Lived In To Listed is not responsible for any pre-existing wear, fading, marks, instability, defects, loose fixtures, fragile items or existing damage within the property or to client-owned furniture and belongings.
While reasonable care is taken during all services, clients acknowledge that styling, decluttering, preparation and furniture movement within lived-in homes may involve handling existing household items and furnishings.
Lived In To Listed accepts no liability for deterioration, breakage or issues relating to pre-existing weaknesses, unstable furniture, improperly assembled items or previously damaged belongings.
4. Service Scope & Limitations
4.1 Scope of Work
Services are delivered strictly in accordance with the inclusions of your selected package.

Move heavy or unsafe furniture
-
Clean hazardous areas
-
Dispose of hazardous waste
4.4 Styling Direction & Inventory Selection
Lived In To Listed retains full creative direction over all styling, staging and presentation decisions unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Styling selections are made based on a combination of factors including:
• Target buyer demographic and market appeal
• Property style, layout and photography presentation
• Inventory availability
• Installation logistics and operational requirements
• Staff safety and installation capabilities
• Budget, timeline and package inclusions
Clients acknowledge that styling and staging are designed to maximise buyer perception and overall market presentation, which may differ from the client’s personal taste, furnishing preferences or interior design style.
While we aim to consider client preferences where reasonably possible, Lived In To Listed does not guarantee specific styling items, colour palettes, furniture selections or decorative outcomes unless expressly agreed in writing prior to installation.
Due to inventory rotation, supplier availability and operational scheduling, substitute items may occasionally be used at our discretion where required.
5. Décor, Linen & Styling Items (Display-Only)
5.1 Ownership
All styling items, décor, artwork, linen, cushions, throws, accessories, and furniture remain the property of Lived In To Listed.
5.2 Display-Only Use
All supplied styling items, décor, linen, artwork and furnishings remain the property of Lived In To Listed and are provided primarily for display, presentation and property marketing purposes.
Clients acknowledge that the property may continue to be lived in during the campaign period and agree to take reasonable care of all supplied items throughout the hire duration.
Reasonable day-to-day living use is accepted; however, clients, occupants and visitors must not intentionally misuse, heavily wear, damage, alter, remove or improperly use supplied styling items.
The following are not permitted unless otherwise agreed in writing:
• Burning candles supplied for styling purposes
• Removing or relocating styling items without permission
• Using display towels, bedding or soft furnishings in a manner likely to cause staining or excessive wear
• Allowing pets or animals to damage supplied items
• Selling, disposing of or giving away any Lived In To Listed property
Additional cleaning, repair or replacement charges may apply where supplied items are returned in a condition beyond reasonable day-to-day presentation wear.
5.3 Damage or Loss
Clients acknowledge that many styling and staging items supplied by Lived In To Listed are delicate, high-value, custom sourced, or externally sub-hired inventory intended primarily for display and presentation purposes.
Clients remain fully responsible for any damage, staining, odours, scratching, tearing, breakage, soiling, pet hair contamination or deterioration caused by occupants, children, pets or visitors at the property during the hire period, regardless of whether the damage appears minor or accidental.
Particular care must be taken with cats, animals and young children around rugs, upholstered furniture, artwork, bedding, cushions, throws, ceramics, glassware and soft furnishings.
Where items cannot be restored to their original condition through standard professional cleaning or repair, full replacement costs may apply. This includes any applicable supplier, sub-hire, freight, sourcing, cleaning, administration or replacement fees incurred by Lived In To Listed.
Clients acknowledge that some items supplied may be externally hired or limited-availability inventory and may therefore require full replacement at supplier retail value if damaged beyond repair.
Lived In To Listed reserves the right to remove styling items from the property where pets, children or occupants are considered likely to cause ongoing damage to hired inventory.
5.4 Hire Duration
Where styling décor, artwork, linen, soft furnishings or display accessories are included within a preparation or styling package, these items are supplied on a temporary hire basis only.
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, included styling items are hired for a standard period of either one (1) calendar month or twenty-eight (28) days from the installation date, depending on supplier, sub-hire or inventory requirements. The applicable hire duration will be outlined within the client quote or booking confirmation.
At the conclusion of the agreed hire period, all items must be made available for collection by Lived In To Listed.
Where stock availability permits, clients may request a week-to-week extension for a maximum additional period of four (4) weeks only. Extensions are strictly subject to inventory availability, operational scheduling and upcoming installations. Extensions are not guaranteed.
Preparation package styling extensions are charged at a fixed weekly extension fee as outlined within the client quote, invoice or extension request.
Lived In To Listed reserves the right to decline or terminate any extension period where inventory is required for future projects, supplier return deadlines apply, or operational requirements change.
If hired items are not made available for collection within the agreed timeframe, additional extension charges may continue to apply until all items have been returned and collected in full.
5.5 Collection Access
Clients must provide safe, reasonable and timely access to the property for the scheduled collection of all hired styling, staging and display items.
If collection access is delayed, refused, restricted or unavailable at the agreed time, additional extension fees, call-out charges, storage costs or rescheduling fees may apply.
Lived In To Listed reserves the right to continue charging applicable hire extension fees until all items have been successfully collected and returned.
6. Storage, Boxes & Packing Materials
Any boxes, packing materials, or storage units supplied become the client’s responsibility once delivered.
Storage extensions or upgrades beyond the included period are charged at the client’s cost.
