We run commercial moves throughout Kensington and Chelsea, central London: 11 areas from SW3 to W14. 15,150 business units and around 140,000 people working here, which means desk moves, IT relocation and weekend switchovers are routine rather than exceptional. Fixed project pricing from £650, surveyed before it is quoted.
Kensington and Chelsea is Central London, served by SW3, SW5, SW7, SW10, W8, W10, W11, W14, with 15,150 business units and roughly 140,000 people working in the borough — retail and wholesale being the largest employer. The densest borough in the country — white stucco crescents, museum quarter and the Portobello and World's End ends. For a commercial move the borough's own rules decide the plan more than mileage does: tight loading windows, red routes and camera-enforced streets, narrow service stairs and small lifts, and estates that run their own contractor rules. Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea sets the bay regime, and we book both ends before your switchover window.

Access in Kensington and Chelsea Period buildings and red routes in Kensington and Chelsea
A Georgian staircase, a small passenger lift and a camera-enforced kerb decide the plan. We survey the carry route first, fit edge and banister protection, break the move into smaller vehicle loads timed to the loading window, and keep original joinery and listed features untouched.

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.

Office removals in Kensington and Chelsea — questions Frequently asked
- How much do office removals cost in Kensington and Chelsea?
- Office moves in Kensington and Chelsea are priced per project after a free survey: £650 for a micro office, £2,900 for 50 desks, from £55 a desk for phased relocations above 100. Part of Kensington and Chelsea sits inside the Congestion Charge zone, and both that and ULEZ are inside the project price.
- How far ahead should we book an office move in Kensington and Chelsea?
- 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 Kensington and Chelsea and can often survey within 48 hours.
- Which Kensington and Chelsea areas do you cover?
- All 11 of them, across SW3, SW5, SW7, SW10, W8, W10, W11, W14, plus neighbouring westminster, hammersmith and fulham, brent. 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.
- Can you move us out of hours so the business keeps trading?
- Yes, and most Kensington and Chelsea 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.
- Do you provide RAMS, insurance and waste documentation?
- Every Kensington and Chelsea 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. Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea building control and most managing agents in the borough ask for that pack, so it is issued at booking rather than on request.
- How many businesses do you move in Kensington and Chelsea?
- The borough has around 15,150 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. Some of the tightest CPZs in London, mews entrances under 2.1m and communal-stair-only access in many mansion blocks.
- Can you store furniture between the two leases?
- 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.
- Do you handle the clearance of old furniture as well?
- 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.
