Basic delivery commonly focuses on pickup, transport, unloading, and approved placement, but exact inclusions depend on the selected service.
Write these details into the request rather than keeping them as service-day assumptions. Furniture and appliance delivery depends on measurements, safe handling, pickup readiness, and a clear destination path.
Disconnection and preparation
Old appliances may need to be unplugged, drained, emptied, cleaned, or disconnected by a qualified person before arrival.
Photos, measurements, and a reachable contact make this checkpoint easier to verify before anyone travels.
Installation and utilities
Gas, water, electrical, venting, cabinetry, and code-related work may require a licensed or retailer-approved installer.
If the condition changes, update the plan early so vehicle, crew, timing, and handling can be reviewed.
Haul-away and disposal
Removal of an old appliance is a separate task unless selected and confirmed, and disposal destinations may charge fees.
The goal is a route that protects the item, the property, and the people completing the work.
Testing and documentation
Verify the model and visible condition. Functional testing should follow the installer or manufacturer process appropriate to the appliance.
Finish this step before checkout whenever possible and keep the supporting information available on service day.
Frequently asked questions
Does delivery include connecting a gas appliance?
Do not assume it does; gas work may require a qualified professional and must be arranged explicitly.
Will packaging be taken away?
Packaging removal depends on the service scope. Review it before booking.
Can the old appliance be removed on the same visit?
It may be possible when haul-away is selected and the item is prepared according to the service requirements.
