Prepping to move? Moving is a real headache with all that planning ang packing, what to talk about organizing everything once you’re finally in your new home with all your belongings. But first, there’s moving day itself. Follow our moving day tips to know how to make it as stress-free as possible.
If your movers don’t pack for you, make sure you finish your part of the work before they come. Their job is much easier if the house is completely ready when they are there. If they need to wait for you to finish packing you will pay for their time anyway.
Show your movers where they can park their truck, how they can best access your house, and if there are any time limitations on parking. Having years of experience they are trained to move many boxes, couches, and fragile items, so the main thing is to let them do their job. They need you to stay out of the way, sure, but they can’t be left to do it all on their own. Keep close enough so they can find you if they need you.
A moving essentials bag is a bag with everything you’ll need on moving day and a few days after at hand. You should take cash, jewelry, and prescription medications with you as well. Take things like phone chargers, toiletries, and clothes according to the weather.
Tipping movers is not obligatory, but they will appreciate it. If you hired a professional moving company, be sure to have cash on moving day for tips. Generally, the standard tipping depends on how long they worked, how many mistakes they made, and how satisfied you are with their service. Providing snacks and drinks is very humane and will keep your moving team motivated to move you quickly and efficiently.
Following these tips will help make sure you are going according to your moving plan. Be prepared that something unexpected may happen but you can easily manage this. You can ask a friend to come too to be with you on moving day, even if you’ve got movers doing all the difficult work.
