Once you have determined your needs and selected a carrier, there are a number of important
steps in preparing for a successful move.
- Planning
Establish a plan for how you will manage the move and stick to it. A moving coordinator
can be helpful in walking through a detailed plan and providing advice.
- Scheduling
It is a good idea to confirm your scheduled dates with the van line three to four weeks
before the move date. Pack, load, and move dates are important timelines to reconfirm
throughout the moving process. You should provide the mover with a spread of delivery dates;
the earliest date on which you will be available to the latest acceptable delivery date.
- Sorting
Moving provides an excellent chance to throw away, or give away, the things you'll never use.
You can give items to a friend or neighbor, plan a yard sale, or donate them to a worthwhile
charity. Set aside those items that you will be taking to your new home personally, so the
mover will not pack them in the van.
