Check the construction with the owner
Ask whether the wardrobe is solid furniture, a modular system or flat-pack construction. Note sliding doors, mirrored panels and fixed backs. Previously assembled flat-pack furniture may not tolerate repeated dismantling. Explain its condition and supply the manufacturer or assembly instructions where available; suitability cannot be assumed from a photograph.
Plan wardrobe collection at the Craven Arms address
For wardrobe collection 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 wardrobe collection, prepare: assembled and panel sizes; construction and mirror details; dismantling responsibility.
- Name the actual Craven Arms entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Allow for height when turning
Measure the route including ceiling height where the wardrobe must turn, not just the entrance opening. If it is to travel as panels, give the longest panel size and identify glass components. Empty the wardrobe and agree how shelves, rails and fittings will be packed. Dismantling and reassembly need an explicit agreement.
Your wardrobe collection checklist
- Confirm that the seller will release all doors, shelves and fittings.
