                                          Before your move date:

 

 1.   Make a "To Do" checklist.  Notify postal service and others of your new address. Schedule phone and utility disconnects and reconnects.  

 2.   Pack a suitcase/box (marked open ASAP) for each member containing daily essentials such as: clothing, grooming items, prescriptions, telephones,

       remotes, clocks, bed linens, pillows, towels, etc.

 3.   Decide what to move and what not to move and who will move what.

 4.   Make up a floor plan and decide where you want your furniture placed. 

 5.   Move or dispose of paints, solvents, insecticides, gas, motor oils, etc.

 6.   Complete all packing before the movers arrive.  Pack fragile, breakable and

       small (less than 1 cubic foot in size) items including electronics and 

       components.  Disconnect large electronics, have cords tied and unit ready for movers if included in your estimate. 

 7.   Make sure that there is a clear path  for the movers to use when moving items

       to/from your home. This includes ice, snow, debris or obstructions, or items

       that we are not contracted to move that may block any path.  Sweep dirt from sidewalks and driveway at new construction homes.

 8.   Have all items empty and in "ready to move" condition unless specifically excepted otherwise by the estimator and included in your estimate (furniture empty and disassembled, appliances disconnected, drawers and cabinets empty, knick-knacks and loose items  removed from furniture/items you have requested the movers to move).   

 9.   If your items are going to be placed in a storage facility, please request 

       a copy of our helpful storage tips. 

10.  We do not accept personal checks or credit cards.  Please have a money order,

       certified check or cash ready for the movers. We trust our  movers  with cash.  

 

                                            On your move date :

 

  At your old home (Origin)

       1.  Have pets removed from rooms/areas the movers will be in. 

       2.  Do a walk through before leaving for destination to make sure that the

            movers have loaded all that you have requested them to move.

 

 At your new home (Destination)

      1.   Be available to direct placement of your furniture as it comes into your

            home.  Have 1 person for every 2 movers available for this.

      2.   Verify appliances are connected and furniture is reassembled prior to

            the movers leaving if this service is included in your estimate.

      3.   Verify that you have received all items, in good condition and that 

            placement is as you requested prior to the movers leaving.

            Last, but not least:  "Welcome to your new home!"
