Make a package-level inventory
A single product may arrive in several boxes of different sizes. Record the quantity, length, width, depth and published weight where available. Include rails, glass packs and fittings cartons. If several products are being collected, group the packages by product so missing pieces are easier for you to identify.
Plan flat-pack furniture transport at the Broseley address
For flat-pack furniture transport involving Broseley, give the full TF12 address and the exact entrance. Use Broseley, Shropshire and the complete TF12 address; distinguish the premises from wider Ironbridge Gorge or Telford-area references. Identify the precise residential, business or rural entrance, including slopes, narrow streets, gates, surface, signed restrictions and safe turning space.
Check Shropshire Council's interactive roadworks map, current closures and any required temporary restriction process and all current street signs close to the booked date. A postcode does not establish permission, vehicle suitability or a safe handover point; agree private access with the property contact and arrange any required council permission separately.
- For flat-pack furniture transport, prepare: total package count; longest and heaviest cartons; carrying route to the room.
- Name the actual Broseley entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Protect the panels and plan access
Long cartons may need more turning room than expected, particularly on stairs or in a lift. Describe any damaged packaging and ask about suitable protection before collection. Keep boxes dry and do not unpack solely to save space without discussing the handling implications. Furniture assembly is separate from transport unless agreed.
Give the quote the right starting point
- Use the retailer’s package information where it is available.
- Identify both collection access and the destination floor.
- Say whether boxes should be left together in one room or split between rooms.
