Before scheduling

Permits and material checks belong ahead of demolition.

Edmonds has a published demolition-permit process, and Washington L&I has requirements for materials that may contain asbestos. The property and structure determine what applies.

Questions to settle

Before the crew and truck are committed.

Will the crew sort personal belongings?+

Plan to separate keepsakes and private documents before the visit. Ask about accepted contents when you call.

Can paint and fuel stay inside?+

Do not leave fuels, propane, chemicals or unknown liquids for ordinary shed hauling. Ask the appropriate local program how to handle them.

Should shelves be removed first?+

Leave built-ins in place until the scope is confirmed. Freestanding items are easier to price when listed separately.
