Moving Tips

13 Tips For Your Next Move

  1. Eliminate What You Don’t Want Or Need Before You Move. In Case You Haven’t Utilized In Over A Year, And It Isn’t A Valuable Family Heirloom, You Probably Don’t Need It. Give It To Your Charity, Sell It In A Garage Sale Or Eliminate It. There Is Very Little Sense In Paying Us To Transfer Items Which You Don’t Want And Won’t Use.
  2. Should You Have Any Questions Or Concerns, Please Do Not Hesitate To Contact Us. Maintain A Copy Of Connected Paperwork (like the Estimate, Confirmation, Etc.) Together With You Throughout The Entire Process Of Your Transport, In Case You’ll Have to Refer To It.
  3. Be Sure to Keep Your Boxes Light And Manageable. Take Care Not To Overload The Cartons. If You Can Not Boost The Carton Easily, It Is Too Heavy! Keep The Weight Of A Single Box To Less Than 50 Lbs.
  4. Use Appropriate Cartons When Packing. This Can Go A Long Way Towards Ensuring Your Goods Arrive Safely. Please Be Aware That Plastic Trash Bags Aren’t Appropriate Cartons Under Any Conditions.
  5. Use Proper Padding After Organizing Your Boxes. Do Not Skimp About Packing Paper Or Bubble Wrap. As A General Rule Of Thumb, When In Doubt, Use More Cushion Than Less.
  6. Dishes Should Be Packed Vertically, In Dish Barrels. Don’t Stack Your Dishes In A Box Under Any Conditions. As A General Rule, You Should Only Expect To Blend About The Equivalent Of Position Settings In 1 Dish Pack. If You Have More Than That From Your Box, You Have Not Employed Enough Padding (see Item 5 Above).
  7. For Fragile Things Do Not Pack In The Exact Same Carton As Heavy Or Bulky Items.
  8. Mark Your Own Boxes Clearly With The Title Of The Room In Which You’d Like Each Carton Placed. This Will Greatly Accelerate The Unloading At Your New House. You Might Also Need To Make A list of What Items Are In Each Particular Box To Help You Quickly Unpack And Discover Essential Items On Your New House.
  9. Require Your Valuables And Needed Drugs Together With You. The Mover Is Not Responsible For These Belongings.
  10. Set All Items Not To Be Careful Or Performed From The Mover In A Safe And Independent Location, like An Empty Closet Or bathroom. Items Like Purses, Valuables, Plants, Pets, Etc.. Tell The Movers That This Place Is Off Limits Because It Includes Items You Wish To Transfer Yourself. Be Sure All The Packers And Movers Know Which Matters Should Be Careful And Moved, And Which Things Aren’t. Clear Communication From Everyone Is Wholly Essential To A Smooth Move.
  11. Whenever Possible, Make Alternative Arrangements For Young Children And Pets On Moving Day. It Is Best When You And The Movers Can Provide One Another Your Undivided Care For The Entire Move. Moving Day Can Also Be A Bit Dangerous For Little Ones And Pets, So It’s Best That They Be Elsewhere If Possible.
  12. Maintain Your Phone Service At The Origin Connected Until After The Transfer Is Totally Finished. Your ability to Completely Communicate With Your Mover And Everyone Else can Be Crucial.
  13. Organize To Have Gas And Electric Service, Cable Service, Newspaper Deliveries, Telephone Service Etc.. . Turned Off In The Origin And Back On At The Destination. Wherever Feasible, Have These Items Overlap For A Day Or So Just In Case Something varies With The Transfer Date. Ensure That Your Article Office Knows Where And When to Start Sending Your Mail.
