Use four visible zones
Mark keep, move, remove, and vendor return areas. Use the same labels on the written inventory and on the floor.
Plan for the handoff
Confirm the lease deadline, elevator reservation, dock access, keys, and who can approve changes on site. Leave enough time for a final walk-through.
Prepare the removal list
Count furniture, list equipment, photograph access, and note materials that may need separate approval. A complete list makes the estimate and crew plan more useful.
Before you request an estimate
- Count and photograph the items.
- Identify anything that stays or belongs to a vendor.
- Document stairs, elevators, doors, and loading access.
- Share the deadline and building time windows.
