Local Movers’ Moving Tips

Make your reservations for movers at least two weeks before your moving day.
Use wardrobe boxes to make closets easier to pack. Clothes in drawers can be placed in suitcases.
Always stack dishes upwards when packing.
When interviewing moving companies, make sure to ask if they are insured and how they charge.
Pack important and sentimental documents separately to be easily accessible, including children’s health records, passports, family records, insurance information and photo albums.
Remember: the heavier the item, the smaller the box.
Don’t use used boxes. You don’t know if the box will be strong enough to support your possessions during the move.
