The Ultimate Guide to Moving Checklist
Whether you’re looking for moving tips for an apartment in the city or a house on the beach, you’re in the right place. You’re probably feeling disoriented and stressed as you’re trying to figure out how to prepare for the move, but we understand! We’ve moved a thing or two, and it is a mountainous job!
Find a New Place
If you’re here, you most likely have already accomplished this but we’re going to say it anyway — if you haven’t signed a contract for a new house or apartment, this is a great first thing to do. It’ll usually give you a concrete deadline for when your home should be packed and ready to move.
Make a Packing & Moving Timeline
Once you know when and where you’re going, grab a calendar. Take a long realistic look at how many days you have to pack, update addresses, inform doctor offices, break the news to friends, etc. Being realistic is key! Obviously take into account all current life commitments, but also make sure you make room for spontaneous happy hours, movie nights, or whatever else you’re into. Unless you have to move ASAP, giving yourself wiggle room will keep your brain from scrambling into a fistful of packing peanuts.
to plan for packing, be honest with yourself and know how much packing-per-day you can manage. Here are a couple packing plans we’ve come up with:
The “Short Spurt High Intensity” packing plan. This works best if you can pack for 1-2 hours every day leading up to the day you move. Those with short attention spans benefit the most from packing in short but daily intervals. It’s also great for people that have jam-packed schedules and can’t afford full packing days. Depending on how much you have to move, you need to start several weeks or even months before it’s time to move, especially if you want to allow for “off” days.
The “Classic” packing plan. If you prefer a ripping-off-the-bandaid method, set aside several days and estimate each room will take about 3-5 hours to pack. That’s a very general time frame though. How long it actually takes depends on how many drawers, cabinets, nooks and crannies you have accumulated stuff in. Do this a weekend or two before you have to move just in case you run out of steam and leave yourself with a half-packed home.
Moving Boxes
Surprise! You need cardboard boxes. These are quite expensive when you buy them brand new, so save yourself some money here because, if you haven’t noticed, moving is expensive! You can get free used boxes from places like Target, book stores, friends that recently moved, and basically any location that is accommodating to customers.
Small Moves
Moving is never easy. There are a lot of complications involved with a change of address
What qualifies as a small move?
For example, you may have a piano that weighs 600lbs and that’s the only item you will be moving or you have 1,500lbs of moving boxes packed with some furniture. That’s perfect! try hardest to accommodate and customize your move the way you want it.
As small move experts, can offer two distinct advantages:
1. Lower cost! When you share space on a van with others, you are “sharing the cost” as well as decreasing your cost of moving. Sharing a whole truckload with other customers saves you money.
2. are trained, professional movers. You receive door to door inside delivery with full blanket service, the same as if you had a large load.
Advantages of using small moves services

In fact, low required minimum is approximately 400. For example, if you have 500 or 800 to move, will only charge you for the exact amount of pounds. This differs from most moving companies, who will charge you for the full 2,000. save you money.
Protect your furniture. Small moves are specialty. are experts at it. Each piece of furniture is wrapped in blankets and placed in vans to ensure its safe delivery to you.
