Same Day Removals in Edgware You Can Rely On

We operate locally across Edgware and the surrounding areas, combining fast response times with the standards you would expect from an experienced, established removals company.
Local Edgware Expertise – Fast Response, Proper Planning
Because we are based in Edgware, we know the local roads, parking restrictions, loading bays and building layouts extremely well. That makes a big difference on a same day move, where there is no time for trial and error.
We regularly handle urgent moves across Edgware, including residential streets off the High Street, blocks of flats around Burnt Oak and Canons Park, and commercial premises near the Broadwalk Centre. This local knowledge helps us plan vehicle access, avoid bottlenecks and complete your move efficiently, even at short notice.
Who Our Same Day Removals Service Is For
Our same day removals in Edgware are designed to support a wide range of clients:
- Homeowners needing urgent completion moves when dates change at the last minute.

- Landlords who require fast clearance of properties between tenancies or after emergencies.
- Businesses needing rapid office or shop moves, temporary relocations or equipment transfers.

Whether it is a full-house move, a partial relocation, or a critical one-off load, we plan your same day job with the same care as a scheduled move.
What Our Same Day Removals Include
Items We Commonly Move
Our vehicles and equipment are set up to safely move a wide variety of household and business items, including:
- Domestic furniture – beds, wardrobes, sofas, tables, chairs, cabinets
- White goods – fridges, freezers, washing machines, tumble dryers, cookers
- Boxes, suitcases and bags of personal belongings
- Office furniture – desks, chairs, filing cabinets, shelving
- IT and electrical equipment, properly protected and secured
- Garage and shed contents, within safe lifting limits
Items We Cannot Move
For safety, legal and insurance reasons, some items are excluded from our same day removals service:
- Hazardous materials (fuel, gas bottles, chemicals, paints, solvents)
- Illegal goods of any kind
- Unboxed loose liquids or open containers
- Live animals or pets
- Large commercial machinery beyond standard lifting capacity
- Items requiring specialist removal teams (e.g. grand pianos, safes above agreed weight limits) unless pre-arranged
If you are unsure whether something can be moved, we will clarify this during your enquiry so there are no surprises on the day.
Our Same Day Removals Process
Even when time is tight, we follow a clear, structured process to keep your move organised and controlled.
1. Enquiry & Quick Quote
Call us or send an enquiry with as much detail as you can: addresses, property type, access information, and what needs moving. We will quickly assess availability, vehicle size and crew requirements. You will receive a clear quote outlining what is included, estimated timings, and any additional options you may need.
2. Rapid Survey – Virtual or Onsite
For most same day moves in Edgware, we carry out a fast virtual survey via video call or photos. This allows us to check volume, access (stairs, lifts, parking) and any awkward items. For larger or more complex moves where time allows, we may send a surveyor out. The aim is to turn up properly prepared with the right vehicle, equipment and crew.
3. Packing & Preparation
We can offer several levels of packing support, even on the same day:
- Full packing service – our team packs your belongings into cartons, labelling each box by room.
- Part packing service – we handle fragile or awkward items; you pack the rest.
- Owner-packed service – you pack in advance; we supply materials if needed.
Furniture is wrapped with protective blankets, and we use covers for mattresses, sofas and other upholstery where required.
4. Loading & Transport
Our professional, trained movers load your belongings systematically, securing everything carefully in the vehicle. We use trolleys, straps and ramps to protect both your goods and the property. Once loaded, your belongings are transported directly to the destination using the most efficient route, taking Edgware traffic patterns into account.
5. Unloading & Placement
On arrival, we unload room by room, placing items where you want them. We can reassemble basic furniture we have dismantled as part of the move, subject to prior agreement. Before we leave, we will ask you to walk through the property with us to ensure everything is where you need it and that you are satisfied with the move.
Transparent Pricing for Same Day Removals in Edgware
Same day removals require responsive scheduling and careful planning, but that does not mean unclear pricing. Our quotes are straightforward, with no hidden extras.
Costs are typically based on:
- Volume of goods to be moved
- Number of movers required
- Travel distance between addresses
- Access challenges (flats without lifts, long carries, restricted parking)
- Any packing services or materials supplied
Because every same day move is different, we do not publish a single fixed price. Instead, we provide a firm quotation once we understand your specific requirements, so you know exactly what you are paying for. Where overtime or additional services may apply, we explain this in advance.
Why Choose Professional Same Day Removals Over DIY or Casual Man-and-Van
When time is short, it can be tempting to grab the cheapest option or try to move everything yourself. In our experience, this usually leads to stress, damage and delays.
With Edgware Movers, you benefit from:
- Trained crews who move heavy and fragile items safely and efficiently.
- Proper goods in transit insurance and public liability cover.
- Suitable, well-maintained vehicles equipped for removals, not just transport.
- Systematic planning, even when the move is arranged at short notice.
- Clear communication and accountability from a reputable local company.
DIY moves or casual man-and-van operators often lack adequate insurance, correct equipment and the experience to protect your belongings and property under pressure.
Insurance & Professional Standards
We take our responsibilities seriously, particularly for urgent moves where decisions must be made quickly.
- Goods in transit insurance – covers your belongings while they are being moved in our vehicles, subject to policy terms and valuation.
- Public liability cover – protects against accidental damage to third-party property or injury caused by our activities.
- Trained moving teams – all staff receive practical training in lifting techniques, packing, loading, and customer care.
We work to industry best practice, carrying out risk assessments on arrival and taking extra care in shared spaces such as communal hallways and lifts in Edgware blocks and estates.
Care, Protection and Our Approach to Sustainability
Even on a same day job, we never cut corners on care. Floors, bannisters and doorways are protected where required, and we use appropriate wrapping and covers for furniture and fragile items. Our crews are instructed to treat every property with respect, leaving both the old and new addresses clean and tidy.
We are also conscious of our environmental impact. Where possible, we:
- Reuse durable packing materials and crates
- Offer collection and reuse of good-quality boxes after your move
- Plan routes to minimise unnecessary mileage
- Encourage responsible disposal or donation of unwanted items
Real-World Same Day Use Cases in Edgware
Moving House at Short Notice
Chains collapse and reform, completion dates shift, and sometimes you find out very late that you can collect your keys. We regularly help Edgware families and individuals complete full house moves in a day, coordinating directly with estate agents and key-holders where required.
Urgent Office and Shop Relocations
For businesses, time really is money. We support small offices, retail units and service businesses across Edgware with urgent relocations and equipment moves, often outside normal working hours to minimise downtime.
Last-Minute Student and Rental Moves
Students and renters often face tight turnaround times between tenancies or after university accommodation changes. Our same day service is ideal for moving from halls to shared houses, or between rented flats, even if you only have a room’s worth of belongings.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a same day removal in Edgware cost?
The cost of a same day removal in Edgware depends on how much you are moving, the distance between properties, and how many movers are required. Access issues, such as upper-floor flats without lifts or difficult parking, can also affect the price. Once we have basic details and, ideally, a quick virtual survey, we provide a clear, itemised quotation before you commit. There are no hidden extras; any potential additional charges, such as overtime, are explained in advance so you can make an informed decision.
Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?
We do our best to accommodate same day and urgent requests, especially within Edgware, but availability does depend on how busy we are and the size of your move. Smaller moves are often easier to schedule at short notice, whereas large full-house moves may require a little flexibility on timing. The earlier in the day you contact us, the better chance we have of arranging a suitable vehicle and crew. If true same day is not possible, we will offer the earliest realistic alternative and explain your options.
Are my belongings insured during a same day move?
Yes. Your belongings are protected by our goods in transit insurance while they are being moved in our vehicles, subject to the usual policy conditions. We also carry public liability cover for accidental damage to third-party property. During your enquiry, we will outline the cover in plain language and advise if any particularly high-value or unusual items require special arrangements. We also minimise the likelihood of claims by using trained crews, appropriate packing, and secure loading practices on every job, including urgent and same day moves.
What is included in your same day removals service?
Our same day removals service in Edgware typically includes a vehicle sized for your move, a trained moving team, loading, transport and unloading at your new address. We can also provide packing materials and offer full or part packing services where time and access allow. Basic dismantling and reassembly of standard furniture can be included if agreed in advance. Parking arrangements, congestion charges or tolls are discussed during quoting so everyone is clear on what is and is not covered before the move begins.
How is a professional removals service different from a man-and-van?
A professional removals company like Edgware Movers provides more than just transport. We supply trained staff, proper equipment, and full insurance cover, along with structured planning for your move. Vehicles are configured for removals, not general haulage, and crews are used to handling bulky and fragile items in tight spaces. Many casual man-and-van operators offer little or no insurance, limited protection materials and minimal accountability. For a same day move, where mistakes can be costly, working with a professional team significantly reduces risk and stress.
How far in advance should I book if I think I may need a same day move?
If you suspect you might require a same day or very short-notice move in Edgware, it is worth contacting us as early as possible, even before your plans are confirmed. We can provisionally discuss options, note your likely dates and explain what information we will need if you do need to proceed quickly. While we are accustomed to genuinely last-minute calls, a little advance warning increases the chance of securing your preferred time slot and ensures we can allocate the right resources for a smooth, efficient move.
