In this blog entry, the professional Charleston residential moving service team here at NoFlex Moving will detail the essential pre-moving tasks to take care of before your professional moving team arrives at your property.
Administrative Duties
Take care of all administrative and paperwork based tasks related to your move in advance, including:
- Transferring utilities to your new address
- Updating insurance information
- Updating your mailing address with the post office
- Transferring children to new schools
- Selling unneeded appliances
- Applying for moving insurance for high-value objects and items
Logistical Tasks Related to Moving
While our professional Charleston moving team will handle all of your transportation and storage needs, it’s still important for you to let your landlord know that a moving company will be working in your apartment. You might need to request parking permits for our moving truck, or ask your landlord where our moving team can park. If you live in a building with elevators, you might be able to reserve one of the elevators for the use of the movers.
Prep for Moving Day
If you decide not to opt for our professional full-service moving which will include packing, unpacking, and off-site storage, you will need to focus on a few additional tasks, including:
- Packing your belongings in sturdy boxes
- Breaking down equipment, furniture, and appliances
- Clearing pathways in your home for movers
- Securing pets in a safe area or bringing them to a trusted friend, neighbor, or relative
- Setting up a water area on very hot days
- Preparing a bathroom for the moving team to use
