What shapes the estimate
- Unit size and remaining contents
- Stairs, elevator reservation, and corridor distance
- Building access and loading rules
- Appliances or fixtures that remain
- Turnover deadline and follow-on work
Prepare the space
- Confirm authority to remove remaining property
- Photograph and inventory contents as required
- Reserve elevator or loading access
- Protect items and fixtures that stay
Questions to settle early
Can you work around an apartment loading window?
Share photos and a short inventory first. The answer depends on the item mix, access, and the agreed scope.
Who decides what can be removed?
Yes when the areas are included in the written scope and the path between them is clear.
Can the scope include common-area items?
Volume, weight, special items, disassembly, stairs, elevator use, parking, and carrying distance can all affect the plan.
