Use an item list instead of a house-size estimate
Walk through each room and list only the belongings included in the move. Specify quantities where similar chairs, shelves or boxes remain behind. Mark selected pieces consistently, and have someone available who can resolve questions. Do not rely on vague instructions such as taking “about half” of a room.
Plan part-house moves around your Shipston-on-Stour access
For a Shipston-on-Stour move, distinguish the property entrance from a meeting point at Mill Street or Telegraph Street. Give the carrying distance from the proposed stopping place, photographs of any steps and the largest furniture dimensions. For a CV36 address outside the town centre, include the full postcode and driveway approach so the move is planned for the actual property.
Separate the tenancy or key handover deadline from your preferred arrival time. Label each person’s belongings and identify items that should remain in a shared house.
- Identify the property door and lawful stopping point separately; a Mill Street car park reference is not a loading instruction.
- For part-house moves, prepare: a selected removal list; clear stay-or-go labels; destination for every item.
Resolve destinations before loading
If some furniture is going to family and the rest to a new home, number the stops and label each item accordingly. Separate donations, sales and unwanted items that you are arranging yourself. This transport enquiry does not include waste clearance. Report additions before the booking so capacity and carrying time can be reviewed.
Prepare the selected load
- Keep boxes for the move separate from boxes staying in the property.
- Record dimensions of the large pieces included.
- Name a contact who can confirm what is authorised to leave.
Your Shipston-on-Stour enquiry checklist
- For part-house moves, have these details ready: a selected removal list; clear stay-or-go labels; destination for every item.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. CV36 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.
