Below are some things that will help come moving day. These things will help make your move easy and seamless.
Disconnect your appliances Your moving company will not be responsible for disconnecting any of your appliances, so make sure you take care of that before they get there. Disconnect your stove, refrigerator, and washer and dryer from gas and water lines. Also remove gasoline and oil from lawn mowers and propane from barbecues.
Preparing your home It’s important your home is as easy to navigate for the movers as possible. So it’s a good idea to remove artwork, clocks, and shelving from the walls beforehand to avoid damage. You’ll also want to clear all walkways and set aside items that you wouldn’t like anyone loading onto the truck.
Pack a bag Before your professional movers arrive, it’s wise to pack a moving bag full of items that are necessary for your first night in your new home. Think: toiletries, cell phones and computers, important documents, medications, and even clothes and towels. This will make sure that you have what you need while you wait for the rest of your items to arrive.
Dispose of any hazardous materials Your movers will not be able to handle or transport hazardous materials for you. So if it is dangerous or flammable, chances are you’re going to have to get rid of it, or move it yourself.
