PLANNING
Congratulations! Your move date has been scheduled and you are one step closer to enjoying your new home! Next, comes the planning phase. Use our Moving Checklist to ensure you have completed all tasks before the movers arrive.
Making sure your moving inventory list is accurate is integral to a stress-free move. Have you overlooked any belongings while compiling your list? The attic, garage, and patio are often home to forgotten items. Be sure to account for belongings tucked away in drawers, cupboards, and crawl spaces. If you would like to make changes to your inventory list, please contact our moving coordinators to update your estimate with any last-minute additions
If you reside in a building with a restricted parking area, ask your office if they require a Certificate of Insurance (COI) on moving day. If you have a building manager/property owner, be sure to keep them informed of the moving details. Learn the best place for the moving truck to park and elevator availability hours. Additionally, determine if there is a time restriction in place for the moving team.
BOX UP
Time to pack up all of your belongings! Or, save time and have the experts at Zip Moving and Storage professionally wrap and pack your valuables. Remember to unpack cabinets, drawers, and desks, as they should not be full of belongings for the move.
If left full, the movers may have to empty drawers on the spot. This process disrupts the move and you will, unfortunately, be charged for any packing left undone.
SEPARATE THINGS
Be sure that anything you do not want to be loaded into the truck is kept separate from the items to be moved.
Movers do not wish to accidentally move your keys, paperwork, or travel essentials. Additionally, personal items and high-value items you plan to carry separately should be clearly set aside. Lastly, check the list of household goods movers cannot transport for you, such as plants and combustibles.
