Confirm more than your own availability
Check whether the seller, landlord, storage facility or building manager can provide access on the requested day. Some properties require a booked moving window or staff presence. Include any key-collection deadline and say which timings are fixed. A free day in your diary is not enough if the property cannot receive the load.
Plan weekend moving enquiries 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 weekend moving enquiries, prepare: preferred dates and alternatives; weekend access at both ends; complete inventory and preparation.
- 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.
Discuss the full weekend scope
Give the furniture and box list, carrying details and any packing or dismantling request. Ask for the price basis and included work to be confirmed for the chosen date. Do not assume that a weekday discussion reserves a weekend slot or that every weekend has the same availability.
Make the request easier to assess
- List a first-choice date and any acceptable alternative.
- Confirm both properties can open during the proposed window.
- State whether the date is dependent on keys or another delivery.
