Separate your own load from new deliveries
List the belongings coming from your current address, then list purchases awaiting collection elsewhere. Retailer deliveries are separate unless you request and agree transport for them. Measure furniture against the room and entrance before buying it. Avoid assuming that everything advertised as flat-pack fits in a car.
Plan first-home moving guide at your Prestbury address
Prestbury includes period streets, residential properties and business or community premises with different access. Give the complete GL52 address, exact entrance, steps or surfaces, permitted vehicle position and receiving contact. 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.

Treat keys as a practical dependency
Ask when you will receive keys and who can authorise access. If the date is not settled, use a provisional enquiry and state what is still unknown. Plan a first-night box and keep paperwork with you. Confirm vehicle, crew, preparation, price and booking terms before treating the move as reserved.
Your first enquiry can be simple
- Both postcodes and a preferred or provisional date.
