10 Things You Should Do Before Moving Day


Moving into a new home is exciting, but preparing for the big day can sometimes feel overwhelming.


At Friendly City Movers, we've helped customers navigate all sorts of moving situations, and one thing we've learned is that a little preparation can make a big difference.

Here are ten things you can do to help make moving day run smoothly.


1. Start Packing Early

Begin with seasonal decorations, spare bedrooms, and belongings you rarely use.


2. Clearly Label Your Boxes

Write the destination room and a brief description of the contents. It will make

unpacking much easier.


3. Declutter Before You Move

Why pay to transport things you no longer need? Donate, sell, or recycle unwanted items before moving day.


4. Set Aside Your Essentials

Pack a separate bag with medications, chargers, toiletries, important documents, and a change of clothes.


5. Keep Walkways Clear

Removing obstacles from hallways and entrances helps your moving crew work more efficiently.


6. Prepare Your Appliances

Empty and clean appliances. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for disconnecting and preparing them for transportation.


7. Arrange Parking

Make sure there's sufficient room for the moving truck at both your current and new home.


8. Take Photos of Electronics

Before disconnecting your television or computer, take pictures of the wiring to make setup easier.


9. Communicate Special Requirements

Have a particularly heavy dresser, fragile antique, or oversized sofa? Let your movers know beforehand.


10. Choose Movers Who Care

An experienced, organized moving team can make a tremendous difference in your overall experience.
