Choose the help you want to discuss
You may want help with a whole home, selected rooms or just the items you are least confident packing. Explain what you will prepare yourself and what you want included in the quote.
List fragile glass, artwork or unusually valuable belongings separately. Suitability and any specialist requirements need reviewing before a packing service is agreed.
Prepare for the route through your Cheltenham property
Pack for the carrying route as well as the journey. If your Cheltenham address involves shared stairs, a basement entrance or several doors between the room and the vehicle, keep packages manageable and identify fragile pieces clearly. Leave shared routes clear and set aside anything travelling separately.
Tell us which preparation you will complete and which work you want priced. Use photographs of the actual item and doorway where helpful; avoid including private paperwork in an image.
Materials and labelling matter
Ask who supplies boxes, protective materials and tape, and whether they are included in the quoted price. If using your own boxes, keep them sound, manageable in weight and suitable for the contents.
Label by destination room, with a short contents note. Keep a separate essentials box for your first night and carry personal documents, medication and valuables yourself.
Fit packing into the moving schedule
Tell us your preferred move date and when the property can be accessed for preparation. Do not assume packing happens on the same day as transport; the timing needs agreeing with the rest of the move.
For a Cheltenham flat, leave corridors and shared routes clear. Explain any items that cannot be packed until the last moment and identify contents that should stay at the property. Confirm all inclusions and exclusions before booking.
Your Cheltenham enquiry checklist
- For packing help, have these details ready: rooms needing help; fragile or unusual items; materials to discuss.
- 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.
