Prepare for an estimate
A useful estimate begins with a short item list and the path from each item to the truck.
Write down the item types, approximate quantity, floor or outdoor location, stairs, elevator, gate, parking distance, disassembly questions, and preferred timing. Take photos of the full load and the tightest access point. Final acceptance and price must be confirmed with the operator.
