Moving Tips

Check your owner’s manuals of large appliances to see if there are special instructions for moving.
Pack all of your essential items that you will need right after a move into a single box and make sure it's the last thing loaded on the truck or trailer.
Once the decision has been made to move start cleaning out the attic, basement and closets first.
Keep all your cleaning supplies, brooms, mops, etc... in one location, so you can easily find them for a final clean up after your house is packed.
Make sure you have scheduled or transfereed your cable, satellite, phone and utility services.
Cancel or transfer any lawn care, house cleaning or pet services you might have.
Mail in your change of address forms.
Defrost any freezers you have a day in advance of your move.

Packing Tips

Try to pack each room in its own boxes and label those boxes with the room name.
Put your empty suitcases to work and pack your clothes in them.
Use small boxes for books. They can get heavy fast.
Pack dishes vertical to keep them from breaking.
Use packing tape instead of duct dape.
Label both the side and top of all your boxes.
Place any small hardware like screws and bolts in plastic baggies and tape those baggies to the furniture or appliance they go with.
Pack items that you don't use often ahead of time.
Always use boxes with tops so that they can be stacked in a truck or trailer.
Always tape your boxes close. Do not interlock the flaps.
