Pack for weight and traceability
Paper can become heavy quickly, so use suitable boxes and avoid oversized loads. Number the boxes and keep a private record of their destination. Identify shelves or cabinets separately and explain whether they will be emptied. Do not assume a loaded filing cabinet can be moved as one ordinary item.
Plan office file & archive moves around your Worcester access
For a Worcester move, identify the actual furniture exit and any stairs, lift or rear courtyard before choosing a loading position. City-centre loading bays have conditions; tell us if packing or dismantling would interrupt loading so the plan does not depend on treating a loading bay as all-day parking.
Assign a contact at each workplace, agree the goods or staff entrance and label assets by destination. Confirm loading, lift and building access separately from normal public opening hours.
- Check the specific loading bay, vehicle class and property access rather than relying on city-centre proximity.
- For office file & archive moves, prepare: numbered box inventory; manageable box weights; authorised release and receipt.
Keep sensitive information under your procedures
Your organisation should decide what may be transported, who can release it and who receives it. Agree any special custody or handling requirement explicitly. This page does not promise a certified secure courier, records-management service or document destruction. Do not include confidential file contents in the public enquiry description.
Details needed for the transport discussion
- Box quantity, approximate sizes and any heavy loads.
- Collection and receiving contacts authorised by the organisation.
- Stairs, lifts, loading access and intended archive room.
Your Worcester enquiry checklist
- For office file & archive moves, have these details ready: numbered box inventory; manageable box weights; authorised release and receipt.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. WR1 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.
