Build the route before agreeing appointments
Number each seller, give the postcode and describe the item waiting there. Record earliest and latest access times, not just a preferred arrival. The route may need to change if a seller is unavailable or an item is larger than expected. Do not commit every seller to the same collection time.
Plan multiple seller collections 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.
- For multiple seller collections, prepare: numbered collection stops; items assigned to each seller; compatible access windows.

Consider what is on the vehicle at each stage
A large final collection must fit alongside the items already loaded. List dimensions and anything needing special protection. Explain whether any furniture should be delivered before the other collections. Extra mileage, waiting and changes to the route need to be agreed in the price and booking scope.
Keep each handover organised
- Confirm that each purchase is complete and ready to release.
- Have a reliable contact for each collection point.
- Update the transport request if a purchase falls through or another item is added.
