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 the Burntwood address
For office file & archive moves involving Burntwood, give the full WS7 address and the exact entrance. Use Burntwood, Staffordshire and the complete WS7 address; distinguish the named district, estate or premises from a broad Cannock or Lichfield-area reference. Identify the actual residential, business or rural entrance and record access roads, gates, surface, carrying distance, signed restrictions and safe turning space.
Check Staffordshire County Council's roadworks map, traffic regulation orders, parking guidance and any required temporary traffic-management 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 office file & archive moves, prepare: numbered box inventory; manageable box weights; authorised release and receipt.
- Name the actual Burntwood entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
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.
Your Burntwood enquiry checklist
