Make the keep pile unmistakable
Move important items to a separate room or mark them clearly. If something cannot move, point it out in the first walk-through.
- Documents and photos
- Keys and remotes
- Tools that stay
- Rental or building property
Keep private material out of the removal pile
Check drawers, boxes, cabinets, and furniture for personal records, medication, money, or identifying information before the job begins.
Leave the route usable
When possible, keep doors, gates, halls, and parking access clear. If access cannot be cleared, describe it in the request so it is part of the scope discussion.
