For completions or moves that have suddenly been brought forward, we provide same day removals for full or part-house moves, including fragile and high-value items.

Businesses
From small offices and shops to consulting rooms and studios, we handle same day removals for equipment, stock and office furniture, keeping downtime to a minimum.
Students
Ideal for last-minute term-time moves, halls to house moves, or storage runs when plans change unexpectedly and you need to move quickly but on a sensible budget.
What We Move on Same Day Jobs
Included Items
Our same day removals cover most everyday household and office contents, including:
- Sofas, beds, wardrobes and other large furniture

- Boxes of personal belongings, books, clothes and files
- Office desks, chairs, storage units and IT equipment
- TVs, audio systems and other electronics (properly protected)
- Bagged or boxed items from lofts, sheds and storage units
Items We Cannot Move
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, our same day removals exclude certain items:

- Unboxed loose small items that cannot be safely carried

- Industrial machinery not designed for light transport
- Excessively dirty, infested or biohazardous items
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, we will advise during your enquiry so there are no surprises on the day.
Our Step-by-Step Same Day Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quick Quote
Call us or send an online enquiry as early as possible in the day. We will ask key questions about your property type, number of items, access, timing and destination. In most cases we can provide an indicative quote immediately, subject to a quick survey.
2. Fast Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For same day work, we usually complete a rapid virtual survey using photos or video call. For larger jobs in Blackheath, we may be able to attend briefly onsite. The survey allows us to confirm vehicle size, crew numbers, access needs and the final price before we commit a team.
3. Packing & Preparation
Ideally, smaller items should be pre-packed in sealed boxes or bags. Where time permits, we offer a packing service for urgent moves, focusing on essentials and fragile items first. We bring professional moving blankets, straps and covers for furniture and appliances to protect them in transit.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained team loads systematically, starting with larger items, then boxes and smaller belongings, securing everything safely in the van. We take particular care on stairwells, tight corridors and communal areas to avoid damage. Once loaded, we head directly to your new address using the most reliable route for the time of day.
5. Unloading & Placement
On arrival, we unload into the rooms you specify, placing larger items where you want them so you can function straight away. We will reassemble straightforward furniture on request where agreed in advance. Before we leave, we check that everything listed has been delivered and placed safely.
Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals
Same day removals inevitably involve tighter scheduling, but our pricing remains clear and fair. We typically quote either:
- A fixed price for clearly defined moves, or
- An hourly rate with a minimum booking period for flexible or open-ended jobs
Your quote will explain what is included: vehicle size, number of movers, estimated duration, mileage, and any additional services such as packing or furniture assembly. Any potential extra costs (for example, extended waiting times caused by key delays) are explained upfront, so you can make an informed decision.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van
When time is short, it can be tempting to go for the cheapest option or rely on friends. In practice, rushed DIY moves often lead to damaged belongings, strained relationships and last-minute panic.
With Man with Van Blackheath you benefit from:
- Professional, uniformed movers who handle urgent moves calmly
- Correct lifting techniques to protect both your items and our team
- Appropriate equipment: trolleys, blankets, straps and tools
- Goods in transit insurance and public liability cover
- Reliable arrival times and realistic planning
Casual man-and-van operators may not offer the same level of protection, insurance or accountability, especially on complex or time-critical moves.
Insurance & Professional Standards
We take our responsibility for your belongings seriously. All same day removals are covered by:
- Goods in transit insurance – protecting your items while they are being moved in our vehicles
- Public liability cover – protecting you and your property during loading and unloading
Our crews are trained in safe handling, loading, and customer care. We work to recognised industry standards, carry out regular vehicle checks and maintain accurate records of each move.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Even on same day moves, we do not cut corners on protection. We use quality moving blankets, mattress and sofa covers, and secure fixing to prevent movement in transit. Floors and bannisters are protected wherever practical, particularly in shared or managed buildings.
We also take a responsible approach to sustainability by:
- Reusing durable packing materials wherever hygiene allows
- Planning routes efficiently to minimise unnecessary mileage
- Offering collection of reusable boxes on larger planned moves
Real-World Same Day Use Cases
Emergency House Move
A buyer’s completion date is brought forward unexpectedly, and they must vacate their Blackheath property the same day. We allocate a larger team and multiple vehicles, complete a quick virtual survey, and manage the entire move from packing through to placement by late evening.
Urgent Office Relocation
A small business needs to leave serviced offices at 24 hours’ notice. We dismantle desks, protect IT equipment, relocate to the new premises and have essential workstations operational again that night.
Student or Short-Term Let Move
A student discovers that their tenancy dates do not match up. We collect belongings from halls in Blackheath, store overnight if required, and deliver to the new address the next day, all at short notice.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a same day removals service in Blackheath cost?
Costs vary depending on the size of the move, access at each property, distance travelled and how quickly you need us on site. Smaller same day moves within Blackheath may be priced on an hourly rate with a minimum booking, while larger house or office moves are usually quoted as a fixed price. Same day work can carry a small premium due to scheduling pressures, but we always explain this clearly in advance. Contact us with basic details and we will give you an honest, no-obligation estimate.
Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?
Availability depends on our existing schedule and the size of your move, but we will always try to help. Calling early in the day gives us the best chance to allocate a team and vehicle for a same day slot. For very large properties, we may suggest a staged move – essential items on the same day and the remainder the following day. If we cannot assist, we will tell you openly rather than over-promising, and where possible suggest practical alternatives.
Are my belongings insured during a same day move?
Yes. Your items are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are being transported in our vehicles and by our public liability cover during loading and unloading. This applies to same day and pre-booked moves alike. We will outline key terms and limits when you book, and we encourage you to highlight any particularly high-value or fragile items so we can take extra precautions. Our aim is always to prevent damage in the first place through careful packing, handling and secure loading.
What exactly is included in your same day removals service?
Our standard service includes vehicle hire, fuel within the agreed area, a trained removals team, protective blankets and covers, loading at the collection address, safe transport and unloading into the rooms of your choice at the destination. By prior agreement we can also provide packing materials, an urgent packing service, basic furniture disassembly and reassembly, and removal of unwanted items. Your quote will set out precisely what is included so you know what to expect on the day and can plan accordingly.
How is a professional removals service different from a basic man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van often offers simple transport only, with limited help loading, no formal training and sometimes no meaningful insurance. Our service is a fully professional removals operation: trained staff, appropriate equipment, documented procedures and proper insurance cover. We plan your move, protect your belongings, manage awkward access and communicate clearly throughout. This is especially important on same day moves, where there is no spare time to solve unexpected problems and you need a team that can get it right first time.
How far in advance should I book if I think I may need a same day move?
If you suspect an urgent move might be needed – for example, due to a pending exchange, tenancy ending, or building works – it is wise to contact us as soon as possible. We can pencil in provisional dates or note your situation so we are ready to respond quickly. For genuine same day moves, calling early in the morning significantly increases the chances that we can accommodate you, especially for larger properties or multi-van jobs in and around Blackheath.
