Describe
Count each piece and note its material, size, and condition.
Bulky seating pickup
A clear route for the couch that will not budge.
Pickup for sofas, loveseats, recliners, sleeper sofas, and sectionals, with access details discussed before the visit.
What to include
Start with a clear item list.
Measure the narrowest doorway, count separate sectional pieces, and flag stairs, tight landings, or elevator reservations.
- Standard sofas
- Sectional pieces
- Loveseats
- Recliners
- Sleeper sofas
The pickup flow
Four details make the plan useful.
Map access
Share stairs, elevators, gates, parking, and carrying distance.
Confirm scope
Discuss disassembly, acceptance, timing, and the estimate directly.
Clear the route
Move loose objects, secure pets, and keep the path available.
Estimate factors
The furniture is only half the picture.
Quantity, dimensions, material, stairs, elevator access, disassembly, carrying distance, parking, and timing can all change the job plan. Call before assuming an item is accepted or a window is available.
