How to choose well

1. The key requirement. Check disposal practice — responsible companies sort for recycling and dispose legally.
2. Reviews with specifics beat star counts. Look for reviews that mention your job type and how problems were handled — not just "good service".
3. Itemised quotes only. A lump-sum quote is where surprises hide. Line items let you compare fairly across companies.
4. Never pay fully upfront. Deposit, progressive payments, and a retention until the work is done and checked.
