What Our Same day Removals Service Includes
Our same day removals service is designed for urgent, last‑minute and time‑critical moves. We work efficiently while keeping your belongings protected at every stage.
Typical situations we handle the same day
- Short‑notice flat and house moves in and around Homerton
- Urgent office or shop relocations that can’t wait

Where possible, we can also provide same day packing and furniture disassembly/reassembly, subject to availability at the time of booking.
Local Removals Expertise in Homerton
Based in Homerton, we know the local streets, estates and parking restrictions extremely well. This local knowledge matters on a same day move: it helps us choose the best routes, arrange loading points quickly and avoid costly delays.
We regularly move customers in and around Homerton, Hackney, Clapton, Stratford and the wider East London area, so we’re used to narrow staircases, top‑floor flats without lifts and tight access roads. We plan your move around the reality of Homerton life, not a textbook.
Who Our Same day Removals Are For
Homeowners
For homeowners facing a chain change, completion brought forward or other last‑minute surprises, we can provide a professional crew to move your furniture and personal items safely the same day, keeping stress to a minimum.
Renters
If you’ve had short notice from a landlord or need to vacate before the end of the day, we’ll help you clear your flat or house quickly, protect your deposit by avoiding damage, and get you into your new place or storage unit without fuss.
Landlords & Letting Agents
We support landlords who need same day removals for abandoned goods, end‑of‑tenancy clearances or rapid turnaround between tenants. We work respectfully within your legal responsibilities and keep access areas tidy.

From small offices to retail units, we can relocate equipment, stock and furniture on the same day where schedules are tight or unexpected events occur. We understand the cost of downtime and work to minimise disruption.

Our Step‑by‑Step Same Day Removals Process
1. Enquiry & Quote
Call us as early as you can. We’ll ask a few focused questions about your addresses, access, volume of items and timing. For most same day moves we can provide a clear, fixed or fixed‑plus‑hourly quote over the phone or by email, so you know where you stand before we load a single box.
2. Survey (Virtual or Onsite)
For urgent moves, we typically carry out a quick virtual survey using photos or video call. This lets us judge the size of van required, number of movers, and any access issues (stairs, lifts, parking). Where time and location allow, we may conduct a brief onsite visit in Homerton or nearby.
3. Packing & Preparation
You can pack your own items, or, subject to availability, we can provide same day packing services. We bring blankets, straps and basic materials to protect furniture and key items. We ask that loose items are boxed where possible to keep the move safe and efficient.
4. Loading & Transport
Our trained team loads your belongings carefully, securing items with straps and blankets to prevent movement in transit. We plan the route using our local knowledge of Homerton and surrounding areas, avoiding low bridges, weight limits and known bottlenecks where possible.
5. Unloading & Placement
At the destination, we unload items into the rooms you specify. We place large furniture where you want it so you’re not left struggling at the end of a long day. Before leaving, we check that everything we loaded has been delivered and that you’re satisfied with the placement.
Transparent Pricing for Same day Removals
Same day work has to be priced fairly to account for short notice, crew availability and scheduling, but we keep costs straightforward and competitive.
How we calculate your price
- Size of vehicle and number of movers required
- Amount of goods and estimated time to load/unload
- Travel distance between properties and any additional stops
- Timing (daytime, evening, weekend or bank holiday)
- Any extra services – packing, furniture assembly, clearances
Where possible, we provide a fixed price for the full move. For very fluid or open‑ended jobs, we may suggest an hourly rate with a minimum booking period, always explained clearly in advance.
Why Choose Professional Removals Over DIY or Casual Man‑and‑Van?
On a same day move, mistakes cost time and money. A casual man‑and‑van often turns up alone, without the correct equipment, insurance or planning. That can mean multiple trips, damaged furniture or even a no‑show when you need them most.
With Man with Van Homerton you get a professional team that moves people every day for a living. We bring the right size van, the right number of movers, proper protection materials and a structured plan, even under time pressure. This help reduces the risk of breakages, injuries and access problems, and gets you moved in the shortest practical time.
Insurance and Professional Standards
Your belongings are important, especially when everything is happening quickly. That’s why we operate with:
- Goods in transit insurance to protect your items while they are in our vehicle
- Public liability cover in case of accidental damage to property or third parties
- Trained moving teams who know how to lift, carry and protect items properly
Details of cover limits are available on request. We always handle your possessions as if they were our own, but it’s important that proper insurance is in place as an extra safeguard.
Care, Protection and Sustainability
Moving fast doesn’t mean cutting corners on care. We use padded blankets, straps and where appropriate, floor protection to minimise scuffs and scrapes. We take particular care with stairwells and tight turns, which are common in Homerton properties.
We also aim to work responsibly: re‑using durable packing materials where hygiene allows, minimising unnecessary journeys, and advising customers on how to reduce waste when clearing out. For items you no longer need, we can often transport them to charity shops or recycling centres as part of the job, by prior arrangement.
Real‑World Same Day Removals Use Cases
Moving House at Short Notice
A completion date brought forward, a chain that suddenly aligns, or a landlord requesting early handover – we regularly help Homerton residents move house on the same day with minimal disruption, ensuring large items and essentials are in place first.
Office and Business Relocations
Whether it’s a small creative studio relocating across Hackney or a retail unit reshuffling stock, we can move you outside of normal hours where required, reducing downtime and keeping your team working.
Urgent and Emergency Moves
Life doesn’t always give much notice. We support customers in sensitive situations – relationship changes, urgent safety moves, or sudden changes in living arrangements – with a discreet, respectful and efficient service.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a same day removal in Homerton cost?
Costs vary depending on the size of your move, access at each property, distance travelled and how quickly the work needs to be completed. Smaller flat moves in Homerton can sometimes be completed in a few hours with a single van and team, while larger house or office moves will take longer and require more crew. Once we understand what needs moving, we’ll give you a clear price, either fixed or hourly, with no hidden extras for standard work. Contact us for an accurate, no‑obligation quote.
Can you always offer same day or urgent availability?
We do our best to accommodate genuine same day requests, especially in Homerton and nearby areas, but availability depends on how busy our schedule is when you call. The earlier in the day you contact us, the better chance we have of arranging a suitable team and vehicle. If we can’t take on the full job immediately, we may be able to offer a partial same day service (for example, moving essentials today and the remainder shortly after). We’ll always be honest about what is realistically achievable.
Are my belongings insured during a same day move?
Yes. Our goods in transit insurance covers your belongings while they are in our vehicle, and our public liability cover protects against accidental damage to property or third parties during the move. These policies apply to same day removals in the same way they do to pre‑booked moves. It’s important that fragile or especially valuable items are pointed out to us in advance so we can give them extra protection and advice. Full details of our cover, including limits and exclusions, are available on request.
What’s included in your same day removals service?
As standard, we provide a vehicle of suitable size, a trained removals team, loading, safe transportation and unloading into the rooms you choose. We bring blankets and straps to protect and secure your goods. On many jobs we can also help with basic furniture disassembly and reassembly, provided this is discussed in advance. Optional extras, such as packing services, disposal of unwanted items or additional stops (for example to collect keys or pick up from storage), can usually be added for a clearly stated additional cost.
How is your service different from a casual man‑and‑van?
While a casual man‑and‑van might be fine for a couple of boxes, a same day home or office move is more demanding. We operate as a professional removals company: we use trained staff, carry the right insurances, plan access and routes, and bring the equipment needed to protect your furniture and property. We also provide clear pricing and written confirmations, so you’re not relying on a verbal promise. This approach significantly reduces the risk of delays, damage or last‑minute cancellations on an already stressful day.
How far in advance should I book, if my move is urgent?
If you know you need to move today, contact us as soon as possible in the morning. For next‑day urgent moves, booking the previous afternoon or evening usually gives us more flexibility to allocate the right crew and vehicle. For planned but tight‑deadline moves, giving us a few days’ notice is ideal. However, we understand that not every situation allows that, and we will always try to find a practical solution, even at very short notice, where our schedule safely permits.
