Tips for Residential Moving
- When packing boxes, please double tape the bottom of the box. Only a single piece of tape is needed for the top of the box.
- Please write on the top of the box only. There is no need to write on the sides of the box.
- Please mark clearly what room the box or boxes will be placed. Please identify boxes by room, for example: master bedroom or green rug room. This will make it easier for the movers to correctly place your items.
- Furniture drawers throughout the house can stay full, but please remove all breakables or things that can move around, such as jewelry, cologne, and perfume.
- If there are doors on the furniture, all items must be removed behind them.
- The movers will disassemble and assemble items such as headboards, footboards, and mirrors. They will also disconnect all appliances.
- The refrigerator will be one of the last items to be loaded on the truck, so there is no need to defrost it. Please have a cooler available when you empty the contents of the fridge.
- The movers will not take lamps, plants, or paintings unless they are properly boxed.
- Please try to pack as much as you possibly can. The move will go faster if there are no loose items around.
- Any outdoor items such as porch furniture or shed items should be mentioned in advance so they are not forgotten.
- Please provide good written directions for movers. Remember to avoid bridges or roads which a moving van cannot use.
