Measure the whole item
Include handles, protruding parts and the crate or protective packaging in the measurements. Give the weight of the heaviest piece as well as the total where the item separates into parts.
Identify glass, fragile panels, exposed moving parts or a need to keep the item upright. A vehicle with enough space may still need additional equipment or people to handle the load safely.
Plan bulky item delivery at your Bourton-on-the-Water address
For a pallet, crate or heavy parcel in Bourton-on-the-Water, identify usable space at the goods entrance and the surface on which the load will be handled. A public car park or pedestrian route should not be assumed suitable for unloading equipment.
Measure the goods as they will travel, including the base and wrapping. Loading and unloading are separate arrangements; confirm the people, equipment and space available at both addresses.
- For bulky item delivery, prepare: exact item size and weight; packaging and fragile parts; carrying or lifting requirements.
- Name the exact receiving premises and loading entrance, then agree who will meet the vehicle. Visitor parking, pedestrian routes and the goods handover are separate parts of the plan.
Agree the handover point
Tell us if the item is in a room, on an upper floor or already beside a loading bay. Freight transport does not automatically include dismantling, installation or room-of-choice delivery.
For furniture carrying, a house move or dismantling, use Movivio via the service links on this page. For a packed or crated load, explain the handling needed in your Freivio enquiry.
