Quick answer
How much does office removals cost in Covent Garden?
Covent Garden offices are creative firms in period buildings around Seven Dials and Long Acre — narrow stairs, no goods lift, a street that is pedestrian by day and theatre traffic by night. We crate by desk, move IT in padded crates and work early mornings or Sundays so the move does not fight the area.
Covent Garden removals are warehouse-conversion flats with small lifts, flats above the Piazza shops and offices around Seven Dials, on streets that are pedestrian by day and theatre traffic by night.
We plan the stop on Floral Street, Shelton Street or the Drury Lane side, measure large pieces against the lift from photos, and start early or on a Sunday.

- Factual Pricing: Pre-fixed and hourly rates with no surprise high-floor fees.
Local knowledge
Moving in Covent Garden: what changes the job
The address sits inside the Congestion Charge zone. We confirm on the quote how the charge is handled, so nothing is added on the day.
The Piazza and the streets off it are pedestrian for most of the day, Seven Dials is a one-way maze, and the Strand is a red route. We plan the stop on Floral Street, Shelton Street, Endell Street or the Drury Lane side, and we start early before the area fills.
The old market warehouses on Shelton Street, Earlham Street and Long Acre are now flats and studios with big rooms, heavy doors and lifts that were fitted later and are small. We measure the awkward pieces against the lift from your photos and plan a stair carry where it will not fit.
Flats above the Piazza and Neal Street shops have a street door, a narrow stair and no parking at all. We send a small van that can use a loading bay, keep the carry short and the pavement clear for the shop below.
Long Acre, Great Queen Street and the Seven Dials streets are agencies, studios and small firms in period buildings with narrow stairs. Evening moves clash with theatre traffic, so for Covent Garden offices we propose early mornings or Sunday rather than a weekday evening.

FAQs
Covent Garden moving questions answered
Common questions before booking in Covent Garden. Not here? Call us — 8AM to 10PM.
Office removals start from £200 for a small office with one van, though small prepared desk runs can sometimes use the hourly van and helper rate from £110 / 2hrs. Desk count, archive volume, IT, crates and building access windows usually decide whether hourly or fixed pricing is clearer. Fuel, ULEZ, protection and standard insurance cover are included in the quote structure. Evening or weekend windows can reduce downtime when the building allows it. Send both addresses, desk count, lift or loading-bay notes and preferred timing by email and we will confirm the cleanest plan before you book. Covent Garden offices are creative firms in period buildings around Seven Dials and Long Acre — narrow stairs, no goods lift, a street that is pedestrian by day and theatre traffic by night. Send postcodes, floor levels and photos and we confirm the plan before you book.
Early morning, before the pedestrian streets fill, or Sunday morning. Weekday evenings clash with theatre traffic around Drury Lane and the Strand. We propose a start time with the quote and plan the stop on a side street where a van can sit.
Often not: the lifts in the old market buildings were fitted later and are small. Send photos of the lift and the largest pieces and we will tell you what goes in the lift and what the crew carries on the stairs, so the time is priced honestly.
Yes. A street door, a narrow stair and no parking is the standard Piazza flat. We send a small van that fits a loading bay on a side street, keep the carry short and the pavement clear for the shop below.
Yes, subject to crew availability and the building’s allowed access window. Many offices prefer Friday evenings, Saturdays or early slots so staff are not working around half-packed desks. Tell us quiet-hour rules, concierge requirements and lift booking times before we confirm. Weekend demand can be busy, so the earlier you share inventory and access notes, the more likely we can hold the window you need. If the building only allows weekday moves, we will plan the lowest-downtime sequence instead of forcing a weekend that security will not permit.

Yes. Monitors, towers, printers, docks and labelled desk IT can be moved carefully when packed or wrapped properly. We place equipment by desk or department labels so your team can reconnect faster. Specialist server racks, heavy UPS units or data-centre work need extra detail before booking — send dimensions, floor level and lift notes. We are movers, not your IT reconnection engineers, unless separately agreed. Clear labelling before arrival is the single best way to keep an office IT move calm.
