Maryhill Moving Guide – How to Prepare for Move Day

Prepare a Maryhill close for a flat departure

For a move through a shared close, begin with your flat's inventory and the floor from which it leaves. Check the route down the stairs and through the final entrance. Tell the man and van team about landing turns, controlled doors and any external steps, rather than describing the address only as a flat.

Make the handover work without blocking neighbours

Keep packed boxes inside your property until loading starts. Arrange access through each controlled door and keep the shared stair usable. Identify a lawful stopping position and describe the carry from the close to it. If a different entrance is proposed, confirm permission before using it.

Retain the keys until collection is complete

Coordinate tenancy handover so the team is not locked out while belongings remain upstairs. Send the destination floor and entry arrangements with the booking, and select the loading help required at both ends. Discuss the actual route if it enters Glasgow's low-emission zone; that vehicle check does not reserve a loading space.
