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 Bourton-on-the-Water address
For a pallet, crate or heavy parcel in Bourton-on-the-Water, identify usable space at the goods entrance and the surface on which the load will be handled. A public car park or pedestrian route should not be assumed suitable for unloading equipment.
Measure the goods as they will travel, including the base and wrapping. Loading and unloading are separate arrangements; confirm the people, equipment and space available at both addresses.
- For machinery transport enquiries, prepare: weight and centre of gravity; lifting method; fluids and preparation.
- Name the exact receiving premises and loading entrance, then agree who will meet the vehicle. Visitor parking, pedestrian routes and the goods handover are separate parts of the plan.
Identify equipment at each end
A heavy machine may need lifting equipment or transport beyond a standard van or pallet service. State who provides equipment and appropriately trained operators.
Requests are reviewed individually; this page does not promise crane hire, machinery installation or hazardous-goods transport.
