The tabletop determines much of the plan
Glass, stone and solid-wood tops can have very different handling needs. Give dimensions, known weight and construction details. Explain whether the top separates from the base and whether the seller will prepare it. Do not assume a large or unusually heavy top is suitable for an ordinary furniture collection.
Plan dining table & chair collection around your Atherstone access
A move from an Atherstone address near Long Street or Market Square needs the exact loading point and a clear route through any shared entrance. If a market or event overlaps your preferred date, ask the occupier how access will work. Keep the key handover time separate from the time a vehicle can reach the property.
Measure the item in its travel condition and the tightest doorway or turn. Ask the seller to confirm what can be dismantled and who will prepare it before collection.
- Confirm the Long Street or Market Square entrance and any date-specific event access.
- For dining table & chair collection, prepare: table and chair quantities; top material and dimensions; removable legs and leaves.
Count the pieces that are easy to miss
Include spare extension leaves, seat pads and detached legs. Ask how the chairs can be packed or carried without pressure on their backs. Measure the largest rigid section against entrances and stair turns at both addresses. Retain fittings in a labelled bag and specify whether assembly is requested on delivery.
Make the dining-set request complete
- State the table size when prepared for transport.
- Include every chair and loose extension component.
- Flag fragile tops or existing damage before handling is agreed.
