4 Essential Items for Your Moving Day Checklist
If not organized, moving day can get out of control, fast. With so much going on, it’s easy to let this important day become a frantic sprawl to complete a wide list of tasks. Allowing this to happen will only add more stress to an already stressful experience. By following these moving tips, you’ll be able to maintain control during this overwhelming process. Here are a four essential items that should be included on your move-in day checklist.
Set up Utilities
The last thing you want is to show up at your new home and not be able to turn on lights or use kitchen appliances. You’re going to want to shower and relax on your couch in front of the TV when everything is all said and done, so make sure your utilities are set up immediately.
Double Check to Make Sure Everything is Packed
How many times have you taken a vacation, only to find that you left your toothbrush or swimsuit back home? Believe it or not, the same thing happens with a handful of relocations. Before the truck arrives, do one last scan of your house to ensure you have everything you intend on taking with you.
Reserve a Space for the Moving Truck
If you live in a house with a driveway, this is as simple as making sure nobody in your household parks in that space. If you don’t have this luxury, find some cones, boxes or lawn chairs to block off an area near your home. This way, the walk to the truck won’t be so brutal.
Inspect Items upon Arrival
Once you’ve arrived at your new home with all of your belongings, unpack your boxes and inspect each item for any damages. If you’re working with a professional moving company, chances are all of your items will be just fine.
By sticking to this checklist, moving day will be more organized and less chaotic. To ensure yourself the most stress-free move imaginable, call upon our Sacramento moving company to assist you. Call Colonial Van & Storage or fill out our online form to receive your free quote today!
