How much does an office move cost?

There is no flat rate, because cost reflects the volume of furniture and equipment, the distance, access at each building, whether IT and specialist items are involved, and whether the work runs in normal hours or out of them. We survey the move first and provide an itemised quotation, so the cost of each element is clear before you commit.

How long does an office relocation take?

A smaller office can often be moved across a single weekend, so staff return to a working space. Larger or multi-site moves are phased over a longer period, department by department, so part of the business keeps trading throughout. We set the timeline at survey and plan around your working hours.

How do you keep business downtime to a minimum?

We phase the move, work out of hours and at weekends where it helps, and migrate IT to an agreed schedule, so workstations are tested and ready before staff arrive. The intention is that your team loses as little working time as possible.

Do you handle IT migration and reconnection?

Yes. Desktop IT migration is part of our service. We decommission and recommission workstations and hardware, and coordinate with your IT team or provider so systems are disconnected, transported safely and brought back online to schedule.

Can you store our furniture and equipment during the move?

Yes. Our secure business storage holds office furniture, archives, stock and equipment for short or long periods, with a recorded inventory and staged deliveries back to you once the new space is ready.

About Your Move (optional)

Commercial Moves and Office Relocation Services

Relocating a business is a test of continuity. Your people, technology, records and equipment must reach a new address in good order. Meanwhile, the business has to keep running throughout. For over 60 years, Abels has managed commercial moves for organisations across London and the UK. They do this with the discretion, security and efficiency that blue-chip clients expect.

As a Royal Warrant holder, Abels brings the same assurance to a commercial relocation as to a private collection. A single point of contact runs the whole project, holding to your timelines, your budget and your standards. Importantly, this applies whether the move involves one office or several sites across the country.

One team. One point of contact

Few business moves are only about removals. There is furniture to dismantle and rebuild, IT to migrate, storage to arrange for whatever the new space cannot yet hold, and redundant equipment to clear with care. A dedicated move manager oversees all of it. In addition, they hold to the schedule and budget agreed at survey and ensure nothing falls between suppliers.

Downtime is the real cost of a move

Careful planning keeps that window short. A smaller office often moves across a single weekend, so staff return to a working space on Monday. Larger or multi-site moves run in phases, so part of the business stays open throughout. IT migrates to an agreed timetable. Furthermore, the team checks every workstation before staff sit down to it.

Assurance, independently audited

Abels holds FIDI FAIM certification, ISO 45001 for health and safety and ISO 14001 for environmental management, alongside the quality systems expected of a house established in 1958. Full insurance covers every commercial project. In addition, independent audit underpins each accreditation rather than self-assessment.
