Sorting indoor storage
Check drawers, wardrobes and boxed items for belongings to retain. Identify furniture needing dismantling and appliances requiring assessment. If the address is close to an area boundary, a full postcode is more useful than a broad place name.
Separating outdoor materials
List cuttings, timber, soil and old pots separately. If a shed is involved, distinguish contents from the structure. Photograph the route and mention steps, gates or carrying distances that affect reaching the waste.
One project can have two collection routes
In a Petts Wood house-and-garden enquiry, explain if furniture leaves through the front while outdoor waste is reached from a side gate. Give the position of each pile rather than treating the property as one access point. If the side route passes through a garage, say whether stored belongings obstruct it. This helps describe the handling for the combined request without requiring everything to be moved into a single pile beforehand.
Check what is inside pots and storage units
A garden container may still hold soil, and an indoor cabinet may still contain possessions. State which contents are included and which you intend to keep. If the enquiry involves a shed, distinguish loose contents from the building itself. Keeping those decisions clear across the house and garden prevents a combined quote being based on the number of visible objects alone, when the actual material and quantity may be quite different.
