Our Step-by-Step Same Day Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Call us as early as possible. We will ask for details of both addresses, access, floors, approximate volume (or number of rooms), and any time constraints. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote, explaining what is and is not included for a same day service.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For urgent moves, we usually conduct a quick virtual survey using photos or video. For larger or more complex jobs where time allows, we may attend in person. The aim is to confirm the size of vehicle, number of movers, access issues and any special handling requirements.
3. Packing & Preparation
Ideally, belongings should be boxed and ready to go. Where required and feasible, we can provide professional packing assistance, focusing on fragile or high-risk items first. We supply removal blankets, and can bring boxes and packing materials if pre-arranged, though availability may be limited on the same day.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained team protect and load items in a logical order, using blankets, webbing and covers where appropriate. We plan the route with Camden’s traffic and restrictions in mind, aiming for safe, efficient transport. Your goods are protected under our goods in transit insurance, subject to terms and declared values.
5. Unloading & Placement
On arrival, we place furniture and boxes into the rooms you specify. We can assemble straightforward bed frames and similar items by agreement. Before leaving, we invite you to walk through the property and confirm that everything has been unloaded and positioned to your satisfaction.
Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals
Same day removals in Camden are priced to reflect the urgency, labour required and available capacity. We typically quote either:
- A fixed price for clearly defined jobs, or
- An hourly rate with a minimum charge for smaller or uncertain moves.
Your quote will set out:
- Number of movers and vehicle size
- Estimated duration and any minimum charge
- What is included (loading, travel, unloading, basic protection)
- Any additional charges (parking, congestion/ULEZ, out-of-hours)
We do not add hidden fees on the day. If the scope changes significantly, we discuss any price adjustments with you before proceeding.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van?
Under time pressure, it can be tempting to opt for the cheapest or quickest option available. There are important differences between a professional removals service and a casual man-and-van:
- Fully insured – Our work is covered by goods in transit and public liability insurance.
- Trained teams – Our crews are experienced in lifting, loading and navigating tight spaces without causing damage.
- Proper equipment – Removal vehicles, protective blankets, trolleys and straps for safe transport.
- Accountability – Written quotes, clear terms and a dedicated office contact.
- Planning – Route planning, access checks and realistic time estimates, even at short notice.
This reduces the risk of damage, delays and last-minute cancellations – issues that are especially disruptive during a same day move.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Camden Movers operates to recognised industry standards for domestic and commercial removals.
- Goods in transit insurance up to a defined limit per vehicle, covering your belongings while they are in our care.
- Public liability cover in case of accidental damage to third-party property or injury caused by our work.
- Trained moving teams who follow best practice for lifting, packing and securing loads.
Full details of our cover, exclusions and claims procedures are available on request. We encourage customers to declare any particularly high-value items so we can confirm appropriate arrangements.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Even under tight deadlines, we focus on protecting your belongings and the properties we work in.
- Use of floor protection and door covers where appropriate
- Careful handling of stairwells, lifts and communal areas
- Re-use of durable packing materials and blankets
- Optimised routing and vehicle loading to reduce unnecessary journeys
We aim to minimise waste and environmental impact while maintaining a safe, reliable service.
Real-World Same Day Removals Use Cases
Moving House in Camden at Short Notice
Occasionally, completion dates or landlord decisions change with little warning. We help homeowners and tenants relocate quickly, focusing first on essentials – beds, clothing, important documents and key furniture – then moving remaining items where time allows.
Urgent Office or Shop Relocations
For businesses in Camden needing to move or clear a site the same day, we can relocate desks, chairs, stock and equipment, or clear an office to storage. We liaise with building management where necessary and work to your operational priorities.
Students and Short-Term Lets
Students and short-let tenants often face sudden changes in accommodation. Our same day service helps move belongings between halls, flats and storage with minimal disruption, even if you only have a few hours’ notice.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a same day removal in Camden cost?
Pricing depends on the size of your move, access, distance and how quickly you need us. Smaller same day moves within Camden may be charged on an hourly basis with a minimum period, while larger properties are often quoted at a fixed price. Additional costs can include parking fees, congestion and ULEZ charges, or late-evening work. We provide a clear, itemised quote before you confirm the booking so you understand exactly what is included and how any extra time would be charged.
Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?
Same day availability depends on our schedule, vehicle capacity and crew numbers at the time you call. During busy periods, we may be fully booked, but we will always be honest about what is realistically possible. If we can help, we will agree a time window and scope of work based on the hours remaining in the day. In some cases, we might move essentials on the same day and schedule remaining items for the earliest available slot.
Are my belongings insured during a same day move?
Yes. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance while they are in our vehicles and under our control, subject to our standard terms and conditions. We also hold public liability cover for accidental damage to third-party property or injury arising from our work. Certain items and circumstances may be excluded, and there are limits on individual item values, so we recommend discussing any particularly expensive or fragile belongings when you book. We can then confirm how they will be handled and what cover applies.
What is included in a same day removals service?
Our standard same day service includes a suitable removal vehicle, a professional moving team, loading, transport, unloading and basic protection of your furniture. We position items in the rooms you specify and can carry out straightforward dismantling or reassembly by agreement. Packing assistance may be offered where time and staffing allow, but is not always guaranteed on same day bookings. Parking costs, congestion and ULEZ charges, and any materials such as boxes are listed clearly in your quote so you know what is and is not included.
How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van can work for very small, low-risk moves, but there are key differences. We provide fully insured vehicles, trained crews and proper equipment, along with written quotes and clear terms. Our teams are experienced in handling heavy and fragile items safely, planning access, and dealing with Camden’s parking and traffic restrictions. With a professional service, you have accountability, predictable pricing and support if something goes wrong. This is particularly important during same day moves, where there is little margin for error.
How far in advance do I need to book a same day removal?
For a same day move, you should contact us as early in the morning as possible. The more notice we have, the easier it is to allocate vehicles, arrange parking and plan routes. While the service is intended for urgent situations, we cannot guarantee availability at all times, especially at weekends and month-end. If your move is tomorrow or later this week, calling today greatly improves your options. Even if your timings are uncertain, we can advise on what is likely to be feasible.
