Tool repair pickup and return.
Get a portable tool to the repair shop, or collect it when it’s ready.
A tool may need dropping off for repair while you’re working elsewhere. I can check suitable transport requests to and from local repair shops. Arrange the repair directly with the shop, then send the job reference, item details and receiving hours.
Ask about this pickupBefore the pickup.
Please include:
- The repair shop’s acceptance or job reference
- Contents, size, weight and protective packaging
- Safe transport preparation and collection hours
It needs to fit inside my SUV and be safe for me to carry on my own. A few photos, the measurements and a note about any stairs help me plan the pickup.
Book the repair with the shop, then I’ll handle the trip.
Confirm the repairer is expecting the tool and tell me which accessories need to travel with it. A return collection can be arranged once the work is complete and any shop charges are settled. Large equipment or items needing specialist transport do not fit a standard portable-tool collection.
A few things to know.
Do you repair the tools?
No. Porchbound provides the transport. You arrange the diagnosis, work and payment directly with the repairer.
Is the return included?
The return leg needs to be agreed and priced. It can be arranged once the shop confirms the tool is ready.
Can you take fuel-powered equipment?
Send its type and preparation requirements before booking. I’ll check suitability rather than assume it can travel inside the vehicle.

Back to your pickup detailsHow much will it cost?
It depends on the drive, what you’re picking up, and how much lifting is involved. I’ll give you a price before you decide. Let me know about stairs or a tight pickup window.
Can you pick up today?
Same-day pickups depend on my availability and the seller’s pickup window. A little notice helps me fit you in. Your pickup is confirmed once you and I have agreed on a time and price.
Do I pay the seller directly?
Yes. Pay the seller for the item and let them know Porchbound will pick it up. You’ll pay me separately for the delivery, at the agreed price.
Can you pick up my item?
Send a photo or listing and rough measurements, and I’ll check whether I can carry it safely and fit it in the car. I work on my own, so I can’t take anything that needs two people to lift. Mention any stairs at either end, too.
