Separate the components on the inventory
A divan may have two bases and a separate headboard; an ottoman can include a heavier lifting mechanism. Give the dimensions of the largest rigid part and say whether the frame is assembled. Identify mattresses separately, including quantity and condition. This is a transport enquiry for usable belongings, not a mattress-disposal booking.
Plan bed & mattress collection at the Church Stretton address
For bed & mattress collection involving Church Stretton, give the full SY6 address and the exact entrance. Use Church Stretton, Shropshire and the complete SY6 address; distinguish the premises from the wider Strettons, Long Mynd or general visitor destination. Identify the exact valley, hillside, town or rural approach, including gradients, lane width, signed limits, gates, surface and a safe stopping or turning point.
Check Shropshire Council's interactive roadworks map, current closures and any required temporary restriction 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 bed & mattress collection, prepare: frame and mattress sizes; bases, slats and fittings; preparation and assembly needs.
- Name the actual Church Stretton entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Keep the mattress and fittings protected
Agree suitable protective packaging before the day and keep surfaces clean and dry. Do not assume a mattress can be folded; check its instructions. Bag small fittings and label them for the correct frame. If you need the bed taken apart or reassembled, describe that work in the enquiry rather than leaving it until arrival.
Before collection is confirmed
- Check the route for the headboard and longest frame section.
- Confirm who prepares the bed and retains the fittings.
- Agree the receiving room and carrying help at delivery.
Your Church Stretton enquiry checklist
