Do not judge the job by mileage alone
Time can be spent carrying furniture down stairs, walking boxes to a loading point and placing items in the new home. List the complete load and explain both properties. A short route does not establish the vehicle size or number of trips; those need to match the inventory and available access.
Plan local home moves at your Churchdown address
For a Churchdown home, state the street and house number as well as the postcode. Describe drive use, street loading, stairs and the distance to the doorway so vehicle proximity is not assumed.
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 local home moves, prepare: full postcodes at both ends; complete load and access; keys and receiving arrangements.
- Distinguish Brookfield, St John’s and the exact premises. Confirm whether the vehicle may use a drive, managed entrance or agreed street position and who can authorise it.
Coordinate the two doorways
Make sure collection access and new-home access overlap with the agreed plan. If your move depends on a completion or tenancy handover, explain that uncertainty. Keep personal essentials separate even when the destination is nearby. Do not add a second trip on the assumption it is included because the homes are close.
Prepare your local move request
- Give both full addresses or postcodes rather than “just around the corner”.
- Explain proposed loading positions and any shared drives.
- Confirm whether everything moves together or selected items travel separately.
