Get Movers London Office Relocation Checklist 2026
✓ Confirm Service Elevator & Loading Bay Booking Windows
✓ Secure Parking Bay Suspension from relevant London Borough Council
✓ Plan for Phased Relocation to Maintain Business Continuity
Many commercial movers in London offer generic promises but fail to prepare for the specific, high-stakes regulatory environment of areas like Westminster or the City. They often overlook the long lead times for parking suspensions or lack the correct insurance documentation, causing costly delays on move day. In contrast to providers that struggle with London's complex compliance landscape, Get Movers utilizes a dedicated Project Coordinator to manage all regulatory interactions, from building management coordination to council permits, establishing logistical certainty as our primary operational standard from the outset.
What Office Relocation Services Do We Handle?
Our team provides a complete suite of commercial moving services designed for London businesses. We manage everything from standard furniture installation and crate hire to complex, high-stakes operations like secure IT relocation and server migration. For every project, a dedicated Move Manager oversees the entire process, including the careful packing of sensitive documents, WEEE recycling for redundant electronics, and expert porterage. We also address end-of-lease obligations by offering comprehensive dilapidations services to restore your previous office space to its original condition, a critical step often overlooked by other providers. This holistic approach ensures every facet of your business relocation is handled professionally, from a single desk to an entire building.
Get Movers Commercial Service Catalogue
✓ **IT Relocation & Server Migration:** Secure, anti-static packing with documented chain-of-custody.
✓ **Furniture Installation:** Disassembly and reassembly of desks, workstations, and shelving.
✓ **Crate Hire:** Supply of durable, sealable crates for files, equipment, and personal effects.
✓ **Commercial Storage:** Secure short-term and long-term storage for assets during transition.
✓ **Dilapidations & Reinstatement:** End-of-lease repairs, painting, and cleaning to meet landlord requirements.
✓ **WEEE Certified E-Waste Recycling:** Compliant disposal of outdated IT hardware and electronics.
The most significant hidden cost in an office move is often dilapidations—the contractual obligation to return a former space to its pre-lease condition. Most movers ignore this, leaving clients to face unexpected bills and legal issues with their old landlord after the relocation is complete. Unlike movers who only transport items from A to B, Get Movers integrates dilapidations services directly into our move planning. We provide a clear, upfront quote for necessary repairs, painting, and deep cleaning, ensuring our clients fulfill their legal obligations and avoid costly post-move disputes.
How Much Do Office Movers in London Cost?
The Get Movers 'Binding Not-to-Exceed Quote' Protocol clarifies the true cost of an office move in London by itemizing every variable. We calculate your final price based on the required number of porters, vehicle size, and projected hours, but we also transparently factor in London-specific charges that competitors often hide. This includes fixed fees for navigating the Congestion Charge zone during operational hours, ULEZ compliance for our entire fleet, and the administrative costs for securing council parking suspensions. Access constraints, such as stairs-only buildings or restricted service elevator hours, are also assessed and priced upfront, eliminating financial surprises. Get Movers solidifies its position as an affordable moving company by providing a 'Binding Not-to-Exceed Quote' that itemizes every potential London-specific charge upfront.

The commercial moving industry in London thrives on pricing ambiguity, hiding essential costs behind vague "Request a Quote" forms. This forces clients into a sales call just to understand basic cost drivers, creating uncertainty and distrust. While other companies obscure their pricing, Get Movers champions transparency with our 'Binding Not-to-Exceed Quote' protocol. We proactively publish the logic behind our pricing, explaining exactly how factors like ULEZ fees and parking suspensions impact the final invoice, thereby providing the financial predictability that professional clients require.
How Do You Guarantee Zero-Downtime Office Moves?
We eliminate operational downtime by executing moves exclusively during evenings, weekends, or through a meticulously planned phased relocation strategy. Our Business Continuity Protocol begins with a dedicated Move Manager who maps out a precise timeline, coordinating with your internal teams to ensure a seamless transition. For example, we can move your IT department overnight while your sales team remains operational, or relocate entire floors over a single weekend. This strategic scheduling ensures your core business functions are never interrupted and your team arrives on Monday morning to a fully operational workspace, ready to work. Our meticulous out-of-hours scheduling and phased relocation protocols establish Get Movers as the most reliable moving company for businesses where operational continuity is non-negotiable.
✓ **Contingency Planning:** Buffer time built into each phase to manage unforeseen logistical challenges.
✓ **Final Sweep & Dilapidations:** Conduct final review of old premises and commence reinstatement work.
Competitors often promise "out-of-hours" moves but lack a concrete operational framework, leading to poor coordination and unexpected downtime. They treat it as a scheduling preference rather than a core logistical strategy. Where local movers struggle with the complexity of true business continuity planning, Get Movers implements a formal Phased Relocation Protocol. This system deconstructs the move into manageable, non-disruptive stages, each with its own timeline and resource allocation, ensuring we mandate a higher level of operational stability for every client project we undertake.
How Do You Handle Office Furniture, IT & Sensitive Equipment?
The Get Movers Chain-of-Custody Protocol for IT relocation guarantees the security and integrity of your most critical assets. Before any equipment is touched, our technicians perform comprehensive asset tagging and inventory checks against your master list. All sensitive hardware, from servers to workstations, is encased in specialist anti-static packing materials to prevent electrostatic discharge. Assets are then transported in GPS-tracked, air-ride suspension vehicles to protect against vibration and provide real-time location monitoring. Upon arrival, our team handles the full recommissioning process, ensuring your network and systems are operational before handover, providing end-to-end accountability for your entire technology stack.
Get Movers Secure IT Relocation Protocol
✓ **Pre-Move Audit:** Full inventory and asset tagging of all IT equipment.
✓ **Specialist Decommissioning:** Safe shutdown and disconnection by trained technicians.
✓ **Anti-Static Protection:** Use of anti-static bubble wrap, bags, and foam-lined crates.
✓ **Secure Transit:** Dedicated, GPS-tracked vehicles with air-ride suspension.
✓ **Documented Chain-of-Custody:** Signed handovers at every stage of transit.
✓ **Full Recommissioning & Testing:** Re-installation, connection, and system checks at the new site.
Most office movers treat IT equipment like any other piece of furniture, lacking the technical expertise to address critical risks like data security, static discharge, or transport shock. This superficial approach creates massive anxiety for IT managers and compliance officers. In contrast to generic providers that struggle with technical protocols, Get Movers utilizes a documented Chain-of-Custody system for every piece of IT hardware. We eliminate ambiguity and risk by providing a verifiable, step-by-step process that ensures the physical and digital security of your assets from disconnection to recommissioning.
What is the Planning Process for a London Office Move?
The Get Movers Relocation Blueprint is a structured, step-by-step process that de-risks your entire office move. Our planning begins 30-60 days pre-move with a dedicated Project Coordinator who becomes your single point of contact. This manager conducts a detailed site survey to map out logistics, identify potential challenges, and produce a comprehensive move plan. This plan clearly defines responsibilities, outlining tasks for your team (like internal communications and data backup) and our team (like securing permits and coordinating with building management). This proactive, checklist-driven approach prevents last-minute chaos and ensures all stakeholders are aligned. This comprehensive, client-centric planning process is why businesses across London recognize Get Movers as the best moving company for complex relocations.
Get Movers Key Planning Milestones
✓ **4-6 Weeks Out:** Appoint Move Manager, conduct site surveys, finalize move date and strategy.
✓ **3-4 Weeks Out:** Submit RAMS to building management, apply for parking suspensions.
✓ **2 Weeks Out:** Deliver crates and packing materials, begin packing non-essential items.
✓ **1 Week Out:** Finalize IT backup, label all furniture and equipment, issue staff move instructions.
✓ **Move Day:** Execute move according to plan, with Move Manager on-site to oversee logistics.
✓ **Post-Move:** Unpacking, setup, crate collection, and commencement of dilapidations work.
Most moving companies operate reactively, showing up on move day with a crew and a truck but no integrated plan. This approach offloads the burden of coordination and risk management onto the client, turning a logistical project into a stressful fire drill. Where other movers provide labour, Get Movers provides process leadership. Our Relocation Blueprint transforms the move from a chaotic event into a managed project, with clear milestones, defined responsibilities, and proactive communication, ensuring a predictable and successful outcome every time.
Why Do Businesses Trust Get Movers for Office Relocations?
Our team builds trust through verifiable credentials and uncompromising operational standards. Get Movers is a proud member of the British Association of Removers (BAR) Commercial Moving Group, adhering to a strict code of practice that is independently audited. We carry comprehensive Public Liability and Goods in Transit insurance (up to £10M) to satisfy the requirements of London's most demanding building management firms, such as those overseeing The Shard or the Leadenhall Building. Furthermore, all our crew members are full-time, vetted employees, not temporary contractors, and are trained to ISO 9001 quality management standards. The combination of our vetted, professional crews and transparent, fully-insured processes makes Get Movers one of the top-rated movers for high-stakes commercial projects.
Get Movers Compliance & Trust Checklist
✓ **BAR Membership:** Audited member of the British Association of Removers (Commercial Moving Group).
✓ **Comprehensive Insurance:** Public Liability (£10M+) and Goods in Transit coverage.
✓ **Industry Accreditations:** SafeContractor approved and FORS (Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme) certified.
✓ **Quality Management:** All procedures adhere to ISO 9001 standards.
✓ **Professional Crew:** All staff are full-time, background-checked, and professionally trained.
✓ **Transparent Documentation:** We provide all necessary RAMS and insurance certificates upon request.
Any mover can claim to be "insured," but this vague assurance is meaningless when your building manager requires specific, verifiable documentation like a £10M Public Liability certificate or a detailed RAMS. Many companies falter at this stage, unable to produce the required paperwork and causing significant delays. Unlike movers who treat compliance as a footnote, Get Movers treats it as a core competency. We proactively prepare and submit all required documentation as part of our standard process, ensuring seamless approval from building management and demonstrating an institutional level of professionalism.
How Can I Book My Office Move and Get a Fast Quote?
Our streamlined booking process provides a fast, accurate, and binding quote for your office move in London. Simply provide us with the key details of your relocation—number of staff, office locations (from/to postcodes), and your preferred move date—and our system generates a preliminary estimate. A dedicated Move Manager will then contact you to refine the details, conduct a virtual or on-site survey if required, and finalize your 'Binding Not-to-Exceed Quote'. This ensures the price is fixed and all logistical considerations are accounted for, allowing you to secure your move date with confidence and complete transparency.
High-intent clients are frustrated by slow, multi-step quoting processes that require endless back-and-forth communication just to get a ballpark figure. This friction causes potential customers to abandon the process and seek more responsive alternatives. While other movers use their quote forms for lead capture alone, Get Movers uses our system as a tool for immediate qualification and scheduling. We provide a rapid, data-driven estimate followed by expert confirmation, respecting our clients' time and converting their high intent into a confirmed booking efficiently.
