Who this list is for

How to use this list
Set up Business registration, General liability insurance, Goods-in-transit insurance, Business-use vehicle insurance, the Pickup and assembly service menu, and Delivery zone map. Collect the retailer pickup authorization, model number, item dimensions, and customer assembly authorization before the pickup. Use the Delivery condition photo form at handoff and the Furniture assembly agreement before assembly begins.
Common mistakes
Do not collect a box without retailer pickup authorization or confirm delivery access without item dimensions. Do not skip delivery-condition photos; they help document the item before assembly. A job is not complete just because furniture is assembled—use the Completion sign-off form with the customer.
