Make decisions before the moving day
Work through rooms together and record what goes to the new home, to another family address or into separately arranged storage. Label destinations clearly. Keep sentimental possessions, documents and everyday essentials under the family’s agreed arrangements. Avoid leaving decisions about cherished items to a hurried collection.
Plan helping parents move around your Birmingham access
For Birmingham moves, provide both complete addresses and explain whether either property has a booked loading bay, concierge or service lift. Separate building access from the vehicle route: check clean-air-zone requirements for the proposed vehicle and route before confirming the plan. Record lift dimensions, floor level and the time allowed for loading.
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 Birmingham building access and the proposed vehicle's clean-air-zone status as separate checks.
- For helping parents move, prepare: the moving person’s agreement; a confirmed keep-list; named family contact.
Describe practical access and carrying needs
Tell us if family members cannot assist with lifting, and name someone who can direct the move. Check the new home’s entrance, lift and furniture space in advance. If a managed residence is involved, confirm its access hours and receiving contact. This is a transport enquiry, not a personal-care or passenger service.
Keep coordination straightforward
- Choose one contact authorised to discuss the booking.
- Confirm room placement for the main furniture.
- Arrange separate support and travel for the person moving.
Your Birmingham enquiry checklist
- For helping parents move, have these details ready: the moving person’s agreement; a confirmed keep-list; named family contact.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. B2 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.
