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 Blockley address
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.
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.
- 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.
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.
