Check the construction with the owner
Ask whether the wardrobe is solid furniture, a modular system or flat-pack construction. Note sliding doors, mirrored panels and fixed backs. Previously assembled flat-pack furniture may not tolerate repeated dismantling. Explain its condition and supply the manufacturer or assembly instructions where available; suitability cannot be assumed from a photograph.
Plan wardrobe collection around your Rugby access
For a Rugby move, describe both properties and the loading position rather than using Railway Terrace or another car park as the home address. Give the key release time and any access booking separately. If only part of a house or office is moving, mark the items clearly so the vehicle and carrying plan match the real load.
Measure the item in its travel condition and the tightest doorway or turn. Ask the seller to confirm what can be dismantled and who will prepare it before collection.
- Identify the Rugby premises and receiving entrance separately from any parking landmark.
- For wardrobe collection, prepare: assembled and panel sizes; construction and mirror details; dismantling responsibility.
Allow for height when turning
Measure the route including ceiling height where the wardrobe must turn, not just the entrance opening. If it is to travel as panels, give the longest panel size and identify glass components. Empty the wardrobe and agree how shelves, rails and fittings will be packed. Dismantling and reassembly need an explicit agreement.
Your wardrobe collection checklist
- Confirm that the seller will release all doors, shelves and fittings.
- State whether it is empty and prepared to carry.
- Describe access to the final room, including stairs and tight corners.
Your Rugby enquiry checklist
- For wardrobe collection, have these details ready: assembled and panel sizes; construction and mirror details; dismantling responsibility.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. CV21 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.
