Removal & Relocation

Professional Solutions for Changing Circumstances

We Decommission.
We Don't Just
Take It Out.

There are many reasons why a stairlift may need to be moved or removed. Whether you are moving house, undergoing home renovations, or the equipment is simply no longer required, Vertical Movement Services Ltd provides a professional, clean, and safe removal service.

As engineers, we understand that a stairlift is a complex piece of machinery integrated into your home's infrastructure. We ensure that the removal is handled with technical care, prioritising the safety of the occupants and the integrity of your property's décor.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

Safe & Efficient
Stairlift Removal

We don't just take out a lift; we decommission it. Our engineers follow a strict process to ensure your home is returned to its original state as quickly as possible.

01
Electrical Isolation
We perform a safe electrical disconnection, ensuring all power points are left in a safe, compliant condition.
02
Structural Care
Our engineers are trained to remove the rail and brackets with minimal impact on your stairs. Because most stairlifts are fixed to the treads rather than the walls, the remaining marks are usually small and easy to manage.
03
Ethical Disposal
If the lift is at the end of its operational life, we ensure it is disposed of responsibly. In line with our environmental policies, we recycle metal components and manage battery disposal through certified hazardous waste channels.

Stairlift Relocation
Services

If you are moving to a new property or need to move a lift from one staircase to another, we can help assess the feasibility of a relocation.

Technical Assessment

Not every lift can be moved to a new staircase. We provide a professional survey to determine if the existing carriage and rail can be safely adapted to a new environment.

New Rail for Curved Lifts

While the motor and seat (the carriage) can often be reused, curved staircases require a bespoke rail. We can design and install a new rail to work with your existing carriage, providing a cost-effective way to maintain your mobility in a new home.

Re-installation & Safety Testing

Any relocated lift undergoes the same rigorous testing and commissioning as a brand-new installation, ensuring it meets all current domestic safety standards before use.
