Count and measure every package
Use a separate line for each package size, with the quantity of identical cartons. Measure the sealed box rather than the unpacked product. Add protective packaging before weighing.
Explain the contents accurately, especially batteries, liquids, breakable items or anything temperature-sensitive. Acceptance is checked before transport is agreed.
Plan parcel & boxed goods around your Great Malvern access
Great Malvern freight requests should describe the gradient and surface at the actual unloading point, plus gate width and turning space. Tail-lift suitability depends on the load and site conditions, not proximity to a town landmark. Name the receiving business and goods entrance and confirm equipment before the journey is agreed.
Record length, width, height and gross weight in the packed condition. Confirm the vehicle approach, handling equipment and receiving arrangements at both ends independently.
- Record Great Malvern's full address and actual gradient or steps; a landmark or postcode district is not a loading plan.
- For parcel & boxed goods, prepare: number of cartons; dimensions and weight per carton; packaging and contents.
Make the packages ready for handover
Use packaging suitable for the goods and handling journey. Keep individual boxes identifiable and let the team know if all packages must arrive together.
Tell us whether collection is from a home, shop or warehouse, and if a sender needs a release reference. Do not enter payment details or sensitive documents in the enquiry.
Your Great Malvern enquiry checklist
- For parcel & boxed goods, have these details ready: number of cartons; dimensions and weight per carton; packaging and contents.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. Use the property’s complete postcode, not a single district as a proxy for Great Malvern.
- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
- Check the quote’s supplier, price, inclusions and booking terms before confirming.
