Planning the drop in Stratford-upon-Avon

- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around CV37 are priced to the exact address.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
