Moving Tips
-
Plan to spend the entire day at the house. Last minute decisions must be made by
you. Don’t leave until after the movers have gone.
- Send the kids to a friend’s house for the day.
- Stay with the moving van driver to oversee inventory.
- Tell packers and/or driver about fragile or precious items.
- Make a final check of the entire house- basement, closets, shelves, attic, garage,
every room.
- Approve and sign Bill of Lading; if possible accompany driver to the weigh station.
- Double check with driver to make certain moving company records show the proper
delivery address for your new house. Verify the scheduled delivery date, too.
- Give driver phone numbers both here and in new community to contact you in case
of a problem.
- Get complete routing information form the driver and phone numbers so you can call
the driver or company while en route.
- Disconnect all utilities and advise the real estate agent who sold or is selling
your house.
- Lock all doors and windows. Advise your real estate agent and neighbors that the
house is empty.
