Count the complete working space
List desks, chairs, cabinets, meeting furniture and boxed files. Include shared equipment and items in store cupboards. Identify furniture staying behind or being replaced. Give dimensions of large desks and explain any dismantling required. Staff numbers are useful context but cannot define the transport load on their own.
Plan small office moves at your Bishop's Cleeve address
For a Church Road or community-premises job, distinguish the room or reception address from the loading entrance. Ask the person managing the venue to agree arrival time, unloading space and the contact who can open it.
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 small office moves, prepare: workstation and furniture list; prepared it and boxed contents; authorised building contacts.
- 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.
Set preparation and receiving responsibilities
Choose contacts who can authorise collection and direct room placement. Arrange IT shutdown, disconnection and data handling through your own staff or provider. Confirm loading access and moving hours with both buildings. Transport does not automatically include installation, reconnecting systems or guaranteeing uninterrupted business operations.
