Plan flat & apartment moves around your Aldridge access
For an Aldridge move, specify the full WS9 address, driveway dimensions and any shared access before estimating the carrying work. If loading depends on restricted road space, establish the lawful arrangement early and allow for a longer carry if permission is unavailable. Keep entrances and pavements clear while boxes and furniture are moved.
Describe the full inventory and which parts of the carrying, packing or dismantling you need included. A shorter journey can still involve substantial handling at each property.
- Agree a lawful Aldridge loading location and a fallback carrying or handover point if restricted road space cannot be used.
- For flat & apartment moves, prepare: floor and lift details; large furniture sizes; loading and handover times.
Two Aldridge addresses need two access plans
A short journey within Aldridge can still involve more carrying than a longer journey between accessible homes. Describe the collection and destination separately: the floor, stairs, lift, shared doors and distance from a suitable loading position. Include anything in an outbuilding or separate garage.
For a completion-dependent move, distinguish the planned departure from the earliest confirmed access to the new home. Keep an essentials bag with you and agree waiting arrangements while the date is being confirmed.
Small home, accurate inventory
List beds, sofas, tables, appliances and storage furniture, then estimate boxes and bags. Include balcony items and anything stored separately. Mark furniture that needs taking apart and tell us if you need help with packing.
If only a few items are moving, a man-and-van enquiry may be a useful starting point. The crew and vehicle should still match the actual lifting and access requirements.
Coordinate two sets of access rules
Check moving hours at both buildings. Arrange keys, entry fobs and someone to receive the load. If leaving a rental, include the key-return deadline and the earliest access to your next home.
Keep corridors and fire exits clear while preparing. Confirm the agreed price, crew and included work before booking, then update us if the building’s arrangements change.
Your Aldridge enquiry checklist
- For flat & apartment moves, have these details ready: floor and lift details; large furniture sizes; loading and handover times.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. WS9 is a location reference, not the whole service area.
- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
- Check the quote’s supplier, price, inclusions and booking terms before confirming.
