We need level access for heavy items to ensure our driver's safety.
Our vans require access to parking or a loading dock with 3m+ clearance. Otherwise items need to be brought to the van.
If your items are in a narrow laneway, have no clear access or place to park, they will need to be brought to where we can park safely and legally.
We cannot guarantee a pick up if we do not have appropriate level access.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
