Where’s the job?

Scope of Works

• Inspect cushion labels and zips to confirm cleaning or dry‑clean instructions

• Carefully remove cushions from frames, tag positions and note any damage

• Vacuum and brush loose debris onsite and spot‑treat obvious stains if agreed

• Isolate and bag heavily soiled or mouldy cushions using PPE and advise on disposal or specialist cleaning

• Transport cushions to a cleaning facility or arrange return delivery after cleaning as agreed

• Refit and position cushions on return, check for foam degradation and recommend replacements if needed

Typical Cost

Time on Site

Most single‑sofa cushion removals take 30–60 minutes on site; collecting multiple sets, working in tight stairwells or isolating mouldy cushions can extend the visit to 1–3 hours

Questions to Ask Your Tradie

• do you remove cushions and clean offsite or perform cleaning onsite

• what is included in the call‑out and is return delivery charged separately

• how do you handle mould, pest contamination or biohazards and what PPE do you use

• do you provide labelling and protective covers and will you match cushions to their original positions

• what insurance do you carry and do you accept liability for accidental fabric damage

• how long until cushions are returned and is there a guarantee on cleaning or repairs

How to Avoid Surprises

• clear a path and free up floor space for removal, packing and temporary storage

• reserve a parking bay or tell the tradie about permits and restricted access to avoid added travel charges

• point out tight stairs, narrow doorways or lifts and say if furniture must be tilted or partly disassembled

• label cushions and keep delicate, pet‑damaged or mouldy items separate from regular cushions

• tell the tradie about pets, allergies or recent pest treatments and show fabric care labels if available
