Turn a lot description into transport details
An auction catalogue may list the object size rather than its packed dimensions. Ask the auctioneer whether the lot is crated, on a pallet or loose, and obtain the gross weight. Confirm exactly which pieces are included.
Explain whether the auction site supplies a forklift or requires the buyer to arrange all lifting. Enter the collection reference only after checking that the goods are authorised for release.
Plan auction freight collections at your Chedworth address
For a Chedworth furniture purchase, ask the seller for travel dimensions and the actual exit route. Confirm the collection-ready time and who will open the property before arranging the onward delivery.
Measure goods as they will travel. Loading and unloading are separate arrangements; confirm the people, equipment and space at both addresses.
- For auction freight collections, prepare: auction release deadline; lot dimensions and weight; loading appointment.
- A Chedworth postcode or landmark is not enough to define the final approach. Record the property entrance, gradient, steps, surface and place where the recipient will meet the vehicle.
Keep the deadline visible
Add the last permitted collection date and booked loading slot to the enquiry. Auction storage charges and the transport booking are separate arrangements.
Do not rely on a submitted enquiry to meet an auction deadline. Confirm vehicle availability and the collection plan before committing to the appointment.
