About Us
About Kensington Movers – Your Local Area Removal Service
Kensington Movers is a locally based removal company dedicated to serving homes and businesses across Kensington and the surrounding area. From the elegant terraces around Kensington High Street to the busy mews streets near Earl's Court and the mansion blocks by Holland Park, we provide a reliable, friendly and professional area removal service rooted in the community we call home.
Our Story in Kensington
Kensington Movers began over a decade ago with a simple idea: to offer a trustworthy, personal removal service that truly understands the character and needs of this unique part of London. Starting with a single van operating around streets like Gloucester Road, Warwick Road and Cromwell Road, we quickly built a reputation for care, punctuality and local knowledge.
Over the years, we have helped families move between flats in Kensington Church Street, assisted professionals relocating to new apartments overlooking Hyde Park, and supported businesses moving offices around South Kensington and Notting Hill Gate. Every move has deepened our understanding of the local streets, estates and residential blocks that define the Kensington Movers area.
Today, we run a modern fleet and a trained team, but we retain the same neighbourly attitude that shaped us from day one: respect for our customers, care for their belongings, and genuine pride in serving the community where we live and work.
Years of Local Experience
For more than 10 years, Kensington Movers has specialised in providing a complete area removal service across the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Our experience spans:
• Period townhouses near Holland Park and Kensington Palace
• Mansion flats around Earl's Court Square and Lexham Gardens
• Modern developments close to Westfield London and Shepherd's Bush
• Commercial premises near High Street Kensington, Gloucester Road and Notting Hill
This long-standing presence means we understand the everyday realities of moving in Kensington: narrow streets, controlled parking zones, listed buildings, lifts, loading restrictions and the timing needed to work around local traffic and school runs.
Environment Agency Licensed and Responsible
Kensington Movers operates as an Environment Agency licensed carrier, broker and dealer of waste. This means we are authorised and accountable for the way we handle, transport and dispose of any unwanted items taken during your move. As a professional removal company in the area, we take compliance seriously and work to exceed the legal standards set out for environmental responsibility.
When we clear items as part of your removal, we ensure they are taken only to approved facilities or responsible recycling partners. We never engage in fly-tipping or unregulated dumping, protecting both the environment and our community spaces, from Kensington Gardens to Brompton Cemetery and the smaller local parks dotted across the borough.
Our Trained and Professional Staff
The strength of Kensington Movers lies in our team. All staff undergo thorough training in safe lifting, packing, handling fragile items and working in tight or complex spaces such as stairwells in older Kensington mansion blocks. Many of our team members live in or near Kensington, which gives them a genuine understanding of local streets, estates and building layouts.
Our crews are experienced in moves involving:
• Period features and delicate fixtures in traditional townhouses
• Valuable artwork, antiques and bespoke furniture
• Top-floor apartments with limited lift access
• Communal entrances and shared spaces in larger estates
From the initial survey to the final box unloaded, you will find our team polite, punctual and focused on keeping your move as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Our Mission
The mission of Kensington Movers is straightforward: to provide a dependable, high-quality local removal service that respects our customers, their possessions and our wider community. As a leading removal company in the area, we aim to:
• Deliver efficient, well-planned moves tailored to each property
• Offer transparent, honest service without hidden extras
• Handle every item with care, from packing to placement
• Minimise disruption to neighbours and local streets
• Operate in a way that supports environmental sustainability
Eco-Responsibility and Recycling Partnerships
We recognise that every move can create waste, from unwanted furniture to old electrical items. As a responsible area removal service, Kensington Movers is committed to reducing the environmental impact of every job.
Our eco-responsible approach includes:
• Prioritising reuse and donation where suitable
• Working with licensed recycling centres across Kensington and nearby borough facilities
• Sorting materials so that wood, metal, cardboard and electrical goods are diverted from landfill wherever possible
• Offering reusable packing materials and encouraging customers to opt for greener packing options
We routinely make use of local civic amenity and recycling sites serving Kensington residents, ensuring items are handled according to current environmental guidelines. Our aim is to combine the convenience of a full removal service with the reassurance that your unwanted goods are dealt with in a responsible, traceable way.
Roots in the Kensington Community
What sets Kensington Movers apart from many other removal companies is our real, long-standing connection to this area. Over the years, we have assisted with countless moves in and around well-known local locations such as Kensington Gardens, Holland Park, Earl's Court, South Kensington and the streets that link them.
Our work frequently takes us across estates and blocks off Kensington High Street, in residential corners near the Design Museum, and along tree-lined roads leading towards Notting Hill and Bayswater. This day-to-day presence keeps us closely in touch with the changing character and needs of our community.
We also support local initiatives whenever we can, from donating reusable items to local charities to accommodating special moving schedules for community events and small independent businesses. Our goal is to act not just as a removal company in the area, but as a helpful neighbour who understands the pressures and pace of life in Kensington.
