Pack for weight and traceability
Paper can become heavy quickly, so use suitable boxes and avoid oversized loads. Number the boxes and keep a private record of their destination. Identify shelves or cabinets separately and explain whether they will be emptied. Do not assume a loaded filing cabinet can be moved as one ordinary item.
Plan office file & archive moves at your Blockley address
For business premises in Blockley, confirm the actual goods entrance and who controls it. Plan movement of furniture or equipment around the usable loading position and any changes of level, rather than assuming the customer entrance can accept the load.
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 office file & archive moves, prepare: numbered box inventory; manageable box weights; authorised release and receipt.
- 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.
Keep sensitive information under your procedures
Your organisation should decide what may be transported, who can release it and who receives it. Agree any special custody or handling requirement explicitly. This page does not promise a certified secure courier, records-management service or document destruction. Do not include confidential file contents in the public enquiry description.
Details needed for the transport discussion
- Box quantity, approximate sizes and any heavy loads.
- Collection and receiving contacts authorised by the organisation.
- Stairs, lifts, loading access and intended archive room.
