Collections From Poole Retail Park
Poole Retail Park sits on the A35 Poole Road in Branksome. On 14 August 2026 M&S Food opened in the former Homebase unit, taking the park to 94% let with 199 parking spaces, alongside furniture and homeware stores. BCP's own planning notes say the park's layout adds to congestion at nearby junctions, so we pick a quiet slot to collect. Our furniture and single item service covers store collections, flat-pack and pieces too big for a car.
Houses Between Poole Road and Yarmouth Road
Branksome is part of the Alderney and Bourne Valley ward, which had 6,677 households in the 2021 Census. 38% live in detached houses and 35% in semis, with only 15% in flats. BCP notes that the southern part, around Branksome and Upper Parkstone, has Victorian and Edwardian houses, while the streets further north are later.
Recent sales on Winston Avenue, Yarmouth Road, Sheringham Road, Wroxham Road and Cromer Road are typical of the work: two- and three-bedroom houses with a short carry to the van. For a full move, see our house removals service.
The Station and Poole Road
Branksome station on Poole Road, BH12 1DF, has 30 parking spaces and no step-free access, as its platforms sit below the entrance. Poole Road itself is the A35 between Poole and Bournemouth, so it is busy at rush hour. Branksome Business Park, on the former gasworks near Yarmouth Road, is one of several small business sites in the ward, and our man and van hire suits small stock and equipment runs from there.
