Explain how the machine can be handled
Give the make or type, total mass, dimensions and manufacturer-provided handling information where available. Identify lifting points and any risk of movement or tipping.
Tell us if it contains fuel, oil, batteries or other materials needing review. Disconnecting, draining, dismantling and commissioning are not automatically included.
Plan machinery transport enquiries at your Prestbury address
Prestbury includes period streets, residential properties and business or community premises with different access. Give the complete GL52 address, exact entrance, steps or surfaces, permitted vehicle position and receiving contact. Record packed length, width, height and gross weight, plus tail-lift or forklift needs separately at collection and delivery. Check the Gloucestershire Highways maps for current or planned works on the booked date. This guidance does not grant loading permission, promise access or confirm availability.
Measure goods as they will travel. Loading and unloading are separate arrangements; confirm the people, equipment and space at both addresses.
