Moving Day: How to Be Ready

On moving day, everything can go fast. A little preparation the day before lets the crew work efficiently and helps you keep a cool head.

The day before and the morning of

• Clear the access routes: entrances, stairs, hallways and parking near the door.
• Empty and unplug the refrigerator and freezer ahead of time.
• Keep important documents with you, out of the boxes.
• Have water and a snack ready for the day.

Walk through the rooms with the crew leader on arrival. Point out what is fragile, what stays behind and where each item should go in the new home.

Stay available to answer questions, but let the crew work at its own pace. Simple communication at the right time makes the whole day smoother.
