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 West Bromwich access
West Bromwich freight planning requires the goods entrance, booked receiving window and packed load dimensions. Do not send a high vehicle to a nearby visitor car park without checking its clearance. Where the route passes the A41 or another red-route road, agree a permitted loading area and confirm unloading equipment with the consignee.
Record length, width, height and gross weight in the packed condition. Confirm the vehicle approach, handling equipment and receiving arrangements at both ends independently.
- Check vehicle clearance and red-route stopping rules separately for the West Bromwich address.
- 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 West Bromwich enquiry checklist

- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. B70 is a location reference, not the whole service area.
- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
- Check the quote’s supplier, price, inclusions and booking terms before confirming.
