Moving Tips |
From
the years of moving, Good Movers & Storage, Inc
staff has prepared a list of moving tips, for you to
use as you prepare your move.
- For long haul moves make sure you label all
of your cartons with your name, destination city
and contact phone number.
- Consider holding a garage sale or giving
your unwanted items to charity.
- Leave your pet with a neighbor or friend
during all the activity on moving day.
- Place all packed boxes against the wall away
from your furniture, so as not to obstruct
access for your movers.
- Ensure that you declare a value on your
goods otherwise your furniture will only be
protected for 60 cents per lb.
- Make your moving arrangements as far in
advance of your moving date as possible.
- If your appliances are being moved have them
cleaned and disconnected from the power source
before the movers arrive. Defrost your
refrigerator and freezer the day before moving.
Burners on the stove should be taped securely.
- Keep a copy of your moving invoice, as most
moves are tax deductible.
- On long haul moves, ensure to check the
accuracy of the inventory taken and the
condition of each article at the time of
loading.
- On long haul moves, ensure to check off all
items and their condition on your inventory
sheet as they are being unloaded at your new
residence. Damaged or missing items must be
pointed out at this time to the driver and noted
on your inventory sheet.
- During cold weather allow your electronics
to climatize before plugging them in at your new
residence.
- Carry your currency, jewelry and valuable
documents with you. Good Movers & Storage will
not be responsible for articles of
"extraordinary value".
- Set up a specific area in your home for all
items not to be shipped and inform your movers
of this area.
- It is necessary to empty dresser
drawers of clothes, remove liquids, breakables,
books, valuables, etc. All drawers that open
like cupboards should be emptied. In special
cases where you have difficult access or the
dresser is very heavy, all drawers should be
completely emptied.
- Do not pack corrosives, aerosols, gas,
propane, paint, flammables or other dangerous
goods with your move.
- Have Good Movers & Storage, Inc pack and
unpack for you, for added convenience and
valuation coverage
