Describe what needs protection
List glass, ceramics, screens, precision parts or other vulnerable elements and their packed dimensions and weight. State whether the load must remain upright or cannot be stacked.
A fragile label alone does not replace appropriate packaging. Ask who is responsible for protection and whether the proposed service is suitable for the goods.
Plan fragile freight enquiries at your Churchdown address
For Churchdown pallets or heavy goods, describe the surface and working space at the exact goods entrance. Confirm tail-lift or forklift requirements at collection and delivery separately.
Measure goods as they will travel. Loading and unloading are separate arrangements; confirm the people, equipment and space at both addresses.
- For fragile freight enquiries, prepare: fragile parts identified; protective packaging; handling and cover agreed.
- Distinguish Brookfield, St John’s and the exact premises. Confirm whether the vehicle may use a drive, managed entrance or agreed street position and who can authorise it.
Agree the journey and responsibility
If you need limited handling or a dedicated vehicle, explain why. The team can review the route and transport request before confirming suitability.
Discuss declared value, applicable cover, exclusions and evidence requirements before booking. Do not assume unlimited insurance or specialist art handling.
