Describe the property’s real entrance
Explain whether access is through a shared doorway, courtyard, rear entrance or internal corridor. Give the floor and any lift details. Ask the building contact about moving hours and controlled doors. A street-facing address does not necessarily identify the entrance through which furniture can be carried.
Plan town-centre moving access at the Telford address
For town-centre moving access involving Telford, give the full TF3 address and the exact entrance. Use Telford, Shropshire and the complete TF3 address; distinguish the actual town-centre, estate, business park or residential district rather than treating Telford as one undifferentiated destination. Identify the named building and correct access road, service yard or residential entrance, with gate instructions, height or weight limits, carrying distance and a safe handover point.
Check Telford & Wrekin Council's roadworks information, traffic regulation orders and any required temporary order 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 town-centre moving access, prepare: correct entrance and contact; checked loading arrangements; access hours and carrying route.
- Name the actual Telford entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Coordinate loading with the handover
Check current loading restrictions with the appropriate authority or property manager, then share the confirmed arrangements. Include any time window that depends on a shop, landlord or building staff. Traffic and public access can affect a proposed plan, so arrival times and waiting arrangements need explicit discussion before booking.
Helpful information for assessment
- The entrance to use and how it is opened.
- The suitable loading position, distance and any narrow approach.
- Furniture sizes and difficult turns inside the property.
Your Telford enquiry checklist
