Stockwell moving preparation guide

Confirm your complete travelling selection

List furniture, bags, suitcases, boxes and all loose accessories. Identify belongings staying in the home and resolve uncertainty over shared or property contents with the relevant person. Include goods in cupboards and other agreed storage spaces before settling the load.

Use the room-to-room quote brief to settle prepared dimensions, all stops, access and selected help. Confirm receiving keys and the intended room before relying on collection.

Label sections and keep the handover kit available

Complete agreed furniture preparation, label bed sections or panels and keep fixings identified with the correct item. Pack loose belongings securely and declare delicate or unusually heavy goods. Keep any eligible optional task at an agreed moving stop separately agreed.

Retain keys, fobs, phone, relevant documents and the items needed for final property checks outside the load. The rental handover checklist helps organise collection, final records and key return.

Reconfirm the actual exit and both contacts

Make sure the opening contact can maintain the actual room route, recessed door, outside steps or managed shared access throughout collection. Keep packed goods out of stairs, entrances and escape routes. Reconfirm lawful loading and private admission separately.

At delivery, confirm keys, the accepted carrying route and final-room space. Use the moving and keyholder timeline to align both sides with fixed access and checkout limits. Confirm carrying help for the stepped collection and complete receiving route, arranging sufficient people at both ends with customer loading and unloading. Give support fixed checkout, key and building limits before booking and allow for checks, remaining preparation, both carries, loading, all stops, travel, unloading and final placement before separate property checks and key return.

The suitcase stays listed and the keys stay accessible

Hypothetical example: a Stockwell tenant labels prepared bed parts and boxes and adds the suitcase to the shared moving list. They retain the key-return kit and confirm the actual stepped exit.

The collection contact checks the whole room selection before departure, while the recipient uses the same list after final-room delivery. The property handover follows its separately agreed arrangement.

Complete room release and receiving checks

At collection, identify all agreed goods, sections and fixings and report a difference before loading. Check the listed room and storage spaces before departure, maintaining access until the load has left.

At delivery, provide authorised admission through unloading and final placement, then reconcile the inventory and parts. Raise any issue through booking support. FMMV allocates a suitable vetted provider after booking according to requirements and availability.
