Packing Service in Featherstone

Packing a pit terrace or a new-build close room by room

Terraced houses around George Street and Granville Street have small front rooms and a kitchen at the back, so packing starts at the back and works to the front, leaving the path to the door clear for loading. Glass, china and pictures are wrapped individually, and the boxes are marked fragile and loaded on top.

Newer homes on Stanley Main Avenue or Four Stones Way have more storage: fitted wardrobes, a garage and a loft. Open each one and photograph it for the quote, since a full loft can add hours. Sort out what you no longer want before the packing starts; the boxes are filled only with things heading for the new house. Shed and garage contents, such as tools and garden chairs, are packed last and loaded near the back doors, since they are the first things needed outside at the new house.

Preparing a Featherstone home for packing

• Decide which rooms to hand over: every room, or only the kitchen cupboards and the fragile pieces
• Put passports, keys, medicines and jewellery to one side to carry yourself
• Set aside a first-night box of bedding, mugs, a kettle and toothbrushes, packed last and opened first
• Ask at the quote about boxes and materials, and say what you already have
• Empty the drawers of any chest or dresser that is going, as full drawers make it too heavy to carry safely
