1. Be Available or Have a Representative
You or your representative need to be around the whole day to answer the movers' questions or perform selected duties to assist in the move, like signing paperwork. You should ask a trusted and dependable close friend, relative, or neighbor to represent you if you can't be there. It's always best to get out of the movers' way, as they possess the professional skillsets needed for the move. Just make sure they are able to reach you when they need clarifications or answers.
2. Clear the Route
Walk the route the movers will take from every one of the exits to the moving van ahead of their arrival. For example, you can walk from your garage, front entrance, or backyard gate to the moving vehicle. Remove any obstructions as well as falling hazards on these routes outside as well as inside your home. Clear any toys, wires, or household furniture on each of these pathways. Blow away or perhaps rake fallen leaves, rubble, or fallen branches along the walkways. Eradicating these dangers and obstacles ensures movers may move unhampered, even if they are unable to see the path before them when they transport big items or move backward. Also, make sure there is adequate, convenient parking for the moving truck.
3. Provide the Movers a Tour
Provide the professional movers a tour of your house when they arrive. Discuss items that need to have additional care and those which might be difficult to move. Indicate should you have a no-pack area. You should move the items you plan to relocate yourself to a room or place you are able to close up. If you move them to a room, tape a "Do Not Pack" sign on the closed door.
Show the movers the bathrooms they're able to make use of. You may also show them where they are able to grab refreshments as well as drinking water. Let them know of all the exits to increase their possibilities when moving your items to the moving vehicle. You may also point out any challenges they may encounter. You should also conduct another walk through just after they've loaded the moving truck to make sure they packed every single thing.
4. Keep Pets and Kids Busy and Out of the Way
Be sure that your youngsters are out of the movers' path while they pack and move your belongings. You might ask a relative, close friend, or neighbor to watch them. If perhaps they'll be at hand, make sure they've got something exciting to do, for example play with toys, coloring books, playing video games, using portable electronics, or watching movies. You need to keep an eye on the children, making sure they remain safe.
In the event you own domestic pets, plan how you will keep them out of the way. They can escape your home if movers leave the doors or gates open. You should consider boarding your pets for moving day or leave them with a reliable friend, family member, or neighbor.
