Transport
One load.
Several recipients.
Some things to family, some to storage and the rest to your new home? Plan recipients and stop order before loading.
You can add several addresses to a Teleporter booking and distribute belongings among different recipients. Enter every stop in the app and agree who will open and receive items at each location. Clearly separating the load helps the right things come off at the right address.
The essentials, in brief.
- Label items with their destination, not just the owner's name.
- Plan the stop order before loading the van.
- Local per-minute billing continues between stops.
01 · Labelling
Make each part's destination visible
For example, use matching numbers for addresses on your list and the boxes going there. Also label loose shelves, table legs and fittings bags so they stay with the correct furniture.
Keep items that must remain at collection separate. Explain the grouping before loading so items for the first stop are not unnecessarily buried behind the rest.
02 · Recipients
Treat each stop as a separate handover
Provide a name, phone number, floor and access instructions at every delivery address. Agree where items should go and whether the recipient will help carry.
Choose help for the most demanding stop. An armchair for the ground floor and a sofa for the fourth floor can share a load but may need different carrying arrangements.
03 · Timing
Do not give every recipient the same arrival time
The journey includes driving, unloading and any carrying indoors. Update the next recipient if timing changes, and ensure contacts can answer the phone.
For ordinary local per-minute service, driving and work between agreed addresses count until the task ends. The five free waiting minutes apply once at the beginning, not at each delivery.
04 · Changes
If a recipient can no longer open
Contact the driver and support about options. Changing the stop order or adding a later return depends on time, space and the driver's next job.
Also agree who pays for the overall transport. Several recipients do not automatically mean the bill is split between them; arrange any special payment arrangement with support.
