Removal Van Fulham – Professional Local Service by Fulham Movers
Reliable Removal Van Hire in Fulham
At Fulham Movers, our removal van service is designed for people who want more than just a driver and a vehicle. You get a clean, well-equipped van plus a trained, professional removals team who handle your belongings with care from start to finish.
Whether you are moving a small flat, an entire house, a few bulky items or office equipment, we provide a tailored service across Fulham and the surrounding areas. We focus on punctuality, good communication, and treating your property and possessions as if they were our own.
Local Expertise in Fulham
Working in Fulham every day means we know the area inside out – from tight terraced streets and controlled parking zones to mansion blocks with tricky stairwells and lift restrictions. We plan each job with local conditions in mind so that loading, parking and access are managed smoothly.
We regularly work around Fulham Broadway, Parsons Green, Putney Bridge and the river-side developments, liaising with concierge teams and managing building rules so your move runs on time and with minimal disruption.
Who Our Removal Van Service Is For
Homeowners
Ideal for 1–3 bedroom flats and houses, downsizing moves and partial moves. We can handle everything from furniture and white goods to fragile items and artwork.
Renters
Perfect for flat moves, room-to-room moves and end-of-tenancy relocations. We’re used to staircases, lift bookings and tight time windows with inventory checks and cleaner appointments.
Landlords
We assist landlords with clearing properties between tenancies, moving furniture in or out, and transporting appliances. Our team can work directly with your agents or inventory clerks where needed.
Businesses
Our removal van crews support small and medium businesses with office moves, internal reshuffles, equipment moves and stock transfers. We work to business hours and can operate early mornings or evenings to minimise downtime.
Students
Students in Fulham, Hammersmith and nearby areas use our service for term-time moves, storage runs and shared-house relocations. We offer clear, upfront pricing and can combine pickups from multiple addresses where practical.

Our Step-by-Step Removal Van Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You can contact us by phone, email or online form. We will ask a few simple questions about your addresses, access, volume of items and preferred dates. Based on this, we provide a clear, no-obligation quote explaining the van size, number of movers and estimated time.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For larger moves or more complex jobs, we recommend a short video call or onsite survey. This lets us assess access, parking, staircases, lifts and any fragile or bulky items. A proper survey helps avoid surprises on the day and ensures the quote accurately reflects the work involved.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own boxes, or choose our packing service. If you prefer to pack yourself, we provide guidance on box sizes, labelling and protecting delicate items. On move day, our team brings removal blankets, straps and basic protection materials, and can disassemble and reassemble standard furniture where agreed.
4. Loading & Transport
On the day, our professional team arrives on time, walks through the property with you and plans the loading sequence. We protect key areas such as bannisters and door frames where needed, then load the van systematically, securing items with straps and blankets. Once loaded, we transport your belongings directly to the new address, using efficient routes across Fulham and beyond.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload items into the rooms you specify, placing furniture where you want it and reassembling agreed pieces. Before we leave, we check that everything listed has been delivered and positioned, and we encourage you to do a quick walkthrough so any small adjustments can be made while we’re still there.
Transparent Removal Van Pricing
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our removal van services are typically charged either as a fixed price for the job, or an hourly rate for smaller or more flexible moves.
- Pricing based on van size, number of movers and expected duration
- Travel time, fuel and basic protection materials included in the quote
- Any additional services (packing, materials, storage) itemised separately
Parking, congestion and toll charges are passed on at cost and always discussed in advance. There are no hidden extras; any potential additional charges are explained before you book, not on the day.
Why Choose a Professional Removal Van over DIY
Hiring a van and asking friends may seem cheaper, but it often takes longer, risks damage and can create unnecessary stress. Our trained teams move heavy and awkward items safely, plan loading to prevent damage, and understand how to protect both properties and belongings.
A professional removal van service means correct equipment, proper lifting techniques, and goods in transit insurance for your peace of mind. You avoid multiple trips, last‑minute issues with access or parking, and the physical strain of doing it all yourself.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Fulham Movers operates to recognised professional standards. We are fully insured with:
- Goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are in our care and on our vehicles
- Public liability cover for work in and around your property
Every crew member is trained in handling techniques, loading methods and customer care. We maintain our vehicles regularly, keep them clean and equipped with blankets, straps and trolleys to ensure safe, efficient work on every job.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every move with care, whether it’s a single item or a full flat. Doorways, bannisters and key walkways can be protected where necessary, and fragile items are wrapped and positioned carefully in the van. We encourage good packing, sensible box weights and clear labelling to reduce the chance of damage.
Where possible, we reuse strong cartons and protective materials, reduce unnecessary journeys through careful planning, and maintain our vehicles to run efficiently. This approach helps lower waste and supports a more sustainable way of working.
Real-World Uses of Our Removal Van Service
Moving House or Flat
From studio apartments to family homes, our vans and crews handle everything from everyday contents to bulky furniture. We are used to coordinating with building management, lift bookings and parking suspensions in Fulham and central London.
Office and Business Relocations
For businesses, we move desks, IT, files and office furniture with minimal downtime. We can work outside normal office hours and coordinate with your internal teams or IT provider to keep disruption to a minimum.
Urgent and Short-Notice Moves
Life does not always give much notice. Where our schedule allows, we offer same-day or next-day removal van services for urgent moves, last-minute tenancy changes, landlord requirements or unexpected changes of plan. We will always be honest about what is achievable in the time available.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a removal van in Fulham cost?
Costs depend on the size of van required, the number of movers, the volume of items, access at both properties and the distance travelled. Smaller local moves may be charged at an hourly rate, while larger home or office moves are usually quoted at a fixed price. Parking, congestion and toll charges are discussed up front and added at cost where applicable. The best way to get an accurate figure is to contact us with a brief description of your move so we can provide a clear, tailored quote.
Can you provide same-day or urgent removal van services?
Where our schedule allows, we do offer same-day or short-notice removal van bookings in Fulham and nearby areas. Availability depends on existing commitments and the size of the move, so the earlier you contact us, the better. For urgent jobs, we will quickly assess what you need moved, check access and timings, and advise honestly on what is realistic. We may suggest a partial move or multiple trips if time is very tight, ensuring your most important items are prioritised.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We carry goods in transit insurance that covers your belongings while they are in our vehicles and under our control, plus public liability cover for work at your property. This insurance is not a substitute for your own home or business policy, but it gives an additional layer of protection. We will explain any key terms, limits or exclusions before you book, and we encourage you to highlight any unusually high-value items so we can confirm cover and advise on the best way to protect them.
What is included in your removal van service?
Our service includes the removal van, fuel, a professional removals team, loading, safe transport and unloading at your new address. We provide basic protection such as blankets, straps and trolleys, and can handle straightforward furniture dismantling and reassembly by prior agreement. Packing, packing materials, storage and specialist services (for example, piano moves) are available as add-ons. Parking costs, congestion and tolls are not hidden; they are either included in a fixed quote or clearly itemised so you know exactly what you are paying for.
How is a professional removal van different from a casual man-and-van?
A casual man-and-van often provides only a driver with limited equipment and no formal insurance. With Fulham Movers, you get trained staff, a well-maintained van, proper protection materials and fully insured cover for your goods in transit. We plan access and loading, use correct lifting techniques, and provide written confirmations and receipts. The focus is on reliability, care and accountability. This is especially important when moving larger households, offices, fragile items or when you are working to tight deadlines and cannot afford things to go wrong.
How far in advance should I book a removal van?
For most moves, we recommend booking at least one to two weeks in advance, particularly if you are moving at the end of the month, on a Friday or during peak seasons. This gives us time to arrange parking, surveys and any additional services such as packing. That said, we regularly accommodate short-notice moves when our schedule allows. If your dates are not fixed, contacting us early means we can suggest quieter days or times which may offer more flexibility and, in some cases, better pricing.
