Plan the receiving window
For a workplace or managed building, confirm the receiving hours and any entry requirements. Separate a preferred delivery time from a strict deadline.
A complete collection brief
Add item dimensions, estimated weight, floor and lift details, parking arrangements and your preferred date. Photos can clarify awkward shapes and access.
Before confirmation
Final availability, safe handling and road-distance eligibility must be checked. The current quote is an interactive estimate and does not dispatch a driver.

Talk about your moveDoes a Preston postcode guarantee coverage?
No. The 80-mile operating limit is based on road distance, and the exact collection and delivery route matters. We confirm the actual collection and delivery route before accepting the booking.
What details help with a local quote?
Both addresses, an item list with measurements, access and parking information, the date and any help you need.
Can I move between towns?
Yes, describe both ends of the journey. Being in a listed town does not confirm the availability or eligibility of every destination.
