What To Expect on Moving Day

What to Expect for Moving Day

Tensions are running high, emotions are flaring, your house is crammed with moving cartons stuffed with your belongings. It is the night before moving day and the last thing you need is to have another unforeseen task come your way. The day of the move does not have to be exceedingly stressful with the proper preparation and movers of Prescott AZ. On the day of the move-out here is what you can expect to encounter. 

First and foremost, make sure that you are getting an adequate amount of sleep the night before to ensure that you have the proper attentive energy required on moving day. After waking up, have a good breakfast to provide your mind and body with the fuel it needs for the day ahead. Next, do a once-over on every room before the moving team arrives to your home. This will often include checking drawers, closets, and underneath, cupboards to make certain that you are bringing all of your belongings with you. Before the movers arrive, make sure to set your personal and travel bags aside (items that you do not want loaded into the truck). These items will come with you in your personal vehicle. 
Helpful Hint: Labeling each box before the truck is loaded will help the movers streamline the off-load process by being able to reference the label rather than asking you where it goes. This will be exceedingly helpful later in the move. 

When the movers arrive, designate the items that are to be put in the truck. Heavier and larger pieces will usually be the first items to be loaded into the truck. Depending on the size of the house and obstacles, sometimes the moving boxes will be loaded first. Our team will come prepared with furniture dollies, wraps, and blankets to mitigate any damage to personal items. When the truck is loaded and the building is emptied, make sure that you conduct a final overview of the baron home before leaving. This is a great time to say your last goodbyes to your home before heading out to your new location. 

The movers will drive the truck to the final destination to be unloaded. The movers will not be able to access the home without the owner/resident there with the keys to open the door. Once the door is unlocked, the truck will be offloaded into the house and placed in their proper rooms. For an additional fee, our team can also pack and unpack the boxes. We can do all of the disassembly and assembling for furniture as well. As a final note, make sure to anticipate delays like traffic, or needing to pack or repack an item you may have forgotten about. 

In conclusion, sleep well the night before the move. Make moving day easier by preparing with labeled boxes. Do not expect everything to go perfectly as planned and try to enjoy the process as much as you can. Hiring our locally bonded and insured
