A smoother pickup starts before the truck arrives. The most useful information is what the item is, where it sits, and what the removal path looks like.

Measure the furniture

Record width, depth, and height. Include protruding legs, handles, and pieces that can be detached.

Measure the route

Check the narrowest doorway and hallway, stair width, landing turn, and elevator opening if one is involved.

Flag the difficult part

A heavy piece, glass top, steep stair, or fragile doorway needs advance discussion. Do not assume disassembly is included.

Quick checklist

  • Item list and approximate dimensions
  • Photos showing the item and access route
  • Stairs, gates, elevator, and parking details
  • Anything requiring special handling or disposal
  • Preferred timing and an on-site contact

For help with this kind of job, read about furniture removal or plan a pickup. Confirm the actual scope and availability before making arrangements.
