Before the truck arrives
Identify the authorised entrance, the person who can open it and any delivery restrictions. Mark the proposed position and explain turns, overhead obstacles, ground changes or other equipment that could affect access.
Keep the route available
The service vehicle needs practical access throughout the job, not just on delivery day. Review the position when fencing, parking or materials move. Ask the rental team before relocating a unit.
Finish the rental deliberately
Confirm the collection process and a contact for the final visit. Keep the unit accessible after the crew leaves. If the work runs over, request a revised arrangement rather than assuming a scheduled pickup is automatically cancelled.
Your La Porte enquiry checklist
- Who coordinates the gate?
- Will the route change?
- Who confirms final collection?
La Porte enquiries should name the actual site entrance as well as the property address. Where a site uses separate staff, visitor or delivery gates, identify the route that the rental team is allowed to use.
