Who Our Same Day Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
Completion dates can change at the last minute. If your move has been brought forward or delayed and you suddenly need to move today, we can often rearrange our fleet to accommodate a same day home move in or out of Mayfair.
Renters
Short notice from a landlord, the end of a tenancy, or a last‑minute decision to switch flats – we regularly help renters with same day flat removals, studio moves and house shares in central London.
Landlords & Agents
We support landlords and letting agents with urgent removals, including tenant clear‑outs, partial furniture removals and preparing properties for new occupants, all carried out by professional, respectful movers.
Businesses
From boutique shops and galleries to small offices and consultancies, we handle same day business removals, emergency relocations and urgent equipment moves when downtime needs to be kept to a minimum.

Our Step‑by‑Step Same Day Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quick Quote
Call us or send an online enquiry as early in the day as possible. We’ll ask brief questions about addresses, access, floors, lift availability, and what needs to be moved. For many same day jobs we can give a clear price or hourly rate on the spot.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For smaller moves, a phone discussion, photos or a quick video call is usually enough to assess the job. For larger properties, if time allows, we may carry out a short onsite or virtual survey to confirm volume, access and any special requirements.
3. Packing & Preparation
On same day moves, most customers pack themselves, but we can supply boxes and materials if required. Our team will protect key furniture with blankets and covers, and we can carry out professional disassembly of simple items like bed frames and tables where agreed.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained movers load systematically, securing items with straps and using trolleys where possible to protect both goods and property. We plan routes carefully to avoid unnecessary delays, taking account of Mayfair traffic and access restrictions.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination, we unload into the rooms you specify, placing larger items where you want them and reassembling agreed furniture. Before leaving, we do a final check with you to ensure nothing has been missed from the vehicle.
Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals
Same day removals are priced clearly and fairly. We typically work on an hourly rate structure, with a minimum booking period to cover vehicle, fuel and staff costs, or a fixed price for clearly defined jobs. The price will depend on:
- Size of vehicle required
- Number of movers
- Distance between addresses
- Access issues, stairs and parking arrangements
- Any extra services such as packing or furniture assembly
All costs are explained before you confirm your booking. There are no hidden charges for standard insurance cover or basic protective materials.
Why Choose Professional Same Day Removals Over DIY
When time is tight, attempting a DIY move with hired vans and friends can quickly become stressful and risky. By using a professional same day removals team you benefit from:
- Trained staff who move heavy and delicate items safely
- Appropriate vehicles with securing points and protective equipment
- Reduced risk of damage to property, belongings and yourself
- Faster, more efficient loading and unloading
- Fully insured cover that casual helpers do not provide
This is particularly important in Mayfair, where buildings are often high‑value and access is restricted – a professional approach protects you, your items and the property.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Man and a Van Mayfair operates to recognised industry standards, giving you peace of mind even on urgent moves:
- Goods in transit insurance covering your belongings while they are in our vehicle
- Public liability cover in case of accidental damage to third‑party property
- Trained moving teams with experience in complex London moves
- Sign‑written, well‑maintained vehicles
- Clear terms and conditions provided before work starts
We treat every same day move with the same care and attention as a planned removal, even when timings are tight.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We take care not only of your belongings, but also of the buildings we work in and the environment:
- Use of padded blankets, straps and floor protection where necessary
- Careful handling to avoid scuffs on walls, doors and lifts
- Reusable covers and materials wherever possible
- Route planning to minimise unnecessary mileage and emissions
- Option to collect used boxes for re‑use or recycling on later visits
Real‑World Same Day Use Cases in Mayfair
Last‑Minute Home Move
A completion date was brought forward for a couple moving from a Mayfair apartment to a property just outside London. We provided a same day service with a two‑man team, disassembled key furniture, coordinated with the building concierge, and completed the move within the afternoon window.
Urgent Office Relocation
A small financial services business needed to vacate an office near Berkeley Square with less than 24 hours’ notice. We supplied a professional team, moved desks, chairs, IT equipment and files to their new serviced office, and ensured everything was in place before staff arrived the next morning.
Landlord Tenant Clear‑Out
A landlord required a rapid clearance of a furnished flat after tenants left unexpectedly. We removed furniture and boxed items for storage, providing an inventory and ensuring the property was ready for cleaning and re‑letting.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does same day removals in Mayfair cost?
Costs depend on the size of your move, access, distance and how many movers you need. For smaller flats or partial moves, we often work on an hourly rate with a minimum booking period to cover vehicle, fuel and labour. Larger properties or complex jobs may be priced as a fixed quote once we’ve understood the full scope. We’ll always explain the pricing clearly before you commit, so you know exactly what’s included and can compare it fairly with other options.
Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?
We do our best to accommodate same day requests, especially in Mayfair where we have regular vehicle presence. Availability depends on how busy the day is, the size of your move and how far our teams would need to travel. Contact us as early as you can – in the morning for same day moves is ideal. If we can’t take on the full job immediately, we may still be able to offer a partial move or an evening slot to get you moved safely the same day.
Are my belongings insured during a same day move?
Yes. Our same day removals are covered by the same goods in transit insurance and public liability cover as our planned moves. This protects your belongings while they are in our care and provides cover in the unlikely event of damage to property during the move. We’ll outline the key terms, limits and any exclusions when you book. For particularly high‑value or unusual items, we may recommend you notify your own insurer or arrange specific cover, and we’ll advise on the best approach.
What’s included in your same day removals service?
Our standard same day service includes a vehicle, trained movers, loading, transport, unloading and basic protection such as blankets and straps. We’ll place items into the rooms you specify and can undertake simple furniture disassembly and reassembly if agreed in advance. Packing is usually done by the customer on same day jobs, but we can sometimes supply materials or limited packing help subject to time and staffing. All inclusions will be clearly listed in your confirmation so you know exactly what to expect on the day.
What’s the difference between your service and a casual man‑and‑van?
While we operate a flexible man and van style service, we do so as a professional removals company rather than a casual operator. That means fully insured vehicles, trained staff, documented procedures and clear terms. We plan access, protect your belongings, and provide invoices and paperwork suitable for businesses and landlords. A casual man‑and‑van may be cheaper on paper, but often lacks proper insurance, experience and reliability, which becomes especially important when you’re moving at short notice in busy central London locations like Mayfair.
How far in advance should I book a same day removal?
For a true same day move, contact us as early as possible on the day – ideally first thing in the morning. This gives us the best chance to allocate the right vehicle and team, especially for larger properties. If you know even a day or two in advance that a move might become urgent, let us know so we can pencil you in and discuss options. For time‑critical business relocations, we can often arrange an early or late slot to work around your opening hours.
