Here's To A Stress Free Moving Day!



Here are some tips to lower the stress levels on moving day:

  1. Take your pet to a safe location such as the home of a trusted friend or family member until the hustle bustle of moving day is over.
  2. Have your mobile phone charged up in case someone needs to contact you.
  3. Keep your most precious items packed in your own bag - they may get lost or broken in the packing and removal process
  4. After the moving crew has finished loading the entire home, be sure to check the attic, basement, garage & garden shed before the truck leaves to make sure no items have been left behind
  5. Don't pack vacuum and basic cleaning equipment unless you've hired a cleaning service to spruce it up for the new occupants
  6. Be available at all times when unloading. This will assist the mover greatly in determining where to have your furniture placed.
  7. The mirrors and pictures need to be protected. The movers may add extra protection to some items, but not all.
  8. Make sure the beds are dismantled and set up in the new home as per your agreement with the movers
  9. Make sure your favourite refreshments are handy when you arrive at your new home...whether it's beer, wine or tea!
  10. Check the mover's bill carefully before you sign. Be sure to keep these and all related papers in a safe location.
  11. You made it! At the end of the moving process, relax and enjoy your favourite take-out meal!
