</>What does Heave-Ho do?
Clearing out a flat means picking up a lot of junk and putting it somewhere else. Heave-Ho makes that considerably more entertaining. Crank the power slider and anything you throw leaves your hands like it has somewhere urgent to be. Old chairs, bin bags, that mattress nobody wants - all of it can now travel the length of the building. It is pure physics silliness, and it is exactly the kind of thing this game invites. The slider goes from a firm shove up to genuinely absurd, so you can tune it from useful to ridiculous. Switch it off the moment a job needs a careful touch. Good with Hard Hat on, for reasons that become obvious.

</>Common questions about Heave-Ho
What does Heave-Ho do in Low-Budget Repairs?
Heave-Ho multiplies how hard you throw things in Low-Budget Repairs. Clearing out a flat means picking up a great deal of junk and putting it somewhere else, and this turns that into a physics experiment: old chairs, bin bags and the mattress nobody wants all leave your hands like they have somewhere urgent to be. The slider scales from a firm shove up to sending furniture the length of the building, and your normal throw returns when you switch it off.
How much difference does the Throw Power setting actually make?
Set it to 1 and you throw exactly as you always did. Nudge it up and everything leaves your hands harder, but weight still matters, so a bin bag and a heavy old radiator will go very different distances at the same setting. That is worth knowing before you wind it up in a small room. Low numbers are the practical range: enough to clear a floor without hunting for what you threw. Middling numbers turn a clear-out into a proper laugh. High numbers are strictly for entertainment, and you will spend a while finding the wardrobe afterwards.
Does Heave-Ho change how I pick things up and carry them?
No. Picking up, holding and placing objects in Low-Budget Repairs all work exactly as before, since Heave-Ho only affects the moment you let go. So you can still position furniture carefully, carry things up a stairwell, and put a lamp down where you meant to. It also does not change how much you can hold, which is Bigger Van's department. You can leave Heave-Ho on while doing genuine renovation work and only notice it when you deliberately throw something.
How high can I set the Throw Power slider?
The slider starts at 1, which is your normal throw, and by 50 things are travelling across the building with an alarming amount of enthusiasm. Somewhere around 3 to 5 is the sweet spot if you actually want to clear a Low-Budget Repairs flat quickly, since that is enough to fling bin bags out of a room without losing them through a window. There is also an Enabled toggle, so when a job needs a careful touch you can flick it off and go back to a normal throw.
What is Heave-Ho actually good for?
Two things: clearing out, and messing about. On the practical side, launching junk out of a room beats carrying it piece by piece, which speeds up the demolition phase of a Low-Budget Repairs job noticeably. On the other side, it is pure physics silliness of the kind that made Wobbly Life, Human Fall Flat and Brick Rigs so watchable, and it produces very good clips. Run it with Hard Hat on for reasons that become obvious four seconds after you throw a wardrobe.
