Ensure there is nothing obstructing our service personnel from delivering your appliance. It's a good idea to check/measure doorways for large appliances.
For deliveries that include taking away an appliance, ensure it has been emptied of all it's contents and cleaned.
For appliances that attach to plumbing. Because in most cases we can't attach new appliances to your plumbing, it is a good idea to disconnect old appliances (if applicable) early and inspect your plumbing for leaks before attaching your new appliance.
If you have selected a delivery option where we take-away your old appliance. Please make sure it is disconnected from plumbing, power and can easily be removed from it's recess.
