MONTHLY MOVING TIP: Pack smarter, not harder!
Did you know the way you pack can actually make a BIG difference in how smoothly moving day goes? If you’re packing yourself, here are a few things our movers love to see when they arrive:
📦 Use boxes whenever possible. Boxes stack easily in the truck and are much quicker and safer to move than lots of loose items.
👕 Keep hanging clothes on hangers. You can use contractor trash bags or wardrobe boxes, both are the easiest ways to move clothes straight from your closet to your new one, no folding, stuffing or unpacking a pile of clothes!
🧺 Totes are great too, just don’t overfill them. Make sure the lids close completely so they can be stacked safely.
🏷️ Label your boxes by room or by color! Write “Kitchen” “Primary Bedroom” “Kids Room” etc., or try color coding! Put a blue sticker on your boxes and a matching blue sticker on the corresponding bedroom door. It makes unloading much faster when our crew knows exactly where everything belongs.
And one of the biggest ones…
⏰ Have everything packed BEFORE the movers arrive. Because we bill hourly, having boxes sealed, labeled and ready to go means our crew can get straight to work, saving you time and money!
Moving soon and need help packing? We can take care of that too!
