Scrap metal collector estimate FAQs

Can I convert an accepted scrap metal collector estimate to an invoice?

Yes. When a quote is accepted, you convert it to an invoice in a couple of taps. Line items, totals and customer details carry over so you don't retype anything — just adjust if anything changed on site.

How does online acceptance work for my customers?

You send a link to your estimate. The customer opens it on their phone or computer, reviews the quote and accepts it with one action. You get notified straight away and fixdd keeps a clear record.

Can I take a deposit when the scrap metal collector estimate is accepted?

Yes. Set a deposit amount or percentage on the quote. When the client accepts, they can pay the deposit online by card, so you're covered for materials and diary commitment before you start.

Can I split a scrap metal collector job into staged payments on an estimate?

Yes. Payment stages let you tie amounts to milestones — for example deposit on acceptance, interim after first fix and balance on completion. It helps cashflow on larger jobs and sets expectations upfront.
