Describe the staircase as a route
Note straight flights, tight turns, low ceilings and doors opening onto landings. Explain whether the stairs are shared and whether there are rules about keeping them clear. A sofa or wardrobe can be limited by a turn rather than the stair width itself. Include measurements where possible instead of relying on “standard stairs”.
Plan stairs & upper-floor moves at your Chedworth address
At a Chedworth home, measure the route from each large item to the intended loading position. Record changes of level, steps and tight turns separately; the road distance alone does not show the carrying work.
Match the inventory to the carrying and preparation work. Tell us which items need help, whether packing or dismantling is requested, and who will provide access.
- For stairs & upper-floor moves, prepare: floor and number of flights; stair turns and landings; largest fixed item dimensions.
- A Chedworth postcode or landmark is not enough to define the final approach. Record the property entrance, gradient, steps, surface and place where the recipient will meet the vehicle.
Agree the handling before arrival
Identify heavy furniture, fragile parts and items needing dismantling. Say if you need all carrying provided. The number of movers must follow the assessed job, not the phrase man and van. If an item cannot be handled through the normal route, specialist arrangements are not automatically available or included.
Useful access details
- The floor at collection and the floor at delivery.
- The largest furniture dimensions and any removable parts.
