Moving Tips

Moving tips
-
Make your reservations for movers two to four weeks before your move day.
-
For large appliances be sure to check your owner’s manuals to see if there are special instructions for moving.
-
Don’t try to get rid of your children’s favorite things before the move – even if it makes it easier. Kids sometimes have a hard time dealing with the change of the move itself.
-
By law, a moving company can’t transport hazardous materials such as gasoline, bottled gases and other flammables, ammunition and explosives.
-
Pack a box of essential items that you will need immediately after the move and make sure it’s the last thing added to the truck.
-
Clean out closets, the attic, and the basement as soon as you decide it’s time to move.
-
Make a “survival closet” of things for the last cleanup before you move out – broom, dust cloth, dust pan, mop.
-
Remember to get snacks for move day.
-
Schedule disconnect times for about a week before your move day -- you don’t want to have to pay for cable, phone and utilities when you aren’t even there!
-
Cancel newspapers, cable, pest control, cleaning help, lawn services about a week before the move.
-
Mail in your change of address forms about week before your move date.
-
Clean your stove before you move out.
-
If you are depending on friends and family to help you move, have a back-up plan if they don’t show.
Packing tips
-
Avoid mixing items from different rooms in the same box.
-
Use wardrobe boxes to make closets easier to pack. Clothes in drawers can be placed in suitcases.
-
Use only small boxes for books. They get very heavy, very fast.
-
Never use printed newsprint to wrap fine china.
-
Always stack dishes upwards when packing.
-
Pack important and sentimental documents separately to be easily accessible including: children’s health records, passports, family records, insurance information and photo albums
-
Never use duct tape – use packing tape.
-
Clearly label all boxes on top and side.
-
As you take apart furniture and other items make sure to tape all parts to the main base.
-
Try to pack all electronic equipment, like stereos in their original boxes. Otherwise use bubble wrap when packing these items.
-
Start packing items you will not need ahead of time.
-
Always pack and unpack breakables over a padded surface.
-
Always tape boxes.
-
Don’t use boxes without tops. No tops make it impossible to stack properly in the truck.
-
Use custom-designed boxes when packing fine china and clothing.
-
Have plenty of supplies
