FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q&A
WHAT SHOULD I KEEP WITH ME ON MOVING DAY?
Keep with you anything you or your family will use on the day of your move. Common items include snacks, toilet paper, paper towels, phone chargers, a change of clothes, toothbrush/toothpaste, and your kids’ favorite toys. Additionally, medications, important paperwork (e.g., birth certificates and social security cards), and anything highly valuable or sentimental (jewelry, credit cards, bank account information, etc.) should be set aside. On your moving day, place these essential items in a box or bag that you’ll carry with you to your new home.
WHAT'S THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY TO PACK A HOUSE?
-
Block off time in the days before your move to pack. Give yourself enough time to pack carefully without feeling overly stressed out.
-
Decide the order in which you’ll be packing up your home. The most common way is to pack up each room separately.
-
Begin packing the room in your home that gets the least amount of use.
-
Save essentials for last. You won’t want to pack items you use daily, such as a toothbrush, until the last moment possible.
-
If you don’t have time to pack yourself, you can hire professionals. Most moving companies offer packing services as well.
