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 Shurdington address
Shurdington includes homes, workplaces and community premises with different entrances. Give the complete GL51 address, exact furniture or goods entrance, steps or lift, surface, carrying distance, lawful vehicle position and the contact who can authorise the handover. Record packed length, width, height and gross weight, plus tail-lift or forklift needs separately at collection and delivery. Check the Gloucestershire Highways maps for current or planned works on the booked date. This guidance does not grant loading permission, promise access or confirm availability.
Measure goods as they will travel. Loading and unloading are separate arrangements; confirm the people, equipment and space at both addresses.

Agree the handover point
