Choose before you pack
Compare beds, sofas, tables and appliances against the space available. Mark duplicate furniture you are selling, storing or leaving behind. The removal inventory should show the final choices, not every item currently owned. Give dimensions of the selected large pieces and identify any dismantling needed.
Plan moving in together at your Bishop's Cleeve address
For housing away from the village centre, give the street and house number as well as the postcode. Explain whether the vehicle can use the drive or must load from an agreed street position; the number of bedrooms does not establish how close the crew can get.
Match the inventory to the actual carrying and preparation work. Tell us which items need help, whether you want packing or dismantling, and who will provide access at each property.
- For moving in together, prepare: a keep-list from each home; both collection addresses; space and access at the new home.
- Distinguish a residential front door, a shop’s goods entrance and a community venue’s unloading point. Give the actual receiving contact, not just a landmark in the village centre.
Coordinate two collections and one delivery
List the homes in a proposed sequence with full postcodes and access times. Note different key-return deadlines and who will be present at each collection. Label boxes by final room, while keeping the source home identifiable if needed. Both loads must fit the agreed vehicle plan rather than being treated as unrelated small jobs.
Decisions to make before enquiring
- Which furniture will actually move into the shared home.
- Whether any item needs a separate family or storage destination.
- Who can approve the combined inventory and booking details.
