Questions to Ask Your Trade

1. Do you provide a two‑person crew and are they fully insured for in‑house moves?

2. Is the quote fixed or hourly, and how are delays (traffic, stairs) billed?

3. Will you label fixings and supply bags/blankets, or must I provide them?

4. Can you dispose of unwanted pieces and what are the recycling fees?

5. Do you carry a stud/cable detector to reinstall anti‑tip brackets safely?

6. How do you handle damage claims to floors, walls or veneer?

7. What is your call‑back policy if reassembled furniture creaks or mis‑aligns later?

   
   

How to Avoid Surprises

• Measure doorways & stairs; send photos of tight turns before booking.

• Reserve parking and lift times for easy trolley access.

• Empty drawers & remove fragile items to cut weight and risks.

• Protect floors with sheets and secure pets in another room.

• Keep manuals or QR links ready—factory diagrams speed re‑assembly.
