Things to Do Before the Movers Arrive
An hour of preparation the night before typically saves two hours of crew time. That is money as well as stress.
Clear the routes
Empty hallways, landings and the path to the vehicle. Roll up loose rugs and lift anything hanging at head height on the stairs.
Sort the parking
Reserve space directly outside where you can, and confirm any permit or lift booking with the building manager. A long carry is the most common reason a move overruns.
Pack an essentials box
Kettle, mugs, tea, phone chargers, toilet roll, hand soap, a change of clothes and any medication. Keep it in the car, not on the lorry.
Set aside what cannot travel
Petrol, gas bottles, paint, fireworks and aerosols in bulk cannot be carried. Dispose of them at a recycling centre before the day.
