- Illegal or stolen items of any kind.
- Live animals or pets (though we are happy to advise on safe transport options).

Our Step‑by‑Step Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Your move starts with a straightforward enquiry. You can call or email us with your moving dates, current and new addresses, and a brief outline of what you need moved. We will ask a few questions about access, parking and any special items. Based on this, we provide an initial, no‑obligation quotation clearly setting out what is included.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For anything more than a very small move, we arrange a survey. This can be done via video call or with a visit to your property in Egham. The survey allows us to measure volumes accurately, assess access, and identify any challenges such as narrow staircases or restricted parking. This ensures we allocate the right size vehicle, the right number of staff and the correct packing materials.
3. Packing & Preparation
On the run‑up to moving day, you can choose between:
- Full packing service – our team packs everything for you using double‑walled cartons, wrapping materials and protective covers.
- Part‑packing service – we pack fragile or high‑value items while you handle the rest.
- Owner‑packed service – you pack your own boxes; we supply materials if required.
We label boxes clearly by room, disassemble larger items where needed, and protect furniture with padded covers and mattress bags.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our trained moving team arrives promptly in uniform, with all necessary equipment. We protect floors and banisters, then load your goods systematically, securing everything inside the vehicle to prevent movement in transit. Your belongings are then transported directly to your new address using our signwritten vehicles, fully covered by goods in transit insurance.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload room by room, placing furniture and boxes where you want them. We reassemble items we dismantled, position large pieces to your instructions, and remove used packing materials where agreed. Before leaving, we invite you to walk through the property with us to confirm you are satisfied that everything is in the right place and has arrived safely.
Transparent, Fair Pricing
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing with no hidden extras. Our quotations are based on:
- Volume of goods to be moved.
- Access at both properties and any parking restrictions.
- Distance between addresses.
- Level of service – from transport‑only to full packing and unpacking.
- Any special requirements, such as high‑value or unusually heavy items.
All costs are clearly itemised in writing, so you can see exactly what you are paying for. If your plans change, we update the quote and confirm any adjustments before work goes ahead.
Why Choose Professional Movers Instead of DIY
Moving yourself or relying on a casual man‑and‑van can appear cheaper at first glance, but often leads to additional stress, delays and damage. Our professional movers in Egham bring:
- Experience in handling awkward, heavy and fragile items safely.
- Proper vehicles with tie‑rails, blankets and specialist equipment.
- Efficient loading techniques that maximise space and minimise risk.
- Full insurance protection – something many informal services lack.
- Reliable, scheduled arrival times and clear communication.
The result is a smoother move, reduced risk of injury, and less time taken off work or away from your own priorities.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Your belongings represent years of hard work and personal history, and we treat them accordingly. Egham Removals operates with:
- Goods in transit insurance to protect your items while they are being moved.
- Public liability cover in the unlikely event of accidental damage to property or third parties.
- Trained, experienced crews who follow best practice lifting and packing techniques.
Our processes are designed to minimise risk at every step, from correct use of moving equipment to secure loading and careful route planning.
Care, Protection and Our Approach to Sustainability
We place strong emphasis on care, both for your possessions and for the environment. During every move, we:
- Use high‑quality protective materials such as furniture blankets, mattress covers and corner protectors.
- Wrap fragile items individually and clearly mark boxes requiring extra care.
- Plan the layout of the vehicle to avoid crushing or undue pressure.
- Reuse cartons and packing materials where appropriate and recycle when they reach end of life.
- Group moves and plan routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage and fuel use.
The aim is simple: safeguard your belongings while keeping waste and environmental impact to a minimum.
Real‑World Moving Scenarios We Handle
Moving House Within or From Egham
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing or relocating out of the area, we manage full household removals, including loft and garage contents. Our local knowledge of Egham helps us anticipate parking, access and traffic patterns on moving day.
Office and Business Relocations
For businesses, we plan moves around your trading hours, including evenings or weekends where necessary. We label and position desks, IT equipment and archive boxes so your team can get back to work quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do movers in Egham cost?
The cost of hiring movers in Egham depends on the volume of your belongings, distance between properties, access at each address and the level of service you choose. Small local moves may be charged on a half‑day or hourly basis, while full house moves are usually priced as a fixed job. Optional extras such as packing, materials and storage will also influence the price. We provide a clear, written quotation after assessing your needs, so you know exactly what your move will cost before you commit.
Can you handle same‑day or urgent removals?
We can often help with same‑day or urgent moves in Egham, depending on our schedule and the size of the job. For smaller flat or room moves, we may be able to react at very short notice. Larger house or office relocations usually require at least some planning time to allocate the right staff and vehicles. If you have an urgent move, contact us straight away with as much detail as possible. We will confirm our availability promptly and discuss practical options to get you moved safely and on time.
What insurance cover do you provide?
All moves carried out by Egham Removals are backed by goods in transit insurance and public liability cover. Goods in transit insurance protects your belongings while they are being loaded, transported and unloaded by our team, subject to policy conditions. Public liability cover protects against accidental damage to third‑party property or injury caused during the move. We are happy to explain the cover in more detail and, if required, provide copies of our insurance certificates so you can move forward with confidence.
What is included in your removals service?
Our standard removals service includes provision of the vehicle, fuel, a trained moving crew, protective equipment, loading at your current address, safe transport, and unloading and placement at your new property. You can add optional services such as full or part packing, provision of boxes and materials, dismantling and reassembly of furniture, and short‑term storage if needed. All inclusions and exclusions are clearly listed on your quotation. If you have any particular requirements, tell us during the survey so we can build them into the move plan.
How is a professional removals service different from a man‑and‑van?
A casual man‑and‑van can be suitable for very small, low‑risk moves, but there are key differences. A professional removals service like ours uses purpose‑built vehicles, trained staff, and systematic packing and loading methods. We provide written quotations, agreed schedules, and formal insurance. We also have the equipment and experience to handle heavy, awkward and fragile items safely. This reduces the risk of damage, delays and personal injury. For most home and business moves, the added reliability and protection offered by professional movers represents good value.
How far in advance should I book movers in Egham?
To secure your preferred date, especially at busy times such as month‑end and summer, we recommend booking your Egham movers as soon as your moving date is reasonably certain. Many customers reserve their slot two to four weeks in advance. However, we understand that dates can change, and we will always do our best to accommodate adjustments where our schedule allows. If your move is short‑notice, contact us anyway – even a few days’ notice can often be enough for smaller or local moves.
