How to Prepare for a Professional Moving Service #
Moving day approaching? Wondering how to make the process smoother? Moving can be stressful, but with the right preparation, it doesn’t have to be. Whether you’re relocating across town or to a new city, organizing your space in advance will save time, reduce hassle, and help our movers get you settled efficiently.
What to Do Before the Movers Arrive #
Our professional movers take care of the heavy lifting, but there are a few things you can do beforehand to make your move as smooth as possible. Here’s how you can prepare:
- Declutter Before Packing: Sort out unwanted items and donate, recycle, or discard them before moving day or hire us to remove your junk for you.
- Label Your Boxes: Clearly mark boxes with their contents and destination rooms to streamline the unloading process. Keep rooms together as much as you can.
- Secure Fragile Items: Wrap breakables properly and label boxes as ‘FRAGILE’ for careful handling.
- Disassemble Large Furniture: If possible, take apart large furniture items like bed frames or tables to save time.
- Keep Essentials Accessible: Pack a small bag with daily essentials such as medications, chargers, and a change of clothes.
- Clear Pathways: Ensure hallways, doorways, and staircases are free of obstacles to allow easy movement.
- Plan for Pets & Kids: Arrange for childcare or pet care during the move to avoid distractions. We do not transport pets or people.
- Place Boxes In Front Room: Put as much as you can in the room nearest to the best door for unloading your home. It is best to bring all upstairs boxes to the ground level.
Common Questions About Moving Services #

We offer professional packing services! If you need assistance, let us know ahead of time. - Should I empty my drawers before moving?
