A quote for your actual household
Start with the furniture in each room and an approximate box count. Add the contents of the garage, loft, shed and garden if they are coming too. This is more useful than bedroom count alone and helps the quote reflect the load you actually need moved.
For a part-house move, list only the items that are leaving. Keep any sale, donation or separate collection clearly marked so it is not confused with the removal inventory.
Two Cheltenham addresses need two access plans
A short journey within Cheltenham can still involve more carrying than a longer journey between accessible homes. Describe the collection and destination separately: the floor, stairs, lift, shared doors and distance from a suitable loading position. Include anything in an outbuilding or separate garage.
For a completion-dependent move, distinguish the planned departure from the earliest confirmed access to the new home. Keep an essentials bag with you and agree waiting arrangements while the date is being confirmed.
Moving around a key handover
If your move depends on completion or a tenancy handover, give the expected departure and entry times. Explain any uncertainty so the plan can account for it. A provisional enquiry is welcome, but a date is only reserved once a booking is confirmed.
Before booking, confirm the inventory, crew, price, packing requests, applicable cover and waiting-time arrangements. Tell us if your load or access changes.
Your Cheltenham enquiry checklist
- For house removals, have these details ready: room-by-room inventory; access at both homes; keys and moving date.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. GL50 is a location reference, not the whole service area.
- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
- Check the quote’s supplier, price, inclusions and booking terms before confirming.
