Prepare Your Furniture for Transport in Herne Bay


Now that you have booked your furniture collection and delivery service, the transporter will give you a courtesy call to let you know when they expect to be at the collection point. Ahead of this, we recommend you do the following. Verify Packaging/Protection: Check with your transport provider if they will be supplying blankets, bubble wrap, or similar to protect your furniture during transit.


If they are not, we would advise you package and protect the furniture as best you can yourself ahead of collection. Check Insurance: Your furniture courier will have goods in transit insurance in the unlikely case your furniture is lost or damaged in transit. We also recommend you check your home insurance policy, as many of these policies do cover furniture when in transit.
