- Start by getting rid of those things you don’t want to move or don’t need. A garage sale before you move is much better than waiting until you’re in the new location.
- Start packing early. There is always going to be more to pack than you originally expected.
- Label the boxes with contents and what room in the new location they should be placed.
- Secure the bottom of every box properly with heavy duty tape.
- Any personal items should be kept in a separate location and the movers should be notified of them.
- Clothing wardrobe boxes will be on loan free of charge. Leave hanging clothes in the closet. Everything on the closet shelves should be packed ahead of time.
- Pack heavy items such as books or magazines in smaller boxes.
- Pack dishes and glassware in newspaper in small or medium boxes.
- Electronic equipment should be unplugged and wrapped. Label the cables before disconnecting.
THE BETTER ORGANIZED YOU ARE THE FASTER THE MOVE CAN BE EXECUTED
