Moving Tips

Always remember: the heavier the item, the smaller the box.
Always stack dishes on their side when packing. Not flat!
Never use printed newsprint to wrap fine china. The black print can be tough on your china.
Always use packing tape. Refrain from using duct tape. It's impossible to get off.
Label all boxes on the top and on the side.
Pack important and sentimental documents separately so that they are easily accessible: Children's health records, passports, family records, insurance information and photo albums are good examples.
Don't throw out your children's favorite things prior to the move. Kids can have a hard time dealing with the change brought on by the move itself.
For larger appliances, check your owner's manuals to ensure if there are special instructions for moving.
When you disassemble furniture and other items, make sure to tape all parts to the main base.
Small boxes are best for books. They can get heavy, very fast.
Wardrobe boxes make closets easier to pack and organize.
Start packing items with less importance such as those you will not need to access immediately.
Moving companies can't transport hazardous materials such as gasoline, bottled gases and other flammables, ammunition and explosives. It's the law.
Try and avoid mixing items from different rooms in the same box; it can be confusing.
The last things on the truck are usually the essential items you will need right away. Make sure they're last.
Always pack and unpack breakables on top of a padded surface.
Always tape boxes shut for safety and security.
Clean out closets, the attic and the basement as soon as you've made the decision to move.
Make a "survival closet" of things you'll need for the last cleanup before you move out – broom, dust cloth, dust pan and mop.
Remember to get plenty of snacks and refreshments for move day.
Schedule times one week prior to the move to ensure the cable, phone and utilities are disconnected and your final meter readings are taken.
Mail in your change of address forms one week before you move.
The day before your move, make sure to defrost the fridge and leave the door ajar.
