Moving Tips
So you’ve decided to book with us at Villa Local and Long Distance Moving to help with your moving process! Before you schedule that service date, be sure to check out these helpful tips to help you prepare your space for the move.
Here are some things to remember before moving to your new space
DECLUTTER YOUR BELONGINGS
Before we arrive, be sure to trash whatever you don’t need or want to bring to the new property for a fresh slate at the new place.
DECLUTTER YOUR BELONGINGS
Odds are, you have items hanging around your current space that are either junk, broken, or otherwise unusable.
UPDATE YOUR ADDRESS
Before relocating, don’t forget to update your new address online with your utility companies and the post office.
UPDATE YOUR ADDRESS
A good rule of thumb to remember is to schedule disconnected utilities at the old place one day after move out, and start up utilities 1-2 days prior to move-in at the new place.
ORGANIZE BEFORE BOXING
Some of your belongings may need special treatment, such as fragile dishes.Try wrapping these items with bubble wrap or for extra protection.
ORGANIZE BEFORE BOXING
If you’ve booked packing services with us, be sure to properly label these items so our crew has the heads up before we box everything for the move.
PLAN FOR TRANSPORT OF ANIMALS
If you have furry friends you’re bringing along they’re going to need some extra care and planning ahead to ensure they arrive to the new destination safe and sound.
PLAN FOR TRANSPORT OF ANIMALS
Make sure you have a dog or cat carrier ready so Fluffy isn’t jumping all over the car during the ride!
CLEAN OUT PROPERTY BEFORE MOVING
To ensure you get the most of your security deposit, it’s good to do a deep-clean of your old place before you drop the keys off. A clean work area is better for our crew.
