Use an item list instead of a house-size estimate
Walk through each room and list only the belongings included in the move. Specify quantities where similar chairs, shelves or boxes remain behind. Mark selected pieces consistently, and have someone available who can resolve questions. Do not rely on vague instructions such as taking “about half” of a room.
Plan part-house moves 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.
Separate the tenancy or key handover deadline from your preferred arrival time. Label each person’s belongings and identify items that should remain in a shared house.
- Confirm the Long Street or Market Square entrance and any date-specific event access.
- For part-house moves, prepare: a selected removal list; clear stay-or-go labels; destination for every item.
Resolve destinations before loading
If some furniture is going to family and the rest to a new home, number the stops and label each item accordingly. Separate donations, sales and unwanted items that you are arranging yourself. This transport enquiry does not include waste clearance. Report additions before the booking so capacity and carrying time can be reviewed.
Prepare the selected load
- Keep boxes for the move separate from boxes staying in the property.
- Record dimensions of the large pieces included.
- Name a contact who can confirm what is authorised to leave.
