Removals In Richmond
Looking for removals in Richmond you can trust with genuinely valuable belongings? Britannia Sandersteads has been running removals Richmond families rely on for over 50 years, from our depot 8-10 miles away via the A25 or M25. We know the CPZ restrictions on Hill Rise, the vehicle access limits around Richmond Park, and the care that period homes and riverside mansion blocks demand.

Removals in Richmond and the surrounding areas
As well as removals in Richmond itself, we regularly work in Kew, Twickenham, Barnes, Teddington, Kingston, East Sheen and St Margarets — plenty of our jobs are people moving between two of these rather than coming from further out.
Richmond’s mix of property types means no two jobs look the same. Georgian and Victorian period homes near the riverside often come with fragile fittings and antiques that need proper protection, not just wrapping and hoping. Mansion blocks on and around Richmond Hill usually mean shared stairwells, restricted delivery windows and sometimes a porter to coordinate with. And getting a lorry through at all can be its own challenge — Hill Rise is narrow and steep, CPZ parking restrictions apply across much of the borough, and Richmond Park itself has vehicle access limits and gate closing times that catch out anyone routing through it without checking first.
For nearby moves, our Kingston and Epsom pages cover those areas in more detail.
Your Local Removal Company in Richmond
Britannia Sandersteads has been carrying out removals in Richmond since 1972, when we started out as a family-run business in Godstone. Over 50 years on, we’re still family-run, still crewed by our own full-time staff rather than agency labour, and still close enough that a Richmond job isn’t a special trip.
That matters here more than most places. Richmond has a higher concentration of genuinely high-value items than many of the areas we cover — art, antiques, period furniture — and moving them properly means the right materials and the patience to do it carefully, not just speed. Our house removals team plans for this at survey stage: what needs specialist packing, what needs a smaller vehicle because of Hill Rise or a CPZ-restricted street, and what needs coordinating with a mansion block’s porter or building management before moving day.
As a member of the British Association of Removers (BAR) and part of the Britannia Cooperative, we work to standards we’re actually inspected against, and we were named in the National Quality Awards in both 2023 and 2024 — built on regular jobs like the ones described above, not a single standout case.

What affects the cost of removals in Richmond?
Volume, distance, access at both ends, and whether items need specialist packing. A mansion-block flat needing porter coordination, or a house with antiques and fine furniture, usually costs more to move than a straightforward property of the same size – we always survey first rather than quote over the phone.
How does the survey process work?
A free video survey or in-home visit, usually within a few days, checking access, parking and anything fragile or high-value before we send a written quote.
What packing options do you offer?
Full self-pack, partial packing of fragile or high-value items only, or a complete professional pack the day before your move — with specialist materials for antiques and period furniture where needed.
How long can you store my belongings, and where?
At our Godstone depot in containerised, CCTV-monitored units – from a few weeks to several months, depending on your chain.
What about CPZ parking and access around Richmond Park?
Much of Richmond has controlled parking zones, and Richmond Park itself has vehicle access limits and gate closing times. We check both at survey and plan the route and any permits needed in advance.
Are my belongings insured, and how does move-day timing work?
Yes – goods-in-transit insurance is confirmed on your quote, with extra cover available for higher-value items. We agree a loading time and a realistic arrival window in advance.
