Before you book errands, materials pickup & donation runs
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Write the stops in order
List each stop with the address, the hours and what is being picked up or dropped. Grouping nearby stops keeps the hours down and makes the plan clear.
Order and pay online first
Place pickup orders and pay ahead where you can, so the pro only collects. Send the order number and the name on the order.
Measure and weigh what is coming
Check the size and weight of each item against the vehicle the pro drives. Long or heavy pieces may need a larger truck or a second person.

Prepare donation items in advance
Bag and box donation items so they can be loaded quickly. Check what the site takes and its hours so nothing is turned away.
Keep receipts and returns organized
Give the pro the receipt and any packaging needed for a return. Ask them to bring back the refund receipt so you can track it.
