Measure a Hove flat beyond the lift doors
For a Hove apartment move, compare bulky furniture with the lift interior, corridor turns and final doorway. A piece fitting through the lift door may still fail at the landing.
Ask management about the usable furniture entrance and protect shared access as agreed. Tell support about the stair alternative before deciding on help or vehicle arrangements.
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 Hove address, use Hove parking reference 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.
