Our Step-by-Step Packing and Moving Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Contact Man and Van Hammersmith by phone or online and tell us about your property, number of rooms and any special items. We provide a clear, no-obligation quote outlining packing, boxes and any associated moving services, so you know exactly what to expect.
2. Survey – Virtual or Onsite
We carry out a professional survey, either via video call or in person in Hammersmith. This allows us to assess access, volumes, fragile items and any dismantling work needed. A proper survey ensures we bring the right number of packers, the correct materials and the right size vehicle on the day.
3. Packing & Preparation
On the agreed date, our trained team arrives with all materials. We protect floors where necessary, then carefully wrap and pack room by room. Delicate items get extra padding and double-walled boxes. Furniture is wrapped in protective covers, and we dismantle pieces like beds or wardrobes when needed. Every box is labelled with room and contents for an easier unpacking process.
4. Loading & Transport
Once packed, your items are loaded securely into our vehicles, using ties, blankets and stacking techniques that help prevent movement and damage. Our drivers know Hammersmith and surrounding areas well, choosing sensible routes and planning for parking and access restrictions in advance.
5. Unloading & Placement
At your new property, we unload in an organised way, placing boxes in the correct rooms as labelled. If you have booked an unpacking service, we can also unbox, lay items out on surfaces and remove used packing materials, leaving you with a tidy, ready-to-settle-in space.
Transparent Pricing for Packing and Boxes in Hammersmith
We believe in clear, straightforward pricing. Our quotes are based on:
- The volume of items to be packed (usually by property size or a detailed inventory)
- The level of service – full packing, fragile-only packing or part packing
- Number of packers required and length of time on site
- Quantity and type of boxes and materials supplied
- Any additional services – dismantling, reassembly, unpacking or storage
Your written quote will clearly state what is included, any optional extras and how any overtime would be charged. There are no hidden fees – if the scope changes, we discuss it with you first.
Why Choose Professional Packing Over DIY
Many people start by collecting second-hand boxes and packing themselves, only to find it takes far longer than expected and often leads to breakages. Our professional packers use quality materials and proven methods to protect your belongings, and they work efficiently because they do this day in, day out.
With a professional packing service you gain:
- Time saved in the weeks leading up to your move
- Fewer breakages and claims thanks to trained handling
- Better organisation with clear labelling and room-by-room packing
- Less physical strain and stress on move day
Compared with a casual man-and-van, you benefit from fully insured, trained teams, proper planning and accountability from an established local company.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Man and Van Hammersmith operates to high professional standards for every packing and moving job.
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your belongings while they are being transported, subject to terms and conditions explained in your quote.
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to property or third parties while we are working on site.
- Trained moving teams – our staff receive regular training in handling techniques, packing methods and safe lifting practices.
Full insurance details and limits are provided in writing so you know exactly how your items are protected.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
We treat every item as if it were our own. Fragile and high-value belongings receive extra protection with bubble wrap, paper and specialist cartons. Furniture is covered to prevent scuffs and tears, and we plan loading carefully to minimise movement in transit.
Where possible, we use recycled and recyclable materials and encourage box re-use. We can collect used cartons after your move for re-use or responsible recycling, helping to reduce waste while still keeping your goods safe.
Real-World Use Cases in Hammersmith
Moving House
Families and individuals across Hammersmith rely on our full packing and boxes service to handle entire properties within tight completion deadlines. We often pack one day and move the next, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Office Relocation
Local businesses benefit from structured packing of IT, files and furniture, clearly coded by department or floor. This allows quick setup in the new office and minimises downtime.
Urgent and Short-Notice Moves
When a move comes up sooner than expected – a tenancy ending early, a rapid completion date or a sudden change in circumstances – we can often arrange rapid packing support, subject to availability. Our experienced teams are used to working efficiently under time pressure without cutting corners.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does packing and boxes service cost?
The cost depends on the size of your property, how many items need packing and the level of service you choose. A one-bedroom flat with partial packing will be less than a full packing service for a large family home. We usually base prices on a survey so we can accurately estimate labour and materials. Your quote will clearly show packing costs, box and material charges, and any additional services such as dismantling, reassembly or unpacking, so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Can you provide same-day or urgent packing in Hammersmith?
Where our schedule allows, we can help with same-day or short-notice packing in Hammersmith, particularly for smaller flats or part-house jobs. Availability depends on the time of year and how many packers you require, so it is best to call us as soon as you know your dates. If we cannot fit everything into one visit, we may be able to prioritise key rooms or fragile items first, then complete the rest as soon as possible.
Are my belongings insured while being packed and moved?
Yes. We provide goods in transit insurance for your belongings while they are being moved, and public liability cover while we are working on your premises. These policies are designed to give you peace of mind in the unlikely event of an accident. There are limits and exclusions, which we explain in your quotation and terms, and we will advise you if any particularly high-value items require special handling or additional cover.
What exactly is included in your packing and boxes service?
Our service typically includes supply of boxes, packing paper and tape, professional packing of agreed items, labelling of boxes by room and contents, and preparation of furniture for transport. We can also dismantle and wrap furniture, pack fragile-only items if you prefer to do the rest, and provide an unpacking service at your destination. Your quote will specify whether materials are included, how many boxes are allowed for, and any optional extras you have chosen, so the scope is clear from the outset.
What’s the difference between your service and a basic man-and-van?
A basic man-and-van will usually just turn up, load what you have packed and drive it to the new property. Our service is a complete, professional removals and packing solution. We carry out surveys, plan vehicle sizes, provide quality materials, supply trained teams and offer fully insured cover. We also help with dismantling, careful wrapping, organised loading and placement at the other end. This reduces the risk of damage, gives you clearer timing and accountability, and generally makes the entire moving process smoother and less stressful.
How far in advance should I book packing and boxes?
For the best choice of dates, we recommend booking as soon as you have a likely move window – typically two to four weeks ahead for most properties. Peak periods such as month-end and school holidays can book up quickly. That said, we do our best to accommodate late bookings where we can. Once you have a confirmed completion or move date, let us know immediately so we can lock in your packing day and ensure we have the right team and materials reserved for you.
