Fit a Shawlands collection to the receiving entrance

If a Shawlands move ends at a building with controlled access, secure the receiving contact before booking collection. Tell the team which doors, stairs or lifts are involved at both ends.

Keep any fixed handover appointment visible in the enquiry. A supposedly quieter weekday will not help if unloading cannot start when the vehicle reaches the destination.

Put the fixed appointments in order

  1. Confirm when the load will be ready, including any furniture preparation.
  2. Record the collection access window and the latest agreed property handover.
  3. Confirm receiving keys, building appointments and any extra stop before choosing transport.

A preferred time is not a confirmed appointment. Tell support about any uncertain key release or restricted access window before booking.

Check the local arrangements

For the Shawlands address, use Shawlands 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.
