It is important to apply an organized approach to a moving matter. All the moving company services need to be supplemented by customer individual preparation. Here are some recommendations for a comfortable moving process.

             

• Set a date for moving. It is advisable to start getting ready for it in advance: in a month or three weeks.

• Allocate your budget.

• Take a few measurements, as doorway, window openings and the largest furniture pieces. Figure out if a freight elevator can be used.

• Make a list of things that need to be transported. Print it out. Prepare stickers for boxes, containing all necessary information: what is in a box and where it needs to be placed in a new location.

• Clean the space by getting rid of old and useless items.

• Order an appropriate quantity of packing sheets, containers and materials in advance.

• Books should be sorted by size, textile – by purpose, clothing – by season, crockery – by material. All cosmetics and chemicals need to be hermetical. Some items should be taken into pieces in case their parts have different solidity.

• Boxes need to be also marked by such tips, as: “this side up”, “fragile”, “living room” and a content description.

• It is recommended to pack valuable items separately: jewelry, documents, money, keys and gadgets.

• Make a couple of boxes for the first days at a new place: put toothbrushes, towels, cups, dishes, cutlery, pajamas, slippers and toiletries.

• Take care of your children and pets: as a rule, it is better to leave them with friends or relatives on the day of major packing.

When most of preparation works are completed, have some rest and get ready for a new housing!
