Putney moving-day scheduling

Agree readiness and release through the last carry

Ask when the sofa and every accompanying piece will be prepared, who releases them and whether a fixed seller or room-clearance deadline applies. Confirm the opening contact remains available for checking, any agreed preparation and carrying through the shared entrance.

Include each further pickup with its full goods, contact and opening or facility period. A proposed vehicle arrival is not the time at which all the seller’s goods will already be loaded.

Match street use and private access periods

Use the position-and-entrance record to confirm the actual vehicle arrangement and separate building admission. Check any permitted-lift or moving appointment and whether its limit concerns entry or completed use.

Have the recipient confirm receiving keys, their own furniture route and any fixed building period. Resolve missing contacts or incompatible appointments before choosing the transport window.

Review all work into the final room

Connect checking, preparation, both carries, loading, every stop, travel, unloading and final placement. With customer loading and unloading, arrange sufficient people for the complete sofa and accompanying goods at both ends.

Give all fixed seller, keyholder, building or facility limits to support before booking. Arrival terms concern pickup arrangements, not completed delivery. Use London scheduling guidance to review the whole dependency chain.

The recipient’s key appointment follows a fixed seller release

Illustrative example: a Putney seller has a fixed release period for a prepared sofa, while the recipient obtains keys at a separate appointment. The sofa still needs its shared-door carry and loading before travel.

The customer gives both limits and the full property routes before booking. They confirm who remains available at each end and discuss any conflicting periods rather than relying on driving time alone.

Keep a seller-to-recipient sequence

• Prepared goods, release person and fixed seller deadline.
• Actual vehicle-use and private-admission periods.
• Every extra stop and its opening contact.
• Receiving keys, final-room route and building limits.
• All work through placement, chosen help and conflicts.

Use it in the purchase handover plan.
