Use both ZIPs

City names are a start, but ZIP-to-ZIP detail is much better for the quote and the route.

Describe both access points

Origin access and destination access can be completely different, especially when moving from a home to an apartment or across the Bay.

Add timing notes

Bridge, corridor, elevator, lease, or office-hour timing is worth sharing early.
