How it works
Three steps and one project price
Free site survey at both addresses
A move manager walks your Stepney 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 Tower Hamlets buildings and managing agents ask for.
Out-of-hours switchover, live for the first shift
Single stair to the kerb, van parked legally, everything hand-carried and labelled. 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 Stepney businesses book us and re-book us
Priced per project, not per hour
One fixed figure for your Stepney 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 E1 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 Stepney 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: 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 Tower Hamlets bay hours and any suspension for E1 are checked at survey and quoted before you sign, never billed afterwards.
- The Congestion Charge and ULEZ are inside the project price for every vehicle we send.
- 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 Stepney what it actually involves
Stepney sits in Tower Hamlets, a borough with 18,760 business units and 316,000 people at work. Locally the buyer is usually owners, practice managers and office administrators buying two or three visits a week on a short, plain-english agreement. 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.
Small suites above the Stepney high street
One street door, one stair and nowhere obvious for a van is the reality for most Stepney 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.

Questions
Office removals in Stepney answered
A Stepney office move is priced per project, not per hour on E1 jobs. 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 around Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City), with Tower Hamlets parking rules in play. Above 100 desks we phase the relocation and price from £55 a desk in Stepney. 50 each per week and IT disconnect and reconnect is £28 a workstation on this side of Tower Hamlets. Every figure follows a free survey of both addresses for Stepney (E1) addresses.
That is how most Stepney moves run. We load after close of business on Friday, transport and build over Saturday on E1 jobs, with this being London Borough of Tower Hamlets territory — and 51% social-rented stock nearby, and use Sunday for IT reconnection, snagging and a walk-round with your office manager. Desks are live for the first shift on Monday on the Stepney rounds. The weekend uplift is 18% and is quoted with the project price up front across E1.
Yes — it is part of the move plan, not something we leave with you on E1 jobs. 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 around Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City) — and 22% of Stepney homes being houses, with 6,862 households on this patch. 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 across E1 — and 23% owner-occupation locally, with 78% of homes here being flats, 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 in Stepney — and St Dunstan's Church, Stepney a few streets away, with 78% of homes here being flats. Server and comms room relocations are quoted separately from £480 and run with your IT provider present on Tower Hamlets bookings, with Tower Hamlets parking rules in play. What we do not do is touch structured cabling or patching on the streets near St Dunstan's Church, Stepney, with a median age of 30 in this neighbourhood, 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 in this 78% flats neighbourhood, with 22% of Stepney homes being houses — and this being London Borough of Tower Hamlets territory, and a named move manager with a mobile number. In Tower Hamlets most buildings want that pack five working days before the switchover around Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City), with St Dunstan's Church, Stepney a few streets away, so we issue it at the point of booking.
Yes. 50 per crate per week, with labels and a seat-numbered floor plan across E1. Empty crates are collected within five working days of the move — keep them longer and it is the same weekly rate, with 26% of E1 homes being privately rented, with no penalty on the streets near St Dunstan's Church, Stepney.
We clear them on the same visit as a licensed waste carrier: £180 per load on the streets near St Dunstan's Church, Stepney — and 23% owner-occupation locally, with St Dunstan's Church, Stepney a few streets away, 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 across E1 — and Tower Hamlets parking rules in play, with 26% of E1 homes being privately rented, and we can supply a photographic record for a dilapidations file if your lease requires one.
Yes — every street in E1 and all of Tower Hamlets, a borough with 18,760 business units on this side of Tower Hamlets, with 23% owner-occupation locally. Most offices here are sme suites above the high street across E1, with this being a short walk from Stepney Green (District, Hammersmith & City), which typically move inside a single evening.
