An intercity move has two sets of arrangements to get right: leaving one address and being ready to receive your belongings at the next. Start with the inventory, your preferred pickup date and when you can access the destination. These details help shape a realistic moving plan.
Share the pickup and destination localities, floors, lift access and parking arrangements. If you have not finalised the new address, explain what is known and when the remaining details will be available.
Arrange someone to be present at both ends. Keep important documents and daily essentials with you so you are not dependent on the shipment arriving before you can settle in.
Provide the origin, destination, item list and preferred moving date. Mention fragile or unusually large items.
Review the assessment and quotation, including packing, loading, transport and the help needed at the destination.
Confirm building access and prepare the belongings covered by your moving plan. Keep travel essentials separate.
The agreed packing, loading and transport services are carried out for your scheduled move.
Check the delivered items and coordinate unloading, unpacking or reassembly where included in your quotation.
Confirm the services, responsibilities and proposed arrangements in your quotation before booking.
Discuss Your RequirementsDiscuss the inventory and the available transport options for the route. Ask how pickup, loading, transit and delivery will be coordinated, and which services are included at each end.
Furniture dismantling, unpacking and reassembly should be listed separately where required. If you need storage between addresses, confirm its availability, access conditions and charges before dispatch.
Label cartons by room and keep an item or carton list. Identify fragile items and any existing damage that should be recorded before packing. Keep the quotation and contact details accessible during the move.
On arrival, check the items against the record and tell the team about any concern promptly. Confirm where large furniture belongs before it is placed, especially where room access is limited.
A lower headline price may cover different work. Compare packing, transport, loading, unloading and destination assistance on a like-for-like basis. Ask how inventory changes, access problems or revised dates will be handled.

DZ Cargo brings 11+ years of moving experience and IBA-approved services to the planning of your relocation. Our trained team helps organise the work around your belongings, access conditions and destination. Review the service details and quotation with us before booking.
The inventory, route, packing, access and delivery services affect the work involved. Share those details for a quotation instead of relying on a fixed price for every move.
Discuss the information you have and what remains undecided. Final access and delivery details may change the scope, so agree how the quotation will be updated.
Check the written quotation. These services must be agreed where needed and should not be assumed part of transport alone.
Contact the team as early as possible. Storage or a revised delivery arrangement needs separate confirmation and may affect charges and scheduling.
Share your pickup, destination and preferred date, along with the items or services involved. We will help you work through the next steps and prepare a quotation for your requirements.
