Pimlico moving costs and quote preparation

Set out the complete prepared load

List furniture, boxes and every removable part or accessory. Give the dimensions of the largest travelling section and reliable weight information where available. Declare particularly heavy, fragile or specialist pieces before choosing the booking setup.

Agree the travelling condition and who prepares each piece. A bed frame and cabinet may need separate preparation notes. Add any extra collection or delivery explicitly, with its own goods, contact and property route.

Describe the actual Pimlico building route

The 2022 neighbourhood-plan examination describes square-fronting houses with basements and separately records the taller flats at Tachbrook Estate. At your address, identify the actual main hall, lower-ground door or agreed service entrance used for furniture.

Trace the room-to-street route through outside steps, communal stairs, landings and corridors. If a lift is proposed, confirm permitted use and measurements. Building scale alone does not establish a workable route. Use the furniture-route sheet to record the demanding stages.

Include admission and the full delivery carry

Give the person who opens the collection route and any confirmed moving period or shared-area preparation. At delivery, record receiving keys, the entrance, stairs or permitted lift and the final room. Ask the recipient to check the same largest prepared section.

Select help for both complete carries. If choosing customer loading, arrange your own people at both ends. Include all stops, access and agreed work with the pricing inputs, rather than comparing quotes from the furniture list alone.

A bed frame uses the agreed lower-ground door

Hypothetical example: a Pimlico customer moves prepared bed sections, a cabinet and boxes from a square-fronting flat. The occupier confirms the furniture door and records outside steps separately from the communal stair.

The recipient checks the cabinet through the receiving hallway and arranges keys. The quote describes both full routes, with an opening contact and selected help for the actual load.

Keep a room-to-street quote record

• Complete load and agreed prepared dimensions.
• Actual flat, block and furniture entrance.
• Outside steps, communal stairs, corridors and permitted lift.
• Lawful vehicle position and receiving-room route.
• Admission contacts, fixed periods, stops and chosen help.

Use London quote preparation for the wider comparison and settle street and building admission separately.
