Our Step-by-Step Removal Van Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
You contact us with basic details: where you are moving from and to, property sizes, key dates, and any special items. We provide a clear, no-obligation estimate and explain the options available so you can choose the right level of service.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For anything more than a very small move, we carry out a survey – either a virtual video tour or an onsite visit. This lets us assess access, parking, staircases, lifts, and the volume of goods, so we can send the right size of removal van and the correct team on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
If you choose our packing service, we deliver materials in advance or arrive the day before to pack. If you are packing yourself, we provide guidance on boxing, labelling, and preparing appliances. We can also dismantle larger furniture as agreed.
4. Loading & Transport
On moving day, our trained team arrives on time, protects floors and doorways, and loads the removal van in a logical order. We use blankets, straps, and trolleys to keep everything safe in transit. Routes are planned in advance, taking account of Haringey traffic and any restrictions.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload items into the rooms you specify, reassemble any agreed furniture, and position bulky items so you can start using them straight away. We will not leave until you are happy that everything is in the right place.
Transparent Pricing for Removal Vans in Haringey
We believe in clear, upfront pricing. The cost of your removal van service depends on:
- Volume of goods and number of items
- Distance between properties
- Access and parking complexity
- Whether packing or dismantling services are required
- Day of the week and time of day
We normally quote a fixed price for the complete job, based on the survey, so you know exactly what you will pay. For smaller or very simple moves, we may offer a straightforward hourly rate with a minimum booking period.
Why Use a Professional Removal Van Service Instead of DIY
Hiring a removal van and doing it yourself can look cheaper, but there are hidden risks: injuries, damaged items, delays, and extra mileage or parking costs. With Haringey Movers, you get a professional crew who move people every day, understand how to protect belongings, and know how to handle awkward staircases and heavy items safely.
We provide the right equipment, plan the logistics, and carry goods in transit insurance and public liability cover. This level of protection is rarely offered by informal man-and-van operators, and never by DIY moves.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your possessions are important to you, so we treat them with the same care we would our own.
- Goods in transit insurance – covering your belongings while they are in our care, on the van, and during loading and unloading.
- Public liability cover – protection in the unlikely event of accidental damage to property or third parties.
- Trained moving teams – our staff are experienced, properly briefed, and follow safe handling and lifting practices.
We also maintain our vehicles properly and check our equipment regularly, reducing the risk of breakdowns or delays.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We focus on preventing damage rather than fixing it afterwards. Our teams use padded blankets, mattress and sofa covers, floor protection, and proper securing straps as standard. Fragile items are packed and positioned carefully, with clear labelling to ensure they are treated with extra care.
We are also mindful of our environmental impact. Where possible, we use reusable crates, collect and reuse boxes, reduce unnecessary journeys by planning routes efficiently, and keep our removal vans well maintained to minimise emissions.

Office and Commercial Relocations
We help small businesses move between offices or retail units, transporting desks, stock, and IT equipment safely. Moves can be scheduled outside normal hours to keep your business running.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a removal van in Haringey cost?
Costs vary depending on how much you are moving, the distance between properties, and the level of service you choose. Smaller local moves may be charged at an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, while larger house or office moves are usually priced as a fixed quote based on a survey. This ensures you know the total cost in advance. Contact us with basic details of your move and we will provide a clear, itemised quotation with no hidden extras.
Can you provide a removal van at short notice or on the same day?
We can often help with urgent or same-day moves, especially for smaller loads, but it depends on existing bookings and van availability. If you need a removal van at short notice, call us as early in the day as possible and we will tell you honestly what we can do. When we accept a short-notice booking, we still follow the same careful processes for loading, transport, and protection, so speed never means cutting corners.
Are my belongings insured during the move?
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are in our care, from the moment we start loading until the final item is unloaded at your new address. We also hold public liability cover in case of accidental damage to buildings or third parties. We will explain the key terms and any limitations when we quote, so you know exactly how your items are protected and what responsibilities you still have for very high-value items.
What is included in your removal van service?
Our standard service includes a suitably sized removal van, professional movers, protective equipment, loading, safe transport, and unloading into the rooms you choose. You can add optional services such as packing, supply of materials, dismantling and reassembling furniture, and basic disconnecting of appliances by prior agreement. We do not include hazardous items, pets, or very high-value items like jewellery. Your quotation will clearly list what is and is not included so there are no surprises.
How is your service different from a casual man-and-van?
While a casual man-and-van might be fine for a single sofa, our service is built for full, well-organised moves. We provide trained staff, proper planning, and insurance, along with the correct equipment to protect your belongings and property. We survey larger moves in advance, send the right size of removal van, and work to agreed timings. If anything goes wrong, you have a proper point of contact and a company that takes responsibility, which informal operators rarely offer.
How far in advance should I book a removal van?
For busy times of year and weekend moves, we recommend booking at least two to three weeks in advance to secure your preferred date. For midweek or smaller moves, we can often accommodate bookings with less notice, and occasionally at short notice. As soon as you have a likely moving date, it is sensible to get in touch so we can pencil you in, carry out a survey if needed, and agree the details in good time.
