At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide reliable, careful and professional furniture removals across Kilburn and the surrounding North West London area. Whether you are moving a single sofa or a full house of furniture, our trained local team handle every item as if it were our own.
Our furniture removals service is designed for anyone who needs bulky or valuable items moved safely and efficiently. We use the right equipment, protective materials and vehicles to ensure your furniture travels securely and arrives in the same condition it left.
Typical furniture removals we carry out in Kilburn include:
Being based in Kilburn means we understand the area’s streets, parking restrictions, narrow staircases and typical building layouts. This local knowledge helps us plan efficient access, avoid delays and protect both your furniture and the property.
We regularly work in Kilburn, West Hampstead, Maida Vale, Queen’s Park and across North West London, and we also undertake UK-wide moves from Kilburn to any destination.
Whether you are moving out of a family home or rearranging rooms during renovations, we handle everything from wardrobes and beds to fragile antiques. We can dismantle and reassemble many common flat-pack and modular items where required.
If you are renting in Kilburn and moving between flats or house shares, we offer cost-effective furniture removals tailored to smaller loads. We take particular care to avoid scuffs and damage, helping you protect your deposit.
We support landlords and agents with quick, reliable furniture moves, whether you are furnishing a property, removing unwanted items after a tenancy, or swapping furniture between properties.
For offices, shops and studios, we provide structured moves for desks, filing cabinets, stock shelving, reception furniture and more. Our team can work outside normal hours to minimise disruption.
Students moving to or from Kilburn halls and shared houses benefit from straightforward, budget-friendly moves. We can handle a mix of furniture, boxes, bikes and personal belongings in one trip.
Our furniture removals service covers most household and office items, including:
For safety, legal or insurance reasons, there are some items we normally cannot move as part of a standard furniture removal:
If you are unsure about a particular item, just ask during the quotation and we will clarify what is possible and how best to handle it.
You contact us with details of your move – addresses, access information, floors, parking and a list or photos of the furniture. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote, outlining what is included and any optional extras.
For larger or more complex jobs, we carry out a brief video or onsite survey. This allows us to assess access, staircases, lifts, parking, and any items that need dismantling. It ensures we send the right size vehicle, the right number of movers and correct protective materials.
On moving day, or beforehand if arranged, our team protect your furniture with covers, blankets and shrink-wrap where required. We can also offer packing services for smaller items and contents of cupboards or drawers, or we can simply move pre-packed furniture and boxes that you have prepared yourself.
We carefully carry items out of the property, protecting floors, doorways and bannisters. Everything is loaded securely into our vehicles using straps and padding to prevent movement in transit. Our fully insured vehicles are well maintained and suitable for both local Kilburn moves and longer-distance journeys.
At your new property, we unload and place each piece of furniture exactly where you want it. If we have dismantled items such as bed frames or tables, we can reassemble them as agreed. We make final checks to ensure you are happy with the layout before we leave.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden extras. Our furniture removals in Kilburn are usually priced based on:
Your quote will detail the hourly or fixed rate, any minimum charges and what is included (for example, protective materials and insurance). If circumstances change, we will discuss any impact on cost with you beforehand.
Hiring a professional removals team saves you time, effort and risk. Moving heavy or awkward furniture without the right training or equipment can lead to injuries, property damage and costly mistakes. Our trained movers know how to navigate tight staircases, protect delicate pieces and load vehicles correctly.
Compared with casual man-and-van services, we offer structured planning, fully insured transport, reliable timings and clear accountability. You know who is handling your belongings and how they are being protected at every stage.
As a responsible removals company, we operate with comprehensive cover and high standards:
We are happy to provide details of our insurance on request, and we encourage customers to keep their own home or business cover active for full peace of mind.
We treat your furniture and property with care at every step. We use quality blankets, covers, floor protection and straps, and we avoid unnecessary dismantling where items can be safely moved intact.
We also aim to work sustainably by:
Our goal is to move your items efficiently while minimising waste and environmental impact.
For full household moves, we can manage everything from initial survey to final placement of your furniture. We coordinate closely with your schedule, keys and any building management requirements.
We handle desks, chairs, storage units and meeting room furniture, labelling and placing items carefully at the new site so your team can get back to work quickly.
If you are let down by another company or need a last-minute move, we do our best to offer same-day or next-day furniture removals in Kilburn where capacity allows. We will always be honest about what we can achieve safely.
The cost depends mainly on how much furniture you have, the distance between properties and the access at each address. Smaller local moves may be charged on an hourly basis, while larger or longer-distance moves are often priced as a fixed quote. We include labour, vehicle, basic protective materials and insurance within the price. To give an accurate figure, we usually ask for a brief inventory, photos or a quick survey. There are no hidden extras – any potential additional costs are explained upfront.
Where our schedule allows, we can often help with same-day or next-day moves in and around Kilburn. Availability depends on existing bookings, vehicle size and team capacity. If you need an urgent move, call us as early as possible with details of what needs moving and both addresses. We will confirm realistically what we can do and provide a clear price. Even for last-minute work, we still follow our normal safety, protection and insurance standards.
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your items while they are being transported in our vehicles, along with public liability cover for work at your property. This is designed to give you confidence that, in the unlikely event something goes wrong, you are protected. We can share policy details, limits and exclusions on request. We also recommend that you keep your own home or business insurance active, as some policies offer additional protection during moves.
Our standard service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional moving team, loading, secure transport, unloading and placement of furniture in your new property. We supply blankets and protective materials for your furniture, and basic floor protection where needed. Optional extras include packing of smaller items, dismantling and reassembly of certain furniture, and additional trips. Everything included will be clearly listed in your quotation so you know exactly what to expect on the day.
A casual man-and-van is often just transport, with limited protection, planning or insurance. Our service is a structured removals operation, with trained staff, proper equipment, fully insured vehicles and a clear process from survey to completion. We assess access, plan loading, protect your property and furniture, and provide documentation of what has been agreed. This reduces risk of damage, delays and disputes, and is especially important if you are moving a full household or valuable furniture.
For best availability and choice of dates, we recommend booking 1–2 weeks in advance for smaller local moves and 2–4 weeks for larger or longer-distance relocations. That said, we know plans can change, and we regularly help clients on shorter notice where our schedule allows. Once you know your likely move date, it is worth contacting us, even if the date is not fully confirmed, so we can pencil you in and advise on the next steps.
Moving a piano is never just another job. It is heavy, delicate, and often irreplaceable. At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide a dedicated piano removals service in Kilburn and the surrounding areas, using the correct equipment, proven techniques, and experienced staff to move your instrument safely and efficiently.
We handle all common piano types, from compact uprights to large grands, treating each move with the same level of care and planning. Our team is fully trained in safe lifting, careful manoeuvring, and secure transport of pianos in tight London properties.
Our local Kilburn knowledge means we understand parking restrictions, access challenges, and building layouts typical to the area. This allows us to plan your move properly, minimise disruption, and complete the work efficiently and safely.
Our piano moving service in Kilburn is suitable for:
Whether you are moving your piano across Kilburn, elsewhere in London, or to another part of the UK, we can plan and complete the job with minimal hassle.
As part of our specialist piano removals service, we can move:
For safety and insurance reasons, we generally do not move:
If you are unsure whether your instrument or situation is suitable, we will confirm during the survey stage and advise on the safest approach.
You contact Man and Van Kilburn with details of your piano and the move. We will ask about the piano type, approximate size, property access (stairs, lifts, parking), and the collection and delivery addresses. Using this information, we provide an initial estimated price and suggest the best date and time, taking into account local Kilburn traffic and parking conditions.
For most piano moves, we carry out a short virtual survey using photos or video. For more complex jobs (e.g. grand pianos, narrow staircases, basement flats), we may recommend an onsite survey. This allows us to check access carefully, confirm the number of movers required, and identify any challenges such as tight turns, low ceilings, or restricted parking.
On the day, our trained team arrives with appropriate protection materials, including piano covers, heavy-duty blankets, straps, and floor protection. We carefully prepare the piano for moving. For uprights, we protect the casing, keyboard, and pedals. For grands and baby grands, we may remove the legs and lyre, wrap and pad each part, and secure everything using industry-standard methods.
Your piano is moved using specialist equipment such as piano skids, dollies, and ramps. Our team uses proper lifting techniques and coordinated movements to navigate doorways, steps, and corridors safely. The piano is then loaded into our purpose-suitable vehicle, secured with straps, and protected by padded covers to prevent movement or vibration damage during transit.
At the destination, we unload the piano carefully and move it to your chosen room and position, subject to access. We will reassemble any parts removed for transport, remove our protection materials, and ensure the piano is placed level and safely. We can also advise on allowing the piano to acclimatise before tuning.
Every piano move is slightly different, so we price each job individually. Our quotes are clear and itemised so you understand exactly what you are paying for.
Our pricing typically considers:
We will always agree the cost with you in advance, with no hidden extras. If circumstances change (for example, new access information), we will explain any price adjustments before proceeding.
Attempting to move a piano yourself, or using a casual man-and-van without specialist experience, can be risky. Pianos are extremely heavy, awkwardly balanced, and easily damaged. A DIY attempt can result in injury, property damage, or harm to the instrument.
With Man and Van Kilburn you benefit from:
In practice, using a professional service is usually more cost-effective once you factor in the risks and potential damage costs of a DIY move.
As a professional removals company, Man and Van Kilburn operates to recognised standards and carries appropriate insurance, including:
We treat every piano as if it were our own, documenting any pre-existing marks where appropriate and moving carefully to protect your instrument and your property.
Looking after your piano is our primary concern. We use padded covers, blankets, and wraps to protect the finish, and floor protectors where needed inside your home. Our vehicles are well-maintained, clean, and suitable for moving pianos securely.
We are also mindful of our environmental impact. Where possible, we:
This approach ensures both your instrument and the wider environment are treated with respect.
If you are relocating and need your piano moved with the rest of your household items, we can integrate the piano move into a full house removal or handle it as a standalone service. We coordinate timings to ensure the piano is loaded and unloaded safely without disrupting the rest of the move.
We regularly help schools, rehearsal spaces, churches, pubs, and performance venues in Kilburn move pianos between rooms or to new premises. We can work around teaching timetables, rehearsals, or trading hours to minimise disruption.
Sometimes pianos need to be moved quickly – for example, when a tenancy ends unexpectedly or a property sale completes earlier than planned. Subject to availability, we can often arrange same-day or next-day moves within Kilburn and nearby areas, while still maintaining safe working practices.
The cost of a piano removal in Kilburn depends on several factors: the type and size of the piano, access at both properties, the number of floors or staircases, and the distance travelled. Upright piano moves within Kilburn are generally at the lower end of the price range, while larger grands or difficult access routes cost more due to additional labour and time. We provide a clear, tailored quote after asking a few key questions or completing a quick survey, so you know the exact price before booking.
Yes, we can often accommodate same-day or urgent piano removals in Kilburn, especially for local moves and upright pianos. Availability depends on our schedule and the complexity of the job, so it is always best to call as early as possible. We will assess the access details quickly, confirm whether a same-day slot is realistic, and provide a firm price. Even on urgent moves, we use the correct equipment and do not cut corners on safety or protection for your instrument.
Your piano is covered by our goods in transit insurance while it is being moved and transported, provided we are responsible for the handling and loading. We also carry public liability cover for accidental damage to property or third parties. During the booking and survey process, we will explain the key points of our cover. If you have a particularly high-value or antique instrument, we may recommend you notify your own insurer as well, so they are aware of the move and can confirm any additional requirements.
Our piano removal service includes a pre-move assessment, the supply of necessary protective materials, specialist handling and lifting, transport in a suitable vehicle, and careful placement of the piano in your chosen room at the new address. Where required, it may also include removal and reassembly of legs or other detachable components on grand pianos. We protect floors and walls as far as reasonably possible. Tuning is not included, as this is best carried out by a piano technician after the instrument has settled.
A professional piano removal service uses trained staff, specialist equipment, and appropriate insurance tailored to moving heavy, delicate instruments. Standard man-and-van operators may not have the experience, tools, or cover needed to move pianos safely. We plan each job carefully, carry out surveys where necessary, and use piano skids, dollies, ramps, and proper protection. This reduces the risk of damage to the piano and your property, and greatly lowers the chance of injury to anyone involved in the move.
For the best choice of dates and times, we recommend booking your piano removal at least one to two weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as month-end or school holidays. This allows us to arrange surveys if needed and plan around access or parking restrictions in Kilburn. However, we understand that short-notice moves do occur. If you need a piano moved urgently, contact us as soon as possible and we will do our best to offer a suitable slot, subject to safety and staffing.
At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide straightforward, affordable student removals across Kilburn and the surrounding areas. Whether you are moving into halls, changing house shares, relocating between university terms or heading home for the summer, we make sure your move is organised, safe and stress-free.
As a local, professional removals company, we understand tight budgets, awkward student timetables and shared accommodation rules. We turn up when we say we will, protect your belongings properly and get everything to your new place in good time.
Our team works in and around Kilburn every day. We know the one-way systems, controlled parking zones, loading bays and the best times to avoid heavy traffic. This local knowledge means smoother access to halls, terraced houses and mansion blocks, and fewer delays on moving day.
We regularly help students moving to and from Kilburn’s many shared houses and flats, as well as those relocating to other parts of London or returning to family homes elsewhere in the UK. If your building has strict access rules or limited lift use, we plan around it in advance.
Although this page focuses on student moves, our service is designed to support a wide range of customers in Kilburn:
We adapt the size of the van and the number of movers to match your needs, from a compact student room move to a larger flat or small house relocation.
Student moves are often a mix of personal and study-related items. Common items we handle include:
We use quality blankets, straps and covers to keep your belongings secure and protected throughout the journey.
To keep everyone safe and comply with insurance and legal requirements, we cannot transport certain items, including:
If you are unsure whether we can move something, just ask when you enquire and we will advise.
You contact us by phone, email or online form with your collection and delivery addresses, key dates and a rough list of what needs moving. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the volume of items, access at each property and travel distance.
For most student removals, a quick virtual survey (photos or video call) is enough to confirm the volume and access details. For larger flats or shared houses, we may arrange an onsite visit in Kilburn. This helps us select the right-sized vehicle and plan parking or permits if needed.
You can pack your belongings yourself, or we can provide a packing service for an additional fee. We can supply boxes, tape and packing materials in advance. On moving day, our trained team will protect furniture with blankets and covers, and clearly label items by room to make unloading easier.
Our movers carefully load your belongings, stacking items securely to prevent movement in transit. We protect doorways, bannisters and lifts where needed to avoid damage to the property. Once everything is loaded, we travel directly to your new address, keeping you updated along the way if there are any delays.
At your destination, we unload everything into the rooms you choose. We can place furniture where you want it and stack boxes sensibly so you can unpack in your own time. Before we leave, we check that you are happy with the placement and that nothing is missing or damaged.
We understand that students and young renters need clarity on costs. Our pricing is straightforward, with no hidden extras. Quotes typically consider:
We agree everything in writing before the move. If your inventory changes significantly, let us know in advance so we can update the quote and plan accordingly.
Hiring a professional removals team often works out better value than attempting a DIY move with friends or a casual man-with-a-van. With us you benefit from:
DIY moves can quickly become stressful, especially with narrow staircases, heavy furniture and tight time slots. We handle the hard work so you can focus on your studies and settling in.
Man and Van Kilburn operates to recognised industry standards for safety and professionalism.
We are committed to handling every move with care and attention, regardless of size or budget.
We look after your belongings as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped and protected, electronics are kept upright and secure, and fragile boxes are clearly identified and handled with extra caution.
We also try to minimise our environmental impact by:
Where suitable, we can also help direct unwanted items to local charities or recycling points in and around Kilburn.
We regularly help first-year students move into university accommodation and then relocate to private rentals in later years. We are used to time-limited access windows, busy car parks and strict unloading rules, and we plan accordingly.
If you are heading home for the summer, we can collect from your Kilburn flat, take items to a local storage facility, or transport them to your family address elsewhere in the UK. We can also combine collection from multiple housemates to keep costs manageable.
Last-minute tenancy changes happen: landlords selling up, contracts ending unexpectedly or issues with housemates. We offer same-day or next-day moves where possible, subject to availability, to help you relocate quickly and safely.
Costs depend mainly on how much you are moving, the distance between addresses and access at each property. A small room move within Kilburn is often priced as a minimum time-based booking, while larger flat moves may be quoted as a fixed price. Additional services, such as packing or providing boxes, can affect the final cost. Once we understand what needs moving and your locations, we provide a clear, itemised quote so you know exactly what you are paying for before you commit.
Yes, we can often accommodate same-day or short-notice moves in Kilburn, especially outside peak weekends and month-end dates. If you need to move urgently due to a tenancy issue or a change of plans, call us as soon as possible with your details. We will check vehicle and crew availability and give you an honest answer. While we cannot guarantee last-minute slots every time, we do our best to fit in urgent moves or offer realistic alternatives, such as a next-day or evening collection.
Yes. We carry goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are being moved, along with public liability cover for peace of mind at both addresses. This means that if something goes wrong within the terms of our policy, you have financial protection. We will explain any limits, excesses or exclusions when you book, and we recommend that you highlight particularly high-value items in advance so we can advise on additional cover if needed.
Our standard service includes a suitable vehicle, one or more professional movers, loading, transport and unloading to your new address. We provide blankets and straps to protect and secure your items and will place furniture and boxes in the rooms you choose. Optional extras include packing services, supply of boxes and materials, and dismantling or reassembly of basic furniture where agreed. Parking fees and congestion or clean air zone charges are discussed upfront so there are no surprises on the day.
While a casual man-and-van may be cheaper at first glance, our service offers clear advantages: trained staff, fully insured transport, proper equipment and a structured process. We conduct surveys where needed, confirm details in writing and turn up on time with the right-sized vehicle. Your belongings are packed and secured professionally, reducing the risk of damage. If an issue does occur, you have recourse through our insurance and company procedures, which is often not the case with informal operators.
For the best choice of dates and times, especially around the start and end of university terms, we recommend booking at least two weeks in advance. Peak periods, such as late September and June, fill up quickly. However, we understand that student housing arrangements can change at short notice, so we always try to accommodate last-minute requests where possible. Even if your dates are not fixed, it is worth getting in touch early so we can pencil you in and adjust the booking as your plans firm up.
Moving in or out of a flat in Kilburn brings its own challenges – stairs, lifts, tight hallways, parking restrictions and neighbours to consider. At Man and Van Kilburn, our dedicated flat removals service is designed specifically around these realities, providing a smooth, efficient move with minimum disruption.
As an experienced local removals company, we combine practical know-how, careful handling and clear communication to give you a straightforward, stress-reduced moving day.
Flats and apartments are different to houses. Access can be tighter, buildings are often busier, and building rules must be respected. Our team is used to working in period mansion blocks, modern developments and council flats across Kilburn and the surrounding areas.
We plan your move around your building’s layout, lift access, loading areas and time restrictions, helping to avoid delays and complaints from neighbours or building management. Whether you are on the ground floor or the top floor, we bring the right equipment and enough people to complete your move safely and efficiently.
If you are selling or buying a flat in Kilburn, we can coordinate with estate agents and building managers, work around completion times, and protect both properties during the move.
We regularly help tenants move in and out of rental flats. We understand the importance of avoiding damage so you can protect your deposit. We use floor protection, door covers and careful lifting techniques throughout.
We support landlords with flat clearances, part-moves, and furniture changes between tenancies. We can remove old items, deliver new furniture and work to tight handover deadlines.
Small businesses and freelancers often work from flats or studio apartments. We handle office-style moves in residential buildings, moving desks, computers, stock and equipment while keeping disruption to neighbours to a minimum.
Students moving into or out of university accommodation or shared flats benefit from our small flat removals option – ideal for a room or studio’s worth of belongings at a reasonable price.
Our team regularly moves:
For safety and legal reasons, some items are excluded or require prior agreement:
If you are unsure about a particular item, just mention it during your enquiry so we can advise or plan accordingly.
You can contact Man and Van Kilburn by phone, email or online form. We will ask a few key questions about your current flat, the new address, floor levels, lift access, parking and what needs to be moved. Using this information, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote and explain what is included.
For larger flat moves or more complex buildings, we recommend a short survey. This can be done virtually via video call or, where needed, in person. The survey helps us understand access, staircases, lift dimensions and any items requiring special handling. This reduces the risk of surprises on the day and allows us to allocate the right vehicle and team size.
We offer different levels of packing service to suit your needs:
On moving day, we protect furniture with blankets, wraps and, where appropriate, mattress and sofa covers. We also protect communal areas as required, such as lift interiors and hallway walls.
Our team plans the loading sequence to make best use of space and ensure safe transport. We use ties, blankets and securing methods inside the vehicle to prevent movement. All moves are covered by our goods in transit insurance, and your flat and communal areas are protected by our public liability cover.
At your new flat, we unload and place items in the rooms you choose, rather than leaving everything in one spot. We reassemble basic furniture that we dismantled for the move, and we check with you before we leave to make sure you are happy with the placement of key items.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes are based on:
Smaller flat moves may be priced on a straightforward hourly rate, while larger or more complex moves are usually quoted as a fixed price so you know exactly what to budget. Any potential extra charges, such as extended waiting time or congestion/parking costs, are explained clearly in advance.
Moving yourself or using a casual man-and-van can seem cheaper on paper, but often leads to hidden costs in time, stress and damage. Our professional service offers:
In many cases, using a reliable removals company like Man and Van Kilburn actually works out better value than cobbling together a DIY solution.
Your belongings and your building are important. That is why we maintain strong protections and standards:
We also follow sensible health and safety practices, including risk assessments where needed, especially for higher floor moves or awkward access.
We handle your belongings as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped and protected, boxes are stacked safely, and communal areas are treated with respect. For flats in shared buildings, we aim to keep noise and disruption down and clear any packaging or debris from hallways and entrances.
We also take a practical approach to sustainability. Where possible, we reuse durable packing materials, offer collection of reusable boxes, and plan routes sensibly to reduce unnecessary mileage. If you have unwanted items in good condition, we can often suggest local reuse or donation options in and around Kilburn.
Perhaps you are upsizing from a studio to a one-bedroom, or moving closer to work. We can move you door-to-door within Kilburn in a single day, often in a single run, keeping disruption and downtime low.
For freelancers or small businesses operating from flats, we move desks, computers, stock and shelving with the same care we give to home moves, ensuring your work equipment arrives safely and is back in use quickly.
Sometimes plans change suddenly – breakups, job changes, landlord decisions. Where we have availability, we offer urgent flat removals and same-day moves. We will always be honest about what is possible within your timeframe and budget.
Costs vary depending on the size of your flat, the volume of belongings, floor levels, lift access and travel distance. A small studio move may be charged on an hourly rate, while a larger two-bedroom flat is usually quoted at a fixed price for the whole job. To give an accurate figure, we ask a few questions or carry out a quick survey. There are no hidden extras; any possible additional costs, such as parking or congestion charges, are explained clearly before you book.
Yes, we can often accommodate same-day or short-notice moves in Kilburn, especially for smaller flats and partial moves. Availability depends on our schedule and the complexity of your move, so it is best to call us directly for urgent situations. If we can help, we will outline what is realistic within the time available, and may suggest a phased approach if a full move in one go is not practical. We will never overpromise; our priority is a safe, properly managed move.
Your items are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are being transported in our vehicles, and our public liability cover protects against accidental damage to property. This is part of our standard service, not an optional extra. We will explain what is covered and any limits or exclusions when you book. For particularly high-value or unusual items, we may recommend additional specialist cover or specific packing requirements to ensure you are fully protected.
Our standard service includes the vehicle, a trained moving team, loading at your current flat, safe transport, and unloading and placement at your new flat. We also provide basic protection materials such as blankets and straps. Optional extras include full or part packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and supply of packing materials. We can also help with minor furniture positioning so your new space is functional from day one. Everything included will be clearly listed in your written quote.
A casual man-and-van may be fine for a few boxes, but for a full flat move you benefit from a professional removals team. We bring trained staff, proper insurance, suitable vehicles, and the equipment needed to handle heavy and awkward items safely. We also plan around building access, lifts and parking, and take responsibility for protecting your belongings and the property. With a casual service, you often take on more risk, do more of the heavy work yourself and have less protection if something goes wrong.
Ideally, you should book as soon as you have a confirmed moving date, especially if you are moving at the end of the month or on a weekend, when demand is higher. For most standard flat moves, one to three weeks’ notice is comfortable and gives time to arrange surveys, packing and building permissions if required. However, we do our best to help with short-notice moves too. Even if your date is not fully fixed, it is worth getting in touch early so we can pencil you in and discuss options.
When you need to move today, you need a removals team that reacts quickly, stays organised and treats your belongings with care. Man and Van Kilburn provides fast, reliable same day removals across Kilburn and the surrounding areas, carried out by experienced, professional movers who are fully insured and used to working under time pressure.
Our same day removals service is designed for urgent, short-notice or last‑minute moves. Whether your plans have changed unexpectedly or another mover has let you down, we can often step in on the day to get you moved safely and efficiently.
We handle everything from small flat moves within Kilburn to urgent house and office relocations across London or further afield. Our modern vans are fully equipped with blankets, straps, trolleys and tools so we can load quickly while still protecting your belongings.
Working daily in Kilburn means we understand local roads, parking restrictions and building layouts. That local knowledge makes a big difference when you are on a tight schedule. We plan routes to avoid bottlenecks where possible and liaise with you about loading access, lifts and parking bays so we can work efficiently from the moment we arrive.
From period conversions off the Kilburn High Road to modern apartment blocks and commercial units, we are familiar with the typical access challenges in the area and know how to work around them without wasting time.
If your completion date has moved forward, a previous removal company has cancelled, or you simply need to be in your new property today, we can provide a professional same day home removal in Kilburn with careful handling of furniture, appliances and personal belongings.
Last-minute end of tenancy? We regularly help tenants who need to vacate a property quickly, including evenings and weekends where possible. We can also assist with moving items into storage if your next place is not yet ready.
For landlords dealing with urgent clearances or needing a property emptied for new tenants, we offer fast and efficient removals, including separating reusable items from rubbish and transporting them to your chosen destination or storage facility.
From small offices to retail units, we provide same day removals for business relocations, internal moves or urgent equipment transfers. We understand downtime costs money, so we work quickly, methodically and with minimal disruption.
Students often have to move on short notice. We offer cost-effective, smaller-scale removals for student rooms and shared houses, with the option of one or two movers depending on your budget and the size of the job.
Our Kilburn same day removals team can safely transport most household and office contents, including:
For safety, legal or insurance reasons, there are items we cannot carry, including:
If you are unsure about a particular item, ask us during your enquiry and we will advise on what is possible or suggest an appropriate specialist service.
Call or message us as soon as you know you need a same day move. We will ask a few clear questions about your addresses, access, inventory and timing. For urgent moves we provide a fast, transparent quote based on the information you give us, with no hidden extras.
On same day jobs there is often no time for an onsite survey, so we usually carry out a quick virtual survey via phone video or detailed photos. This allows us to judge van size, number of movers and any access issues so we can arrive properly prepared.
Ideally, you will have items boxed and ready when we arrive. However, we can assist with packing and wrapping on the day if required. We use strong boxes, protective blankets, mattress covers and shrink wrap for delicate or soft furnishings to reduce the risk of damage in transit.
Our trained team loads the van systematically, securing items with straps and placing heavy objects safely. We work quickly but carefully, protecting walls, doors and communal areas where possible. Once loaded, we travel directly to your new address or storage facility using the most efficient route.
At your destination we unload to your instructions, placing furniture in the right rooms and positioning larger items where you want them. If we have dismantled furniture, we can reassemble it on arrival, subject to the agreed booking time.
Same day moves are priced fairly based on:
We will always explain our pricing clearly before you confirm the booking. Most urgent removals in Kilburn are charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, plus any agreed fixed costs (for example, congestion or parking charges if applicable). There are no unexpected add-ons on the day.
Hiring a professional removals team rather than doing it yourself or using an unvetted casual van service offers several advantages:
For same day moves where you are already under pressure, using experienced Kilburn movers means fewer problems and a smoother outcome.
Man and Van Kilburn operates to recognised industry standards, giving you peace of mind even on urgent jobs. We carry:
We will explain how our cover works and any limits that apply, and we encourage customers to keep particularly valuable or irreplaceable items (such as jewellery, cash and important documents) with them personally wherever possible.
Even on same day moves, we do not cut corners when it comes to care. We use padded blankets, floor protection where appropriate and secure strapping in the van to minimise movement in transit. We treat your home and belongings with respect, just as we would our own.
Where possible, we also work with a focus on sustainability by reusing quality packing materials, planning efficient routes to reduce unnecessary mileage and, where agreed, separating items for reuse or recycling instead of simple disposal.
A family in Kilburn faced an unexpected completion date change and needed to be out of their three‑bed house the same day. We provided a two‑van, three‑person team at short notice, handling packing support, dismantling beds and transporting everything to their new home across North West London before evening.
A small creative agency had to vacate their serviced office within 24 hours due to a lease issue. We moved desks, chairs, IT equipment and archive boxes into a new Kilburn workspace, working around their staff so they could keep operating during the transition.
A student leaving halls needed to move belongings into storage the same day after a change in travel plans. We supplied a smaller van and one mover, keeping costs manageable while still providing a safe, professional service.
Costs depend on the size of your move, the number of movers required, distance between addresses and how urgent the booking is. For most same day removals in Kilburn, we use a clear hourly rate with a minimum booking period, plus any necessary charges such as congestion, ULEZ or parking fees. We will give you a firm estimate before you confirm, based on the information you provide, so you know exactly how pricing works and can keep the move within your budget.
Availability for same day moves depends on our schedule and how many vehicles and teams are already booked. We recommend contacting us as early as possible in the day, as we can often reallocate resources or extend existing shifts to accommodate urgent work. During particularly busy periods, such as month-end, we may not be able to guarantee an immediate slot, but we will always be honest about what is possible and offer the earliest realistic time we can attend.
Yes. Our same day removals in Kilburn are covered by goods in transit insurance while items are in our vehicles, and by public liability cover while we are working at your property. We will explain the key terms, limits and any exclusions when you book. We also recommend you advise us about any particularly fragile or high‑value items so we can give them extra protection. For very high value possessions, it is sensible to check your own home insurance for additional cover.
Our standard service includes a suitable van, one or more trained movers, protective blankets, straps, basic tools, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. We can also provide packing materials, on‑the‑day packing assistance, furniture dismantling and reassembly if agreed in advance. What is not included are packing materials beyond what is specified, professional cleaning, rubbish removal or specialist services such as piano moving, unless clearly arranged and priced beforehand.
While both involve a van and people to help, a professional removals service offers much more structure and protection. We use trained staff, carry full insurance, plan your move properly and bring the right equipment for safe lifting and protection. Casual man‑and‑van operators may not be insured or experienced, which can increase the risk of damage or delays, especially on a same day move when time is tight. With us, you get clear communication, reliability and accountability from start to finish.
For genuine same day moves, contact us as soon as you know you need to relocate, even if you do not have every detail confirmed yet. The earlier in the day you get in touch, the more flexibility we have to assign a team and vehicle. For planned urgent moves (for example, tomorrow or later this week), booking at least 24–48 hours ahead is ideal. However, we regularly accommodate very short‑notice requests in Kilburn when our schedule allows.
At Man and Van Kilburn, our man with van service is designed for people who want a flexible, professional move without the cost of a large removals crew. You get an experienced local driver, a clean, well-maintained van, and a trained porter team when needed – all managed by a removals specialist who knows Kilburn and the surrounding areas inside out.
Whether you are moving a few items across NW6 or relocating a small flat across London, we focus on safe handling, punctual arrivals, and clear communication from start to finish.
Our service is suitable for a wide range of customers in and around Kilburn:
If you are based in Kilburn and need a professional, flexible moving option, our man with van service is usually the most efficient and cost-effective choice.
We move most everyday household and office items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, there are items we cannot carry or can only handle by prior arrangement:
If you are unsure about a particular item, ask us when you enquire – we will advise clearly on what is possible and any extra precautions needed.
Operating as Man and Van Kilburn, we know the local streets, parking restrictions and building layouts extremely well. That local knowledge makes a big difference on moving day:
By combining local knowledge with trained moving teams, we reduce delays, protect your belongings and help your move run smoothly.
You contact us by phone or online with your basic details: collection and delivery addresses, dates, list of main items, and any access issues. We ask a few focused questions and provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on time, distance and the size of van and team required.
For most man with van jobs in Kilburn, a quick virtual survey (photos or video call) is sufficient. For more complex or larger moves, we may carry out an onsite visit. The survey allows us to confirm the volume, check access (stairs, lifts, parking) and ensure we allocate the right vehicle, number of movers and time window.
You can pack your own belongings, or we can add a packing service if required. If you are packing yourself, we can supply boxes, tape and wrapping materials in advance. On moving day, our team protects furniture with blankets and covers, and we carefully prepare large items for transport, dismantling where agreed.
Our trained team loads your items methodically, securing them with straps and protective blankets to minimise movement during transit. We work efficiently but never rush at the expense of safety. Your belongings are then transported directly to the destination using well-maintained vans equipped for removals work.
On arrival, we unload and place items into the rooms you specify. We will reassemble items we dismantled for transport (such as bed frames), time allowing and as agreed in your booking. Before we leave, we invite you to check that everything is where it should be and that you are satisfied with the move.
We keep our pricing straightforward and transparent. Most Kilburn man with van jobs are priced on an hourly basis with a minimum booking period, plus any agreed travel or congestion charges. Larger or longer-distance jobs may be quoted at a fixed price.
Your quote will clearly state:
There are no hidden extras. If it looks as though time may overrun on the day, we explain and agree this with you before continuing.
Hiring a casual van or relying on friends can seem cheaper, but often ends up more stressful and risky. With Man and Van Kilburn you benefit from:
This reduces the risk of damage to your belongings, injury to yourself or helpers, and unexpected extra costs.
As a dedicated removals company, we operate to professional standards on every job in Kilburn.
We will explain the key points of cover when you book, including any individual item value limits and how to declare higher-value goods.
We treat your belongings with the same care we would use for our own. On every man with van job, we:
We also recognise our environmental responsibilities. Wherever possible we:
The aim is a move that is not only safe and efficient, but also mindful of its environmental impact.
Many customers in Kilburn use our man with van service for small to medium home moves – for example, moving from a studio to a one-bedroom flat, or between local streets. It is ideal when you have fewer large items, or when access makes a smaller van more practical than a full lorry.
For small businesses, freelancers and startups, our man with van option is perfect for relocating desks, chairs, computers and light equipment. We can move you outside normal office hours to minimise disruption, and we handle IT and office furniture with care and discretion.
Life does not always give much notice. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or short-notice man with van moves in Kilburn and across London. This can be invaluable for last-minute tenancy changes, urgent storage runs, or collecting bulky purchases that will not fit in a car.
Costs depend on the size of van, number of movers, distance and time required. Most local jobs are charged by the hour, with a minimum booking period to cover travel and loading. For example, a small local move with one man and a van may only require a couple of hours, whereas a larger flat or small house move with two porters will take longer. We provide a clear estimate before you book, so you know exactly how your price is calculated.
Yes, subject to availability. We understand that urgent situations arise – last-minute tenancy end dates, unexpected completion dates, or bulky items that suddenly need collecting. If you call early in the day, we will do our best to allocate a van and team for the same day, especially for local Kilburn moves. When same-day is not possible, we will offer the next earliest slot and explain your options clearly, including any out-of-hours availability.
Yes. Our man with van service includes goods in transit insurance, which covers your belongings while they are being carried, loaded, transported and unloaded, subject to policy limits and terms. We also hold public liability cover for additional peace of mind. We will outline the key points of cover when you book, including any single-item limits and exclusions. If you have particularly high-value items, please tell us in advance so we can advise on the best way to protect them.
Our standard service includes your van, driver and the agreed number of movers, along with loading, transport and unloading at your new address. We provide protective blankets and securing straps as standard, and we place items into the rooms you specify. Additional services such as packing, furniture dismantling/reassembly and supply of boxes can be added if needed. Parking costs, tolls and congestion charges, where applicable, will be clearly listed in your quote so you know exactly what is included.
A basic man-and-van is often just a driver and vehicle, with limited or no insurance and little formal training. Our Kilburn man with van service is run by a professional removals company. That means trained staff, fully insured vehicles, proper equipment and structured processes. We can scale the service from a simple one-man job to a full team with packing and dismantling, while keeping the flexibility that makes man with van so useful for smaller and medium-sized moves.
For the best choice of times, especially at weekends and month-end, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance. However, we know that is not always possible, so we always keep some flexibility in our schedule for short-notice moves in and around Kilburn. Even if your move is very last minute, it is worth calling – if we can help, we will, and if not, we will be honest about our availability and suggest the earliest alternative slot.
At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide a reliable, fully managed man and a van service for Kilburn and the surrounding areas. Whether you are moving a single item across town or a full flat across London, our experienced, fully insured team handles every stage carefully and efficiently.
Our man and a van service is a flexible, cost‑effective option for small to medium moves in and around Kilburn. You get a professional driver, a properly equipped van, and the right number of trained movers for your job.
Every move is planned and carried out by trained, professional movers using suitable protective materials, tools, and securing equipment.
Working in Kilburn day in, day out means we understand the local area extremely well: the one-way systems, bus lanes, parking restrictions, and tight access streets that can catch people out.
This local knowledge helps us keep your move running smoothly, minimising delays and protecting your belongings from unnecessary handling.
Ideal for smaller house moves, downsizing, or moving items into or out of storage. We can manage everything from carefully wrapping furniture to positioning it in your new home.
Perfect for flat and house moves where access, stairs, and time slots can be tight. We regularly work with tenants moving locally within Kilburn or relocating across London.
We help landlords clear, deliver, or rearrange furnishings between properties, including end‑of‑tenancy clear moves and small refurb projects.
From small offices to local shops, our professional man and a van team can move desks, stock, equipment, and files with minimal downtime.
We offer budget‑friendly student removals for moves between halls, shared houses, and home addresses, including term‑time storage moves.
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, just mention it during your enquiry and we will advise the best approach.
You contact us with details of your move: addresses, dates, property size, and key items. We ask a few questions so we understand access, parking, and any fragile or bulky items. Based on this, we provide a clear, no‑obligation quote.
For larger or more complex moves, we recommend a short survey. This can be done virtually (video call and photos) or onsite in Kilburn where practical. The survey helps us allocate the right van size, number of movers, and time required.
You can pack your own boxes, or we can provide a professional packing service. On moving day, we protect furniture with blankets and covers, and we carefully dismantle items that need it, such as bed frames or large tables, if agreed in advance.
Our trained team loads your belongings systematically, securing everything with straps and using blankets and padding to minimise movement in transit. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicle.
At the destination, we unload and place items in the rooms you choose. We reassemble any furniture we dismantled as part of the move and make sure you are happy with the layout before we leave.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Our man and a van service is usually priced by the hour, with a minimum booking period, or as a fixed price for defined moves.
You will always receive a written quote before you book. If your requirements change, we will update the quote so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Using a professional removals company offers clear advantages over borrowing a van or hiring an informal operator:
For anything more than a couple of light boxes, a professional man and a van service in Kilburn generally works out better value and far less stressful.
We take our responsibilities seriously and operate to high professional standards.
Policy details and limits are available on request, and we are happy to discuss any specific high‑value items before the move.
We treat your belongings and your property with care. Floors, banisters, and doorways are protected where needed, and we handle fragile items with extra attention. Wherever possible, we use reusable protective materials such as blankets, re‑useable crates, and durable covers rather than single‑use plastics.
We also plan routes sensibly to reduce unnecessary mileage and emissions, and we encourage re‑use or donation of unwanted items instead of disposal where this is practical.
From studio flats to smaller family homes, we regularly move customers within Kilburn and to other parts of London and the UK. We tailor the van size and crew to suit the volume and access conditions.
For small offices and local businesses, our man and a van service is ideal for moving workstations, stock, or archive files with minimal interruption to trading hours.
Sometimes plans change at the last minute. Where we have availability, we can provide same-day or next‑day man and a van support for urgent moves, short‑notice key handovers, or unexpected tenancy changes.
Costs depend mainly on the size of van, number of movers, and total time required. Smaller moves may be charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, while more complex jobs are often priced as a fixed quote. Factors such as access, stairs, and distance all play a part. Once we have your details, we will provide a clear written price with any additional charges, such as packing or parking, explained upfront so you can budget with confidence.
Yes, we can often accommodate same‑day or urgent moves in Kilburn, especially for smaller jobs, provided we have a van and crew available. The sooner you contact us, the better the chance we can fit you in around existing bookings. For last‑minute work, we will still confirm the details in writing and explain any time constraints, so you know exactly what we can achieve within the available slot.
Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles. We also hold public liability cover for work at your property. There are standard exclusions and limits, which we are happy to share in writing. For particularly high‑value or unusual items, we recommend discussing them with us in advance so we can confirm cover or suggest additional protection if needed.
Our standard service includes a vehicle suited to your move, a professional driver, and the agreed number of movers to load, transport, and unload your belongings. We provide blankets, straps, and basic tools for minor dismantling. Additional services such as full or partial packing, supply of boxes and packing materials, furniture assembly, or storage can be added as required. All inclusions and optional extras are listed clearly on your quote and booking confirmation.
House removals typically refer to larger, fully managed moves – often whole houses – and may involve multiple vehicles, a bigger crew, extensive packing, and detailed planning. A man and a van service is more flexible and usually suited to smaller moves, fewer items, or short distances. At Man and Van Kilburn, both are carried out by professional, fully insured teams; the main difference is the scale and level of additional services you choose.
For weekend or month‑end moves, we recommend booking at least two weeks in advance, as these dates fill quickly. For weekday moves or smaller jobs, we can often help with shorter notice, sometimes even same day. As soon as you know your moving date or likely time frame, contact us so we can reserve a suitable slot. Early booking also gives us time to arrange any parking suspensions or access permissions if required.
Moving home in Kilburn doesn’t have to be stressful. At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide a reliable, well-organised house removals service designed around the way people actually live and move in NW6 and the surrounding areas. Every move is handled by a trained, professional, and fully insured team that treats your belongings and your property with real care.
Based in Kilburn, we know the area’s streets, parking restrictions, busy junctions and building layouts inside out. That local knowledge helps us:
Whether you’re moving a studio off Kilburn High Road or a family home near Brondesbury, we adapt our approach to your specific property and location.
We help homeowners move between houses or into long-term rentals. Our teams can handle full home removals, including large furniture, garden items, sheds and garages. If needed, we can incorporate dismantling and reassembly of beds, wardrobes and other bulky pieces.
From one-bedroom flats to shared houses, we regularly help tenants move in and out of rental properties. We’re used to working within tight time slots agreed with agents or landlords, and we take extra care to avoid any damage that could affect your deposit.
Landlords use us to clear properties between tenancies, move furniture in and out of furnished lets, and relocate appliances. Our professional team can work to short notice where possible and keep you updated if you’re not on site.
For small offices, shops and home-based businesses in Kilburn, we offer office and commercial removals. That includes desks, filing cabinets, stock, IT equipment and light machinery, all moved with proper protection and labelling so you can get back up and running quickly.
Students moving to or from Kilburn benefit from our smaller-load options. We frequently move belongings between halls, shared houses and storage, offering a cost-conscious service while maintaining our usual professional standards.
We handle most household contents, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from our standard service:
If you’re unsure about any item, just ask when you enquire. We’ll advise on what we can move and what may need a specialist.
You contact us with the basics: current address, destination, property size, access details and preferred dates. We ask a few focused questions to understand the volume and any special requirements. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining what’s included so you know exactly what to expect.
For larger or more complex moves, we carry out a short survey. This can be virtual (video call and photos) or an onsite visit in Kilburn and nearby areas. The survey allows us to:
This planning reduces the risk of delays or surprises on moving day.
We offer both full packing and part packing services, or you can pack yourself and we simply supply materials. When we pack, we use sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, paper and protective covers. Fragile items are wrapped and boxed carefully, and furniture is protected with blankets and, where appropriate, stretch wrap. We label everything clearly to make unloading more efficient.
On moving day, our trained team arrives on time, walks through the property with you, and agrees a plan for the order of loading. We:
Your belongings are then transported directly to the new address, using routes that balance speed and safety.
At the destination, we unload into the rooms you specify. We place furniture where you want it and can reassemble previously dismantled items. Before we leave, we check that nothing has been missed in the vehicle and walk through with you so any final small adjustments can be made on the day.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our house removals in Kilburn are typically priced based on:
Before you book, you’ll receive a written quote setting out the costs and what is included. There are no hidden extras; any potential additional charges (such as unavoidable parking fees or congestion charges) are explained in advance wherever possible.
Hiring a professional removals company like Man and Van Kilburn is often more cost-effective and far less stressful than trying to do everything yourself or relying on a casual man-with-a-van. We provide:
Instead of juggling friends, hiring vans, and lifting without the right equipment, you can focus on the rest of your move while we manage the heavy work.
Your peace of mind matters. Our service is fully supported by appropriate cover and standards:
We keep our vehicles well maintained and equipped, and our crews work to consistent procedures for packing, stacking and securing loads. If you have particular concerns or high-value items, tell us in advance so we can plan the right protection.
We take care of your belongings and the environment. Our approach includes:
Within your home, we aim to minimise scuffs, marks and disruption, using protection on floors and key touchpoints where needed. Our crews are instructed to tidy as they go and leave both properties in reasonable order.
A family in Kilburn upgrading from a flat to a house needs a full house removals service with packing. We provide packing the day before, then complete the move in a single, well-coordinated day, including dismantling and reassembling beds and wardrobes.
A small local business moves from one office suite to another nearby. We supply office removals, moving desks, IT equipment and files outside of normal working hours to reduce downtime, and placing everything according to a simple floor plan.
Sometimes tenants receive short notice or sales complete faster than expected. Where our schedule allows, we accommodate same-day or next-day removals in Kilburn, focusing on essential items first and working efficiently to meet deadlines.
The cost of a house removal in Kilburn depends on several factors: the size of your property, the volume of belongings, the distance between addresses, and the level of service you choose. Smaller flat moves may be charged on an hourly basis, while full house moves are often priced as a fixed job after a survey. Access issues, such as flights of stairs or long carries, can also affect the price. We always provide a clear, itemised quote before you book so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
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 arrange at short notice, while multi-bedroom house moves usually require more planning. If you need an urgent move in or around Kilburn, contact us as soon as you can with your details. We’ll check availability, advise what is realistic, and, if we can’t cover the full service on your preferred day, suggest practical alternatives or phased options.
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they’re being moved in our vehicles, and we hold public liability cover for accidental damage to property or third parties. As with any insurance, there are terms, limits and exclusions, which we’re happy to explain before you book. You should also inform us of any particularly high-value or delicate items in advance so we can consider whether additional protection or special handling is needed for those pieces.
Our standard house removals service includes supplying the vehicle and fuel, a professional moving team, loading and unloading your belongings, basic furniture protection and transport between the agreed addresses. We can add packing services, dismantling and reassembly, and provision of packing materials if you need them. Parking costs and congestion or clean air charges may be passed on at cost where unavoidable, but we’ll explain this before you confirm the booking so there are no surprises on moving day.
A casual man-and-van typically offers transport only, with limited labour, no formal training and often no meaningful insurance. Our professional removals service provides experienced, trained movers, proper equipment, goods in transit insurance, public liability cover and a structured process from survey through to unloading. We plan your move in detail, protect your furniture and property, and allocate the right staff and vehicle sizes. The aim is a smoother, safer move with far less risk of damage, delays or unexpected problems.
For a full house move in Kilburn, we recommend booking as soon as you have a likely moving date, ideally two to four weeks in advance. This gives us time to plan surveys, packing and any access arrangements. However, we understand that dates can change, especially with property chains, so we do our best to remain flexible. For smaller moves, such as student or single-room relocations, we can often accommodate enquiries made much closer to the day, subject to availability.
At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide a straightforward, well-organised removals service for anyone who needs a reliable van and an experienced mover in NW6 and the surrounding areas. Whether you are moving a single item across Kilburn High Road or relocating a full flat across London, our focus is on careful handling, punctual arrivals and clear, honest communication.
Our man and van service is designed to bridge the gap between a basic courier and a full-scale removals crew. You get a modern, clean van and a trained, professional mover (or team) who does the lifting, loading and secure transport for you.
All work is carried out by fully insured teams with the right equipment – blankets, straps, trolleys and tools – to move your belongings efficiently and safely.
Operating as Man and Van Kilburn means we know the local streets, traffic patterns and building layouts extremely well. From mansion blocks off West End Lane to terraced houses off Willesden Lane and busy commercial premises along Kilburn High Road, we are used to tight stairwells, controlled parking zones and restricted loading bays.
We plan routes carefully to avoid unnecessary delays and always check access and parking ahead of time where possible. This local knowledge keeps your move running smoothly and minimises time on the clock.
Ideal for smaller house moves, downsizing, moving items into storage or shuttling belongings between properties during renovations. We can coordinate with your sale or completion date and work around other trades on site.
Perfect for studio and flat moves in and out of Kilburn. We are used to dealing with managing agents, key collections and timed lift bookings, and we take care not to mark walls or common areas, helping you leave your rental in good condition.
We regularly help landlords clear properties between tenancies, remove old furniture and transport replacement items. We work considerately in shared buildings, keeping noise and disruption to a minimum.
For local offices, shops, salons and cafes, our professional man and van service is suitable for moving stock, IT equipment, furniture and fixtures. We can often work outside normal hours to reduce downtime.
Students moving to or from Kilburn benefit from our affordable, flexible service. Whether it is a few boxes and bags or a full room, we load, transport and unload everything safely at your new address or storage unit.
If you have something unusual or particularly valuable, mention it during your enquiry so we can confirm if we can move it safely and within our insurance terms.
You contact us with your addresses, preferred date, list of items and any access details (stairs, lifts, parking). We provide a clear, no-obligation quote, usually based on the time required, size of van and number of movers.
For larger moves or tricky access, we may carry out a virtual video survey or an onsite visit in Kilburn. This helps us assess volume, staircases, lift sizes and any dismantling needed. It keeps surprises to a minimum on the day.
You can pack your own boxes, or we can provide a separate packing service if required. On the day, we protect furniture with blankets and covers, and we can dismantle basic items such as bed frames and tables if agreed in advance.
Our trained moving teams load the van, using straps and proper stacking to prevent movement in transit. We drive directly to your new address, planning the route around traffic and access conditions in Kilburn and across London.
On arrival, we unload into the rooms you specify and reassemble any agreed items. We place boxes and furniture where you want them, helping you get settled more quickly and saving you from heavy lifting at the other end.
We aim to keep our pricing straightforward and easy to understand. Most man and van jobs in Kilburn are charged on an hourly basis, with a minimum booking period. Larger moves may be priced as a fixed job rate once we know the volume and access.
Our quotes make clear:
There are no hidden extras. If extra time is needed because of issues outside our control (for example waiting for keys), we will explain any additional charges before continuing. This way, you always know where you stand.
Hiring a professional man and van service in Kilburn saves you more than just the effort of lifting. We bring experience in handling awkward items through tight spaces, knowledge of local parking rules and the right equipment to protect your belongings and property.
DIY moves with a rental van can easily overrun, and without proper loading, items can shift and get damaged. With us, you have goods in transit insurance, public liability cover and a team that moves day in, day out – reducing risk, stress and the chance of injuries or breakages.
Your belongings are protected while they are in our care. Our service includes:
We work to clear procedures for handling, loading and securing items, and we keep our vans clean and well maintained. If anything is unclear about our cover, we are happy to explain exact limits and conditions before you book.
We handle every item as if it were our own. Furniture is wrapped in transit blankets, mattresses are protected, and we avoid dragging or pushing items across floors. We are careful around door frames, bannisters and communal areas to prevent scuffs and damage.
From a sustainability point of view, we plan routes sensibly to reduce unnecessary mileage, maintain our vehicles efficiently and reuse durable packing materials such as blankets and reusable crates where practical. When clients ask us to dispose of unwanted items, we aim to use licensed recycling centres or encourage reuse wherever possible.
Ideal for 1–2 bedroom flats, studios and partial house moves. We can often complete local Kilburn moves in a single trip, keeping disruption to your day to a minimum.
From moving a few desks to shifting an entire small office, we can transport furniture, computers and files safely. Evening or weekend moves are possible on request to keep your business running.
Life does not always run to plan. If you need a last-minute man and van in Kilburn due to a sudden tenancy change, let us know – if we have capacity, we will do our best to help the same day or the next morning.
Costs vary depending on the size of van, number of movers and how long the job takes. Most local moves are charged by the hour with a minimum booking period, so smaller jobs can work out very cost-effective. For larger moves, we may suggest a fixed price once we know the volume of goods and access details. Your quote will set out all charges clearly, including any parking, congestion or additional services, so you can budget with confidence.
We often can, especially for smaller moves within Kilburn and nearby areas. Same-day or urgent availability depends on our schedule, so it is best to call as early as possible. If we can fit you in, we will give you a confirmed arrival window and clear pricing before you book. For very last-minute jobs, having a simple list of items and clear access at both ends helps us load quickly and keep the overall time (and cost) down.
Yes. Our service includes goods in transit insurance, which covers your belongings while they are being transported in our vehicles, along with public liability cover for work at your property. There are reasonable limits and exclusions, as with any policy, so if you have high-value or unusual items, please tell us in advance so we can confirm cover or discuss extra precautions. We also minimise risk through proper packing, careful loading and secure strapping of items in the van.
Our standard service includes a suitable van, at least one experienced mover, loading, safe transport and unloading at your new address. We supply blankets, straps and trolleys as needed to protect and move your goods. On request, we can add services such as packing, dismantling and reassembly of basic furniture, or the supply of boxes and materials. We do not generally include disconnecting appliances, packing your belongings or waste disposal unless specifically agreed beforehand.
Many casual man-and-van operators simply provide transport and lifting. We operate as a professional removals company: our teams are trained, our vehicles are properly equipped, and we carry full insurance. We carry out surveys for larger moves, plan routes and access in advance and take care to protect your belongings and property. In practice, this means fewer breakages, less stress and a more predictable, organised move compared with a basic, unregulated man-and-van service.
For weekend moves and month-end dates, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, as these slots fill quickly in Kilburn. For weekday moves or smaller jobs, a few days’ notice is often enough, but more notice always gives you better choice of times. If your dates are not fixed yet, we can provide a provisional quote and then firm up the booking once you have confirmation from your landlord, solicitor or agent.
At Man and Van Kilburn, our removal van service is designed for anyone who wants a smooth, stress-free move in and around Kilburn. Whether you are moving a single item across town or a full flat or office to the other side of London, we provide a professional, carefully managed service with the right sized van and an experienced team.
We combine the flexibility of a traditional man and van with the organisation and standards of a full removals company. Every move is planned, items are protected, and your schedule is respected.
Working daily in Kilburn means we understand local streets, parking restrictions and building layouts. From mansion blocks on Shoot-Up Hill to terraced houses off Kilburn High Road and new-build flats around South Kilburn, we know the quirks of local properties and how to handle them.
We routinely deal with controlled parking zones, tight stairs, lifts, loading bays and time-limited access, so we plan your move around real conditions on the ground. This local knowledge saves you time and helps avoid parking fines or delays.
Ideal for house moves where you want a cost-effective, flexible service without compromising on care. We can handle anything from a small bungalow to a larger family home, including garden and shed items.
Perfect for tenants moving between flats or house shares. We are used to top-floor moves, narrow hallways and tight staircases common in Kilburn conversions, and we protect both your belongings and the property.
Our removal van service supports landlords needing quick, tidy removals of furniture, end-of-tenancy clear-outs (non-waste) and the transport of appliances or furnishings between properties.
From small offices to shops and studios, we offer organised removal van support for moves, re-fits and internal relocations. We can work out of hours to reduce disruption to your operations.
Students moving to or from Kilburn benefit from a simple, budget-friendly service. We regularly help move between halls, private flats and storage facilities, with flexible dates around term times.
We move most household and office items safely in our removal vans, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, our removal vans cannot carry:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise you in advance and suggest alternatives where possible.
You contact us with details of your move: addresses, access, list of items, dates and any time restrictions. We then provide a clear, no-obligation quote based on the volume, distance and level of help required (driver only, one helper, or a full team).
For larger moves or more complex properties, we may suggest a short video survey or onsite visit. This allows us to assess access, parking, stairs and lift sizes, and to recommend the right size of removal van and number of movers, reducing the risk of delays on the day.
You can pack your own belongings, or choose our packing service. If we pack, we bring quality boxes, tape and wrapping materials and label everything clearly. Even for self-packed moves, we can supply materials and guidance so your items are safe in transit.
On moving day we arrive on time, protect floors and doorways as needed, dismantle agreed furniture and carefully load the van. Everything is secured with straps and padded where required. Your goods are then transported directly to your new address in our fully insured removal vans.
At your destination we unload systematically, placing furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify. We can reassemble agreed items and will not leave until you are satisfied that everything listed has been delivered and positioned as planned.
Our pricing is straightforward and explained clearly before you book. We typically charge either:
Prices depend on the size of van, number of movers, distance, access difficulties and whether packing is included. There are no hidden extras: any potential parking fees, congestion or additional services are discussed upfront so you know exactly what to expect.
Hiring a van yourself and asking friends to help can seem cheaper, but often ends up costing more in time, stress and damage. Our trained teams know how to move large and awkward items safely, protecting both your belongings and your property. We bring trolleys, blankets, straps and tools designed for removals, and we are fully insured if something goes wrong.
Using a casual, unregistered man-and-van can also be risky: no proper insurance, no guarantees, and limited accountability. With Man and Van Kilburn you get a professional, established service with documented standards and clear communication.
We take responsibility for your belongings seriously. Our service includes:
We work to clear procedures: documented inventories for larger moves, agreed arrival times, and confirmation of completion once everything is in place. This reduces misunderstandings and gives you confidence from start to finish.
Protecting your belongings is central to our service. We use padded blankets, mattress and sofa covers, floor protection where needed, and secure strapping in every removal van. Fragile or high-value items receive extra care and, where appropriate, custom wrapping or packing.
We are committed to a more sustainable way of working. Where possible we reuse strong packing materials, recycle cardboard, plan efficient routes to cut unnecessary mileage and maintain our vans to keep emissions lower. We also encourage customers to declutter responsibly, donating usable items to local charities instead of throwing them away.
From studio flats to family homes, we handle full household moves, including dismantling and reassembling furniture and transporting white goods. Many customers move between Kilburn and other parts of London or the Home Counties, and we manage both ends of the journey.
We help small offices, clinics, shops and creative studios move equipment, stock and furniture with minimal downtime. Weekend or evening moves are available by arrangement so your business can continue trading with little disruption.
Life does not always run to plan. When you have to move at short notice—whether due to a change of tenancy date, emergency works or a last-minute purchase—we can often provide a same-day removal van, subject to availability. We prioritise clear, quick communication so you know what is realistic.
The cost of a removal van in Kilburn depends mainly on time, distance, the size of van required and how many movers you need. Smaller local moves are often priced by the hour, while larger or longer-distance moves are usually a fixed quote. Factors such as stairs, long carries from the property to the van, and parking arrangements can also affect the price. Once we know the details of your move, we will provide a clear, itemised estimate so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Yes, we can often provide same-day or urgent removal van services in Kilburn, depending on 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 will confirm what we can realistically offer, including timing, number of movers and estimated cost. While we cannot guarantee last-minute slots every day, we keep some flexibility in our schedule specifically for urgent moves and smaller jobs.
Yes. Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our removal vans, provided they are packed and handled in line with our guidelines. We also hold public liability insurance for peace of mind in case of accidental damage to buildings or third parties. During the quotation stage we will explain the key terms, any limits or exclusions, and how to declare particularly high-value items so that cover is correctly in place for your specific move.
Our standard removal van service includes the vehicle, fuel, a professional driver, loading and unloading, protective blankets, straps and basic tools for dismantling standard furniture. You can add extra movers if needed for larger jobs, and optional services such as full or partial packing, supply of packing materials and furniture assembly. We always agree what is included in writing before the move so there are no surprises on the day, and we can tailor the level of help to suit your budget and schedule.
A casual man-and-van usually offers simple transport, often without formal training, insurance or clear procedures. Our removal van service operates to established removals standards: trained staff, fully insured vehicles, proper equipment, written quotes and structured planning. We take responsibility for protecting your belongings and property, not just moving items from A to B. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and disputes, and gives you a single accountable company to deal with from booking to completion.
For most moves we recommend booking one to three weeks in advance, particularly if you need a specific date or time slot, such as the end of the month or a weekend. During busy periods, more notice helps us allocate the right size van and team. However, we understand that moves are not always predictable, so we do keep capacity for short-notice work. Even if your dates are not fixed yet, it is worth contacting us early so we can pencil you in and advise on availability.
At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide straightforward, reliable removal services across Kilburn and the surrounding North West London areas. With years of hands-on experience, we move homes and businesses every day, taking care of everything from a single room to a full house or office relocation.
Our teams are fully insured, locally experienced and trained to handle moves safely and efficiently. Whether you are moving across Kilburn or to another part of the UK, we aim to make your move as calm and organised as possible.
Our core removal service is designed to cover every stage of your move, tailored to your needs and budget. We work with:
Every move includes a dedicated vehicle and a trained removals team who will load, transport and unload your belongings with care.
Operating daily in Kilburn, we know the area’s streets, parking restrictions and building layouts very well. This local knowledge helps us plan realistic timings, choose the right sized vehicle and minimise delays on move day.
We are experienced with:
This means less stress for you, better communication and a smoother move from start to finish.
We regularly handle full house moves, including packing, disconnecting basic appliances and carefully protecting furniture. If you have high-value or fragile items, we can provide additional protection and extra handlers where needed.
Flat and apartment moves are a large part of what we do in Kilburn. We work carefully in shared spaces, protect communal areas where practical, and help you move without disturbing neighbours more than necessary.
For landlords, we offer part and full property clearance, tenant changeover moves, and storage moves. We can relocate furniture between properties or remove items for storage or disposal (within agreed guidelines).
We support office and commercial relocations, moving desks, IT equipment, stock, shelving and archives. We can work outside normal office hours by arrangement to keep disruption to your staff and customers to a minimum.
Students often need smaller, flexible moves between terms or properties. We offer cost-effective solutions for single rooms, shared houses, and storage moves, with smaller vehicles and shorter time slots where suitable.
For safety, insurance and legal reasons, certain items are excluded or require advance agreement:
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, please mention it during your enquiry so we can advise properly.
You contact us with basic details: addresses, property type, dates, and what you need moved. We ask clear questions to understand volume, access, and any special requirements. Based on this, we provide a transparent, no-obligation quote, usually the same day.
For larger or more complex moves, we’ll carry out a virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to assess access, parking, stairs, lift size and the volume of items. Surveys help avoid surprises on move day and ensure we send the right team and vehicle.
You can choose between:
Furniture is protected using blankets and, where necessary, disassembled for safe transport. We label items clearly for easier unloading.
On move day, our trained removals team arrives on time, walks through the plan with you, and begins loading. We use professional equipment such as trolleys, straps and blankets to protect your belongings and the property. Once loaded, we transport your goods directly to your new address, unless storage or an additional stop has been arranged.
At the destination, we unload items into the rooms you specify. Where we have disassembled furniture, we can re-assemble basic items by prior agreement. Before we leave, we ask you to check that everything has been delivered as expected.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotes are typically based on:
We will explain exactly what is included in your quote and any situations where additional costs could arise, such as significant extra items on the day or prolonged waiting time outside your control. You will always know what you are paying for.
Hiring a professional removals company is often more efficient, safer and less stressful than organising everything yourself or using an informal man-and-van. As experienced movers, we bring:
DIY moves can lead to damaged items, personal injuries and unexpected costs. With us, the responsibility for safe handling is clearly defined, and you have professional support from first enquiry to final placement.
Man and Van Kilburn operates to recognised professional standards. We hold:
We will explain the key terms of our cover, including any limits and exclusions, before you book. You are encouraged to raise any concerns or special requirements so we can advise on the best approach.
We handle every move as if it were our own. That means careful wrapping of furniture, safe stacking in the vehicle and respectful handling in shared spaces. Where possible, we use reusable protective materials such as blankets and durable crates.
We also aim to minimise waste and unnecessary journeys. Where appropriate, we can collect reusable boxes after your move, and we plan routes efficiently to reduce fuel use. If you have items to be donated or recycled, we can often integrate this into your move by agreement.
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or relocating for work, we manage complete house moves in and out of Kilburn. From initial survey to final box unloaded, we coordinate each stage so the move fits around your schedule, keys collection and any third parties such as estate agents.
Businesses rely on us to move offices, studios and retail spaces efficiently. We can label and group items by department or function, handle IT equipment with care and work during evenings or weekends where agreed to reduce downtime.
Sometimes moves need to happen quickly: a last-minute tenancy change, urgent completion date, or emergency situation. Subject to availability, we can provide same-day or short-notice removal services in Kilburn, focusing on safety and clear communication even when time is tight.
The cost depends on volume, distance, access and the level of service you choose. Smaller flat moves within Kilburn are usually charged on an hourly basis with a minimum booking period, while larger house or office moves are often priced as a fixed quote following a survey. Additional services such as packing, materials and disassembly will be itemised clearly. Once we understand your move, we provide a detailed quote so you know exactly what is included and can compare options confidently.
Yes, we can often help with same-day or urgent moves in Kilburn, depending on vehicle and crew availability. The more information you can provide when you call, the quicker we can confirm what is realistic and safe. Urgent moves may be subject to different pricing due to scheduling and resource constraints, but we will always confirm costs in advance. Even on short notice, we maintain our usual standards of professional handling, clear communication and fully insured service.
We provide goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are being moved, as well as public liability cover for accidental damage to property or third parties. These policies are designed to give you peace of mind during the move. We will explain key terms, such as claim limits, excesses and any excluded items, before you confirm your booking. For particularly high-value items, we may recommend additional cover or special handling arrangements to ensure they are properly protected.
A standard removal service includes a suitable vehicle, a trained removals team, loading at your current address, safe transport and unloading at your new property. We protect furniture with blankets and use straps and trolleys where appropriate. You can add on packing, materials, furniture disassembly and reassembly, and additional stops such as storage. All inclusions and optional extras are set out clearly in your quote, so you can decide exactly how much help you want from us.
A basic man-and-van can be suitable for very small, simple moves, but it often lacks the structure, insurance and planning of a professional removals service. With us, you get trained staff, suitable vehicles, goods in transit insurance, public liability cover and a clear process from survey through to completion. We assess access, provide written quotes, and allocate the right team for the job. This reduces risk of damage, delays and unexpected costs, and gives you a reliable point of contact throughout.
For best availability and pricing, we recommend booking as soon as you have a confirmed move date, ideally 2–3 weeks in advance for larger moves. However, we understand that dates can change, especially when buying or selling property, so we try to remain as flexible as possible. If you are moving at the end of the month or during peak periods, earlier booking is strongly advised. We also handle short-notice moves where we have capacity, so it is always worth calling to check.
At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide secure, flexible storage solutions for households, landlords, students and businesses across Kilburn and the surrounding areas. As an experienced local removals and storage company, we combine safe facilities with a careful, professional team to give you straightforward, stress-free storage whenever you need extra space.
Our storage service is designed to be simple. We collect your items, protect and load them carefully, store them securely for as long as you need, then deliver them back when you are ready.
We work with:
Everything is itemised, wrapped as needed, and stored in secure units with controlled access. You deal with one team from collection to redelivery, which keeps things organised and efficient.
We are based in and around Kilburn, and we know the area well – from mansion blocks on Shoot-Up Hill to compact flats near Kilburn High Road and businesses along the A5. That local knowledge helps us plan:
Because we’re nearby, we can often arrange same-day collections for urgent storage, and we’re on hand when you need your items back quickly.
If you’re decluttering before a sale, renovating, or between homes, our storage gives you a safe place for furniture, appliances and personal items until your new place is ready.
Short-term lets and overlapping tenancies can be awkward. We can collect from your current flat, store everything securely, and deliver to your next property on the date you choose.
We help landlords store furniture during refurbishments, changeovers or when switching a property from furnished to unfurnished. We can also combine storage with removals and clearance if needed.
Offices, retailers and trades use our storage for stock, archived documents, displays, seasonal items and equipment. We provide a reliable, fully insured collection and redelivery service to minimise disruption to your operations.
If you’re heading home for the holidays or going abroad, we offer student storage for boxes, suitcases, small furniture and bikes, with flexible collection and return dates to suit term times.
In most cases, if it can be moved safely, we can store it. Typical items include:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from storage. We cannot accept:
If you’re unsure about a specific item, please ask – we’ll advise honestly and recommend alternatives where needed.
You contact us with a rough list of what needs storing, your collection address in or around Kilburn, and your likely storage duration. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote covering collection, storage and redelivery.
For larger jobs, we arrange a short virtual or onsite survey. This lets us assess access, item volumes, and any special handling needs. It ensures we send the right team, vehicle and packing materials, and that the price we give you is accurate and fair.
You can pack your own boxes, or choose our professional packing service. On collection day we protect furniture with covers and pads, wrap delicate items where needed, and label boxes clearly for easy retrieval later.
Our trained team load your belongings carefully, using trolleys, straps and blankets to prevent damage. Everything is checked against an inventory as it goes on the vehicle, then transported to our secure storage facility.
On arrival, your items are unloaded into your allocated storage space. Boxes and furniture are stacked safely to avoid pressure damage, and we maintain an inventory so nothing is misplaced. When you’re ready, we reverse the process and deliver everything back, placing items in the rooms you choose.
Storage costs are based on three main factors:
We provide a clear breakdown so you can see:
There are no hidden charges. If your plans change and you need more or less time, we adjust accordingly and keep you updated.
Using a professional removals and storage company is usually safer and more efficient than hiring a van and sorting storage yourself. With us you get:
DIY may seem cheaper, but once you factor in van hire, fuel, your time, potential damage and lack of insurance, a professional service often represents better overall value and peace of mind.
We take the safety of your belongings seriously. Our service includes:
We follow industry best practice for wrapping, lifting and stacking, and keep clear records of what we store. While we treat your possessions as if they were our own, the insurance adds an extra layer of reassurance.
We focus on careful handling and a responsible approach:
Our aim is to keep your belongings safe while minimising waste and unnecessary environmental impact.
Chains don’t always align neatly. We frequently store full house contents for a few days or weeks between completion dates, ensuring everything is secure until your new keys are in hand.
Businesses use us to hold furniture, files and IT equipment while new premises are being fitted out. We can deliver in stages to match your fit-out schedule, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Sometimes you need space at very short notice – a last-minute move, a landlord requiring a clear-out, or emergency works. Subject to availability, we can arrange same-day or next-day collection in Kilburn and get your items safely into storage fast.
Storage costs depend mainly on how much space you need and for how long. We’ll usually ask for a list of items or photos so we can estimate the volume accurately. Your quote will show the collection cost, weekly or monthly storage rate, and redelivery charge. There are no hidden extras, and if you end up needing more or less time than planned, we adjust your billing accordingly. For the most accurate price, contact us with your details and preferred dates.
In many cases, yes. Because we’re local to Kilburn and operate our own vehicles, we can often arrange same-day or next-day collection for urgent storage needs, subject to availability. This is particularly useful if a move date changes unexpectedly or you need to clear a property quickly. The more information you can provide when you call – location, access, item list – the faster we can confirm timings and costs. We’ll always be honest about what’s realistically achievable.
Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while being moved and by our standard cover within the storage facility, subject to terms and value limits. We’ll explain the level of protection included as part of your quote. For particularly high-value items, we may recommend you speak with your own insurer to arrange additional cover if needed. We also reduce risk through careful packing, professional handling and secure, monitored storage conditions.
Our standard service includes collection from your Kilburn property, protective wrapping of furniture, safe loading, transport to our facility, secure storage space, and redelivery when you’re ready. You can add optional services such as full or partial packing, supply of boxes and packing materials, and disposal of unwanted items. We’ll tailor the service to your situation, whether you’re storing a few boxes or an entire property’s contents, and provide a clear breakdown in writing.
A casual man-and-van typically provides transport only, often without proper insurance, trained staff or secure storage. We operate as a professional removals and storage company, with trained teams, the right equipment, and structured processes. Your items are inventoried, protected and stored in a managed facility rather than left in ad hoc spaces. You also benefit from goods in transit insurance and public liability cover, along with clear communication and confirmed bookings.
For the best choice of dates and times, it’s sensible to book 1–2 weeks in advance, especially during busy periods such as summer and month-end. That said, we understand that plans change and not every storage need is predictable. If you need storage at short notice in Kilburn, contact us and we’ll do our best to fit you in. Once booked, we’ll confirm everything in writing so you know exactly what to expect on collection day.
At Man and Van Kilburn, our dedicated Packing and Boxes service is designed to take the stress and risk out of your move. As a local Kilburn removals company, we know how to pack quickly, securely and efficiently, using the right materials for every item so your belongings arrive in the same condition they left.
Our packing service covers everything from supplying sturdy removal boxes to carefully wrapping and labelling the contents of your home or office. Whether you want a full pack, a part-pack for fragile items only, or just quality boxes and materials delivered to your door, we tailor our service to how you live and what you own.
We use purpose-made moving cartons, double-walled boxes, wardrobe boxes, archive cartons, bubble wrap, packing paper and tape to ensure every item is properly protected. Our trained team follow proven techniques so that boxes are not overfilled, heavy items are supported, and nothing is left loose or vulnerable.
Working in Kilburn every day means we understand local properties, parking restrictions and building layouts. From mansion blocks along the Kilburn High Road to Victorian terraces and modern flats, we know how to plan packing so that move day runs smoothly and safely.
We can provide virtual or onsite surveys in Kilburn and surrounding areas, advising you on the right number and type of boxes, where to start packing, and how to minimise disruption to your home or business.
If you are selling or buying in Kilburn, we can complete a full pack of your property, usually the day before the move. We protect furniture, artwork, mirrors and ornaments, and ensure boxes are clearly labelled by room for straightforward unpacking at your new home.
For tenants moving between rented properties, our flexible part-pack options are ideal. We can handle the fragile and awkward items while you tackle clothes and everyday belongings, keeping costs sensible but still ensuring that breakable goods are professionally protected.
Landlords in Kilburn use our service when clearing or dressing properties. We carefully pack existing contents, store or relocate them, and provide clear labelling so inventories remain accurate and you stay organised between tenancies.
Offices, retailers and small businesses rely on our professional packing when relocating or refurbishing. We supply archive boxes for files, IT-safe packing for computers and screens, and a system that keeps workstations and departments clearly identified to reduce downtime once you arrive at the new premises.
Students moving into or out of Kilburn accommodation benefit from our compact, budget-friendly solutions. We provide reasonably sized boxes, help with fragile items like laptops and monitors, and can store or deliver goods according to term dates and new contracts.
We can provide some or all of the following, depending on your needs:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, there are items we either cannot pack or can only move if you follow specific guidance. We will always advise you clearly before work starts. Typically excluded items include:
You contact Man and Van Kilburn with your details, dates and an overview of what needs packing. We ask a few focused questions and, where possible, request photos or a short video to understand volume and any special items. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining packing services, materials and any onward removal or storage.
For larger homes or offices in Kilburn, we recommend an onsite or virtual survey. This lets us assess access, parking, stairways and lifts, the type and number of items, and any fragile or high-value pieces. We then finalise the packing plan, estimated box count and timing so that everything fits around your schedule.
On the agreed day, our professional team arrive with all packing materials. We start with less-used rooms, pack systematically, and protect surfaces as we work. Boxes are labelled by room and contents, ensuring easy identification. Fragile and high-value items receive extra wrapping and cushioning, and furniture is disassembled if required for safe removal.
If we are also handling your move, packed boxes and wrapped furniture are loaded into our vehicles using a logical, secured loading pattern. We use straps and blankets to keep everything in place. Our fully insured vans then transport your goods to your new address or to storage, depending on your plan.
On arrival, we unload and place boxes into the rooms indicated on the labels. Furniture is positioned where requested and reassembled if previously dismantled. If you have booked an unpacking service, we can also unbox, remove packing materials, and help you get the essentials in place so you can settle in more quickly.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our quotes typically include:
Pricing is influenced by volume, access, the level of packing required (full vs part-pack), and timing (weekday vs weekend, standard vs urgent). We explain every line of the quote so you know exactly what you are paying for, with no hidden extras.
Packing yourself can seem cheaper, but it often leads to rushed jobs, broken items and disorganised boxes. Our trained packers use the correct techniques and materials to prevent damage, saving you time and reducing stress.
We also understand how insurance works: if items are poorly packed, claims can be rejected. By using a professional service, you gain the reassurance that your belongings are prepared in line with industry standards, and that liability is clear.
Man and Van Kilburn operates with robust protection for your belongings and your property:
Our procedures are designed to minimise risk, and we are always happy to explain how cover applies in practical terms so you know where you stand.
We treat your belongings as if they were our own. Corners, edges and surfaces are protected, and we plan safe routes through your property to avoid knocks or scrapes. Whenever practical, we reuse sturdy boxes and offer a collection service for used cartons, helping to reduce waste.
We favour recyclable materials where possible and avoid unnecessary plastic. If you want to reuse boxes, we can advise on which to keep and how to store them for your next move.
Families and individuals moving within or out of Kilburn often book a full packing service the day before completion. We pack, label and prepare everything so that move day itself focuses purely on loading, transport and delivery.
For businesses changing premises, we implement a structured packing plan with colour-coded labels for departments and desks. IT equipment is packed with anti-static protection, and archive boxes are clearly numbered to match your filing system.
Sometimes moves are confirmed at short notice. Where our schedule allows, we provide an urgent packing and boxes service in Kilburn, supplying materials and a focused team to get everything ready quickly but safely.
The cost depends on the volume of items, level of service and type of materials required. Smaller flats may only need a few hours of labour and a modest number of boxes, while larger homes or offices will naturally be more. We typically price packing as a combination of materials plus hourly or fixed labour. After a brief discussion or survey, we provide a detailed written quote so you know exactly what is included before you commit.
Where our schedule allows, we can provide same-day or very short-notice packing in Kilburn. Urgent bookings depend on availability of both staff and materials, so contacting us as early as possible is essential. We prioritise safety and care even on tight timeframes, so we will be honest about what is realistically achievable. If we cannot complete a full pack, we may recommend focusing on fragile and high-value items first, with you handling the rest.
Yes. Our goods in transit insurance covers your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, and our public liability cover protects against accidental damage to property or third parties. Certain items or circumstances may be subject to conditions or limits, which we are happy to explain before work begins. For full protection, we recommend that our trained team carry out the packing rather than self-pack, as this ensures items are prepared to recognised standards.
Our service can include supply of all boxes and materials, full or partial packing by our team, labelling, furniture protection, and, if booked, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. You can also opt just to purchase high-quality boxes and packing supplies from us. We tailor the exact package to your situation, agreeing everything in writing in advance so you know what we will do and what you may wish to handle yourself.
A casual man-and-van typically provides transport only, with little or no responsibility for how items are packed or protected. Man and Van Kilburn offers a structured, professional packing and removals service, with trained staff, proper materials, and fully insured vehicles. We plan, label and protect your belongings, rather than just loading whatever is ready. This reduces the risk of damage, avoids confusion on arrival, and gives you far clearer accountability throughout the move.
Ideally, you should book as soon as you have a likely move date. For most Kilburn homes, 2–3 weeks’ notice gives us time to schedule surveys, order specific materials if needed, and plan your packing day calmly. During busy periods, such as the end of the month and peak summer, slots can fill quickly. That said, we regularly help clients at shorter notice, so it is always worth asking; we will offer the best options available.
At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide organised, low-disruption office removals in Kilburn and the surrounding areas. As a local, experienced removals company, we understand how important it is to move your business quickly, safely and with minimal downtime.
Our office removals service is designed for businesses that need a professional, well-planned move rather than a basic van hire. We handle everything from small offices in shared spaces to multi-floor relocations, looking after your staff, your equipment and your schedule.
Every move is carefully planned: we assess access, parking, IT requirements and building rules so moving day runs smoothly. Our teams are trained, uniformed and fully insured, using the right equipment and materials to protect your office furniture and technology.
Being based in Kilburn means we know the local streets, loading bays and parking restrictions extremely well. That local knowledge helps us plan around:
This reduces delays and keeps your move on schedule, whether you’re relocating within Kilburn or moving to another part of London or the UK.
Our service is flexible enough to support a wide range of clients in and around Kilburn:
If you run a business from home or have a dedicated home office, we can move your desks, computers and filing safely to your new property or co-working space.
For those in rented offices or shared workspaces, we manage moves between serviced offices, hot-desking hubs and flexible work locations, working within landlord rules and time windows.
We assist landlords and property managers when clearing commercial premises between tenants, removing office furniture and equipment while protecting the building.
From small start-ups to established companies, we handle office relocations, internal moves, downsizing and expansion across single or multiple sites.
Students and freelancers with a growing amount of office equipment – monitors, chairs, filing and stock – benefit from a structured move rather than juggling it alone.
Our office removals service typically covers:
To keep your move safe and compliant, there are some items we typically exclude:
If you are unsure about a particular item, we will advise during the survey so alternative arrangements can be made where needed.
You contact us with basic details of your move: addresses, dates, size of office and any key requirements. We discuss your needs and provide an initial estimate. For straightforward moves, we can often give a fixed price at this stage.
For most office moves, we recommend a survey. This can be done via video call or an onsite visit in Kilburn. We assess access, lifts, staircases, parking and the volume of items. This allows us to plan vehicle size, crew numbers, timing and any specialist equipment.
We offer full packing, part packing or self-packing options. Where required, our team packs IT equipment, files and furniture using appropriate materials. Desks and large items are dismantled as needed, and everything is labelled clearly so it ends up in the right place at your new office.
On moving day, our professional team arrives on time, protects floors and walls, and loads in a safe, systematic order. Vehicles are equipped with blankets, straps and trolleys. Your goods are carried in sign-written, well-maintained vans and protected by goods in transit insurance throughout the journey.
At the destination, we unload and place items into the correct rooms or departments as agreed in the plan. We reassemble furniture we dismantled and position desks, meeting tables and cabinets so your team can get back to work as quickly as possible.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing. Our quotes are based on:
Before you book, you will receive a written quotation detailing what is included, any optional extras and how long the move is expected to take. There are no hidden charges for standard items we have agreed in advance.
While it can be tempting to organise a move using your own staff or a casual van, professional office removals offer important advantages:
In practice, a professional move often works out more cost-effective when you factor in time saved, reduced disruption and fewer breakages.
Man and Van Kilburn operates to high professional standards for every office move. We provide:
We are happy to provide proof of insurance and risk assessments where required by building management or your internal policies.
We treat your office contents with the same care we would give our own. Floors, doors and lifts are protected where necessary, and items are packed and secured to minimise movement in transit. For IT equipment and confidential files, we agree procedures to maintain security and privacy.
We also take a responsible approach to the environment. Wherever possible, we reuse durable packing materials, minimise unnecessary journeys and offer clearance and recycling options for unwanted office furniture and equipment.
Moving your entire office to a new building, either within Kilburn or across London, with packing, transport and setup handled for you.
Rearranging teams, departments or floors within the same building, including desk moves, storage changes and meeting room reconfiguration.
Supporting businesses moving to smaller spaces or hybrid working, including removal of surplus furniture and relocation to storage or secondary sites.
When leases change unexpectedly or urgent works are needed, we can often provide rapid response office removals, subject to availability, to keep your business operating.
The cost of an office removal in Kilburn depends on the size of your office, the volume of items, access at both ends, the distance travelled and whether you need packing or evening/weekend work. Smaller office moves might be charged on an hourly rate, while larger relocations are usually quoted at a fixed price after a survey. Our quotes are transparent and itemised so you can see exactly what you’re paying for, and we’re happy to adjust the specification to match your budget.
Yes, we can often help with same-day or short-notice office removals, particularly within Kilburn and nearby areas. Availability will depend on our existing bookings, the size of your move and access arrangements. For urgent relocations, we focus on the essentials first – critical IT equipment, desks and key files – then plan any additional moves or clearance afterwards. Contact us as early as possible, even if your plans are not final, so we can hold potential slots and discuss realistic options.
Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved and by public liability cover while we are working on your premises. This is designed to protect against the unexpected, although we still handle everything with great care. We will explain the key terms and any limits or exclusions before you book, and we can provide policy details or certificates if your landlord, building management or insurer needs to see them ahead of moving day.
Our standard service includes supplying a trained crew, suitable vehicles, protective blankets and equipment, loading, transport and unloading into the agreed rooms or areas. We can also provide packing materials, full or part packing services, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and clearance of unwanted items as optional extras. Before you confirm the booking, we set out clearly what is included in your quote so there is no confusion on the day and you know exactly what to expect from our team.
A professional office removals service goes far beyond simply turning up with a van. We plan the move, carry out surveys, coordinate with building management, provide trained crews and hold full insurance. We use appropriate packing, labelling and protection methods, and we understand how to minimise business disruption. A casual man-and-van may be cheaper initially but often lacks planning, equipment and insurance, which can lead to delays, damage or unexpected costs. For business-critical office moves, a structured, professional approach is usually the safer choice.
For most office removals, we recommend booking at least two to four weeks in advance, especially if you need a specific date or are moving at month-end when demand is higher. Larger or more complex moves may benefit from longer planning times so we can schedule surveys, packing days and any out-of-hours work. That said, we will always do our best to accommodate shorter notice where we can. The earlier you contact us, the more options we can offer in terms of dates and crew size.
At Man and Van Kilburn we provide a professional, fully managed man with a van service across Kilburn and the surrounding areas. Unlike casual listings or one‑man bands, we are a structured removals company with trained, uniformed staff, modern vehicles and full insurance cover.
Whether you are moving a few items across town or planning a small flat or office move, we deliver a calm, organised and efficient service tailored to your needs and your budget.
Ideal for smaller property moves, partial moves or clearing items into storage. If you are downsizing, renovating, or moving selected furniture between homes, our man with a van team can handle heavy lifting, protection and transport for you.
Perfect for studio, 1 or 2‑bed flat moves in and around Kilburn. We regularly help tenants move between rentals, often in busy time slots at the end of the month, ensuring everything is moved safely and on schedule.
We work with landlords and letting agents to clear properties between tenancies, move furniture in or out, and transport appliances. Our flexible slots make it easy to coordinate with cleaning and maintenance teams.
Small office relocations, movement of IT equipment, archive boxes, stock deliveries and trade event setups are all supported. Our professional team understand the importance of protecting equipment and minimising disruption.
Students moving to or from Kilburn halls and shared houses benefit from our affordable, smaller-load service. We can move your belongings between home, halls and storage quickly and safely, often with short notice.
Our vans are equipped to move most household and office items, including:
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, there are some items we may not be able to carry, such as:
If you are unsure about a specific item, please ask when you enquire. We can often suggest safe alternatives or arrange specialist support.
Contact us by phone, email or our online form with your Kilburn addresses, rough inventory and preferred date. We will ask a few quick questions about access, floors, lifts and parking. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote with either an hourly rate or a fixed price, depending on the job.
For straightforward jobs, photos or a short video call are often enough. For larger or more complex moves, we can arrange an onsite survey in Kilburn. This allows us to assess access, item sizes and any special requirements, ensuring we send the right size vehicle and the correct number of movers.
You can pack your own belongings, or we can provide a packing service and materials. On moving day, we protect furniture with blankets, covers and straps. Fragile items are wrapped and labelled. Our team make sure everything is ready to be moved safely before anything leaves the property.
Our trained movers handle all lifting, carrying and loading, using trolleys and equipment where needed. Items are loaded in a logical order to maximise space and protect fragile pieces. We then transport your goods directly to the destination using our well-maintained vans, driven by experienced local drivers who know Kilburn’s roads and parking challenges.
At your new address, we unload everything into the rooms you choose, not just the hallway. We place furniture where you want it, subject to safe lifting guidelines, and will re-check the van at the end to ensure nothing has been left behind. Once you are satisfied, we complete the paperwork and you can settle into your new space.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no hidden extras. Our man with a van service is usually priced either:
Your quote will explain exactly what is included: number of movers, size of van, estimated time and any additional services such as packing or furniture dismantling. Parking fees, congestion or ULEZ charges (where applicable) will always be discussed in advance so there are no surprises on the day.
Using a professional removals company like Man and Van Kilburn offers significant advantages over doing it yourself or hiring an unverified individual:
DIY may appear cheaper at first, but when you factor in van hire, fuel, your time, potential damage and the stress involved, a professional man with a van service usually offers far better overall value.
We operate to professional removals standards, with full insurance in place for your peace of mind:
We are happy to explain our cover in more detail and provide proof of insurance on request.
We treat your possessions as if they were our own. Furniture is wrapped and protected, fragile items clearly marked, and loads are secured with straps to prevent movement in transit. Our professional approach minimises the risk of damage to both your items and the properties we are working in.
Where possible, we use reusable moving blankets and durable containers rather than single-use materials. We plan routes efficiently to reduce fuel usage and can often combine smaller loads to cut down on unnecessary journeys, supporting a more sustainable way of working.
From studio apartments to small family homes, our service is ideal for local moves within Kilburn or short-distance relocations. We can handle everything from a few large pieces to complete smaller-property moves.
We frequently assist with small office relocations, internal moves between floors, and delivery of equipment or stock. Our team can work outside normal office hours to minimise disruption.
Last-minute tenancy changes, urgent clearances or cancelled vans can all be stressful. Subject to availability, we can often provide same-day or next-day man with a van support in Kilburn, helping you keep plans on track.
Pricing depends on the size of van required, number of movers, distance between properties and how long the job takes. Smaller local moves are often charged by the hour, with a minimum booking period. Larger or more defined moves may be quoted at a fixed price. To give you an accurate figure, we will ask for a list of items, addresses and any access details. There are no hidden costs: any parking, congestion or ULEZ charges will be explained clearly in your quote.
Yes, we can often help with same-day or short-notice bookings in Kilburn, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. If your original plans have fallen through or you need an urgent clearance, contact us as early as possible with your details. We will check availability of vans and crews and let you know what we can offer. While we cannot guarantee every emergency request, we do our best to accommodate genuine urgent moves.
Yes. Our service includes goods in transit insurance for items we carry in our vehicles, along with public liability cover for work at the properties. This provides financial protection in the unlikely event of loss or damage, subject to policy terms and any declared value limits. We still handle everything with great care to avoid claims in the first place. If you have particularly high-value items, let us know in advance so we can confirm cover and any special handling requirements.
Our standard service includes the van, professional driver, one or more trained movers, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. We place items into the rooms of your choice and protect furniture with blankets and straps during transit. Optional extras include packing, supply of boxes and materials, and dismantling or reassembly of certain furniture. Your quote will spell out exactly what is included so you know what to expect on the day, and we are happy to tailor the service to your needs.
A full removals service typically covers larger, whole-house or office moves with more planning, full packing, multiple staff and sometimes multiple vehicles. A man with a van is better suited to smaller loads: flats, partial moves, single bulky items or student moves. At Man and Van Kilburn we bridge the gap by offering a professional, insured man with a van service delivered to removals standards, giving you flexibility without losing reliability or care.
For best availability and choice of time slots, booking 1–2 weeks in advance is recommended, especially at busy times such as month-end and weekends. However, we know that moves do not always go to plan. We often accommodate bookings made just a few days before, and sometimes same-day, depending on capacity. As soon as you know your date, get in touch and we will hold a slot for you and confirm all details in writing, so you can plan with confidence.
Man and Van Kilburn is one of the local removal companies that genuinely knows Kilburn inside out. With years of hands-on experience on these streets, we provide a careful, efficient and professional removals service for homes, offices and students across NW6 and the surrounding areas.
We offer a complete, end-to-end removals service tailored to what you need on the day. Whether you are moving a studio flat, a family home or a commercial space, our trained team handles every stage – from packing and dismantling, to transport and unloading – with attention to detail.
Our core services include:
Every move is planned in advance so moving day runs smoothly, without surprises.
Working daily in Kilburn and nearby areas such as West Hampstead, Queen's Park and Maida Vale, we understand local parking rules, building access restrictions and peak traffic patterns. That local knowledge allows us to plan routes efficiently and avoid delays.
We are used to navigating narrow streets, controlled parking zones and top-floor flats with no lift. If permits or special access are required, we help you arrange them in advance so the job can be carried out safely and on time.
If you are upsizing, downsizing or moving out of Kilburn, we manage your household move from initial survey to final placement of furniture. We take extra care with high-value items such as artwork, antiques and electronics.
For tenants moving between rented properties, we offer flexible timings and reliable support with packing, dismantling beds and wardrobes, and protecting floors and walls, helping you leave the property in good condition.
We assist landlords with professional removals for cleared properties, end-of-tenancy furniture changes and storage transfers. We can work to tight turnarounds between tenancies.
From small offices to retail units, we provide structured office removals that minimise downtime. Desks, IT equipment, filing systems and stock are packed and labelled methodically so you can restart operations quickly.
Students moving into or out of Kilburn benefit from our affordable, smaller-scale moves. We regularly move suitcases, boxes, bikes and a few bits of furniture between halls, shared houses and storage.
We regularly move:
For safety and insurance reasons, some items are excluded or require prior agreement:
If you are unsure about a specific item, we will clarify this during the survey so expectations are clear.
Contact us by phone or email with basic details of your move: addresses, property type, access and approximate volume. We provide an initial estimate and explain the next steps. Quotes are transparent and free of obligation.
For anything more than a very small move, we carry out a virtual or onsite survey. This allows us to assess access, parking, staircases, lift sizes and the volume of belongings. From this, we confirm a fixed or clearly itemised quotation so you know exactly what is included.
You can choose between:
On the day, we protect floors, doorways and bannisters as needed, and dismantle furniture where required.
Our trained team loads your items systematically, using blankets, straps and protective coverings. Vans are chosen to match the size of your move. We plan routes in advance and keep you updated on timings throughout the journey.
At your new property, we unload and place furniture and boxes into the correct rooms, following your instructions. Where agreed, we reassemble dismantled items such as beds and wardrobes. We carry out a final check with you before leaving to ensure nothing has been missed.
We believe in clear, upfront pricing. Costs are based on:
For smaller moves we may offer an hourly rate with a minimum booking period. Larger moves are typically priced as a fixed quotation. Any potential extra costs (such as late key release or waiting times) are explained clearly before you book.
Hiring a professional removals company in Kilburn saves time, effort and reduces risk. We bring the right equipment, vehicles and experience to handle heavy and awkward items safely. This helps prevent damage to your belongings and to the properties you are leaving and entering.
DIY or casual man-and-van options may seem cheaper at first glance, but they often lack goods in transit insurance, public liability cover and trained staff. If something goes wrong, you may have little or no protection. With Man and Van Kilburn, your items are handled with care and backed by proper cover.
Your belongings are important, and we treat them accordingly. Our service includes:
We follow recognised industry practices for packing, lifting and securing items. Risk assessments are carried out where appropriate, especially for commercial moves and properties with restricted access.
We take a careful, structured approach to protecting your belongings and the environment:
By planning thoroughly and handling items methodically, we reduce the risk of damage and waste, helping your move be as smooth and sustainable as practicable.
A family relocating from a Kilburn flat to a nearby house might need full packing, dismantling of wardrobes and beds, careful handling of children’s belongings and timed key collection. We coordinate all of this to fit your completion day schedule.
A small business moving from a shared workspace to a dedicated office may require weekend or evening work to avoid disruption, plus structured packing of IT and documents. We label and plan the move so your team can be operational quickly.
Sometimes moves come up at short notice – a tenancy ending sooner than expected or a last-minute completion date. Where capacity allows, we provide same-day or next-day removals, focusing on essential items first, then arranging follow-up trips if required.
Costs vary depending on the size of your move, access and distance between properties. Smaller flat moves may be charged by the hour with a minimum booking, while larger house or office moves are usually priced as a fixed quote after a survey. Factors such as stairs, long carries, parking restrictions and additional services like packing can affect the price. We always provide a clear written estimate or quotation before you book so you know exactly what is covered and can budget accordingly.
Yes, subject to availability we can often assist with same-day or short-notice removals in Kilburn and nearby areas. If you need an urgent move, contact us as early as possible with key details so we can check vehicle and crew availability. For emergency situations, we may focus on moving essential items first and arrange further trips if required. While we cannot guarantee same-day slots at all times, we will always be honest about what we can realistically achieve on your preferred date.
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance to cover your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, and public liability cover for work on-site. During the survey and booking process, we will outline the cover levels and any conditions, such as packing standards for fragile items. It is important that valuables are properly boxed and that we are informed of particularly high-value items. We also recommend that you keep important documents, jewellery and cash with you, as these are usually excluded from removals insurance.
Our standard service includes loading, transport and unloading of your belongings between properties, plus basic protection for furniture and property. We can add services such as packing, supply of boxes and materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and disposal of certain unwanted items by prior agreement. The exact scope will be set out in your quotation so there is no uncertainty on moving day. If you have specific requirements, such as evening moves, storage runs or multiple drop-off points, we can usually accommodate these with proper planning.
While we do offer flexible smaller moves, we operate as a professional removals company rather than a casual man-and-van. That means trained teams, appropriate vehicles, protective equipment, goods in transit insurance and public liability cover. We carry out surveys, provide written quotations and plan moves in detail. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and misunderstandings. A basic man-and-van may suit a few boxes, but for full household or office moves, professional removals provide a more reliable, safer and better organised service.
Ideally, book as soon as you have a confirmed move date, particularly if you are moving at the end of the month, on a Friday or during summer, when demand is highest. For most moves, two to four weeks’ notice gives us time to survey, plan and arrange packing if needed. However, we understand that dates can change, so we remain as flexible as possible. If you are unsure of your completion date, we can pencil in a provisional booking and confirm once your plans are finalised.
At Man and Van Kilburn, we provide straightforward, well-organised removals across Kilburn and the surrounding areas. With years of hands-on experience moving households, flats and offices, we understand how to plan and carry out a move so that everything arrives safely, on time and with minimal stress.
Our removals service covers every stage of your move, from the first enquiry to placing furniture in the right rooms at your new address. Whether you’re moving round the corner in NW6 or across London, we tailor the job to your property, access, timings and budget.
We can handle anything from a small flat move with a single van to a full household or office relocation with multiple vehicles and a larger crew.
Working daily in Kilburn means we know the area and its challenges very well: tight streets, controlled parking zones, busy high roads and period properties with narrow staircases. We plan around all of this so your move runs smoothly.
We regularly move customers in and around Kilburn High Road, Brondesbury, West Hampstead, Queen’s Park and Maida Vale. We can help with parking suspensions, building access requirements and timing your move to avoid peak traffic where possible.
For safety, insurance and legal reasons, there are items we normally cannot carry, including:
If you’re unsure about a particular item, we’ll confirm what’s possible during your quote or survey.
Contact us by phone or online with the basics of your move: current address, destination, property size, preferred dates and any specific access issues. We’ll ask a few clarifying questions and provide an initial estimate or guide price for your Kilburn removals job.
For anything more than a very small move, we recommend a survey. This can be done virtually via video call or onsite at your property. We assess volume, access (stairs, lifts, parking), special items and any dismantling required. The survey lets us give you an accurate, fixed quotation with no hidden extras, as long as the brief doesn’t change.
We offer both:
On the day, we protect furniture with blankets, covers and shrink-wrap as needed, and we can dismantle and reassemble standard beds and flat-pack items if agreed in advance.
Our movers load your belongings carefully, securing everything inside the vans to prevent movement in transit. We plan the route from Kilburn to your destination and keep you updated on timings. All journeys are covered by goods in transit insurance for your peace of mind.
On arrival, we unload and place items into the rooms you specify. Boxes are stacked sensibly, heavier items at the bottom. We reassemble any furniture we dismantled and carry out a final walk-through so you can confirm you’re happy before we leave.
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. For most moves we offer a fixed price based on:
Your quotation will clearly list what’s included, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Hourly rate options may be available for smaller moves within Kilburn where appropriate.
Hiring a professional removals team is about more than just having a van. We bring experience, planning and the right equipment. This means:
Compared with borrowing a van or using a casual man-and-van, a structured removals service offers reliability, documentation, insurance and a clear plan for moving day.
Man and Van Kilburn operates to clear, professional standards. We are:
We handle your possessions as if they were our own, using appropriate wrapping, covers and securing straps. Any specific requirements can be discussed and confirmed in writing before the job.
Care starts with preparation. We use removal blankets, mattress and sofa covers, floor protectors and shrink-wrap where required. Fragile items are packed with cushioning and clearly marked, and we pay close attention when moving items through tight hallways and stairwells common in Kilburn properties.
We also aim to work responsibly: boxes and packing materials are reused where possible, and we can collect used boxes after your move for recycling or re-use, by prior arrangement. Routes are planned efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage.
From family homes to compact terraces, we regularly help homeowners move in and out of Kilburn. We coordinate with your schedule, work around completion times and keep everything organised so the day runs as smoothly as possible.
For businesses, downtime matters. We can plan an office move outside your core trading hours, label and place desks and equipment to your floor plan, and ensure sensitive items are handled securely. Small retail and service businesses in Kilburn High Road and nearby areas regularly use our service.
Sometimes moves come up quickly: change of tenancy, urgent landlord requests or last-minute completion dates. Where our schedule allows, we can offer same-day or short-notice removals in Kilburn, providing a structured service even when time is tight.
Costs vary depending on the size of your property, the volume of belongings, distance travelled and whether you need packing or dismantling services. A simple flat move within Kilburn will usually be less than a larger family home going across London. After a brief discussion or survey, we provide a clear, written quotation with no hidden charges, as long as the job details don’t change. This way you know exactly what to budget for before you commit.
Where our diary allows, we can often help with same-day or short-notice moves in Kilburn and nearby areas. The more detail you can give us when you call – property size, access, volume of items – the quicker we can confirm availability and a realistic timescale. While we can’t guarantee emergency slots every day, we’ll always be honest about what we can do and may suggest part-moves or staggered solutions if time is very tight.
Yes. Your belongings are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicles, and we also carry public liability cover for work at your property. This insurance is designed to protect you against unforeseen issues such as accidents in transit. We’ll explain the key points, including any limits or exclusions, before you book. For very high-value or unusual items, we may recommend you notify your own insurer as an extra precaution.
Our standard removals service includes a suitable vehicle or vehicles, a trained removals team, protective covers and blankets, loading, secure transport and unloading into the rooms you choose. We can add services such as full or partial packing, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, supply of boxes and materials, and additional trips to storage by agreement. Everything included will be set out clearly on your quotation, so there’s no confusion about what we will and won’t be doing on moving day.
A casual man-and-van usually provides transport and some lifting, often on an hourly basis, but may not offer surveys, formal quotes, insurance or trained staff. A professional removals service like ours is planned around your property and schedule, with proper packing, protection, documentation and cover in place. This structured approach reduces risk, speeds up the move and gives you clear accountability if anything goes wrong, which most informal services cannot match.
Ideally, book as soon as you have a likely moving date, especially if you’re moving at the end of the month or during busy periods such as summer. One to three weeks’ notice is common for local Kilburn moves, but we can sometimes accommodate shorter notice. Early booking gives us more flexibility to allocate the right team and vehicles and to arrange parking or access where needed. If your date isn’t fully confirmed, we can still provide a quote and pencil you in.
