Moving home or office can be very stressful. Naturally, there are many things to think of. Here are some helpful tips leading up to the big day.
Two Months Before Moving:
➡Obtain written quotations from reputable moving companies, preferably members of the PMA (Professional Movers Association) with AMOSA accreditation, and make your selection.
Insure your consignment at replacement value.
➡Supply the moving company with loading and delivery addresses, and details of obstacles that may complicate the moving process, eg. staircases, long carry (more than 20 metres), weight / height restriction in townhouse complex, cul-de-sac, low-hanging trees.
➡Arrange transfer of telephone, electricity and water.
➡Discard items that you no longer need, and pack items that you seldom use.
➡Compile an inventory of packed items, and label the boxes.
➡Measure your new home for curtains and appliances.
➡Arrange kennelling for your pets: moving is a stressful experience for them. If your journey will be a long one, contact your veterinarian for pet sedatives, or let Cape Express Removals arrange transportation with a professional animal mover.
➡Start using up frozen food.
