Studio & kit moves for satellite collectors

Not every relocation is a full household clear-out. Sometimes it is a shed of receivers, a loft of dishes, and a weekend deadline before the keys change hands. That is still a logistics problem — just a smaller, sharper one.

We suggest three passes: inventory (photograph serial plates), protect (foam and upright crates), and sequence (dishes last so they sit on top). In October 2023 a reader in Brent rebuilt that sequence after a rain delay, and in March 2025 another used the same list when downsizing from a garage workshop.

Keep coax coiled large, not tight knots. Keep LNBs in soft bags. Keep paperwork — old Sky leaflets, alignment notes — in a waterproof wallet. Analogue SAT UK cannot load a van for you, but we can help you decide what is worth moving versus what belongs in a museum pile.
