Identify each item and its handling needs
Give a separate line to each type of equipment, the quantity, dimensions and known weight. Identify glass, loose parts, fragile components and items that cannot be tilted. Manufacturer handling instructions can help the discussion.
An ordinary furniture move does not automatically cover specialist machinery, safes, hazardous materials or unusually heavy equipment. Describe such items before making plans; suitable capability must be confirmed and the request may be declined.
Plan business equipment moves around your Fazeley access
A Fazeley move may involve a canal-facing home with its vehicle entrance on another side. Send the road address and a photograph or description of the carrying route, including gates, steps and shared paths. Keep boxes inside until the agreed loading position and crew are ready so access remains clear.
Describe the full inventory and which parts of the carrying, packing or dismantling you need included. A shorter journey can still involve substantial handling at each property.
- Identify the road entrance separately from any canal or waterside landmark.
- For business equipment moves, prepare: dimensions and known weights; preparation responsibilities; authorised access at both ends.
Agree who prepares the equipment
Have your responsible staff or qualified provider arrange any necessary shutdown, disconnection and securing of equipment. Electrical, plumbing, gas, IT migration and recommissioning work are not included by default in a transport enquiry.
For desks or shelving, explain whether they will be ready to carry or whether you want dismantling discussed. Label components and retain assembly instructions where available. Confirm preparation and reassembly responsibilities in the agreed scope.
Plan access around the workplace
Name the person who can authorise collection and the person receiving the items. Confirm building entry, loading appointments, lift capacity information and the route from the equipment to the vehicle.
If access depends on trading hours or a building manager, include the available windows. Phased or out-of-hours work can be requested, but must be checked and agreed; no uninterrupted-operation promise is made.
Keep the quote and handover specific
List what is to move, where it is going and what the recipient expects on arrival. Keep business-sensitive records and credentials under your organisation’s control; transport arrangements do not replace your own data or asset procedures.
Before booking, confirm the inventory, handling method, crew, transport scope, timing, applicable cover and exclusions. Use the free enquiry form to start this discussion without paying or reserving a vehicle.
Your Fazeley enquiry checklist
- For business equipment moves, have these details ready: dimensions and known weights; preparation responsibilities; authorised access at both ends.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. B78 is a location reference, not the whole service area.
- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
- Check the quote’s supplier, price, inclusions and booking terms before confirming.
