Moving Checklist

Let's face it - moving can be a very exciting, yet not the most pleasant experience in the world. You probably are excited about relocating to a new residence, but dread of a thought about all the headaches that come with moving.

That's why it is important to plan in advance for your move. Start planning early. Do not leave everything for the last minute. Planning is the key to a successful and stress-free moving experience.

Use the following moving checklist to ease your move day, and avoid unnecessary stress and confusion on your move day.

4 Weeks before Your Move

  • Do your shopping for a moving company as soon as you finalize your moving date. Booking your movers 4 weeks in advance will ensure you get a quality mover for the date and time you prefer.
  • Purchase all necessary packing supplies. You can also have a moving company do that for you. In this case, you will not need any moving supplies.
  • Start cleaning your attic, garage, basement, and similar areas.
  • Get rid of unwanted items: donate to charity and/or arrange a garage sale.
  • Make arrangements to transfer school records.
  • Visit your local Postal Office and get Change of Address cards. This can also be done online at USPS website.
  • Notify your bank(s), mortgage company, car finance company, magazines, newspapers, insurance companies and other organizations of your move date.
  • Owner's manual for all your appliances will be very helpful, if possible to obtain, on your move day. If you do not have them, try finding and printing them out online. Use a search engine to locate the manuals.

1-2 Weeks before Your Move

  • Set aside cleaning items you will need to do final cleaning when the movers leave your premises. You can also inquire your moving service provider if they provide cleaning services, or hire an independent cleaner if you do not want to clean your old house yourself.
  • If you are packing yourself, label all the boxes with room names to make sure they are placed where they belong to. Clearly mark all the boxes and containers on top and the sides. This will make your settling into your new home easier.
  • Contact your electricity, gas, water, phone and cable companies and make disconnection arrangements. Request return of deposits, if applicable, and schedule connection of all the services at your new residence. It is a good idea to leave the phone service on until the next day of your move.

The Week of Your Move

  • Mail your change of address forms.
  • Clean your stove.

1 Day before Your Move

  • Clean your refrigerator; do not forget to defrost and dry.
  • Have some cash on hand.
  • If your neighbors were nicer than pain in the butt, do not forget to say Goodbye!

Have a safe move!

Milestone Relocation did an amazing job with my move last week. Move took under 3 hours and I haven't found any damages nor scratches on my walls or furniture. Price doesn't bite either - as a matter of fact, they have a really straight forward and no surprise price structure.

I will be recommending Milestone Relocation to my friends and relatives whenever they need speedy and friendly moving help.

Many thanks! quotes

I used these guys for my recent move. It was a huge move, 5 people and 2 fully loaded trucks. Although I wasn't moving far, the volume alone made it a very complicated move. I wasn't too eager for a moving day to come.

Josh, Tom and Alex arrived on time, at 9am, which falls within 8-10am slot I reserved. They came fully prepared: the truck was loaded with blankets, wrap, dollies and other supplies and tools.

Everything was properly wrapped, my furniture was disassembled quite efficiently. When I saw them load the truck, I realized I was worrying for no reason: these guys were more than capable to handle my move professionally!

I am extremely satisfied with the services provided by Milestone Relocation Solutions, and couldn't be happier I trusted these guys with my move. Great price, excellent service, friendly office staff. What more can you ask for? quotes

My daughter needed to move for the 4th time in less than 15 months. I called milestone and was very happy to watch while the two man crew carried everything from the 3rd floor to the truck--no elevator. They had everything loaded promptly and unloaded even faster--the new apartment had an elevator. I was very satisfied and would use them for the next move. Thank you! Julie. quotes

Moving is not easy and god help if the movers are rude or just unprofessional . I chose this company coz they provided me with the best rate and the day and time i wanted ...My whole moving was just awesome. Frank enough; there was no tension or hassle throughout my entire move.The crew was polite, very quick in their work, and they were very careful with my stuff ..the employees were the nicest movers I've met. quotes

I requested same crew that moved me last time since I was really satisfied with the work Mike and Tommy did. However, I had to settle for John and Randy instead, but as it turned out, that made no difference. The move went as good as my previous one. I thought perhaps the first time I got lucky, but my second moving experience with Milestone proved they have really good crews. No matter what crew is assigned to your job, seems like one team will nail it down better than the other. THANK YOU. quotes

It's my second successful move with this company. Just like last time, movers were amazing. Price was right too, considering the work that was done. Thank you again! quotes
