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 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.
- 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.
