Include the smaller rooms and outdoor spaces
Add cots, toy storage, desks, bikes and garden furniture to the main room list. Explain which beds need dismantling and whether they will be ready before collection. Label boxes by destination room, particularly where bedrooms have similar furniture. Do not pack essential items into an unmarked mixed load.
Plan family home moves at the Shrewsbury address
For family home moves involving Shrewsbury, give the full SY1 address and the exact entrance. Use Shrewsbury, Shropshire and the complete SY1 address; distinguish the property from a general town-centre, riverside or wider county destination. Identify the exact street and entrance within or beyond the river loop, including one-way routes, timed restrictions, pedestrian areas, floor level, carrying distance and lawful loading access.
Check Shropshire Council's interactive roadworks map, current closures and any required temporary restriction process and all current street signs close to the booked date. A postcode does not establish permission, vehicle suitability or a safe handover point; agree private access with the property contact and arrange any required council permission separately.
- For family home moves, prepare: whole-household inventory; essential belongings kept aside; receiving rooms clearly labelled.
- Name the actual Shrewsbury entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Keep the carrying route clear
Arrange a separate space for children and pets while furniture is being carried. Keep keys, personal documents and first-night essentials with you. At the new home, have an adult contact who can direct room placement without blocking the entrance. Requested priority items should be discussed before loading starts.
