Pack for the walk between property and vehicle
Where permit stretches and short-stay bays near the centre, with tighter kerb space around station-side developments applies, overfilled boxes become a time and handling problem. Keep weights sensible so items can move safely across longer approaches, shared entrances or stairs.
Label for staged unloading
station flats, terrace houses and family semis often require unloading in phases. Clear labels, grouped essentials and separate fragile cartons help the crew place items accurately without blocking access routes.
Protect items for stop-start loading
Use proper padding on furniture, secure smaller breakables and keep fixings bagged with the item they belong to. That is especially useful in Addlestone where loading may be broken up by gates, lifts or longer outdoor movement.
