Maintain an item-level record
Give furniture separate inventory lines and number boxes. Note dismantled pieces and where their fittings are kept. If the unit is shared or only part is being emptied, identify exactly what is authorised to leave. Avoid using the unit’s floor area as the only estimate of transport requirements.
Plan storage move inventory 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 storage move inventory, prepare: actual stored item list; clear collect-or-stay labels; facility access and release details.
- 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.
Treat each storage journey separately
An outward move into storage and a later return can have different loads, access and dates. Confirm the facility’s opening window, lift dimensions and release arrangements for the relevant day. You arrange the storage unit; transport does not include rental or a promise that the selected load will fit a particular unit.
Before collection from storage
- Check that the collection inventory is current and accessible.
- Arrange an authorised person to open the unit.
- Provide the destination room plan and any changed furniture condition.
