How it works
Three steps and one project price
Free site survey at both addresses
A move manager walks your Canning Town 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 London Borough of Newham buildings and managing agents ask for.
Out-of-hours switchover, live for the first shift
Shared lift and on-site bay booked, crates trolleyed floor to floor. 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 Canning Town businesses book us and re-book us
Priced per project, not per hour
One fixed figure for your Canning Town 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 E16 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 Canning Town 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.
- Access at both ends drives the figure more than distance: on-site parking or a loading bay in most buildings, a shared lift and a simple key or fob handover — logistics are rarely the constraint here.
- London Borough of Newham bay hours and any suspension for E16 are checked at survey and quoted before you sign, never billed afterwards.
- ULEZ is inside the project price for every vehicle we send, and there is no Congestion Charge here.
- Timing: an out-of-hours or weekend switchover carries an 18% uplift and almost always costs less than the trading day it saves.

About the place
Relocating an office in Canning Town what it actually involves
Around Bow Creek Ecology Park, Canning Town is rebuilt interchange district of new blocks beside the lea mouth and bow creek. The offices here are mid-rise multi-let offices over town-centre retail, council and public-sector floors, mid-market single-tenant suites and a growing serviced office presence. which is why a commercial relocation in E16 is planned around access windows rather than distance. On-site parking or a loading bay in most buildings, a shared lift and a simple key or fob handover — logistics are rarely the constraint here.
Multi-let town centre floors in Canning Town
Most Canning Town offices share a lift with other tenants and a bay with the retail below, so the whole job turns on booking both properly. We agree the window with building management, run trolleys on protected routes, and stage crates so no corridor is ever blocked during business hours.

Questions
Office removals in Canning Town answered
A Canning Town office move is priced per project, not per hour. Up to 10 desks starts at £650 plus VAT, 11–25 desks at £1,450, 26–50 desks at £2,900 and a full floor of 51–100 desks at £5,400. Above 100 desks we phase the relocation and price from £55 a desk. Crates are £3.50 each per week and IT disconnect and reconnect is £28 a workstation. Every figure follows a free survey of both addresses.
That is how most Canning Town moves run. We load after close of business on Friday, transport and build over Saturday, and use Sunday for IT reconnection, snagging and a walk-round with your office manager. Desks are live for the first shift on Monday. The weekend uplift is 18% and is quoted with the project price up front.
Yes — it is part of the move plan, not something we leave with you. On-site parking or a loading bay in most buildings, a shared lift and a simple key or fob handover — logistics are rarely the constraint here. We take the booking, issue the RAMS your building or managing agent asks for, fit lift, floor and door-frame protection before the first crate travels, and sign the crew in and out of the building.
We disconnect, bag and label every workstation by seat number — screens, docks, cables and peripherals — and reconnect them at the destination position so staff sit down to a working desk. Server and comms room relocations are quoted separately from £480 and run with your IT provider present. What we do not do is touch structured cabling or patching, which stays with your IT contractor.
A method statement and risk assessment specific to your two addresses, public liability and goods-in-transit insurance certificates, waste carrier registration for anything we remove, and a named move manager with a mobile number. In Newham most buildings want that pack five working days before the switchover, so we issue it at the point of booking.
Yes. Secure, stackable crates and IT bags are delivered to your E16 office a week before the move at £3.50 per crate per week, with labels and a seat-numbered floor plan. Empty crates are collected within five working days of the move — keep them longer and it is the same weekly rate, with no penalty.
We clear them on the same visit as a licensed waste carrier: £180 per load, with WEEE handled through a permitted route and a waste transfer note issued. Anything reusable is offered to a reuse partner before it is recycled, and we can supply a photographic record for a dilapidations file if your lease requires one.
Yes — every street in E16 and all of Newham, a borough with 14,895 business units. Canning Town town centre is a genuine commercial district, so we hold weekend crews for it year round.
