Flat pack furniture assembly in Wembley

Send the full address and any parking instructions issued for the building. Wembley event days can affect parking near the stadium. Check Brent’s guidance for the appointment date and tell us what restrictions apply at your address. If there is a reserved unloading space, ask how long it is available and where the vehicle can go afterwards.

Keep the vehicle instructions separate from the route a visitor takes on foot. A building may have a ground-floor entrance for residents and a different route for contractors. Ask whether reception needs the fitter’s details and who can provide lift access. If the appointment covers two flats or offices, name a contact for each.

For timed unloading, tell us where boxes may wait after they are moved out of the vehicle. Keep exits and shared stairs clear. If the retailer delivery is planned for the same morning, check the expected arrival window. An assembly slot is easier to arrange once the complete order and its hardware are available.

Tell us which piece needs to be usable first. In a bedroom used for working, a new bed can leave too little floor space to lay out a long desk. Share the room plan and measure the path around each piece. If an old desk or wardrobe needs taking apart, agree that before the visit.

Draw the bed, desk and wardrobe to scale if possible. Check chair travel and measure the distance to bed drawers and wardrobe doors. Mark the outlets and any vents you need to keep clear. If the furniture is intended for a move-in, tell us whether packing boxes will be cleared before the appointment.

Agree where the existing furniture will go. If it is staying, leave access to the work area and move any electrical equipment away from the build. If it needs dismantling, share its model and condition if known. Tell us whether you plan to reassemble it later so the panels and fixings can be kept together.

Brent Council parking guidance

For a flat or workplace with a service lift, ask how large a package can enter. Measure the lift opening, cabin and the corridor turn. Keep the supplier’s dimensions for long wardrobe panels and desks. If the retailer has left cartons with reception, agree who will move them and where they should be by the appointment.

Check the model list when the cartons arrive. A wardrobe can have multiple frames and separate door, rail and drawer packs. A desk may have a different top and base. Leave the stickers intact and group cartons by room or by furniture piece. Send photos of damaged packaging before opening an affected pack.

Ask if the building limits the hours for work involving tools. Tell us about any permissions that apply if a wardrobe requires a fixing. Share the wall material where known and note visible sockets, radiators or pipes near the intended position. We can discuss the manufacturer’s requirements before promising a position.
