What should I do to prepare for my move?
Start by creating a checklist that includes tasks like decluttering,
packing, and notifying important parties like utility providers. Begin packing non-essential items early and consider hiring
professional movers if needed.
How far in advance should I schedule my move?
It's best to schedule your move about 6 weeks in advance, especially
during peak moving seasons (spring and summer) to ensure availability and better rates.
However, we understand things don't always go as planned so reach out to us and we would be
happy to assist in any way we can.

coverage.

What items should I not pack?

(like paint and chemicals), perishable food, valuable items (like jewelry), and
important documents (like passports and birth certificates).
How can I save money on my move?
Save money by decluttering and selling unwanted
items, packing your belongings yourself, and choosing a mid-week or off-peak
moving date. Also compare quotes from different movers.

Use plenty of packing materials such as bubble wrap,
foam peanuts, or packing paper. Each fragile item should be wrapped individually,
and they should be placed in a sturdy box with cushioning to prevent movement.
How do I handle moving with pets?
Ensure your pets are safe and comfortable during the move by
keeping them in a designated area away from the chaos. Consider arranging for a pet
sitter or boarding them during the moving day

On moving day, ensure that you have a clear schedule,
communicate with your movers, and do a final walk-through of your old home
to ensure nothing is left behind.
