Check the Christchurch building's furniture entrance
For a Christchurch apartment collection, ask which entrance should be used for large items and whether a lift appointment is needed.
Measure the corridor and final doorway as well as the lift. If the stairs are the only workable route for a piece, tell support before booking so the chosen loading assistance reflects that fact.
Send a usable access brief
- Photograph the narrowest doorway, gate or stair turn alongside the item dimensions.
- Describe the legal loading position and the complete carrying route.
- Confirm any preparation and the person responsible for opening shared or controlled access.
Check the destination too. A piece that leaves the old home easily may need different preparation or handling at the receiving property.
Check the local arrangements
For the Christchurch address, use BCP parking restrictions as a starting point for the current street requirements. Confirm that the guidance covers the actual location and proposed use; it does not grant private-building access.
