Questions to Ask Your Tradie
• do you include disposal fees in the quote or charge separately
• can you dismantle and refit bed frames and is there an extra charge
• how do you handle items with bedbugs, mould or contamination and do you use sealed bags
• what parking or access will you need and do you require permits for restricted streets
• are you insured and can you provide a waste transfer note for commercial disposal
• will call‑out fees be deducted from the final price if I proceed
How to Avoid Surprises
• clear a route from room to exit and measure doorways if tight
• reserve or advise on parking to avoid waiting charges
• tell the tradie about stains, pests or mould before the visit
• check building rules for bulky waste or concierge requirements in flats
• remove bedding and small items from the mattress to speed up the job
