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 Leek address
For small office moves involving Leek, give the full ST13 address and the exact entrance. Use Leek, Staffordshire and the complete ST13 address; distinguish the town property from the wider Staffordshire Moorlands or similarly named premises. Identify the precise stone-town, residential, business or rural entrance and record narrow streets, gradients, gates, surface, carrying distance and lawful loading access.
Check Staffordshire County Council's roadworks map, traffic regulation orders, parking guidance and any required temporary traffic-management 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 Leek 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.
A practical small-office brief
- The furniture inventory and an estimated count of packed boxes.
- The access window, floors, lifts and loading location.
- Any required priority order or assembly request.
Your Leek enquiry checklist
- For small office moves, have these details ready: workstation and furniture list; prepared it and boxed contents; authorised building contacts.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. ST13 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.
