Prices

What office & commercial removals in St John's Wood costs

Our rates are the same in St John's Wood as everywhere else we work, and they are never changed by postcode.

Office and commercial moves run as a project — one coordinator, our own crew, and a plan that works backwards from the hour you need to be trading again.

Typical labour for an office move

Luton Box Van
3 movers, about 3 hours loading and unloading
£390
5.5 Tonne Lorry
3 movers, about 4 hours loading and unloading
£640
7.5 Tonne Lorry
4 movers, about 5 hours loading and unloading
£1,050

Loading and unloading labour only. Driving time, mileage between your two addresses, stairs (£10 per person, per flight, per hour at that address) and desk dismantling are added in your written quote, with larger sites run as several loads.

Other charges that can apply

  • Stairs

    £10 per person, per flight, per hour

    From the first floor up, for the hours at that address. A floor is 2 flights, so a first floor with a two-person crew adds £40 an hour there. A working lift that takes furniture removes the charge.

    Work out your stairs
  • Waiting time

    £40 per person, per hour

    For example if the keys are released late on completion day: £80 an hour for a two-person crew.

  • Timing

    +15% evenings

    +20% Sundays and bank holidays

    Your quote says which applies to your date before you book.

  • Congestion Charge

    TfL's daily charge inside the zone only

    Added as its own line if either address is inside central London's Congestion Charge zone during charging hours. Our vans meet the ULEZ standard, so there is no ULEZ charge.

    TfL: Congestion Charge zone and hours

The minimum booking is 2 hours for the Small Transit (SWB) and Transit LWB, and 3 hours for the Luton Box Van, 5.5 Tonne Lorry and 7.5 Tonne Lorry.

To get an itemised quote, send us both addresses, the floor and lift situation at each, where the van can stop, and what the job involves. Your quote arrives in writing within 24 hours.

Office & Commercial Removals by AFS Removals

The service

Office & Commercial Removals with AFS

A commercial move is judged on one thing: how long you are not working. That makes sequencing the whole job — what gets packed last, what gets unloaded first, and what has to be live again by Monday morning.

Goods in Transit and Public Liability cover are in place for every commercial job, and one coordinator owns the move end to end, from the first conversation to the last desk going back together.

Before moving day

Before moving day in St John's Wood

Three things that decide how a move runs at any address. Tell us about them when you ask for a quote.

  1. 1

    Parking at both addresses

    Is there somewhere a van can legally stop close to the door? If a bay needs suspending, each council sets its own notice and fee, from a few working days to three weeks, so check yours before you fix the date.

  2. 2

    Floors, stairs and lifts

    Which floor, and does a lift take furniture? Stairs are charged by the flight from the first floor up, and a working lift removes the charge.

  3. 3

    The carry to the door

    A long walk from the van, a narrow gate or a tight stairwell changes the time a job takes. Tell us, and it is planned rather than found.

Stairs and lifts

Floors, lifts and the carry from the van

Tell us which floor each address is on and whether a lift takes furniture. Stairs are charged by the flight from the first floor up, and a working lift removes the charge. A long walk from the van, a narrow gate or a tight stairwell also changes the time a job takes.

Tap your floor on each building, or drag the marker beside it.

Ground floor, or a working lift, at both addresses.

£10 per person, per flight, per hour at each address; a floor is 2 flights. This is the stair charge only — the hourly rate for the vehicle and crew, and the per-mile charge, are separate. Your written quote confirms the hours.

From quote to the day

How office & commercial removals in St John's Wood works

Five steps, one coordinator, and a plan agreed before the van arrives.

  1. 1

    Tell us about your move

    Use the quote form, call or WhatsApp. Add photos if it helps — the more we know, the more accurate the price.

  2. 2

    Get your written quote

    An itemised quote within 24 hours, built from our published rates: vehicle, crew, hours and extras, line by line.

  3. 3

    Your coordinator takes over

    Once you book, one named coordinator confirms the date, vehicle and crew, and stays your contact until the last box is in.

  4. 4

    Packed and loaded

    Floors and doorways protected, furniture dismantled and blanket-wrapped, and the van loaded in the order you want it unloaded.

  5. 5

    Unloaded and rebuilt

    Boxes go to the rooms you labelled, beds go back together, and the crew stays until you have walked the house.

Siobhan Harper-NunesVerified Google review
“Thoughtful, professional & hard working. They did not stop! I had 3 offices to clear & 3 hours to do it in. I was having a meltdown and they were patient and accommodating. Job done. Happy move.”
Oba FrankVerified Google review
“We could not recommend AFS Removals highly enough. Their professionalism, organisation, and attention to detail throughout the entire moving process were exceptional. Every member of the team was friendly, reliable, and committed.”
Simon NewburyVerified Google review
“We had originally booked a local firm for our move, but due to a last minute exchange and insane demand for movers, none were available. AFS had a 3-man crew available at short notice who were brilliant and hardworking.”

Questions

Office & Commercial Removals in St John's Wood: common questions

Do you cover all of St John's Wood?
Yes. We cover all of St John's Wood and the rest of Greater London, and we move people to and from anywhere in the UK. A long-distance move is priced from the same rate card as a local one — it just has more miles on it.
What are your prices for office & commercial removals in St John's Wood?
The same as everywhere we work — our rates do not change by postcode. For example, 7.5 tonne lorry: £1,050 (4 movers, about 5 hours loading and unloading). Loading and unloading labour only. Driving time, mileage between your two addresses, stairs (£10 per person, per flight, per hour at that address) and desk dismantling are added in your written quote, with larger sites run as several loads. Your itemised written quote arrives within 24 hours.
How far is St John's Wood from your nearest office?
About 7 miles from our London office, as the crow flies. The time in your quote runs from the crew's arrival at your address, and the mileage is worked out from the road distance between your two addresses.
What size of business do you move?
Anything from a single serviced office to a multi-floor site. The vehicle and crew are scaled to the job — up to a 7.5 tonne lorry with a four-person crew.
Can you move us over a weekend?
Yes. The crew and vehicle are booked for the day you need, and a weekend move is planned the same way as a weekday one. Sunday and bank holiday starts carry a published surcharge, which your quote shows as its own line.
Do you dismantle desks and office furniture?
Yes. Dismantling and reassembly is charged per item at a published rate, from £40 for standard desks and office furniture, subject to a £90 minimum booking, rather than folded into the hourly rate.
