Prepare for an estimate
Gather the details that affect volume, labor, access, and material handling before you call.
Use this five-part scope
- Property: full address, building type, floor, and operating hours.
- Material: item groups, counts, weight concerns, and anything restricted or uncertain.
- Route: doorways, corners, stairs, elevators, docks, parking, and carry distance.
- Timing: deadline, access windows, customer traffic, and other contractors on site.
- Approval: the person who can confirm the final load and handle exceptions.
An estimate is not a booking. Final acceptance, availability, and price require direct confirmation.
