At a Peckham Hill Street conversion, the building frontage and the door serving your flat can be different parts of the job. Confirm the actual route and compare the largest prepared section with every opening and turn from room to vehicle.

Measure the prepared desk and identify fragile pieces
Agree how furniture travels, who prepares it and how removed parts and fixings stay labelled. Record the largest section including projections, and describe the framed mirror’s dimensions and protection separately.
Use the furniture handling checklist to prepare the information. Discuss unusual weight, fragility or a piece needing specialist assessment before selecting the booking setup.
Measure the actual front area, shared door and level changes
Southwark’s historic Peckham Hill Street appraisal describes varied front boundaries, conversion flats and buildings with basements. At your address, obtain the current furniture route and identify the opening contact.
Measure the gate, path turn, outside steps, shared door and any stair landing serving the actual collection room. Explain separately held goods and their additional route. Do not choose an entrance or floor from the historic building description.
Check alternative routes and the final room independently
Where a lift is relevant, confirm permission and compare the door, cabin and corridor with the prepared section. If a piece uses stairs, give that permitted route and its landings for assessment instead of describing the box route alone.
Repeat the check from delivery vehicle position to final room, confirming receiving keys and selected help. With customer loading and unloading, arrange sufficient people for all relevant routes at both ends. The building checklist helps organise remaining admission questions.
The desk and stored boxes follow different internal routes
Illustrative example: a Peckham conversion-flat customer measures the prepared desk through the landing and front boundary, while boxes in another room need an additional stair carry.
Both routes and their opening contacts go into the booking brief. The mirror’s preparation and receiving-room fit are checked independently, with any unresolved turn discussed before collection.
Keep an item-and-level route sheet
- Prepared dimensions, fragile pieces and preparation owner.
- Current flat entrance, front boundary and opening contact.
- Every relevant level, step, door and landing turn.
- Different routes for separately held goods or bulky pieces.
- Receiving-room fit, vehicle carries and selected help.
Attach it to the room-and-route quote and admission record, with London access guidance.
Common questions
Can I describe the route used by boxes for every item?
Check the prepared furniture separately and describe its permitted route, including any different stairs or turns.
Does the Peckham Hill Street appraisal establish my flat entrance?
Confirm the current layout and permitted door with the occupier or authorised building contact, then measure that actual route.
