Getting your home ready for moving day makes the process faster, safer, and more efficient for everyone involved. Here is how to prepare so your crew can work at peak performance.
Packing and Labelling
Have all boxes packed, sealed, and clearly labelled before the crew arrives. Disassemble furniture that needs it and keep hardware in labelled bags taped to the furniture. Remove all wall hangings and wrap fragile frames.
Clear the Path
Make sure hallways, stairs, and doorways are clear of obstacles. Lay down protective coverings on hardwood floors if you prefer. Ensure the driveway or loading zone is accessible for the moving truck.
Communicate Special Items
Point out fragile, heavy, or high-value items to the crew lead. If you have items that require special handling such as pianos, antiques, or artwork, discuss these in advance when booking your move.
Secure Pets and Children
Arrange for pets and small children to be cared for elsewhere on moving day. An open door and busy crew create safety risks for both.
