I once got my screen replaced at one of the phone fix-it places. It's a decent sized chain, not just some rando. On the form you fill out during drop-off it asks you for your unlock code.

What did they say when you didn't include the passcode?

I wiped the phone before I brought it to them, so I just gave them the passcode.
