Count and measure every package
Use a separate line for each package size, with the quantity of identical cartons. Measure the sealed box rather than the unpacked product. Add protective packaging before weighing.
Explain the contents accurately, especially batteries, liquids, breakable items or anything temperature-sensitive. Acceptance is checked before transport is agreed.
Plan parcel & boxed goods at the Bilston address
For parcel & boxed goods involving Bilston, give the full WV14 address and the exact entrance. Use Bilston, City of Wolverhampton and the complete WV14 address; distinguish the town property from a general Wolverhampton, Black Country or similarly named industrial-estate destination. Identify the exact town-centre, terraced, industrial, canalside or residential entrance and record signed restrictions, bridge or weight constraints, floor level, carrying distance and lawful loading access.
Check City of Wolverhampton Council's road-management, traffic regulation, pavement-parking and highway-obstruction guidance 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 parcel & boxed goods, prepare: number of cartons; dimensions and weight per carton; packaging and contents.
- Name the actual Bilston entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Make the packages ready for handover
Use packaging suitable for the goods and handling journey. Keep individual boxes identifiable and let the team know if all packages must arrive together.
Tell us whether collection is from a home, shop or warehouse, and if a sender needs a release reference. Do not enter payment details or sensitive documents in the enquiry.
