Leave room for materials coming in
Mark out the proposed position before delivery. Keep the access needed by builders and other vehicles, and send a photo if the drive is shared or the approach involves a tight turn.
Separate excavation from the final clear-up
Soil and rubble need a different assessment from packaging, timber and old furniture. Describe each part of the project rather than choosing a large container solely from its volume.
