Moving in Elwood
Plan the path through shared entrances
For a flat or apartment move, check the full route from your front door to the truck. A sofa may fit through the apartment door but still need to turn on a communal landing. Measure awkward pieces and tight corners, and ask the building manager about moving hours or lift bookings. If the truck cannot stop outside, estimate the carrying distance and include it in your enquiry.
Choose the service for your load
For a household move, include boxes, furniture and items outside the main living areas. For a smaller load, list each piece and its dimensions so the team can discuss a suitable moving option.
- Household and furniture moves — plan the load and handling at both addresses.
- Office moves — identify desks, storage and equipment, and discuss access hours.
- Piano removals and pool table moves — send details of the item and access for a specialist assessment.
