Holiday booked but your suitcase is up in the loft? I'll fetch it down safely so you can start packing. No ladders, no stress.
### Nobody Enjoys Loft Acrobatics
Let's be honest: getting stuff from the loft is a **pain in the arse**. Ladder to haul out, hatch to wrestle open, balancing on wobbly joists in the dark, trying not to put your foot through the ceiling. And that's before you've even found the suitcase.
Then you're pulling a heavy case through a narrow hatch while standing on a ladder. It's the sort of job that **feels risky because it is**.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Book this a few days before you travel. Last-minute panic the night before flying means you're trying to pack at midnight because the case was still in the loft.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Return journey?** Book me to put the case back up after your holiday. Most people forget and it lives in the bedroom for six months. Schedule both trips together and it's done. **Multiple trips?** If your whole family is traveling and you've got 4-5 suitcases to retrieve, it's still the same £60 callout - I'll bring them all down in one visit. **Old Exeter houses with dodgy loft access?** I've seen it all - wonky hatches, no loft ladder, insulation everywhere, low headroom. I'll manage it safely even when your loft access is less than ideal.
Frequently Asked Questions about Suitcase from loft in Ottery St Mary
Can you get multiple cases down at once?
Absolutely - if you're a family going on holiday or you've got several people traveling, I'll bring down all your luggage in the same visit. Still £60 for the callout regardless of how many cases (within reason!).
My loft hatch is quite small - will you manage?
I deal with Ottery St Mary's old loft hatches all the time - narrow openings, awkward angles, dodgy ladders. As long as the case physically fits through, I'll get it down. If it's wedged or stuck, I'll sort that too.
Can you put it back up after my holiday?
Yes - book another visit for when you're back. Or if you know your return date, I can schedule both jobs at once. Some people book the return trip at the same time to make sure they don't forget.
What if I don't know where my suitcase is in the loft?
I can have a look around for it - though that might take a bit longer if your loft's packed full. If you've got a rough idea where it was stored, that helps. Worst case, we'll find it together.
I'm elderly and can't climb ladders anymore - can you help?
That's exactly why people call me for this. No need to risk ladders or awkward loft access - I'll get your cases down safely and hand them to you at ground level.
