What Our Same Day Removals Service Includes
Our same day removals service is designed for urgent, time-sensitive moves where delay simply isn’t an option. We focus on safe handling, clear communication and efficient planning, even when time is tight.
Typical same day removals in Bayswater include:
- Emergency flat and house moves
- Last-minute office and small business relocations
- Student moves into or out of halls and shared houses
- Short-notice landlord or letting agent requirements

We turn up with the right vehicle, protective materials and tools to carry out the move safely, even with minimal notice.
Local Bayswater Expertise
Operating day in, day out around Bayswater, Queensway, Notting Hill and Paddington means we know the area extremely well. We’re used to:
- Narrow streets, bus lanes and restricted parking
- Basement flats, mansion blocks and period conversions
- Lift access issues and stair-only properties
- Working around residents’ parking bays and loading restrictions
This local knowledge matters on a same day move. We can often advise on parking, suggest the best access points and liaise with building management when needed to keep everything moving smoothly.
Who Our Same Day Removals Service Is For
Homeowners
If your completion date has shifted, a chain has fallen into place at the last minute or you’ve been let down by another mover, we can often step in on the same day. We’ll prioritise the essentials, protect key items and keep your move as calm as possible.
Renters
Tenancy ending today? Key handover brought forward? We regularly help tenants in Bayswater with urgent moves, including small flats and house shares. We work efficiently to avoid extra rent days or penalty charges.
Landlords & Letting Agents
For urgent clearances, end-of-tenancy removals or short-notice check-in/out requirements, our team can remove furniture, effects and waste items that you have already sorted, ready for cleaning and re-letting.
Businesses
From small offices to retail units, we handle same day office removals, internal moves and urgent relocations. We can move desks, IT, stock and archive materials with minimal disruption to your trading.
Students
We frequently assist students moving into or out of halls and rented rooms around Bayswater and nearby universities. Same day student moves are ideal when term dates change or access times shift at short notice.
What We Can Move on the Same Day
Subject to access and vehicle availability, we can usually move:
- Household furniture – beds, sofas, wardrobes, tables and chairs
- White goods – fridges, washing machines, tumble dryers
- Boxes, suitcases and personal belongings
- IT equipment, small servers and office electronics
- Office furniture – desks, chairs, filing cabinets, shelving
- Artwork, mirrors and decorative items (with protection)
- Garden items, tools and outdoor furniture
Where time allows, we can also provide basic packing and furniture disassembly and reassembly as part of our service.
Items We Cannot Move
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, our same day removals service does not include:
- Hazardous materials (fuel, gas cylinders, solvents, chemicals)
- Illegal items or goods of unknown origin
- Large quantities of cash, jewellery or high-value collectibles
- Live animals or pets (including aquariums in use)
- Unpackaged food or perishable items in poor condition
- Industrial machinery beyond normal commercial items
If you’re unsure whether something can be moved, we’ll advise you honestly when you enquire.
Our Same Day Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quick Quote
Call us as early as possible. We’ll ask a few key questions about your current property, destination, access, approximate volume and timings. Wherever we can, we give an immediate ballpark cost and confirm whether a same day slot is available.
2. Rapid Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For most same day moves, we’ll complete a fast virtual survey using photos, video or a call. For larger properties, we may send someone locally to assess access and volume. This helps us send the right size vehicle, the right number of movers and any specialist equipment needed.
3. Packing & Preparation
On arrival, we protect floors where practical and start by handling the heaviest and most fragile items. Depending on the service agreed, we can:
- Provide boxes and packing materials
- Wrap and protect furniture with blankets and covers
- Disassemble basic furniture such as beds and wardrobes
- Label items by room to simplify unloading
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained team loads your belongings systematically, securing items to minimise movement in transit. We plan routes that consider Bayswater’s traffic, loading restrictions and any time constraints at each property. Your goods are covered by our goods in transit insurance during the journey.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new address, we unload into the rooms you specify, placing bulky items like beds, wardrobes and sofas exactly where you want them. If agreed in advance, we can reassemble furniture and help with basic positioning so you can get settled more quickly.
Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals
Same day removals in Bayswater are priced fairly, with clear explanations of what’s included. Our pricing typically considers:
- Volume of goods and size of vehicle required
- Number of movers needed for safe handling
- Distance between properties
- Access challenges, parking and stairs
- Any packing or dismantling services requested
- Urgency and time of day (evening/late night surcharges may apply)
We provide a written quote before work begins, so you know exactly what you are paying for. There are no hidden extras – any potential additional charges (for example, extended waiting time) are explained upfront.
Why Choose Professional Same Day Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van
Moving at short notice is stressful enough without worrying about reliability and damage. Using a professional, fully insured removals company gives you:
- Reliability – confirmed booking, punctual arrival and proper planning
- Trained teams – correct lifting techniques and handling of fragile items
- Appropriate vehicles with securing points and protective equipment
- Formal goods in transit insurance if anything goes wrong
- Public liability cover for working in shared buildings and communal areas
- Clear communication and a point of contact throughout the move
A casual man-and-van may appear cheaper on paper, but for urgent, high-pressure moves where damage, delay or non-attendance would cause serious problems, a professional service is usually far better value.
Insurance & Professional Standards
Bayswater Movers operates to recognised professional standards, giving you peace of mind even on last-minute moves:
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your belongings while they are in our vehicles, subject to terms and declared values
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to third-party property such as communal areas
- Trained moving teams – all staff are instructed in safe lifting, loading, securing and handling fragile items
- Use of appropriate protective materials – blankets, straps, covers and tools
We are happy to discuss policy limits and any specific high-value items before the move so you can decide if you require additional cover.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Even on a same day job, we don’t cut corners on care:
- We use padded blankets, mattress and sofa covers where appropriate
- We protect doorways and bannisters wherever practical
- We secure loads carefully to reduce movement in transit
We also work with sustainability in mind:
- Reusing strong cartons and packing materials where hygiene allows
- Encouraging customers to recycle or donate unwanted items
- Planning routes efficiently to reduce unnecessary mileage
Real-World Same Day Removals Use Cases
Moving House in a Hurry
Perhaps your exchange and completion dates changed at the last moment, or a previous mover cancelled. We can often accommodate same day house and flat moves within Bayswater and across London, focusing on essential items first if time is limited.
Urgent Office Relocation
When a lease ends suddenly or you need to vacate premises quickly, our same day office removals service helps you relocate staff, equipment and stock with minimal downtime. We can work early mornings, evenings or weekends by arrangement.
Last-Minute Student and Short-Let Moves
Students and short-let tenants often have tight, fixed move-out dates. If plans change, we can be there at short notice to move you quickly and efficiently, helping you avoid storage charges or additional rent days.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do same day removals in Bayswater cost?
Costs depend on the size of your move, distance between properties, access and how many movers are required. Same day moves are usually priced slightly higher than standard bookings because of the short notice and scheduling pressure. For a small flat or student move within Bayswater, prices might start from a few hundred pounds, rising for larger homes or complex access. We always provide a clear, itemised quote before starting, so you know exactly what is included and can compare it fairly with other options.
Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?
Availability depends on our schedule and vehicle allocation on the day. During busy periods, such as weekends and month-end, same day slots can fill quickly. However, because we’re local to Bayswater and operate multiple vehicles, we can often find a solution, whether that’s a full same day move or a partial move focusing on essentials. The earlier in the day you call, the better the chance of securing a suitable time. We’ll always be honest about what is realistic and never overpromise.
What insurance coverage do you provide?
All moves are covered by our standard goods in transit insurance, which protects your belongings while they are being transported in our vehicles, subject to policy terms and value limits. We also carry public liability insurance, covering accidental damage to third-party property such as communal areas or neighbouring flats. Before your move, we can explain our cover in plain language and highlight any exclusions. If you have unusually high-value items, you may wish to arrange additional cover or provide a detailed inventory so we can advise appropriately.
What’s included in a same day removals service?
Our same day service normally includes the vehicle, fuel, a trained removals team, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. Basic protection with blankets and covers is also included. Depending on what we agree in advance, we can add services such as packing, supplying materials, dismantling and reassembling furniture or moving items into storage. We’ll confirm exactly what’s included in writing before the job starts, so you’re clear on responsibilities around packing, parking arrangements and access at both ends of the move.
How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?
A professional removals company offers more than just a vehicle and a driver. You get a trained team, insured handling, proper protective equipment and structured planning. This is especially important for same day moves, where there is no margin for error. Casual man-and-van services may not carry adequate insurance, may use unsuitable vehicles and may not be familiar with complex access or building rules. While they can be suitable for very small, low-risk jobs, most households and businesses in Bayswater prefer the added security and reliability of a professional removals firm.
How far in advance should I book a same day move?
Same day by definition is short notice, but the more notice you can give, the better. Ideally, contact us first thing in the morning or as soon as you know you need to move. This gives us the best chance to allocate the right vehicle and team and to plan around Bayswater’s traffic and parking restrictions. If you suspect an urgent move might be needed, it’s worth calling earlier to discuss options, even if you can’t confirm straight away; we can often pencil you in and then firm up details when your plans are final.
