What we dismantle
The pieces most often handled on our home and office moves.
Frames, headboards, bunk and cabin beds, taken apart so they can be carried safely through doorways and down stairs.
Full-height and double wardrobes, with rails and internal fittings removed separately.
Tall bookcases, cube shelving units and modular systems, separated into sections for safe transport.
L-shaped and large office desks, and dining tables with removable legs, so they fit through door frames and in the van.
Also handled
If you are unsure about a piece, describe it at the survey and we will advise.
Many modern sofas have removable bases or arms. We assess and dismantle where needed.
Built-in wardrobes and shelving usually stay with the property. We advise case by case.
New flat-pack furniture assembled as a standalone job by a 2-man team.
Desks, desk returns, pedestals and storage units dismantled and rebuilt at your new office.
How it works
Dismantling and reassembly are planned into your removal from the start.
Tell us which items need dismantling. For a full removal we note them at the free video survey and build the time into your quote and team size; for man and van, tell us when you book.
Dismantling is done before loading. Fixings are bagged and taped to each piece, and wrapping goes on straight away.
While part of the team unloads, others reassemble each piece in the rooms you choose.
We check every assembled item is stable and in the right place before we leave.
Standalone assembly
For new flat-pack deliveries or furniture bought online, we offer assembly as a separate booking.
Two people as standard: items are heavier than they look, and a second pair of hands makes the work faster and safer.
£396 including VAT for up to 4 hours, then £102 per hour. Time starts on arrival and ends when the job is done.
Most retailers list an estimated assembly time on the product page, which helps us plan your booking.
Our team
The same directly employed team that moves your furniture puts it back together.
The people who dismantle your furniture at the old address reassemble it at the new one.
Directly employed and trained in-house. Our core crew members have served for 8 to 15 years.
Electric screwdrivers, rubber mallets, spirit levels, Allen keys and wrenches on every removal.
Insurance and awards
Every move includes goods in transit insurance and public liability cover as standard, providing protection while your belongings are handled, loaded, transported and unloaded. Zero-excess cover is also available at an additional cost. Please let us know about any high-value or particularly delicate items in advance so we can arrange appropriate handling and discuss any specific insurance requirements.
Best London Removals has been a member of the National Guild of Removers & Storers (NGRS) since 2015. In 2026, we received three industry awards recognising our commitment to professional standards, customer care and service quality: the Professional Standards Commitment Award, Super Elite Plus Remover Award and Perfect Record Award.
We believe a successful move starts with careful planning, clear communication and accountability. From your initial quotation to the final delivery, we keep you informed, address concerns promptly and take responsibility for delivering the service agreed.

Dismantle and reassemble in Ruislip
We hired Best London Removals for a removal job in Ruislip. We found all the staff very honest and hard working. The whole dismantle, reassemble service was truly flawless.

Home move, table fixings refitted
Moved from Hayes to Ruislip beginning of February with Best London Removals, they were superb, packed the lorry expertly with wrapping on the soft furniture and good boxes supplied for the packing. 4 screws off my dining table were missing, the removal man found them in his van and returned them insisting on fitting them back on the table. Very professional service, would recommend this company to anyone going through the trauma of moving house.

Long-distance move with furniture dismantling
Best London Removals – very aptly named! Very reasonably priced, very efficient and professional service and very well organised, 5 star removal job! As it was a fairly long distance removal (in terms of travelling time) Ivelin’s team came the day before to pack up the first removal lorry then came very early the next morning to pack up the other one. They carefully dismantled any furniture that needed it, beds and wardrobes, and carefully wrapped up our sofas in protective coverings so that they weren’t damaged in transit. … They even safely moved our fish tank with the fish still in it and all of the fish are still alive and well!

Yes. For home and office removals, the items that need dismantling are listed at the survey and included in your quote, team size and timing.
Yes, please list them when you ask for a quote or during the video survey, so we bring the right tools and team. Last-minute requests on the day can usually be accommodated.
Fitted furniture usually stays with the property. Tell us about any built-in items when you ask for a quote and we will advise what is practical.
Yes. Bolts, cams, dowels and small fixings are bagged and taped to the matching piece before it is moved. Nothing travels loose.
It depends on the piece. A simple bed can take about 10 minutes to take apart and 10 to rebuild, while bunk beds, beds with desks, storage beds and complex wardrobes take much longer. On a fixed-price home or office move, we plan that time at the survey and send a big enough team, so your moving day keeps its usual length. On a man and van booking, dismantling, loading and reassembly are all part of your hourly time, so complex pieces add to it, and an extra team member may be worth it.
Yes. Standalone assembly is a separate booking: a 2-man team for up to 4 hours for £396 including VAT, then £102 per hour.
As a rule, if it would not fit through a doorway or down the stairs assembled, it needs taking apart. That includes most full-height wardrobes, beds, bunk beds and large modular units.
Yes, as part of your booked hours, so it adds to the time. Tell us what needs doing when you book so we bring the right tools; for complex pieces, an extra team member may be worth it. See our man and van service.
