplies.
We also plan routes sensibly to reduce unnecessary mileage and group appropriate smaller jobs together when it makes sense, helping lower our environmental impact while still providing a reliable local service.
Real-World Use Cases for Our Removal Van Service
Moving House in Haringey
From terraced houses in Tottenham to flats in Crouch End, we regularly handle complete household moves. We manage all the lifting, dismantling and reassembly so you can focus on utilities, keys and paperwork.
Office and Shop Relocations
We help small and medium-sized businesses move premises with minimal downtime. Desks, chairs, stock and IT are labelled and placed correctly at the new site, helping you get back to work quickly.
Urgent and Same-Week Moves
Life does not always go to plan. If you face an eviction deadline, relationship breakdown or a last-minute completion, we will do our best to provide a short-notice removal van service, subject to schedule and crew availability.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a removal van in Haringey cost?
Costs vary depending on how much you are moving, the distance involved, access at each property and whether you need extra services such as packing or furniture assembly. Smaller moves may be charged at an hourly rate, while full house or office removals are usually priced as a fixed quote. To give you an accurate figure, we will ask a few questions or carry out a quick survey. There are no hidden charges, and any potential extras, such as parking fees, are explained in advance.
Can you provide same-day or urgent removal van services?
Same-day or very short-notice moves are sometimes possible, depending on existing bookings, crew availability and the size of your move. If you need urgent help, contact us as early as you can with full details so we can check our schedule and advise what is realistic. While we cannot guarantee last-minute slots, we will always try to offer a practical solution, even if that means an evening move or splitting the job across two sessions.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance that covers your belongings while they are in our care and on our vehicles, as well as public liability cover for accidental damage to third-party property. As with any policy, there are limits and exclusions, which we are happy to explain before you book. For very high-value or unusual items, we may recommend additional specialist cover or ask you to notify your home insurer so that everything is fully protected.
What is included in your removal van service?
Our standard service includes the removal van, fuel, a trained moving team, protective blankets and basic equipment such as trolleys and straps. We load your belongings, transport them to your new address and unload them into the rooms you specify. Optional extras include packing services, supply of packing materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and disposal or recycling of certain unwanted items. We will confirm exactly what is included in your personalised quote so there is no confusion on the day.
What is the difference between your removals service and a casual man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van is often just a driver with a vehicle, working on an ad-hoc basis. Our service is a structured, professional removals operation with fully insured vehicles, trained staff, proper equipment and documented bookings. We plan each move, carry out surveys when needed and follow clear procedures for loading, securing and handling your belongings. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and unexpected costs. For most customers, the small difference in price is easily outweighed by the added reliability and peace of mind.
How far in advance should I book a removal van?
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking as soon as your moving date is reasonably certain, typically two to four weeks ahead. Busy periods, such as month-ends and weekends, can fill quickly. However, we understand that moves are not always confirmed early, so we do hold some flexibility for shorter-notice jobs. Even if your date is not fixed, it is worth getting in touch so we can pencil you in and adapt the booking once your plans are finalised.

Local Expertise in Haringey
Working day in, day out in Haringey means we know the area extremely well. From Victorian terraces in Crouch End and flats in Wood Green to new-builds in Tottenham Hale, we are used to tight staircases, controlled parking zones and lift restrictions.
We plan routes carefully to avoid congestion where possible, arrange parking and loading in line with council rules, and coordinate with building management when needed. That local knowledge translates into a more efficient move, less risk of delays and better protection for your belongings.
Our Step-by-Step Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with basic details – where you are moving from and to, property type, approximate amount of belongings and your preferred move date. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote, outlining the services included. For straightforward smaller moves, we can often quote immediately based on your information and photographs.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger or more complex moves, we arrange a free virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to assess access, parking, staircases, lift use and the volume of items. A proper survey means fewer surprises on the day and an accurate quote so you know exactly what to expect.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can choose from:
- Full packing service – we supply materials and pack everything for you
- Partial packing – we pack fragile or bulky items, you do the rest
- Self-packing – you pack, we provide guidance and can supply materials
We use quality boxes, padding and wrap to keep items safe in transit. Furniture can be dismantled and reassembled where needed.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our trained team arrives on time with the right size vehicle and equipment. We protect floors and doorways where required, then carefully load your belongings in a logical order. Everything is securely strapped and padded in the van to minimise movement. We then transport your goods directly to your new address, or via agreed stops where needed.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination, we unload items into the rooms you specify. We place furniture where you want it, reassemble agreed items and remove used packing materials where part of the service. We do a final walkthrough with you to check everything is in place and that you are satisfied before we leave.
Transparent Pricing for Removal Services
We believe in straightforward, transparent pricing. Our quotes are typically based on:
- Volume of items and number of rooms
- Distance between addresses
- Access, parking and any special handling requirements
- Level of service – packing, dismantling, storage, etc.
- Day and time of the move (weekdays vs weekends or evenings)
For smaller moves, we may offer a fixed price or a clear hourly rate with a minimum charge. For larger house or office moves, we usually provide a fixed quotation so you know the total cost in advance. There are no hidden extras – any potential additional charges (such as congestion or parking fees) are explained upfront.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY
Hiring a professional removal service like Man and Van Haringey offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using an informal man-with-a-van:
- Safety – correct lifting techniques and equipment reduce the risk of injury
- Protection – proper packing, blankets and strapping protect your belongings
- Efficiency – experienced teams know how to load, route and manage time
- Insurance – your goods are covered under our removal insurance policies
- Reliability – confirmed bookings, written quotes and clear communication
DIY moves often end up taking longer, causing damage and creating unnecessary stress. A professional team helps the whole process run smoothly.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We take our responsibilities seriously. Our operations are backed by:
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your belongings while they are being moved
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to property or third parties
- Trained moving teams – staff are trained in handling, packing and safe working practices
We also work to clear procedures: agreed inventories where required, signed job sheets and documented instructions for special items. This ensures accountability and peace of mind from first contact to final box unloaded.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your belongings as if they were our own. This means using blankets, covers and wrap to protect furniture, careful handling of fragile items and sensible loading plans to avoid crushing or shifting in transit.
Where possible, we adopt a sustainable approach by:
- Using reusable moving blankets and crates for some moves
- Offering collection and reuse of good-quality boxes
- Planning routes to reduce unnecessary mileage and fuel use
We can also help separate out unwanted but usable items for charity donation or responsible recycling, helping to reduce waste during your move.
Real-World Use Cases
Moving House in Haringey
From small flats in Turnpike Lane to family homes in Muswell Hill, we handle full house moves of every size. We can manage everything from packing to reassembly so you can focus on settling into your new home.
Office and Business Relocations
For offices and shops, we work around your trading hours to minimise downtime. We can label and organise desks, IT equipment and files so your team can get back to work quickly after the move.
Urgent and Short-Notice Moves
Sometimes moves come up at short notice – a sudden completion date, a change of tenancy or an emergency situation. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day services, prioritising essential items and key furniture first.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do removal services in Haringey cost?
The cost depends mainly on how much you are moving, the distance, access conditions and the level of service you choose. Smaller local moves within Haringey may be priced on an hourly basis with a minimum charge, while full house or office moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. Packing, dismantling and unusual access (for example, no lift to higher floors) can affect the cost. We always provide a clear, written quotation before you book, so you know exactly what you will pay with no hidden extras.
Can you provide same-day or urgent removals?
Yes, where our schedule allows, we can often accommodate same-day or urgent moves within Haringey and nearby areas. This is more likely to be possible for smaller flats or part-load moves, but we will always do our best to help. Contact us as early as you can with details of what needs moving, from and to where, and your preferred times. We will confirm availability, provide a clear price and explain what we can realistically achieve within your timescale.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles, and we carry public liability insurance for work on site. This provides protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage or loss. We will explain the key terms, including any limits or exclusions, when you book. For particularly high-value or unusual items, we may recommend you check your own home or business insurance as well, so that everything is fully covered.
What is included in your removal service as standard?
As standard, we provide a vehicle of suitable size, a trained removals team, protective blankets, straps and trolleys, loading at your current property, transport to the new address and unloading into the rooms you specify. We can also include dismantling and reassembly of basic furniture by agreement. Packing services, packing materials, storage and disposal of unwanted items are optional extras which can be added to your quote. We will clearly list everything included so you know exactly what to expect on moving day.
How is a professional removal service different from a casual man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van may be suitable for a few items, but a professional removal service offers a higher level of protection and reliability. We provide written quotes, agreed timings, fully insured operations, trained staff and suitable equipment to protect your belongings and property. We also carry out surveys for larger moves, plan routes and access, and can offer packing and dismantling services. This structured approach reduces stress, minimises the risk of damage and keeps your move on schedule.
How far in advance should I book my removal in Haringey?
We recommend booking as soon as you have a firm move date, especially for Fridays, weekends and month-end, which are often the busiest times. For most home moves, two to four weeks’ notice is ideal and gives us time to plan properly. However, we understand that dates can change, particularly with property chains, so we try to be flexible. If your move is last-minute, contact us anyway – we will check availability and do everything we can to fit you in.
Storage
Secure Storage in Haringey with Man and Van Haringey
At Man and Van Haringey, we provide flexible, secure storage solutions for households and businesses across Haringey and the surrounding areas. Whether you are between properties, decluttering, renovating or relocating your office, we can collect, store and return your belongings safely, on a timescale that suits you.
Professional Storage Services in Haringey
Our storage service is designed to work hand-in-hand with our removals. We collect your items from your home or premises, carefully wrap and protect them, transport them to our trusted storage facility, and return them whenever you are ready. You do not need to hire a van, organise friends or worry about heavy lifting – we handle the entire process.
All storage is arranged locally by our professional, Haringey-based team, giving you a single point of contact and clear communication from start to finish. We understand the layouts of local streets, parking restrictions and access issues across Haringey, which helps keep moves into and out of storage smooth and efficient.
Who Our Haringey Storage Service Is For
Homeowners
If you are selling, buying, or renovating, short or medium-term storage can take the pressure off tight completion dates. Store surplus furniture, seasonal items or entire house contents while you complete your move or refurbishment.
Renters
For tenants between tenancies, moving back home temporarily or travelling abroad, our storage in Haringey keeps your belongings safe without paying double rent. We can collect directly from your flat and deliver to your new place when you have the keys.
Landlords
Landlords often need to store furniture during refurbishments, changeovers, or when switching between furnished and unfurnished lets. We can remove, store and later re-deliver items, minimising void periods and disruption to new tenants.
Businesses
Local businesses use our storage for archived files, surplus office furniture, exhibits, stock and equipment. It is a practical way to free up valuable office or retail space without committing to a long commercial lease. We can coordinate office removals and storage together for minimal downtime.
Students
Students in and around Haringey often need storage between terms or during placements. We offer compact, cost-effective solutions for boxes, luggage, small furniture and study equipment, with collection from halls or shared houses.
What We Can Store
Our storage solutions cover most domestic and commercial contents, including:
- Sofas, beds, wardrobes and other household furniture
- Boxes of clothes, books, documents and personal effects
- Kitchenware and small appliances
- Office desks, chairs, filing cabinets and IT hardware
- Shop fittings, displays and non-perishable stock
- Bicycles and small leisure equipment
Items We Cannot Store
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, there are some items we cannot accept into storage:
- Perishable or open food and drink
- Flammable, explosive or hazardous materials (including gas bottles, paints, solvents)
- Illegal items or substances
- Live plants or animals
- Unregistered firearms or weapons
- Cash, high-value jewellery, and important original documents (these are better kept in a safe or deposit box)
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise you clearly before collection.
How Our Storage Process Works
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with details of what you need to store, where from, and for how long. We ask a few practical questions about access, number of rooms and any special items. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote covering collection, storage and eventual redelivery.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger jobs or full properties, we recommend a survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit in Haringey. The survey allows us to assess volume, parking, access (stairs, lifts, narrow hallways) and any items needing extra protection. This ensures we send the right sized vehicle and crew and that your quote is accurate.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or we can provide a full packing service. Our team uses quality packing materials and wraps furniture with padded covers and protective materials. Fragile items are carefully packed and labelled to ensure they are stored and handled correctly.
4. Loading & Transport to Storage
On collection day, our trained team arrives at the agreed time. We protect floors and banisters where needed, dismantle larger furniture if required, and load your belongings safely onto our vehicles. Everything is securely strapped and protected for the short journey to storage.
5. Storage & Redelivery
Your items are placed into secure storage units, clearly labelled and inventoried. When you are ready, simply contact us to arrange redelivery. We bring everything back, reassemble furniture if we dismantled it, and place items in the rooms you choose.
Transparent Storage Pricing
We believe in clear, honest pricing. The total cost of storage generally includes:
- Collection from your property (labour and vehicle)
- Monthly or weekly storage charges based on the space required
- Optional packing materials and packing service
- Redelivery and unloading at the end of the storage period
Prices depend on volume, access, and duration. Longer-term storage can attract lower pro-rata rates, and combining removals with storage is usually more economical than arranging them separately. We set everything out clearly in writing before you commit, with no hidden extras.
Why Choose Professional Storage Over DIY
Using a professional removals and storage company in Haringey gives you significantly more protection and convenience than hiring a van and using a casual lock-up:
- No heavy lifting or risk of injury – our experienced team handles the loading.
- Purpose-built protection and packing methods to reduce damage.
- Goods in transit insurance and appropriate cover while in storage.
- Reliable, scheduled collection and delivery slots.
- Single point of responsibility – one company handles the whole process.
DIY options can look cheaper on paper, but after factoring in van hire, fuel, time off work, equipment and the risk of damage, using a fully insured, experienced team is often the wiser choice.
Insurance and Professional Standards
As an established Haringey removals and storage provider, we operate to high professional standards:
- Goods in transit insurance covers your belongings while we move them between your property and storage.
- Public liability cover protects against accidental damage to property during our work.
- Our crews are trained in safe lifting, packing, and handling of fragile and bulky items.
We can explain the limits and terms of cover clearly before the job, and you are welcome to ask about additional cover if you have particularly high-value items.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every item as if it were our own. Furniture is wrapped, mattresses are bagged, and delicate pieces receive extra protection. We label boxes clearly so that redelivery and placement are straightforward.
Where possible, we reuse sturdy packing materials, recycle cardboard and minimise unnecessary journeys by careful planning of our routes. This not only helps the environment but also keeps costs fair. We also encourage customers to declutter before storage so you only pay for space you genuinely need.
Real-World Storage Use Cases in Haringey
Moving House with a Gap Between Dates
When completion dates do not line up, we can move you out, store your contents, and then deliver to your new home when the keys are released. This avoids last-minute panic and rushed decisions about what to keep or throw away.
Office Relocation and Refits
Businesses undergoing refurbishment or moving to new premises use our storage for desks, chairs, files and equipment. We coordinate office removals so you can phase the move, keeping essential operations running while the new space is prepared.
Urgent or Short-Notice Moves
If you need to vacate a property quickly – for example, following a change of circumstances, a quick sale, or landlord requirements – we can often arrange urgent storage. Our team will remove and store your belongings safely, giving you breathing space to plan your next step.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does storage in Haringey cost?
Storage costs are based on the volume of your items, how easy access is at your property, and how long you need storage for. We charge separately for collection and redelivery, then a weekly or monthly fee for the storage itself. As a guide, storing the contents of a small one-bedroom flat will cost less than a full family home, and longer-term bookings may attract better rates. We will provide a detailed written quote so you know exactly what you are paying for before you decide.
Can you offer same-day or urgent storage?
Where our schedule allows, we can provide same-day or short-notice storage in Haringey, particularly outside of peak periods. If you are facing an urgent move-out date, contact us as early as you can with details of your property and contents. We will check vehicle and crew availability and give you an honest answer. Even if we cannot do everything the same day, we may be able to remove and store the most urgent items first, then complete the rest shortly after.
Are my belongings insured in storage?
Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while we are moving them between your property and the storage facility. Once stored, they benefit from the facility’s security measures and our arrangements, but it is important to understand any limits or exclusions. We explain our insurance cover clearly and can advise whether you should also notify your own home or business insurer. For very high-value items, additional specialist cover may be advisable, and we are happy to talk this through before you book.
What is included in your storage service?
Our standard storage service includes the collection of your goods by our professional team, loading, transport to the storage facility, secure storage, and eventual redelivery. You can add optional services such as packing, supplying boxes and materials, and dismantling or reassembling furniture. We also provide basic item labelling to help with organised redelivery. What is not included are prohibited items, insurance beyond our stated cover limits, and access to units without prior arrangement. We set out all inclusions and exclusions clearly in your quote and booking confirmation.
How is your service different from a casual man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van might move items cheaply, but often without proper insurance, training, or secure storage arrangements. Our service combines trained crews, fully insured transport, and vetted storage facilities. We use professional packing methods, specialist equipment and planned routes, reducing the risk of damage or delays. You also get clear documentation, agreed timeslots and a single point of responsibility. For most people, especially when storing an entire home or business, the added reliability and protection of a professional service more than justifies the difference in price.
How far in advance should I book storage?
Ideally, you should book as soon as you know your dates, especially during busy periods such as summer and month-end. One to three weeks’ notice generally allows us to carry out a survey if needed and reserve the right size unit and vehicle. However, we understand that plans can change quickly, and we do our best to accommodate shorter notice. The more information you can give us early on, the easier it is to guarantee your preferred dates and keep everything running smoothly.

We assist landlords with tenant clear‑outs, partial packing of stored items, and packing for refurbishment projects. We can separate and label items to be stored, reused, or disposed of responsibly.
Businesses
Offices, shops and small businesses in Haringey rely on us for professional commercial packing. We pack documents, IT equipment, stock and furniture, clearly labelling crates and boxes by department or area to minimise downtime during relocations.

Our Step‑by‑Step Packing and Moving Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact Man and Van Haringey by phone or online. We discuss your move date, property size, and how much you’d like us to pack. Based on this, we provide a clear, no‑obligation quotation outlining labour, materials and any additional services.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For anything more than a very small move, we typically carry out a short virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to see access, parking, and the volume and type of items to be packed. It means we turn up on the day with the right number of staff, the correct packing materials and appropriately sized vehicles.
3. Packing & Preparation
On the agreed date, our trained packing team arrives with all materials. We protect floors where needed, then work systematically room by room, carefully wrapping, boxing and labelling items. Furniture is protected with blankets and wrap; we can also dismantle straightforward items such as beds and tables by prior agreement.
4. Loading & Transport
Once packing is complete, our professional removals team loads everything into our vehicles, securing boxes and furniture to prevent movement in transit. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance during the journey. We then transport everything directly to your new address or to storage, depending on your plan.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination, we unload items into the rooms you specify, placing clearly labelled boxes in the right areas to make unpacking easier. Where agreed, we can reassemble straightforward furniture. We remove used materials such as blankets and tapes, leaving you with a tidy space and well‑organised boxes.
Transparent, Fair Pricing
We believe in honest, straightforward pricing for all packing work in Haringey. Our quotes typically consider:
- Property size and number of rooms
- Volume and type of items to be packed
- Level of service – full packing, partial packing, or fragile‑only
- Number of packers required and duration of work
- Quantity and type of boxes and packing materials supplied
We will explain exactly what is included, so you know what you are paying for and can compare like‑for‑like with confidence. There are no hidden extras for standard packing work, and any potential additional charges (such as long carries or difficult access) are discussed in advance.
Why Choose Professional Packing Over DIY
Doing your own packing may appear cheaper at first glance, but it often takes far longer than expected and can lead to breakages or last‑minute stress. Our professional, trained packers work quickly, use the right materials, and know how to protect fragile and awkward items effectively.
Compared with a casual man‑and‑van or DIY packing, you benefit from:
- Correct use of specialist packing materials and techniques
- Reduced risk of damage to your belongings and property
- Efficient packing that frees up your time for other move‑related tasks
- Better organisation, with clearly labelled boxes to simplify unpacking
- Cover under our goods in transit insurance when we move your packed items
Insurance and Professional Standards
As a established local removals operator, Man and Van Haringey maintains robust cover and high standards on every job:
- Goods in transit insurance – protecting your belongings while they are in our vehicles
- Public liability cover – for your peace of mind when we are working in your home or premises
- Trained, uniformed staff – experienced in safe lifting, packing and handling techniques
- Well‑maintained vehicles equipped with blankets, straps and trolleys
We handle your possessions as we would our own, with careful planning and attention to detail at every stage.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We aim to balance excellent protection for your belongings with responsible use of materials. Wherever practical, we:
- Use reusable removal blankets and durable crates for suitable items
- Provide strong, reusable boxes rather than flimsy single‑use cartons
- Offer box collection or recycling advice after your move
- Avoid over‑packing boxes to reduce the risk of damage and injury
We are also happy to advise on how to reuse any boxes you keep, and how to dispose of non‑reusable materials responsibly.
Real‑World Uses of Our Packing and Boxes Service
House Moves in Haringey
For local families and homeowners, we often provide a full pack on the day before moving. This leaves you free to focus on final cleaning, handing over keys and essential paperwork while we take care of the practical work of preparing your home for the move.
Office and Commercial Relocations
Businesses in Haringey use our office packing service to move with minimal downtime. We can pack after hours or at weekends, using a clear labelling system so staff can quickly find their equipment and files at the new site.
Urgent and Short‑Notice Moves
Sometimes moves need to happen quickly – a sale completes faster than expected, or a tenancy end date changes. Where our schedule allows, we offer short‑notice and urgent packing, bringing in a larger team to get you ready to move within tight timescales.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does your packing and boxes service cost?
Costs depend on the size of your property, the volume of items and the level of service you choose. A small flat with a partial packing service will be less than a full pack for a large family home. Our quotes clearly break down labour and materials, so you can see exactly what you are paying for. We offer options ranging from fragile‑only packing to complete house or office packing, allowing you to balance budget with convenience.
Can you offer same‑day or urgent packing in Haringey?
Where our diary allows, we can help with same‑day or urgent packing for moves in and around Haringey. Availability depends on the size of the job and how many packers are required, but we always do our best to accommodate genuine emergencies. If you are on a tight deadline, contact us as early as you can with details of your property and timescales. We will let you know what we can realistically achieve and provide a firm quotation.
Are my belongings insured while you are packing and moving them?
Yes. While your goods are in our vehicles, they are covered by our goods in transit insurance. We also carry public liability insurance for work at your property. As with any policy, there are limits and exclusions, which we are happy to explain before you book. For particularly high‑value items, we may recommend additional cover or special handling arrangements. Our aim is to combine careful, professional packing with appropriate insurance protection for your peace of mind.
What exactly is included in a typical packing and boxes service?
A standard service usually includes supply of quality boxes, packing paper, tape and bubble wrap; careful packing of agreed rooms or the whole property; protective wrapping for furniture; and clear labelling of all boxes. We can also provide wardrobe cartons for hanging clothes and specialist cartons for fragile or awkward items. You decide whether you want a full, partial or fragile‑only service. Dismantling and reassembly of simple furniture can be added by agreement, and we can combine packing with our removals service for a complete solution.
How is your service different from a basic man‑and‑van?
A casual man‑and‑van generally provides transport and labour only, with little or no specialist packing expertise. Our service is delivered by trained, professional movers using appropriate packing materials and proven techniques. We plan your move, protect your belongings, label everything clearly and carry suitable insurance. This reduces the risk of damage, saves you time and gives you a clear point of contact throughout. For many customers, the extra care and organisation more than justifies the modest difference in cost.
How far in advance should I book packing services?
For peak periods, such as summer and month‑end, we recommend booking packing at least two to three weeks in advance, especially for larger homes or office moves. Smaller jobs can sometimes be fitted in with shorter notice, but early booking gives you more flexibility on dates and start times. Even if your move date is not completely fixed, it is worth speaking to us as soon as possible so we can pencil you in and discuss options if things change.
Office Removals
Office Removals in Haringey by Man and Van Haringey
Moving office in Haringey or across North London? At Man and Van Haringey, we provide carefully planned, professional office removals designed to keep your business running with minimal disruption. With years of hands-on experience moving companies of all sizes, we know how to relocate your workspace safely, efficiently and on schedule.
What Our Office Removals Service Includes
Our office removals are a complete, end-to-end service tailored to your business needs. Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or moving to serviced offices, we can manage the whole process, including:
- Office furniture removals – desks, chairs, boardroom tables, storage units
- IT and electronics handling – PCs, monitors, printers, servers, phones
- Archive and file moves – labelled crates, confidential handling where required
- Packing and unpacking – using strong boxes, crates and protective materials
- Internal moves – reshuffling floors or departments within the same building
- Out-of-hours and weekend moves to reduce downtime
Every move is carried out by trained, uniformed teams using purpose-built removal vehicles and the right equipment for safe handling.
Local Office Removals Expertise in Haringey
Working day in, day out across Haringey and the surrounding boroughs, we understand the realities of moving offices in busy London locations. We are familiar with local parking restrictions, loading bays, building management requirements and common access issues around areas such as Wood Green, Tottenham, Muswell Hill and Crouch End.
We coordinate with building managers where needed, arrange suitable time slots, and plan vehicle access in advance. This local knowledge means fewer delays, smoother loading, and a more predictable moving day for your staff and clients.
Who Our Office Removals Service Is For
Although this service is focused on commercial and office moves, our structured approach works well for many types of customers in Haringey:
- Homeowners running small businesses from home who need to move both office and household items together.
- Renters moving from one rented office or studio to another, often on tight timescales.
- Landlords clearing or reconfiguring furnished offices between tenants.
- Businesses of all sizes, from single-room offices to multi-floor operations.
- Students and freelancers moving between co-working spaces, studios and shared offices.
If your move involves desks, computers, files or stock, we can adapt our office removals process to suit.
What We Can and Cannot Move
Items Typically Included
- Office desks, chairs, pedestals and meeting room furniture
- Filing cabinets, cupboards, shelving and storage systems
- Desktop computers, laptops, screens and peripherals
- Printers, photocopiers and standard office electronics
- Server racks and networking equipment (with prior notice)
- Archive boxes, document crates and general office contents
- Kitchen items such as kettles, microwaves and small fridges
Items Usually Excluded
For safety and legal reasons, some items are excluded or require special arrangements:
- Hazardous materials (fuels, chemicals, gas cylinders, paint thinners)
- Large industrial machinery beyond standard office use
- Highly valuable items such as fine art or large safes without prior agreement
- Perishable goods in quantity
- Animals or live plants in significant volume
If you are unsure about a particular item, mention it during your enquiry so we can advise or help you find a suitable specialist.
Our Step-by-Step Office Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with the key details: current and new addresses, access information, approximate volume of items and preferred dates. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining what is included, any optional extras, and an estimated timescale. We are transparent about costs from the outset.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For most office moves, we will arrange a short survey – either via video call or an onsite visit. This allows us to assess access, lifts, staircases, parking, and the quantity and type of items to be moved. A proper survey helps avoid surprises on the day and ensures we allocate the right number of trained movers, vehicles and packing materials.
3. Packing & Preparation
Depending on your preference, we can provide a full or partial packing service, or supply materials for your team to pack. We use strong crates and cartons, anti-static bubble wrap for IT equipment, and protective covers for furniture. Items are labelled clearly by department or room so they can be placed correctly at your new premises.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our professional crew arrives on time, protects floors and common areas where necessary, and loads your items systematically. Delicate IT equipment and important documents are loaded separately and secured. Our vehicles are equipped with straps, blankets and trolleys to keep everything stable in transit. We then transport your goods directly to the new site, following the agreed schedule.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new office, we unload in a controlled order, placing furniture, crates and equipment into the correct rooms or positions as agreed during planning. We can reassemble standard office furniture and position desks and chairs ready for use. Once everything is in place, we carry out a basic check-through with you to ensure nothing has been overlooked before we leave.
Pricing: Clear and Transparent
Office removals can vary widely in scope, so we price each move individually based on:
- Size of your office and quantity of items
- Access at both properties (stairs, lifts, parking distance)
- Distance between addresses
- Level of packing service required
- Day and time (standard hours vs evenings or weekends)
We explain our pricing structure clearly in writing, with no hidden extras. Any potential additional costs – such as parking charges or extended waiting times – are discussed in advance wherever possible.
Why Choose Professional Office Removals Over DIY
On the surface, organising your own van and asking staff to help may seem cheaper. In practice, it often leads to longer downtime, higher risk of damage and potential injury. Our service offers:
- Efficient planning – reducing disruption to your normal operations
- Proper equipment – trolleys, blankets, straps and protective covers
- Experienced handling – especially for IT, fragile and bulky items
- Insurance protection if something goes wrong
- Staff kept free to focus on their actual jobs rather than heavy lifting
Compared to a casual man-and-van arrangement, a structured office removal brings more accountability, planning and peace of mind.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your business assets are important, so we treat them with the respect they deserve. Man and Van Haringey is fully insured, with:
- Goods in transit insurance for your furniture, equipment and contents while they are being moved
- Public liability cover for work carried out in and around your premises
- Trained moving teams who know how to handle heavy, awkward and delicate items safely
We follow sensible health and safety procedures, use appropriate lifting techniques and equipment, and respect building rules and security protocols at all times.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We aim to move your office with maximum care and minimal waste. Protective floor coverings, door protectors and furniture wraps help prevent scuffs and damage at both ends of the move. We reuse strong crates and durable packing materials wherever possible and source recyclable materials for one‑use items. Routes are planned to minimise unnecessary mileage, helping to reduce our environmental impact while keeping your move efficient.
Real-World Office Removal Use Cases
- Office relocation within Haringey – moving from one local building to another with weekend packing and Sunday move to avoid disruption.
- Business upsizing – relocating to larger premises, including moving additional desks, new equipment and archived files in one coordinated project.
- Urgent or short-notice moves – reacting quickly when leases change unexpectedly or urgent building works are required.
- Hybrid working reconfiguration – reducing desk numbers, moving storage and reconfiguring meeting spaces to suit new working patterns.
Whatever your situation, we work with you to create a practical, realistic plan that fits your timelines and budget.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do office removals in Haringey cost?
The cost of an office removal depends on several factors: the size of your office, the volume of furniture and equipment, access at both locations, distance travelled, and whether you need packing services. Smaller local moves can sometimes be completed within a single day, while larger multi-floor offices may need phased work. After a brief discussion and survey, we provide a clear written quote outlining all expected costs, so you know exactly what you are paying for before you commit.
Can you handle same-day or urgent office moves?
Where our schedule allows, we can often help with same-day or short-notice office removals in Haringey. Urgent moves typically require flexible planning and may be limited by building access times, lift bookings and parking availability, but we will always be honest about what is realistic. If we can accommodate your date, we will work quickly to carry out a survey, confirm the scope, and organise a suitably sized team and vehicle so your essential equipment and furniture are moved safely and promptly.
What insurance cover do you provide?
We operate with both goods in transit insurance and public liability cover to protect you and your property during the move. Goods in transit insurance covers your office furniture, equipment and contents while they are being loaded, transported and unloaded by us. Public liability insurance provides cover for accidental damage to third-party property or injury in the course of our work. While we take great care to avoid incidents, this protection offers added reassurance that your business assets are not left exposed.
What is included in your office removals service?
Our standard office removals service includes a pre-move assessment, professional loading and unloading, protective blankets and coverings, transport between locations, and placement of items into the correct rooms or departments. We can also provide packing materials or a full packing and unpacking service if required. Furniture dismantling and reassembly of standard items can be included by agreement. We explain clearly what is covered in your quote, and highlight any optional extras so you can choose the level of support that best suits your business.
How is a professional office removal different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van service typically focuses on simple transport, often without detailed planning, surveys or specialist equipment. A professional office removal includes structured preparation, trained teams, appropriate insurance, and a clear plan for handling IT, confidential documents and heavy furniture. We liaise with building management, consider health and safety, and aim to keep your downtime to a minimum. In practice, this means fewer delays, less risk of damage or lost items, and a smoother experience for your staff on moving day.
How far in advance should I book an office removal?
Where possible, it is wise to contact us at least two to four weeks before your preferred moving date, especially if you require weekend or evening work. This allows time for a proper survey, coordination with your building management, and careful planning of packing and IT arrangements. However, we understand that business moves are not always predictable, and we will always do our best to accommodate shorter notice. The earlier you get in touch, the more options we can offer in terms of dates and timings.
Man with a Van
Man with a Van Haringey – Local, Professional Moving Help
At Man and Van Haringey, our man with a van service is a flexible, professional option for smaller moves, single items, and quick relocations across Haringey and North London. You get a trained mover with the right van, equipment and insurance, without paying for a full-size removals crew when you don’t need one.
What Our Man with a Van Service Includes
This service is ideal when a full removals team would be excessive. You still benefit from a professional, fully insured service, but with a leaner setup and lower cost.
Typical man with a van jobs
- Studio and small flat moves within or from Haringey
- Student moves to and from halls or shared houses
- Single-item transport (sofas, beds, wardrobes, appliances)
- Furniture delivery or collection from shops, auctions or storage
- Light office and small-business relocations
- Urgent, same-day moves and last-minute clear-outs
You can book us as man and van only (you help with lifting), or as a man with a van plus extra porter if you’d prefer us to handle the heavy work.
Local Haringey Expertise
We work in Haringey every day – from Muswell Hill and Crouch End to Tottenham, Wood Green and Green Lanes. Knowing the area well means we:
- Plan realistic arrival times in peak traffic and on event days
- Understand parking restrictions and controlled parking zones
- Manage tight streets, one-way systems and bus lanes safely
- Are used to stairs, mansion blocks and converted terraced flats
Because we’re local, short-notice bookings are often possible, and we can usually visit quickly if a brief onsite check is needed.
Who Our Man with a Van Service Is For
Homeowners
Perfect for moving a few larger pieces, clearing a room during renovation, or taking surplus furniture to storage. If your main move is already complete, we can handle the remaining odds and ends without the cost of a full removals crew.
Renters
Ideal for flat and house moves where you’re mostly packed already. We’ll move your furniture, boxes and appliances safely, navigating stairwells and tight hallways common in Haringey rentals, while protecting both your belongings and the property.
Landlords
We help landlords with quick changeovers: removing old furniture, delivering new items, or repositioning pieces between properties. Our professional approach and public liability cover give peace of mind when work is being done in your investment properties.
Businesses
For small offices, shops and start-ups, our man with a van service is a cost-effective way to move workstations, stock, displays or light equipment. We can schedule out of hours or at weekends to minimise disruption to your trading.
Students
Students moving to or from Haringey, or between London campuses, often only need a van and a hand. We keep this simple: a clear price, help with the lifting if needed, and careful handling of your essential belongings and electronics.
What We Can and Can’t Move
Items typically included
- Domestic furniture: beds, sofas, wardrobes, tables, chairs
- White goods: washing machines, fridges, freezers (emptied/defrosted)
- Personal items: boxes, suitcases, bags and small furnishings
- Electronics: TVs, computers, gaming equipment, audio gear
- Office equipment: desks, chairs, filing cabinets, boxed files
- Flat-pack and dismantled furniture
Items we generally exclude
- Hazardous materials (fuel, gas cylinders, chemicals, paint thinners)
- Illegal items or anything prohibited by law
- Unprotected high-value jewellery, cash or important documents
- Large industrial machinery or oversized commercial equipment
- Animals and live plants on longer journeys
If you’re unsure about any particular item, ask when you enquire and we’ll confirm whether we can safely and legally move it.
Our Step-by-Step Man with a Van Process
1. Enquiry & quote
You contact us with your addresses, preferred date, list of items and any access details (stairs, lifts, parking). We ask a few focused questions so we can recommend the right-size van, number of movers and an estimated time window. You then receive a clear, no-obligation quote.
2. Survey – virtual or onsite
For most man with a van jobs, a quick video call or photos are enough. For more complex moves (multiple floors, difficult access, or unusually heavy items), we may suggest a brief onsite survey in Haringey to avoid surprises on the day and ensure we send the correct team and equipment.
3. Packing & preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or we can provide packing materials at your request. On the day, we protect larger items with blankets, wraps and straps. Where needed, we can dismantle simple furniture (e.g. bed frames) and reassemble it at your new address.
4. Loading & transport
Our trained team loads your items methodically, securing everything for transport with straps and padding so nothing shifts in transit. We choose sensible routes across Haringey and London, always driving with care to minimise bumps and vibration during the journey.
5. Unloading & placement
At your destination, we unload into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it so you can settle in quickly. We’ll reassemble any items we dismantled, subject to prior agreement, and do a final walk-through with you before we leave.
Transparent Pricing Explained
We price our man with a van service either:
- By the hour – suitable for local, flexible moves, or
- As a fixed price – ideal when the inventory and timings are clear
Your quote will clearly state what’s included: number of movers, type of van, estimated duration, mileage and any additional services (packing, dismantling, extra stops). There are no hidden charges – any potential extras (e.g. congestion charges, extended waiting time) are explained in advance so you can budget confidently.
Why Use a Professional Man with a Van Instead of DIY
Hiring a van and doing it yourself seems cheaper, but often isn’t once you factor in fuel, time off work, equipment hire and the risk of damage or injury. With our service you benefit from:
- Trained movers who know how to lift and protect items safely
- Purpose-built vehicles with blankets, straps and trolleys
- Goods in transit insurance for your belongings
- Public liability cover for peace of mind at both properties
- Efficient loading so fewer journeys are needed
Compared with casual online ads, we are a registered business with clear terms, proper insurance and a track record in Haringey. That reduces stress and uncertainty on an already busy day.
Insurance and Professional Standards
All work is carried out under clear terms and with appropriate insurance:
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your items while they are in our vehicle, subject to policy limits and conditions.
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to third-party property during the move.
- Trained moving teams – staff are instructed in manual handling, safe loading and secure driving practices.
We are always happy to explain the scope of our cover so you understand precisely what is and is not insured, and can make any additional arrangements if needed for exceptionally high-value items.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every move as if it were our own belongings in the van. Furniture is wrapped, mattresses are covered where requested, and boxes are stacked to avoid crushing. We work carefully inside properties to prevent marks on walls, bannisters and floors.
Where possible, we reuse durable packing materials, reduce empty mileage by smart route planning, and recommend re-usable crates for regular business clients. We also encourage customers to recycle or donate unwanted items rather than sending everything to landfill.
Real-World Ways Customers Use Our Service
Moving house in Haringey
Many customers use our man with a van service for smaller home moves within Haringey – for example, moving from a one-bed flat in Wood Green to a studio in Crouch End. With a focused inventory and our help loading and unloading, the entire move can often be completed in a morning or afternoon.
Office and small business relocations
For micro-businesses, therapists, consultants or shop units, a compact, well-managed move is all that’s needed. We can shift desks, chairs, computers and boxed files between premises, timed outside your opening hours so you’re ready to work again the next day.
Urgent and last-minute moves
Life doesn’t always run to plan. We regularly help with urgent relocations due to tenancy changes, relationship breakdowns or unexpected deadlines. If we have availability, we can often arrange same-day or next-day man with a van support across Haringey and nearby areas.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a man with a van in Haringey cost?
Costs depend on the size of van, number of movers and the time required. For local moves we often work on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, while straightforward jobs can be priced as a fixed fee. Factors such as stairs, heavy items, distance between addresses and parking all affect the final cost. The best approach is to give us a clear list of items and access details so we can provide a transparent quote before you book.
Can you provide same-day or urgent man with a van help?
Yes, subject to availability. Because we’re based in and around Haringey, we can often respond quickly to urgent requests, especially on weekdays. Same-day moves are more likely to be possible if you’re flexible on time and van size. Call us as early as you can, explain what needs moving and by when, and we’ll confirm whether we can help, along with an honest estimate of how long the job is likely to take.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes, our vehicles carry goods in transit insurance, which provides cover for your items while they are being transported, within the policy limits and terms. We also hold public liability insurance in case of accidental damage to third-party property. We still handle everything with great care, as insurance is a safety net rather than a substitute for good practice. If you have unusually high-value items, let us know in advance so we can advise on the most appropriate arrangements.
What’s included in your man with a van service?
Our service includes a suitable van, at least one professional mover, protective blankets and securing straps, plus loading, transport and unloading at the agreed addresses. We can also provide additional movers, basic dismantling and reassembly, and packing materials if requested in advance. The exact inclusions will be set out clearly in your quote, so you know what we’re providing and what you’re expected to handle yourself, such as packing boxes or arranging parking permits where required.
How is this different from a full removals service?
A man with a van service is a streamlined version of a full removal. You still get a trained, fully insured team, but typically fewer movers and a smaller vehicle, making it ideal for lighter moves. Full removals usually involve more staff, larger vehicles, comprehensive packing options and more detailed planning, suitable for larger homes and offices. If you’re unsure which you need, we’ll discuss your inventory and timescales and recommend the most cost-effective and practical option for your situation.
How far in advance should I book?
For weekends and month-end dates, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks ahead, as these periods are particularly busy in Haringey. For mid-week or off-peak days, a few days’ notice is often enough. That said, we do our best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever our schedule allows. The earlier you contact us, the better chance we have of offering your preferred time slot and ensuring we allocate the right van and team for your move.
Removal Companies
Removal Companies in Haringey – Man and Van Haringey
At Man and Van Haringey, we provide a reliable, fully managed removals service for homes and businesses across Haringey and the surrounding North London area.

Our Haringey Removals Service Explained
We offer a complete removals service, not just a van and a driver. Our trained team plans your move, protects your belongings, and transports everything safely to your new property. Whether you are moving two streets away in Haringey or across London, we take care of the heavy lifting, logistics and timings so you can focus on settling in.
Unlike basic man-and-van services, we provide structured move planning, optional packing, and full protection for your furniture and property. Every move is tailored to your access, timings and specific requirements.
Local Expertise in Haringey
Being based in Haringey means we understand the area’s roads, parking restrictions and property types very well. From Victorian terraces in Crouch End and Harringay Ladder flats, to new-build developments and council estates, we know the common access issues, narrow staircases and loading spots that can catch other removal companies out.
We regularly work with Haringey Council permits, controlled parking zones and busy high streets. Where needed, we can advise on arranging parking suspensions and loading bays in advance to keep your move running smoothly and legally.
Who Our Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or moving out of the area, we provide a careful, well-organised service for full house and flat moves. We are used to working to completion day deadlines and coordinating with estate agents and keys collection.
Renters
We regularly help tenants moving between rented flats and houses across Haringey. We work neatly and respectfully, helping you leave your old property in good condition for check-out, and positioning furniture correctly in your new home.
Landlords
Landlords and letting agents use us for part-load removals, end-of-tenancy clear moves, and transporting furniture between properties. We can remove and relocate beds, wardrobes, white goods and general furnishings efficiently, even at short notice.
Businesses
We support office removals, shop moves and small commercial relocations across Haringey. We are used to handling desks, IT equipment, stock and filing securely and discreetly, with minimal downtime for your team.
Students
For students moving into or out of halls and house shares, we provide cost-effective student removals. We can handle single-room moves, shared flats and partial loads with flexible, short-notice bookings.
What We Can and Cannot Move
Items Typically Included
- Household furniture – beds, sofas, wardrobes, tables, chairs
- Appliances – washing machines, fridges, freezers (defrosted), cookers
- Boxes of clothes, books, kitchenware and personal items
- TVs, computers, monitors and standard home electronics
- Office furniture, filing, boxed documents and stock
- Garage contents, tools, bikes and outdoor furniture (clean and dry)
Items We Generally Exclude
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we usually cannot move:
- Hazardous materials – paint, solvents, fuel, gas cylinders
- Live animals or pets
- Illegal items or substances
- Industrial machinery beyond standard commercial equipment
- Large pianos or specialist items without prior agreement
- Unboxed loose small items that cannot be safely carried
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, ask us during your survey and we will advise or suggest alternatives.
Our Step-by-Step Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You get in touch with basic details: addresses, property type, number of rooms, any special items and your preferred move date. We then provide a clear, no-obligation estimate. For straightforward smaller moves, this can often be done by phone or email with a short checklist.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger or more complex moves, we carry out a brief survey – either via video call or in person. This lets us assess access, parking, stairs, lifts and volume of items. Accurate surveys mean we allocate the right van size, number of movers and time, keeping your costs fair and avoiding surprises.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can choose between:
- Packing service – our team professionally packs your belongings in quality boxes and materials.
- Part-packing – we pack breakables and larger items while you handle the rest.
- Self-packing – you pack your items; we supply materials on request.
Furniture is protected with blankets and covers; wardrobes and beds can be dismantled and reassembled where agreed.
4. Loading & Transport
On move day, our trained team arrives on time, walks through the plan with you, and starts loading in an organised order. Items are secured in the van using straps and protective materials. We drive directly to your new property using sensible routes and realistic timings, taking care to protect your goods in transit.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new address, we unload room by room according to your instructions. Furniture is placed where you need it, and items marked as fragile are handled with extra care. If we have dismantled furniture, we can reassemble it as agreed in your quote. Before we leave, we check that nothing has been missed from the van.
Transparent Pricing – How Our Removals Are Costed
We aim to keep pricing simple and transparent. Quotes are based on:
- Volume of goods and number of rooms
- Access and distance between properties
- Number of movers and size of vehicle required
- Optional services such as packing or furniture assembly
- Timing – weekday vs weekend, standard vs out-of-hours
Your written quote sets out what is included, any assumptions, and any optional extras. There are no hidden call-out fees. If your situation changes, we will revise the quote in advance so you always know where you stand.
Why Use a Professional Removal Company Instead of DIY?
Moving yourself or relying on a casual man-and-van can seem cheaper, but often ends up costing more in damage, delays and stress. As a professional removal company, we bring:
- Experienced, trained movers used to stairs, awkward items and tight access
- Proper protective materials and safe loading techniques
- Correct-sized vehicles and adequate manpower
- Reliable timings, confirmed bookings and clear communication
- Insurance cover that informal operators typically do not provide
The result is a smoother move, fewer breakages, and less physical strain on you and your family or colleagues.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We operate to clear professional standards to protect you and your belongings:
- Goods in transit insurance – covering your items while being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms.
- Public liability cover – protection in the unlikely event of damage to third-party property or injury during our work.
- Trained moving teams – all staff are briefed on safe handling, lifting techniques and customer care.
We are happy to outline coverage levels and limitations on request and can advise on additional cover for particularly high-value or specialist items.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat your belongings and properties as if they were our own. Floors and bannisters can be protected where needed; furniture is wrapped and secured; and boxes are stacked to avoid crushing. Thoughtful planning reduces the risk of damage on both sides of the move.
We are also conscious of our environmental impact. Where possible, we:
- Reuse and recycle packing materials
- Encourage the return of reusable crates and boxes
- Plan efficient routes to minimise unnecessary mileage
- Offer clearance options that prioritise reuse and recycling over landfill
Real-World Use Cases
Moving House in Haringey
Typical family moves involve three to four bedrooms, loft contents and garden items. We often split these into a packing day followed by a move day, working alongside your completion and key handover timetable.
Office and Business Relocations
For businesses, we can schedule moves outside normal office hours to reduce downtime. Desks, chairs and IT equipment are labelled and placed according to your new floor plan, helping your team get back to work quickly.
Urgent and Short-Notice Moves
Last-minute completion changes, tenancy deadlines or urgent clearances are part of life. Subject to availability, we can often provide same-day or next-day removals within Haringey, prioritising essential items and key furniture to get you functional fast.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a removal in Haringey cost?
Costs vary depending on the size of your property, access, distance and the level of service you choose. A small flat move within Haringey will usually cost less than a multi-bedroom house move with full packing. We price each job individually based on a clear list of items and requirements, so you only pay for what you need. After your enquiry and, if required, a survey, we provide a written, itemised quote with all expected charges set out in advance.
Can you do same-day or urgent removals?
Yes, we can often accommodate same-day or short-notice moves within Haringey, particularly for smaller flats, student rooms or partial loads. Availability depends on our schedule and the size of the move, so it is always best to call as soon as you know you need help. For urgent moves, we focus on the essentials first – key furniture, important boxes and any time-sensitive items – and agree a realistic plan with you so everything is handled safely, not rushed.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
We provide goods in transit insurance for items we transport, alongside public liability cover for our activities at your properties. This offers protection in the unlikely event of damage or loss, subject to policy terms and conditions. We will explain what is and is not covered, and any requirements such as proper packing of fragile items. For particularly high-value belongings, you may wish to notify us in advance or discuss additional cover with your home insurer for complete peace of mind.
What is included in your removals service?
Our standard service includes a suitable vehicle, a trained removals team, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. We protect furniture with blankets and securing straps, and place items into the correct rooms as directed. Optional extras include packing services, supply of boxes and materials, furniture dismantling and reassembly, and disposal of unwanted items by prior arrangement. Your written quote will list exactly what is included for your particular move, so there is no confusion on the day.
How is a professional removal company different from a basic man-and-van?
A basic man-and-van service usually provides transport only, with limited help, no formal survey and often no meaningful insurance. As a professional removal company, we assess your needs in advance, plan vehicle size and staffing properly, protect your property and belongings, and work to agreed timings. Our team is trained in safe lifting and handling, and we carry appropriate insurance. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and disputes, and typically provides far better value for money once everything is considered.
How far in advance should I book my removal?
For most moves, booking two to four weeks in advance gives the best choice of dates and allows time for surveys, packing and parking arrangements. During busy periods such as the end of the month or summer, earlier booking is advisable, especially for larger homes and offices. That said, we regularly help clients on much shorter notice when plans change unexpectedly. Even if your dates are not fixed yet, it is worth contacting us early so we can pencil you in and advise on the best way to plan your move.

Local Expertise in Haringey
Working daily in Haringey means we know the area inside out – from controlled parking zones and loading restrictions to the tight stairwells in older properties. We regularly move customers in areas such as Wood Green, Tottenham, Crouch End, Muswell Hill and Finsbury Park.
That local knowledge helps us choose the right vehicle size, avoid traffic pinch points and arrange parking suspensions where needed, reducing delays on moving day.
Who Our Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
If you are moving to or from a house in Haringey, we can manage full-property removals including furniture, white goods, garden items and garages. We work closely with your schedule, especially when completion dates are tight.
Renters
Flats and rented homes often involve stairs, lifts and strict move-out times. We protect walls and communal areas, follow building rules and help you leave the property in good condition for your check-out.
Landlords
We assist landlords with tenant changeover removals, partial clearances and moving furniture between properties. Flexible slots and clear communication help keep void periods down.
Businesses
For small offices, shops and studios, we provide office removals that minimise downtime. We move desks, filing, IT equipment and stock, and can schedule out-of-hours or weekend moves on request.
Students
Students in Haringey benefit from a simple, budget-conscious service for moving between halls, shared houses and storage. We can handle small loads efficiently and at clear, fair rates.

If you are unsure about a specific item, we are happy to advise before booking.
Our Step-by-Step Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with basic details: addresses, property type, access and an idea of what needs moving. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the information you share, explaining what is included so there are no surprises.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger or more complex moves, we carry out a short survey – either via video call or in person. This helps us assess volume, access, parking and any special care items. With a proper survey, we can send the right team size, vehicle and equipment.
3. Packing & Preparation
Before moving day, you can choose:
- Full packing service – we pack everything using quality materials
- Partial packing – for fragile or high-value items only
- Self-packing – you pack, and we supply boxes and materials if required
We label boxes clearly and prepare furniture for safe transport.
4. Loading & Transport
On the day, our trained team arrives on time, carries out a quick walk-through with you, and then loads the van systematically. We use padded blankets, straps and covers to protect furniture and secure everything for the journey. Your goods are then transported directly to your new address, unless otherwise agreed.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload items into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it. We reassemble agreed items and check that everything is off the vehicle and accounted for before we leave.
Transparent Pricing for Removals in Haringey
We aim to keep pricing straightforward and fair. Costs are typically based on:
- Volume of items and size of vehicle required
- Number of movers needed
- Travel distance between addresses
- Access and any stairs or long walks
- Optional extras – packing, materials, furniture assembly
We provide clear written quotes so you know exactly what you are paying for. There are no hidden charges for basic protective equipment or standard insurance cover.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY
Hiring a professional removals team offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using a casual man-and-van:
- Safety – trained movers reduce the risk of injury and damage
- Efficiency – experienced loading and route planning save time
- Protection – proper padding, wrapping and stacking techniques
- Insurance – cover in place if something does go wrong
- Reliability – confirmed bookings and written terms
For most people, especially with full homes or offices, a professional removal saves a great deal of stress and disruption.
Insurance and Professional Standards
We take our responsibilities seriously and operate to clear professional standards:
- Goods in transit insurance – covering your belongings while they are being moved
- Public liability cover – protection in the unlikely event of damage to property or third parties
- Trained moving teams – experienced staff trained in lifting, loading and customer care
- Clean, well-maintained vehicles equipped for removals work
- Written confirmations and agreed dates and times
Details of cover and limits are available on request so you can understand exactly how you are protected.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We know your belongings have both financial and sentimental value. We handle items carefully, using protective blankets, mattress covers and floor protection where required. Fragile items are wrapped and secured, and we plan the loading order to keep everything stable in transit.
We also aim to work responsibly: reusing packing materials where safe to do so, offering reusable crates for some moves, and planning routes to reduce unnecessary mileage and fuel use.
Real-World Use Cases
Moving House Within Haringey
From a terraced house in Tottenham to a semi-detached in Muswell Hill, we manage full domestic moves, coordinating with your completion times and working efficiently around narrow streets and parking restrictions.
Office Relocation
For small and medium-sized offices, we plan moves around your business hours, moving furniture, IT and files with minimal downtime. We can work evenings or weekends if agreed in advance.
Urgent or Short-Notice Moves
Life does not always give much notice. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day removals for urgent situations, such as last-minute tenancy changes or emergency relocations.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do removals in Haringey usually cost?
The cost depends mainly on how much you are moving, the distance between addresses and the access at each property. Smaller flat moves may be priced on an hourly basis, while full house or office removals are usually quoted as a fixed price. Optional services like packing and furniture assembly add to the cost but can save significant time and effort. We always provide a clear, itemised quote before you commit, so you know exactly what is included.
Can you do same-day or urgent removals?
Same-day or urgent removals are sometimes possible, depending on our existing bookings and the size of your move. Smaller flat or student moves are easiest to accommodate at short notice. For larger properties, we may still help on an urgent basis, but availability will vary. If you need a quick turnaround, contact us as early as you can with full details. We will let you know realistically what we can do and offer the soonest suitable slot.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance for items while they are being moved in our vehicles, together with public liability cover for incidents involving property or third parties. This is designed to give you peace of mind if something unexpected happens. There are limits and exclusions, as with any policy, so we are happy to explain the cover in plain terms before you book, and advise on any special requirements for particularly high-value items.
What is included in your removals service as standard?
Our standard removals service includes the vehicle, fuel, a trained team of movers, loading and unloading, and basic protective equipment such as blankets and straps. We place items in the rooms you choose and can handle straightforward dismantling and reassembly of common furniture by prior agreement. Optional extras include full or partial packing, provision of boxes and materials, and more complex furniture or appliance work. All inclusions are clearly set out in your written quote before you confirm the booking.
How is a professional removal different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van usually provides transport and some lifting, but may not offer formal insurance, trained staff or written guarantees. A professional removals service, like ours, focuses on careful planning, protection of belongings, reliable timekeeping and clear terms of business. We use vehicles equipped specifically for removals, provide documented insurance cover, and follow proven methods for lifting and loading. For small, simple moves a basic man-and-van might be enough, but for most home or office moves, a professional service is a safer choice.
How far in advance should I book my removal?
For the best choice of dates, especially at weekends and month-end, we recommend booking two to four weeks in advance. That said, we understand that exchange and completion dates can move, so we try to be flexible where possible. If your plans are uncertain, we can still provide a provisional quote and discuss likely dates. For short-notice moves, contact us as soon as you know you are moving and we will do our best to fit you in.
