Choose the help you want to discuss
You may want help with a whole home, selected rooms or just the items you are least confident packing. Explain what you will prepare yourself and what you want included in the quote.
List fragile glass, artwork or unusually valuable belongings separately. Suitability and any specialist requirements need reviewing before a packing service is agreed.
Plan packing help at your Bishop's Cleeve address
Prepare boxes and dismantled furniture before the agreed loading window where possible. Keep fixings and essential first-use items identifiable so a Bishop’s Cleeve delivery can be handed over without blocking a shared entrance.
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 packing help, prepare: rooms needing help; fragile or unusual items; materials to discuss.
- 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.
Materials and labelling matter
Ask who supplies boxes, protective materials and tape, and whether they are included in the quoted price. If using your own boxes, keep them sound, manageable in weight and suitable for the contents.
Label by destination room, with a short contents note. Keep a separate essentials box for your first night and carry personal documents, medication and valuables yourself.
Fit packing into the moving schedule
Tell us your preferred move date and when the property can be accessed for preparation. Do not assume packing happens on the same day as transport; the timing needs agreeing with the rest of the move.
For a Bishop's Cleeve flat, leave corridors and shared routes clear. Explain any items that cannot be packed until the last moment and identify contents that should stay at the property. Confirm all inclusions and exclusions before booking.
