Who Our Same Day Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
Last-minute completion, chain issues or a mover cancelling on you can create real pressure. We can step in on the same day to move the contents of houses and bungalows, handling furniture, appliances and personal items with care.
Renters
If your landlord needs the property back sooner than expected or you’ve found a better place at short notice, we can move you quickly between rented properties, including upper-floor flats with tricky access.
Landlords & Letting Agents
We assist landlords with urgent clearances, tenant changeovers and partial removals, making properties ready for new occupants with minimal downtime.
Businesses
From small offices to shops and studios, we offer same day office and commercial removals to minimise disruption. We can move desks, IT, stock and equipment with proper protection and labelling.
Students
Students often need quick moves at the start or end of term. We provide affordable, efficient moves for rooms, studio flats and shared houses.
What We Can Move on the Same Day
Our vans are equipped for a wide range of household and commercial items, including:
- Sofas, beds, wardrobes and other large furniture
- White goods – fridges, freezers, washing machines, cookers
- Boxes, bags, suitcases and personal items
- Office desks, chairs, filing cabinets and storage
- IT equipment, printers and small electronics
- Garden furniture, tools and outdoor items
Items We Cannot Move
For safety, legal or insurance reasons, we cannot carry:
- Hazardous materials (fuel, gas bottles, chemicals, paint thinners)
- Illegal items or substances
- Live animals (including pets and livestock)
- Perishable or frozen food on longer journeys
- Large industrial machinery or items exceeding safe lifting limits
If you’re unsure about a particular item, ask us when you enquire and we’ll advise you clearly.
Our Step-by-Step Same Day Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quick Quote
Call or message us as soon as you know you need a same day move. We’ll ask key questions about addresses, access, number of rooms, main furniture items and timing. Where possible, we provide an immediate, clear estimate with no hidden extras.
2. Fast Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For many same day removals, we carry out a quick virtual survey via photos or video call to confirm volume, access and any special requirements. For larger or more complex moves and where time permits, we may visit briefly onsite in Addiscombe to plan the best approach.
3. Packing & Preparation
You may have already packed some items, but our teams can help complete essential packing on arrival. We bring blankets, shrink wrap and basic packing materials. On same day jobs, we focus on safe, efficient preparation of furniture and key items: dismantling where necessary, wrapping fragile pieces and labelling clearly.
4. Loading & Transport
Your belongings are loaded methodically to maximise space and minimise movement in transit. We use straps, blankets and protective covers to secure everything. Our professional drivers know the Addiscombe area well, choosing sensible routes and keeping you informed of progress.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new address, we unload into the rooms you specify. Beds, wardrobes and other furniture can be reassembled where agreed. We work carefully around walls, floors and doorways to avoid damage, and we only leave once you’re satisfied that all agreed items are in place.
Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals
Same day removals can be more time-sensitive, but our pricing remains clear and fair. Costs are typically based on:
- Volume of goods and number of rooms
- Number of movers required
- Travel distance between properties
- Access factors (flights of stairs, long walks, parking issues)
- Any additional services such as packing or dismantling
We’ll explain all charges before you confirm the booking so you know exactly what to expect. For urgent work, we confirm any out-of-hours or premium time rates upfront, with no surprise fees at the end.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van?
When you’re under time pressure, cutting corners can become costly. Choosing a professional removals company instead of a casual man-and-van or DIY move offers several advantages:
- Trained movers who know how to lift, carry and protect heavy or fragile items properly
- Appropriate vehicles with internal securing points and protective equipment
- Fully insured services, giving you financial protection if something goes wrong
- Planned, methodical loading and unloading to avoid breakages and delays
- Reliability – confirmed arrival times and written booking details
DIY moves often underestimate the time, effort and risk involved. With us, you gain efficiency, safety and peace of mind, especially on a stressful same day move.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Man with Van Addiscombe operates to clear, professional standards. We are:
- Fully insured with goods in transit cover for your belongings while they’re in our vehicle
- Backed by public liability insurance to protect you and your property
- Staffed by trained, experienced moving teams who handle items correctly
We can talk you through the specific cover limits and conditions when you book, and we’ll advise on any high-value or specialist items that may need additional protection or disclosure.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Even when time is tight, we never compromise on care. We use padded blankets, mattress covers and floor protection where appropriate to keep both your goods and your home safe.
We also work to minimise waste and environmental impact by:
- Reusing durable packing materials where hygiene allows
- Maximising vehicle capacity to reduce unnecessary trips
- Planning sensible routes to cut fuel use
Our aim is a move that’s fast, safe and as considerate as possible.
Real-World Same Day Removals Use Cases
Moving House at Short Notice
Chain changes or solicitor delays can leave you needing to move all your belongings at very short notice. We’re used to stepping in, coordinating with your timings and keeping the day running smoothly.
Urgent Office Relocation
If your business must vacate premises quickly or seize an opportunity on a new space, we can move core equipment and furniture on the same day, helping you get back up and running quickly.
Emergency or Unexpected Situations
Flooding, structural issues or urgent repairs sometimes mean leaving a property fast. Our responsive teams can remove and protect key belongings, placing them into temporary accommodation or storage as needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do same day removals in Addiscombe cost?
Costs depend on the size of your move, distance between properties, access and how many movers are required. Same day work can involve premium rates due to the urgency and scheduling, but we always explain pricing clearly before you commit. Smaller flat moves may be charged by the hour, while larger house or office moves are usually priced as a fixed job. Contact us with a quick list of rooms and key furniture items, and we’ll give you an accurate, no-obligation estimate.
Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?
We can often accommodate same day removals in Addiscombe, but availability depends on our schedule and the size of the job. For smaller moves and partial loads, we can usually respond very quickly. Larger whole-house or office moves may be possible the same day if we have suitable crews and vehicles free. The earlier you contact us, the better chance we have of fitting you in. If same day is not realistic, we’ll offer the earliest available slot and honest guidance.
Are my belongings insured during a same day move?
Yes. Your items are covered under our standard goods in transit insurance while they’re in our vehicle, and we hold public liability insurance for work at your properties. Insurance is the same whether the move is booked weeks in advance or on the same day. We’ll outline the cover limits, any exclusions and how they apply to your specific move when you book. For particularly high-value or unusual items, we may recommend you inform your own insurer or arrange additional cover if required.
What’s included in your same day removals service?
Our core service includes a vehicle sized for your move, a trained crew, loading, transport and unloading into your new home or premises. We supply blankets, straps and basic protection for furniture and fragile items. Subject to time and prior agreement, we can also dismantle and reassemble standard furniture and disconnect simple appliances. Packing materials and full packing services can be included where feasible on the day, or arranged separately. We’ll confirm exactly what’s included in writing before your move goes ahead.
How is a professional same day removal different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van may suit very small, low-risk jobs, but often lacks formal training, proper insurance and structured planning. Our service is delivered by professional, trained teams with the right equipment, vehicle insurance and goods in transit cover. We provide clear quotes, booking confirmations and agreed arrival windows. On the day, we manage loading order, protection and safe lifting to reduce breakages and injury. This level of organisation is particularly important when everything must be completed in a single, time-pressured day.
How far in advance do I need to book a same day removal?
For same day moves, contact us as soon as you can – ideally first thing in the morning. The more notice we have, even within the same day, the easier it is to allocate the right crew and vehicle. For planned moves, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks ahead, especially for month-end or weekend dates. However, we understand that emergencies happen, and we’ll always do our best to help, even at very short notice.
