Coastal hospitality turnarounds cannot afford half-shipped bed frames or uncounted bath hardware when ferry access and freight schedules tighten delivery windows. On a January 2018 mid-six-figure Red Roof Inn renovation in Nueces County along the Texas Gulf Coast, every guestroom replacement item was tallied floor by floor into one master procurement schedule.
Floor-by-Floor Replacement Counts
Takeoffs separated first-floor and second-floor guestroom quantities across 59 keys and 62 bed positions before factory release:
- Bedding and casegoods: Scheduled 57 Queen and 5 King mattress sets, 57 Queen and 10 Twin boxsprings, 62 steel bed frames, 57 Queen and 5 King headboards, 33 dressers, 40 nightstands, 33 closet racks, and 8 television stands.
- Appliances, seating, and bath hardware: Counted 36 microwaves, 40 refrigerators, 43 coffeemakers, 38 alarm clocks, 59 hair dryers, 66 dining chairs, lobby seating, 59 artwork packages, 92 vanity and full-length mirrors, and 64 towel and bath hardware sets.
Freight and Site Procurement Sequencing
Beyond item quantities, the quote allocated 2 percent for space planning and submittal engineering, 1 percent for on-site procurement coordination, 15 percent for direct jobsite freight, and 8.25 percent Texas sales tax. Delivering complete room-ready pallets in one Nueces County mobilization kept installation crews productive from ground floor up.
