How it works
Three steps and one project price
Free site survey at both addresses
A move manager walks your City of London floor and the destination, counts desks and IT positions, checks lifts, bays and building rules, and agrees the switchover window with your facilities contact.
Fixed project price, move plan and RAMS
One figure for the purchase order, a seat-numbered floor plan, a crate delivery date, and the method statement, risk assessment and insurance certificates City of London Corporation buildings and managing agents ask for.
Out-of-hours switchover, live for the first shift
Goods lift booked, loading bay reserved, contractor passes issued. Crates and IT move after close of business, desks are rebuilt and reconnected overnight or across the weekend, and empty crates are collected within five working days.
Why us
Why City of London businesses book us and re-book us
Priced per project, not per hour
One fixed figure for your City of London move, agreed after a survey of both addresses. A slow lift or a bigger crate count is our risk to carry, not a line added to your invoice.
No lost trading day
Evening switchovers for suites up to 25 desks and Friday-to-Sunday programmes for whole floors, so EC1, EC2, EC3, EC4 staff arrive on Monday to a working position rather than a stack of boxes.
RAMS, insurance and permits handled
Method statement and risk assessment written for your two addresses, public liability and goods-in-transit certificates, waste carrier registration and the lift and bay bookings — issued at booking, not chased on the day.
IT crated by seat, reconnected by us
Screens, docks, cables and peripherals bagged and labelled to the destination seat number, then reconnected at £28 a workstation. Server and comms rooms move out of hours with your IT provider on site.
One named move manager
The person who surveyed your City of London office runs the switchover and answers their mobile on the night. No handover to a call centre between quote and move day.
Old furniture cleared, properly documented
Redundant desking, pedestals and IT removed on the same visit as a licensed waste carrier at £180 a load, WEEE routed correctly, and a waste transfer note for your dilapidations file.

Prices exclude VAT and are quoted per project, not per hour — a business buyer needs one figure to put on a purchase order. Every quote follows a free site survey of both addresses and includes the move plan, crate delivery and collection, protection of lifts, floors and door frames, labelling, and the RAMS and insurance pack your building manager will ask for. Out-of-hours, weekend and bank-holiday switchovers are priced at the time of booking, never added afterwards.
- Bay hours and any suspension are agreed with City of London Corporation at survey and quoted up front.
- Congestion Charge and ULEZ are inside the project price for every vehicle.
- Access here: Congestion Charge and ULEZ, ring-of-steel camera controls, almost no free kerb — loading bays must be booked around office hours.
- Weekend and bank-holiday switchovers carry an 18% uplift, priced with the project, never after it.

About the place
Relocating an office in City of London what it actually involves
City of London is Central London, served by EC1, EC2, EC3, EC4, with 25,555 business units and roughly 614,000 people working in the borough — finance and insurance being the largest employer. The Square Mile — banking towers, medieval lanes and a resident population dwarfed by 500,000 weekday workers. For a commercial move the borough's own rules decide the plan more than mileage does: security passes and a permit-to-work, goods lift booked with building management, contractor induction before the first shift and a logged sign-in and sign-out on every visit. City of London Corporation sets the bay regime, and we book both ends before your switchover window.
Lift slots and bay bookings in City of London
Buildings here run the move as much as we do. We take the goods lift booking, the loading bay slot, the contractor induction and the permit-to-work out of your hands, put floor and lift protection down before the first crate travels, and sign in and out of the building on every visit so your managing agent has the audit trail.
Questions
Office removals in City of London answered
From £650 plus VAT for up to 10 desks, £1,450 for 11–25, £2,900 for 26–50 and £5,400 for a full floor. Part of City of London sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, and both that and ULEZ are inside the project price.
Two to three weeks is comfortable: a week for the survey, quote and RAMS to clear your managing agent, and a week for crate delivery and staff packing. Quarter-ends and the last weekend of the month go first. If a lease date has moved, tell us — we hold weekend capacity across City of London and can often survey within 48 hours.
All 10 of them, across EC1, EC2, EC3, EC4, plus neighbouring islington, tower hamlets, southwark. Every area has its own page with the local building stock, access reality and buyer type, and the same desk-banded pricing applies wherever in the borough you are moving.
Yes, and most City of London moves are booked that way. Evenings suit a suite of up to 25 desks; anything larger is usually a Friday-night-to-Sunday switchover. The uplift is 18%, agreed in writing before the booking, and it buys you a floor that is live for the first shift back.
Every City of London booking comes with a method statement and risk assessment for your two specific addresses, public liability and goods-in-transit certificates, and waste carrier registration with a transfer note for anything removed. City of London Corporation building control and most managing agents in the borough ask for that pack, so it is issued at booking rather than on request.
The borough has around 25,555 business units, most of them under ten people, and we work across the whole spread — from single-suite practices above the high street to multi-floor tenants in the borough's main commercial buildings. Congestion Charge and ULEZ, ring-of-steel camera controls, almost no free kerb — loading bays must be booked around office hours.
Yes. Business storage is £22 per pallet per week in a sealed, inventoried bay, which covers the common gap where a new floor is not ready. You get an itemised inventory, and we redeliver on a date you set with no minimum term beyond the first week.
On the same visit. Old desking, pedestals, chairs and IT are removed at £180 per load as a licensed waste carrier, with WEEE routed properly and a transfer note issued for your file. It is almost always cheaper than a separate clearance booking after the keys go back.
