Build the window from the people who open the route and the time the complete load is ready. Supply fixed building and handover dependencies before choosing the setup.

Prepare delicate and awkward pieces before release
Confirm how pictures, mirrors and furniture will be packed or prepared and who completes that work. Have the full inventory ready in the travelling condition described in the booking.
Check the largest piece through outside landings and internal turns with the property-route guide. Resolve preparation early so the agreed collection period covers a ready load.
Confirm who admits the team through shared spaces
Ask the occupier or manager who opens the relevant gate and shared entrance and when access is available. Maintain the agreed building security arrangements during the move.
Where a lift appointment or protection requirement applies, obtain it from the manager and include the carry before and after the lift. The building-manager checklist develops those enquiries.
Connect entry with the receiving property
Confirm when the recipient has keys and can open the actual delivery route. Use the loading guide to resolve each road position separately from private admission.
Give the booking team all fixed appointments, outside levels and complete carries. The arrival terms explain estimated arrival; the London scheduling guide provides the wider method for connecting dependencies.
Prepared pictures and two entry contacts share one plan
Illustrative example: a customer prepares a Camberwell desk-and-picture collection reached by outside steps and a shared door. The occupier confirms admission while the recipient confirms when the delivery entrance opens.
The customer supplies both periods and any fixed manager appointment before choosing the booking. If packing or receiving keys changes, support receives the revised sequence for review.
Keep a preparation-to-keys schedule
- Ready packing, furniture and complete inventory.
- Gate and shared-door admission periods.
- Any manager-confirmed lift or protection arrangement.
- Lawful positions and both full carries.
- Receiving keys, fixed dependencies and current plan.
Use Camberwell preparation for labels, parts and final handover checks.
Common questions
Does a lift booking cover the whole carrying period?
Include the work before and after the lift and confirm the manager’s actual conditions, alongside the receiving property’s keys.
Who should be ready at a shared entrance?
Arrange an occupier or authorised contact who can admit the team through the relevant door or gate while maintaining the agreed security arrangements.
