1. Be There or Have a Representative
You or your representative need to be around the entire day to respond to the movers' questions as well as complete certain responsibilities to facilitate the move, such as signing paperwork. You should ask a responsible and dependable friend, relative, or neighbor to represent you if you're unable to be there. It's always best to move out of the movers' way, since they possess the specialized knowledge needed for the move. Just make certain they can access you when they require clarifications or answers.
2. Clear the Route
Travel the route the movers can take from every one of the exits to the moving van ahead of their arrival. For instance, you can walk from your garage door, front entry, or backyard gate to the moving truck. Get rid of all obstacles in addition to tripping dangers on these paths outside and also inside your house. Clear any kids toys, cables, or furniture on all these routes. Blow away or perhaps sweep fallen leaves, rubble, or downed branches on the routes. Eliminating these kinds of dangers and obstructions makes certain movers will move freely, even when they can't see the way ahead of them when they transport big items or walk backward. In addition, ensure there is sufficient, convenient parking for the moving vehicle.
3. Give the Movers a Tour
Provide the professional movers a tour of your property after they arrive. Indicate things that require additional care and those that might be challenging to move. Discuss if you have a no-pack area. You can move the belongings you intend to relocate yourself to a room or area you can close off. If you move them to a room, tape a "Do Not Pack" sign on the shut door.
Show the movers the bathrooms they're able to utilize. You might also show them where they're able to grab snacks as well as water. Tell them of all the exits to increase their options when moving your things to the moving vehicle. You can also show them any hazards they could encounter. It's also wise to have another walk through just after they've loaded the moving truck to ensure they loaded every single thing.
4. Keep Pets and Children Occupied and Out of the Way
Make sure your youngsters are out of the movers' way while they pack and move your things. You might ask a family member, friend, or neighbor to watch them. If they'll be together with you, ensure they've got something exciting to do, for example play with toys, coloring books, playing video games, using handheld gadgets, or watching movies. You should watch over the youngsters, ensuring they remain safe.
Should you own pets, plan how you will keep them out of the way. They may escape your home if movers leave your doors and gates open. You should think about boarding your animals for moving day or leave them with a dependable friend, family member, or neighbor.
