Record the rigid dimensions
Measure the fixed frame, including protruding arms, legs or handles that will remain attached. If parts are removable, record both assembled dimensions and the largest prepared section. State the units clearly. A product name or seat count is not a reliable size description, particularly for second-hand purchases.
Plan furniture measuring guide at your Northway address
Northway includes homes, workplaces and managed premises with different entrances. Give the complete GL20 address, exact goods or furniture entrance, surface, access window and the person who can authorise the agreed handover point. Include the room-by-room inventory, stairs, carrying distance and any dismantling request. Check the Gloucestershire Highways maps for current or planned works on the booked date. This guidance does not grant loading permission, promise access or confirm availability.
Match the inventory to the carrying and preparation work. Tell us which items need help, whether packing or dismantling is requested, and who will provide access.

Check both ends of the journey
Measure clear door openings, corridor turns, stairs and lift cabins. Include height where an item must turn. The receiving home can be harder to enter than the seller’s property is to leave. Measurements support an assessment; they do not guarantee a fit where the route or construction remains uncertain.
