The secret to a successful home move is organization, which includes being organized about how you meet with and obtain quotes from more than one moving company. This step ensures the company understands your situation and possessions and allows them to explain their processes to you. Hopefully, the expectations match, allowing the move to progress after you’ve selected your mover.
A professional company begins the move by preparing the departing and destination homes. They protect the wood and tile floor pathways with cardboard, cover carpeting with plastic carpet shields, and pad the banisters to protect them and avoid scratching possessions that pass by.
The packing boxes are placed in each room, and the packing crew begins using purpose-designed boxes for clothing, dishes, artwork, and other household items.
Ideally, the family that is moving properly labels the items so they can be packed for their destination, whether that involves temporary quarters or the target room at the destination house. After arriving at the new home, the moving company first unloads the largest items and puts them in place to provide space in cabinets and shelving for unpacked items. By wrapping and packing everything correctly, there should be little or no damage, and the family’s goods arrive and are available for use in the new home.
