If you need help with one area, for example moving heavier or items or reaching a tall crevice make sure you have help or the proper tools lined up and ready to go to make your job easier and the safest possible. In addition plan ahead, don’t wait till the last minute if you need a dumpster rental or truck to haul away unwanted items!
