Office removal areas in Lewisham 12 business districts
We run commercial moves throughout Lewisham, south London: 12 areas from SE4 to SE26. 10,820 business units and around 72,000 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.
Lewisham is South London, served by SE4, SE6, SE8, SE12, SE13, SE14, SE23, SE26, with 10,820 business units and roughly 72,000 people working in the borough — health and social care being the largest employer. Deptford's market and Victorian New Cross, hill villages at Blackheath and Forest Hill, and Catford's high street. For a commercial move the borough's own rules decide the plan more than mileage does: a single street door with your own key, no concierge and no goods lift — the practical issues are stairs, bin day and where the van sits for twenty minutes. London Borough of Lewisham sets the bay regime, and we book both ends before your switchover window.
Access in Lewisham Small suites above the Lewisham high street
One street door, one stair and nowhere obvious for a van is the reality for most Lewisham practices and studios. We check the bay hours, work in shorter runs so the stair is never overloaded, and get you trading again the next morning — usually inside a single evening.

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 Lewisham — questions Frequently asked
- How much do office removals cost in Lewisham?
- A Lewisham office relocation starts at £650 and most local jobs land between £1,400 and £3,000 once crates and IT are included. Lewisham is outside the Congestion Charge zone, and ULEZ is inside the project price, alongside any London Borough of Lewisham bay fee.
- How far ahead should we book an office move in Lewisham?
- 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 Lewisham and can often survey within 48 hours.
- Which Lewisham areas do you cover?
- All 12 of them, across SE4, SE6, SE8, SE12, SE13, SE14, SE23, SE26, plus neighbouring greenwich, southwark, bromley. 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 Lewisham 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 Lewisham 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. London Borough of Lewisham 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 Lewisham?
- The borough has around 10,820 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. Steep hills at Honor Oak and Forest Hill, narrow terraced streets and expanding CPZs across SE4 and SE14.
- 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.
