Count the complete working space
List desks, chairs, cabinets, meeting furniture and boxed files. Include shared equipment and items in store cupboards. Identify furniture staying behind or being replaced. Give dimensions of large desks and explain any dismantling required. Staff numbers are useful context but cannot define the transport load on their own.
Plan small office moves at the Craven Arms address
For small office moves involving Craven Arms, give the full SY7 address and the exact entrance. Use Craven Arms, Shropshire and the complete SY7 address; distinguish the town destination from the wider south Shropshire area and similarly named premises. Identify the exact town, business or rural entrance, including lane width, gradients, surface, gates, railway-side constraints, carrying distance and safe turning space.
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 small office moves, prepare: workstation and furniture list; prepared it and boxed contents; authorised building contacts.
- Name the actual Craven Arms entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Set preparation and receiving responsibilities
Choose contacts who can authorise collection and direct room placement. Arrange IT shutdown, disconnection and data handling through your own staff or provider. Confirm loading access and moving hours with both buildings. Transport does not automatically include installation, reconnecting systems or guaranteeing uninterrupted business operations.
