Moving tips

  • Clean out storage areas and closets a month or two before moving so you can eliminate excess items.
  • Arrange somewhere safe for pets during your move so they do not escape through an open door.
  • Make sure there is ample room for the moving truck to park without blocking access points or traffic.
  • Pack an essentials box or bag with daily items such as clothing, medications and toiletries. Keep important documents, jewelry and money with you in a secure location.
  • Order boxes and packing paper approximately one to two months before your move.

Packing tips

  • Mark boxes with a room number or name so they are placed correctly in your new home.
  • Pack heavy items on the bottom and lighter items on top. Pack snugly to eliminate movement.
  • When packing dishes, place wrapped dishes in the box on edge rather than stacking them flat.
  • Place small items in drawers in plastic bags, including undergarments and jewelry.
