Plan flat & apartment moves around your Blockley access
For a Blockley move, identify the actual furniture exit and any stairs, lift or rear courtyard before choosing a loading position. Protect vulnerable corners and identify box weights before the load leaves a Blockley property. Separate heavy contents into manageable packages where suitable, and tell the team about steps or slopes before handling is agreed.
Describe the full inventory and which parts of the carrying, packing or dismantling you need included. A shorter journey can still involve substantial handling at each property.
- Confirm a suitable loading position, any permission needed and the route from the property; being close to the village centre does not establish loading access.
- For flat & apartment moves, prepare: floor and lift details; large furniture sizes; loading and handover times.
Plan flat & apartment moves at your Blockley address
At a hillside Blockley home, measure the route from the largest item to the intended loading position. Record steps separately from a continuous slope and explain any turning point where a sofa or wardrobe must be rotated.
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 flat & apartment moves, prepare: floor and lift details; large furniture sizes; loading and handover times.
- The street address does not describe the carrying route on a sloping site. Include the rise or fall from the agreed loading position to the doorway and any steps or tight turns.
Small home, accurate inventory
List beds, sofas, tables, appliances and storage furniture, then estimate boxes and bags. Include balcony items and anything stored separately. Mark furniture that needs taking apart and tell us if you need help with packing.
If only a few items are moving, a man-and-van enquiry may be a useful starting point. The crew and vehicle should still match the actual lifting and access requirements.
Coordinate two sets of access rules
Check moving hours at both buildings. Arrange keys, entry fobs and someone to receive the load. If leaving a rental, include the key-return deadline and the earliest access to your next home.
Keep corridors and fire exits clear while preparing. Confirm the agreed price, crew and included work before booking, then update us if the building’s arrangements change.
