Care you can see

You’ll see what we did, what changed and what comes next.

We photograph your gear when it arrives and again when care is complete, then explain the work and anything worth knowing.

We sort the collection by material, construction and care needs before choosing each method.

Your Care Report shows what we cleaned, grouped pieces, exceptions and any remaining wear.

Included in your Care Report

A simple size check

Choose the space—not an item count.

We provide the reusable lidded tote for the service. At pickup, eligible toys go inside below the marked fill line. You do not need to supply a container, and there is no item limit.

25L Toy Tote

We provide this compact lidded tote for smaller toy collections.

50L Toy Tote

We provide this larger lidded tote for bulkier toy collections.

We bring the tote

Choose 25L or 50L. We supply the clean, reusable lidded tote and place eligible toys inside at pickup.

Loose pieces

Keep building pieces or miniature toys together in a washable container you provide. We’ll keep them together as one group rather than count them piece by piece.

Tricky toys welcome

Electronic, wooden, weighted, foam-filled, vintage, damaged, mould-affected and water-trapping toys are reviewed for the safest suitable method.

Illustrations are a guide. Written volume and measurements determine the listed cleaning price. Specialty construction is reviewed for a safe cleaning method; only repair or mending receives a separate quote.

What we can help with

Useful work. Honest boundaries.

A good fit

  • Mixed toys that fit below the selected tote's fill line
  • Electronic, wooden, weighted and foam-filled toys for method review
  • Bath and water-trapping toys
  • Damaged, vintage, sentimental and mould-affected toys for individual review

What we can’t take on

  • Electrical, battery or motor repair
  • A method likely to trap inaccessible moisture or cause unacceptable damage
  • Visible mould, active pests or leaking batteries without pre-transport review
  • Needles, sharps or suspected narcotic substances

For everyone’s safety, we never accept needles, sharps or suspected narcotic substances. If an item arrives with an unsafe or very different condition, we’ll isolate it, pause the work and contact you.

Pickup + return

You’ll know what’s happening from start to finish.

  1. 1Tell us what your gear needs

    Book a straightforward clean or tell us about anything more involved. Your details stay with your request.

  2. 2Approve the plan and price

    We confirm your price, pickup timing, any parts and what we can safely do before your gear leaves home.

  3. 3Get your Care Report

    Your updates, completed work, photos, remaining limits and care tips arrive in one private report.

Frequently asked

Clarity before you start.

Do you clean every toy the same way?

No. Material, construction, labels and condition determine whether an item is washed, surface-cleaned or declined; the selected Tote price does not change.

Can electronic or difficult-to-clean toys be included?

Yes, they are welcome for review. If an item cannot be cleaned safely within the selected Tote, we exclude it rather than adding an unlisted cleaning charge. Electrical, battery and motor repair are excluded.

Do I need to provide the tote?

No. We supply the reusable 25L or 50L lidded tote for the service. At pickup, eligible toys go inside below the marked fill line; the price is per supplied tote, not per toy.

How are loose building pieces documented?

A contained collection is treated and documented as one logical group. Nest & Stow does not count, assemble or reconcile every component.

Should I bring a mould-affected toy to pickup?

Not before review. Submit the item and condition for assessment, but keep visible mould, active pests and leaking batteries isolated until Nest & Stow confirms whether and how it can be transported.
