Choose before you pack
Compare beds, sofas, tables and appliances against the space available. Mark duplicate furniture you are selling, storing or leaving behind. The removal inventory should show the final choices, not every item currently owned. Give dimensions of the selected large pieces and identify any dismantling needed.
Plan moving in together at the Ellesmere address
For moving in together involving Ellesmere, give the full SY12 address and the exact entrance. Use Ellesmere, Shropshire and the complete SY12 address; distinguish the town and property from the wider meres area and other places or organisations named Ellesmere. Identify the actual waterside, town-centre, residential or rural entrance and record narrow approaches, signed restrictions, gates, surfaces and a lawful vehicle position.
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 moving in together, prepare: a keep-list from each home; both collection addresses; space and access at the new home.
- Name the actual Ellesmere entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Coordinate two collections and one delivery
List the homes in a proposed sequence with full postcodes and access times. Note different key-return deadlines and who will be present at each collection. Label boxes by final room, while keeping the source home identifiable if needed. Both loads must fit the agreed vehicle plan rather than being treated as unrelated small jobs.
Decisions to make before enquiring
- Which furniture will actually move into the shared home.
- Whether any item needs a separate family or storage destination.
- Who can approve the combined inventory and booking details.
Your Ellesmere enquiry checklist
- For moving in together, have these details ready: a keep-list from each home; both collection addresses; space and access at the new home.

- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
