Describe the pallet as it will travel
Measure the complete loaded pallet, including the base, wrapping and anything extending beyond its edges. Give length, width and height in centimetres and the gross weight in kilograms. For pallets with different sizes, add a separate line for each size.
Tell us what is inside, whether anything is fragile, whether the load is secure and if another pallet can safely go above it. A description such as “one pallet” is not enough to choose a vehicle or handling method.
Plan pallet delivery around your Kidderminster access
For Kidderminster freight, give the business unit and goods-in entrance as well as the full postcode. Confirm gross pallet weights, unloading equipment and the receiving contact. A neighbouring visitor car park is not a freight yard; ask the premises operator where the vehicle can stop and turn before choosing its size.
Record length, width, height and gross weight in the packed condition. Confirm the vehicle approach, handling equipment and receiving arrangements at both ends independently.
- Distinguish the property or goods entrance from a nearby car park, and measure the final carrying route.
- For pallet delivery, prepare: packed pallet dimensions; gross weight including pallet; loading at both addresses.
Collection and delivery need separate plans
A forklift at the collection warehouse does not solve unloading at a home address. Tell us about equipment at both ends and request a tail lift where needed. Equipment capacity and suitability must be confirmed for the actual load.
Do not assume pallet delivery includes carrying items indoors, upstairs or across gravel. Describe the surface, gradients and doorway access; agree the handover point before booking.
Your Kidderminster enquiry checklist
- For pallet delivery, have these details ready: packed pallet dimensions; gross weight including pallet; loading at both addresses.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. DY10 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.
