Moving day is quickly approaching, and you want to be sure everything goes smoothly. Fortunately, reading this blog will help you prepare for the movers. Some of this may seem apparent; you're a smart cookie if it does. However, if you have any questions not covered in this blog post, we encourage you to contact us. We're always here to help.
Crowd Control
Sometimes moving means a lot of things going on at the same time. Yard sales, gifting furniture to family and friends, or having people over to help with everything else. These are all common scenarios when moving and the moments that make life. Moving shouldn't cramp your style, so if any of this sounds like you, consider splitting it up with a schedule so you don't have so much going on that nothing gets done. You can only fit so many people in a space, and we want to ensure a safe environment during your move.
Pets
It's always important to prioritize safety, especially when it comes to your pets. If you have any pets, it's essential to plan ahead and arrange for either your family or friends to look after them while you move or book a short-term kennel or vet boarding. Pets may get overly excited when they meet new people, and changes in their environment can cause them a lot of stress, which may lead to aggression. We want to ensure that the move is safe and happy for everyone involved, and this is one of the steps you can take to do that. For hourly services, a simple pet carrier may be sufficient. If you have any questions, consult our professional staff.
Parking
When our movers arrive, they will be coming in a large truck that will need some room. If you're located in a neighborhood single-family home, you'll want to ensure nobody is parked in front of your home, as this is typically where we will park larger trucks. If you're in an apartment building, you may need to identify designated areas for delivery trucks or notify the management that there will be a truck present on the days moving will be taking place.
