The Day of the Move

The day has finally arrived! As excited as you and your family maybe about your new home and its surroundings, moving can make everything seem uncertain. It is important to take a deep breath and try not to be stressed.

Here is a list of important things you should remember when your moving day arrives:

• Designate specific items that you need, that should not be packed with the rest on your belongings.
• If you have children, make sure that they have at least two special items to take with them for the trip.
• Make sure you remove all trash from your current residence.
• If you are using a moving company or friends and family, specify certain unloading areas.
• Make sure there are ample walkways for moving large pieces as well as boxes of your belongings.
• If you are using a moving company, reiterate those specific items that need special attention and handled-with-care.
• Remember to meet the needs of those helping in your move by supplying them with food, beverages and restroom facilities.
• If you are using a moving company, please remember to read and sign all paperwork, documenting anything that transpired during the moving process.
