A successful relocation process is all about properly arranging and planning your moving tasks.

When you have enough time to research and find a reputable moving company, to compare moving estimates, to pack and prepare your goods and to make necessary preparations for the pick up date, your relocation process will be a successful one.

Let’s take a look at how you can create a simple task list that will help you to better arrange your upcoming move.

 

Combining the Different Moving Preparation Aspects into one Efficient Moving Task List

 

  • Your task list should begin approximately eight weeks before your actual pick up date.

 

  • The first task, which may take a few good days to complete, should be to inventory your goods and come up with a list of items. This will help you both with packing procedures and with getting more accurate moving estimates.

 

  • The second task should be to decide whether or not you would like to do the packing yourself.

 

  • If you decided to do the packing yourself, the next task should be to create a packing list. Go room by room and write down all the items of furniture that will require packing and the estimated number of boxes to be packed.

 

  • With all this useful information at hand, you can now contact between three to five reputable moving companies and request estimates.

 

  • Gather all the estimates and prepare a chart that will compare all moving prices, terms and conditions.

 

  • Approximately four to five weeks before your actual move date you should make your decision about which moving company you would like to use. Make sure that the mover sends you an understandable contract which details all the terms and conditions as well as possible extra fees.

    Alpha was fantastic! Leading up to the move, they communicated well and were very accommodating when we needed to change our move date, add additional items, … More etc. On the day of the move, the 4-man crew was prompt and worked quickly and diligently to disassemble and wrap furniture and load all our possessions onto their large truck with care. We had many heavy boxes and bins, several of which were located in a basement down a narrow staircase. The crew had a great attitude and asked questions when necessary. Compared to other moving companies, Alpha was more reasonably priced and well worth it. I would enthusiastically recommend Alpha for any local moving needs!
