Moving Checklist – What You Need to Do Before We Arrive

To ensure a smooth experience, here are some things you can do in advance:

1. Finish Packing

Last-minute packing is a stress magnet. We recommend finishing at least a day before your move so you’re not scrambling while our team loads the truck.

2. Label Everything Clearly

Make sure your boxes are labeled by room and include a “fragile” sticker if necessary. This makes unloading a breeze!

3. Keep Essentials Separate

Pack a “first-night” box with essentials like toiletries, snacks, chargers, and a change of clothes. This prevents the dreaded “Where’s my toothbrush?!”moment.

4. Secure Valuables & Important Documents

Jewelry, passports, legal papers—keep these with you&lt;/strong>, not in the moving truck.

5. Double-Check Your Home Before Leaving

Walk through every room, closet, and storage space to ensure nothing is left behind.
