Things you need to do prior to moving

• At least Four weeks before your move date:
• One or Two Weeks Prior:
• Two to Seven Days Prior:
• The Day Before:
• Moving Day:

Call at least three movers and arrange a walk through, be sure all the movers are present at the same time, this will eliminate you from duplicating your work, or forgetting to show a mover something. Estimates are free and you are under no obligation.

Be sure to tell the movers the dates you are planning to move.

Be sure you know what items are to be moved and what items will be discarded, prior to the move.

Make the move date one convenient for you and not the mover, remember you are the customer.

If you've already made the arrangements with a mover, confirm with them to make sure you are still scheduled.

Meet with mover to have another walk through and get advice on items like copies, PC's etc.

Check with the utility companies and make arrangements to turn on all utilities at the new location, the day before your move day. You may want to some prep work prior to moving in.

Make arrangements to have the new office cleaned if needed.

Confirm move dates with the movers and ask any questions that have been asked of you. Put together a "Move Day Kit" of everything you think you'll need to take with you on moving day.

Try to pack as much of what is left as possible. The more organized you are today the less organized you will be on move day.

Pack as much as you can. Mark a few cartons "last day" so they are ready for you to pack those last minute things.

Toss the final batch of things into the "last day" cartons.

As the final items are placed on the truck, be sure to do a final sweep for any items that may have been overlooked.
