Choose before you pack
Compare beds, sofas, tables and appliances against the space available. Mark duplicate furniture you are selling, storing or leaving behind. The removal inventory should show the final choices, not every item currently owned. Give dimensions of the selected large pieces and identify any dismantling needed.
Plan moving in together at the Burton upon Trent address
For moving in together involving Burton upon Trent, give the full DE14 address and the exact entrance. Use the full name Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire and the complete DE14 address; do not rely on Burton alone or a general town-centre reference. Identify the exact town-centre, industrial, business or residential entrance and record bridge approaches, one-way streets, timed controls, floor level, carrying distance and lawful loading access.
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 moving in together, prepare: a keep-list from each home; both collection addresses; space and access at the new home.
- Name the actual Burton upon Trent entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Coordinate two collections and one delivery
List the homes in a proposed sequence with full postcodes and access times. Note different key-return deadlines and who will be present at each collection. Label boxes by final room, while keeping the source home identifiable if needed. Both loads must fit the agreed vehicle plan rather than being treated as unrelated small jobs.
Decisions to make before enquiring
- Which furniture will actually move into the shared home.
- Whether any item needs a separate family or storage destination.
- Who can approve the combined inventory and booking details.
Your Burton upon Trent enquiry checklist
