Who Our Same Day Removals Service Is For

Homeowners

If your completion date has moved forward unexpectedly or your previous mover has let you down, we can often step in on the same day. We handle everything from small flats to family homes, focusing on keeping your furniture and valuables protected.

Renters

Facing a sudden notice, landlord deadline or end of tenancy? We can clear your flat or house quickly and carefully, helping you avoid penalties for overstay or leaving items behind.

Landlords and Letting Agents

We assist landlords and agents who need a property cleared at short notice, whether after a tenancy ends or in urgent situations. We can remove tenants’ belongings as instructed, or clear furnished/part-furnished properties ready for the next let.

Businesses

From small offices to retail units, we handle fast turnarounds for business relocations, stock moves, and urgent equipment transfers. We understand the cost of downtime and work efficiently so you can keep trading.

Students

Students at local colleges and universities often need quick removals when accommodation changes unexpectedly. We offer cost-effective, smaller same day moves ideal for student rooms and shared houses.

• Household furniture – beds, sofas, tables, wardrobes, cabinets
• White goods – fridges, freezers, washing machines, dryers
• Electronics – TVs, computers, monitors, audio equipment
• Personal belongings – boxes, suitcases, bags, books, clothes
• Office furniture – desks, chairs, filing cabinets, storage units

If you are unsure whether something can be moved, just ask when you call. We will always give clear guidance in advance.

Our Step-by-Step Same Day Removals Process

1. Enquiry & Quick Quote

When you call or message us, we take key details: addresses, access, property size, key items, floors and timing. For same day removals we prioritise your booking and provide a clear, no-obligation estimate as quickly as possible.

2. Fast Survey – Virtual or Onsite

For many urgent moves we complete a quick virtual survey using photos or video. For larger or more complex jobs in Chessington and nearby, we may send someone out if time permits. This helps us allocate the right van size, number of movers and equipment so there are no surprises on the day.

3. Packing & Preparation

Ideally, you pack smaller items into boxes or bags before we arrive. Where time allows, we can assist with packing key items and wrapping delicate pieces. We bring removal blankets, mattress and sofa covers, and use straps to secure furniture in the van.

4. Loading & Transport

Our trained team load your belongings in a safe, efficient order, taking care around tight staircases, doors and communal areas. Everything is secured in the vehicle to minimise movement in transit. We then take the most suitable route based on live traffic conditions.

5. Unloading & Placement

At the destination, we unload and place items into the rooms you specify. We can reassemble basic furniture where agreed and position heavier items so you can start settling in straight away, even though the move was arranged at very short notice.

Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals

We price same day removals fairly based on:

• Volume of items (or property size)
• Number of movers required
• Distance between addresses
• Access issues (stairs, long carries, parking restrictions)
• Any additional services such as packing or furniture assembly

Urgent and same day bookings may carry a surcharge compared with moves booked in advance, simply because we have to reorganise schedules and allocate staff at short notice. You will always receive a clear breakdown of what is included before you agree to proceed, with no hidden fees added on the day.

Why Choose Professional Same Day Removals Over DIY

Trying to organise a last-minute move yourself can quickly become stressful and more costly than expected. Hiring a professional same day removals team offers several advantages:

• Trained movers who know how to lift and handle heavy, awkward items properly
• Correct equipment to protect your belongings and the property
• Reliable transport that is correctly maintained and insured
• Efficient loading to reduce the number of trips
• Less risk of personal injury or damage to furniture and walls

With Man with Van Chessington you get the speed of a typical man-and-van with the organisation and standards of a dedicated removals company.

Insurance and Professional Standards

We understand that trusting a company with your belongings, especially at short notice, requires confidence. Man with Van Chessington is fully insured and operates to professional standards you can rely on:

• Goods in transit insurance to protect your items while they are being moved
• Public liability cover for peace of mind in and around your property
• Trained and experienced teams who handle items carefully
• Clear terms and conditions, explained before the move

We treat your possessions as if they were our own and aim to minimise the stress that often comes with urgent moves.

Care, Protection and Sustainability

Even on the tightest timescales, we do not cut corners on care. We use padded blankets, covers and proper securing methods for furniture and appliances. Floors and doorways are protected where needed, particularly in communal areas or properties with delicate finishes.

We also aim to work in a responsible, sustainable way by:

• Reusing durable packing materials where appropriate
• Planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage
• Advising customers on recycling or donating unwanted items

Real-World Same Day Removals Use Cases

Moving House at Short Notice

Sometimes completion dates change, or another removals firm cancels on the day. We frequently help homeowners and tenants in Chessington complete their move on time, even when they contact us that very morning.

Emergency Office and Business Moves

Whether you need to vacate premises quickly, move equipment to a new office, or reposition stock, our same day service helps businesses respond to unexpected events with minimal disruption.

Urgent Student Moves

Course changes, accommodation issues or last-minute decisions can leave students needing to move out fast. We provide cost-effective, smaller van services ideal for single rooms or shared flats, often on the same day you get in touch.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do same day removals in Chessington cost?

The cost of same day removals depends on the size of the job, distance travelled, access, and how many movers are required. Because we must reorganise our schedule at short notice, urgent jobs may attract a small premium compared with pre-booked moves. We usually price either as a fixed quote for the whole move or an hourly rate with a minimum booking period. Once we understand what needs moving, we provide a clear, itemised estimate so you know exactly what you will pay before committing.

Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?

We do our best to accommodate genuine same day requests, especially within Chessington and nearby areas. Availability depends on how busy we are, the scale of your move, and how far our vehicles need to travel. Smaller flat or room moves are often easier to fit in at short notice than large house or office relocations. The earlier in the day you contact us, the better the chance we can help. Even if we cannot attend immediately, we may be able to offer a next-morning solution.

Are my belongings insured during a same day move?

Yes. Our same day removals are covered by the same goods in transit insurance and public liability cover as our pre-planned moves. This means your items are protected while being loaded, transported and unloaded, subject to our standard terms and reasonable packing. We’ll explain any limitations, such as cover for fragile or unboxed items, when you book. If you have particularly high-value belongings, please let us know in advance so we can confirm the level of cover and advise on any extra precautions.

What is included in your same day removals service?

Our standard same day removals service includes the van, fuel, a professional driver, the agreed number of movers, loading, safe transport and unloading into your new property. We also provide blankets and securing straps as standard. Where time allows and if agreed, we can help with basic dismantling and reassembly, as well as limited packing support. Packing materials and full packing services are usually extra, as are long carries, waiting time and additional pick-up or drop-off points. All inclusions and options are clearly set out in your quote.

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

A professional removals service like Man with Van Chessington offers more than just a vehicle and a driver. You get trained staff, appropriate equipment, fully insured transport and a structured process from quote to completion. We plan how your items are loaded, protect furniture properly, and understand access, parking and building requirements. Casual man-and-van operators may not have the right cover or experience for larger or more complex moves, which can lead to damage, delays or disputes. With us, you know exactly what standard of service to expect.

How far in advance should I book if I know I might need a same day move?

If you suspect you may need a same day or very short notice move, contact us as early as possible to discuss your situation. Even if the date is not confirmed, we can advise on likely availability and what information we’ll need. For guaranteed slots, booking at least a few days ahead is best, but we understand this isn’t always possible. When things change suddenly, call us straight away; the sooner we know, the better we can rearrange resources and give you a realistic plan.
