Explain how the machine can be handled
Give the make or type, total mass, dimensions and manufacturer-provided handling information where available. Identify lifting points and any risk of movement or tipping.
Tell us if it contains fuel, oil, batteries or other materials needing review. Disconnecting, draining, dismantling and commissioning are not automatically included.
Plan machinery transport enquiries at the Whitchurch address
For machinery transport enquiries involving Whitchurch, give the full SY13 address and the exact entrance. Use Whitchurch, Shropshire and the complete SY13 address; distinguish it from Whitchurch in Hampshire and other places or premises with the same name. Identify the exact market-town, canalside, residential or rural entrance and record narrow approaches, gates, surface, carrying distance and safe turning space.
Check Shropshire Council's interactive roadworks map, current closures and any required temporary restriction process and all current street signs close to the booked date. A postcode does not establish permission, vehicle suitability or a safe handover point; agree private access with the property contact and arrange any required council permission separately.
- For machinery transport enquiries, prepare: weight and centre of gravity; lifting method; fluids and preparation.
- Name the actual Whitchurch entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Identify equipment at each end
A heavy machine may need lifting equipment or transport beyond a standard van or pallet service. State who provides equipment and appropriately trained operators.
Requests are reviewed individually; this page does not promise crane hire, machinery installation or hazardous-goods transport.
