Who Our Furniture Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
Moving a house in Hounslow or out of the area? We handle full and part-house moves, including awkward staircases, tight hallways and delicate furniture. We protect your property, your floors and your belongings throughout.
Renters
From studio flats to multi-bedroom rentals, our service is ideal for tenants who need a reliable move on a set date. We work to building time slots, lift bookings and landlord requirements, and we can remove unwanted furniture for disposal by prior agreement.
Landlords
We assist landlords needing to clear, replace or rearrange furniture between tenancies. Whether it is a full furnished flat or just a few large items, we offer flexible scheduling and can work to tight turnaround times.
Businesses
Our commercial furniture removals cover offices, shops and small warehouses. We move desks, filing cabinets, meeting room furniture and reception areas, with careful planning to minimise downtime and disruption to staff or customers.
Students
Students moving to or from Hounslow accommodation can benefit from a cost-effective, smaller move service. We safely transport beds, desks, wardrobes and personal furniture between halls, shared houses and storage.
What Our Furniture Removals Service Includes
We move most typical household and office furniture, including:
- Sofas, armchairs and recliners
- Wardrobes, chests of drawers and bedside tables
- Beds, mattresses and bunk beds
- Dining tables, chairs and sideboards
- Desks, office chairs and filing cabinets
- Bookshelves, TV units and display cabinets
- Garden furniture and outdoor seating (weather permitting)
Items Typically Excluded or Requiring Prior Agreement
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, we normally cannot move:
- Hazardous materials (paints, solvents, gas bottles, fuel)
- Live animals or pets
- Illegal or stolen goods
- Large commercial machinery
- Items securely fixed to the property (unless previously agreed)
We can often move pianos, American-style fridge freezers and very heavy or high-value items, but these must be declared in advance so we can provide the correct equipment and insurance cover.
Our Step-by-Step Furniture Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact Hounslow Movers by phone or email with details of your move. We will ask about property type, access, floors, parking and the main items of furniture. Based on this information, we provide a clear, no-obligation quotation outlining what is included.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For larger or more complex moves, we arrange a survey. This can be done as a video call walk-through or an onsite visit in Hounslow. The survey allows us to assess access, volumes, special items and any dismantling needed, ensuring the right team size, vehicle and equipment on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can choose between:
- Full packing service – our team packs smaller items, protects furniture and labels everything.
- Part packing – we pack fragile items and protect furniture, you pack the rest.
- Self-pack – you pack all loose items; we focus on the furniture and transport.
We use appropriate materials such as padded covers, blankets, mattress bags and export wrap to protect your furniture.
4. Loading & Transport
On move day, our trained team arrives on time, protects floors and bannisters where required, and systematically loads your furniture. Items are secured in the vehicle using straps, blankets and specialised equipment. We then transport everything directly to your new property, using the most efficient route from Hounslow.
5. Unloading & Placement
On arrival, we unload your furniture and place each item in the rooms you specify. Where agreed, we assemble beds and other furniture we dismantled. We do a final walk-through with you to ensure everything is in the correct position before we leave.
Transparent Furniture Removals Pricing
Our pricing is straightforward and explained clearly before you book. Costs are based on:
- Volume and type of furniture
- Distance between properties
- Access (stairs, lifts, parking distance)
- Required team size and vehicle
- Optional services such as packing, dismantling and storage
You receive a written quotation detailing what is included, any potential additional charges (for example, waiting time caused by delayed key release) and confirmation of our fully insured status. There are no surprise extras on the day as long as the agreed scope remains the same.
Why Choose Professional Furniture Removals Over DIY
Hiring a professional removals company offers several advantages over doing it yourself or using a casual man-and-van:
- Trained staff who know how to move heavy and fragile furniture safely
- Correct equipment – dollies, straps, covers and ramps – to protect items and buildings
- Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover for peace of mind
- Efficient loading and unloading, saving you time and reducing stress
- Properly maintained vehicles suited to removals work
DIY moves often lead to damage, injuries and multiple time-consuming trips. With Hounslow Movers, you get a coordinated, professional service from start to finish.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Hounslow Movers operates to recognised industry standards. We are:
- Fully insured with comprehensive goods in transit cover for your belongings
- Protected by public liability insurance for work in and around your property
- Staffed by trained moving teams experienced in safe lifting and handling
Our paperwork clearly states the level of cover, any limits and how to raise concerns. We treat your furniture as if it were our own and aim to avoid the need for any claims through careful planning and handling.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We take pride in looking after both your furniture and the environment:
- Use of padded covers, blankets and wraps to prevent knocks and scuffs
- Protective floor coverings where required
- Re-usable packing materials wherever possible
- Responsible disposal and recycling of unwanted furniture by prior arrangement
- Route planning to reduce unnecessary mileage and fuel use
Our aim is to deliver a safe, efficient move while keeping waste to a minimum.
Real-World Furniture Removals Use Cases
Moving House in Hounslow

Office Furniture Relocation
Businesses rely on us to move desks, filing systems and meeting room furniture between offices or into temporary premises. We can work outside core hours to reduce disruption and ensure critical furniture is set up first at the new location.

Occasionally, moves arise at short notice due to changes in tenancy, completion dates or personal circumstances. Where our schedule allows, we offer rapid-response furniture removals in Hounslow, focusing on the essential items you need moved first.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does furniture removal in Hounslow cost?
The cost depends on the amount and type of furniture, access at each property, distance travelled and any additional services such as packing or dismantling. Smaller flat moves may be charged on a set hourly rate, while larger house or office moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. After discussing your move and, where needed, conducting a survey, we provide a written quotation so you know exactly what you will pay before you commit.
Can you provide same-day or urgent furniture removals?
Where our schedule permits, we do offer same-day or short-notice furniture removals in Hounslow. Availability depends on existing bookings, team size required and the scale of your move. If you need an urgent move, contact us as early as possible with details of your items and locations. We will confirm realistically what we can do, prioritising essential furniture and ensuring that even a last-minute move is carried out safely and professionally.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. Your furniture is covered by our goods in transit insurance while it is in our care and on our vehicles. We also hold public liability insurance for work in and around your property. Our quotation and booking documents clearly set out the level of cover, any exclusions and how to report damage should anything go wrong. We minimise risks through proper wrapping, careful handling and secure loading, and claims are rare, but the cover is there for your reassurance.
What is included in your furniture removals service?
Our standard service includes a trained team, suitable vehicle, protective blankets and covers, careful loading, transport from your old property to your new one, and unloading with placement of furniture in your chosen rooms. Optional extras include packing of smaller items, supply of boxes and packing materials, dismantling and reassembly of certain furniture, and short- or long-term storage. Everything included will be clearly listed in your written quotation so you know what to expect on the day.
How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?
A professional removals company like Hounslow Movers provides trained staff, appropriate insurance, specialist equipment and purpose-built vehicles. We carry out surveys where needed, plan access, protect your furniture and property, and offer clear terms and documentation. Many casual man-and-van operators work without proper insurance or training, which can increase the risk of damage or delay. While man-and-van may suit very small, low-value moves, most households and businesses benefit from the reassurance of a structured, professional service.
How far in advance should I book my furniture removal?
Ideally, you should book as soon as you have a confirmed moving date, particularly if you are moving at the end of the month, on a Friday or during school holidays when demand is higher. For most moves, one to three weeks’ notice gives us time to schedule a survey, confirm access arrangements and prepare properly. However, we understand that dates can change, and we always try to accommodate shorter notice where possible, especially for smaller furniture moves within Hounslow.
