A seller's stone terrace or an estate close: collecting in Meltham
Where the seller lives decides the pickup. On the one-way streets near the centre, such as Greens End Road, New Street or Westgate, the van can only stop on one side, so give the house number and it comes in the right way. On estate roads like Popley Drive or Sycamore Avenue it pulls up outside. Out at Helme or on a farm lane, a photo of the gateway saves a wasted trip.
Check the listing before the van leaves. Send the link, the measurements, the seller's postcode and a time they have agreed, and confirm the item is ready to go: a wardrobe emptied, a bed already apart, a washer drained. Pay the seller yourself, by whatever method you have agreed with them; the driver collects and delivers. An upright piano can be collected, with notice, if it is on the ground floor or the access is clear.
