12 Hints To Be Prepared for Move Day

Hint 1-

Start early. For every level of your home, give yourself one week to pack. If you own a  two-story home, please start packing at least two weeks before moving. This helps you  to be better organized. Contact us for additional boxes, mattress covers, dryer vent  ducts, or extra materials that you may need upon our arrival. 

Hint 2-

Pack the heavier items (books) into smaller boxes. Watch the weight as you wouldn’t  want to overpack boxes. Don’t underpack a box, either. Make sure that all boxes are  taped/closed and that breakable items don’t rattle in the box. Be sure to pack your small  lamps and electronics into boxes. 

Hint 3-

Label/Color coordinate boxes by the room that they will go to in the new home. Kitchen  can be yellow stickers, Dining room can be green, and master bedroom can be blue. This  is just for example. It helps your movers to not have to ask where a box goes. This saves  us time, which saves you money. The more organized you are the more organized your  move. 

Hint 4-

Keep the walkways and driveways clear. It’s safer for movers when the areas are clutter free. This goes for kids, pets, vehicles & any loose items. 

Hint 5-

Put your extremely valuable items away, especially if they won’t be handled by movers.  Purses, jewelry, etc should be kept away. We are men of God and we can be trusted, but  certain customers feel overwhelmed when there are swift moving people handling their  goods. 

Hint 6-

It’s okay to leave clothes in dresser drawers. Please remove any heavy, fragile,  breakable, or extremely valuable items from your drawers, though. Furniture is already  heavy enough without the collection of magazines, stone pillars, and photo albums in  your dresser drawers. 

Hint 7-

It’s okay to leave clothes in dresser drawers. Please remove any heavy, fragile,  breakable, or extremely valuable items from your drawers, though. Furniture is already  heavy enough without the collection of magazines, stone pillars, and photo albums in  your dresser drawers. 

Hint 8-

Get rest. Move days can be a long process. Be patient. Move days can be a long process.  Eat. Move days can be a long process. And SMILE… 

Hint 9-

Keep important items like toilet paper handy and in place. You’d be amazed at the look  on a face when they realize the restroom boxes were placed on the truck an hour ago.  

Hint 10-

Stay in contact with the lead mover during the move and with the office prior to the  move. 

We welcome any prior knowledge to certain difficult pieces. Please make sure to go over  paperwork, rates, and addresses with the lead mover upon arrival and office personnel  before the move day 

Hint 11-

Trust God and trust your move team. Give us space to do what you hired us to do. If  there is a problem, please contact your lead mover before contacting the office. If there  are any questions regarding paperwork, lunch, and gratuity, please contact the lead  mover on move day or the office prior to the move.

Hint 12-

And finally…be prepared to have a great day. We are Quality and we love quality  customers like you.
