Take a Complete Walkthrough
There is not any better time for doing the complete walkthrough of the new house when it’s totally empty. Thus, before you set up the furniture & getting it unpacked (before unloading your moving truck), take a close look around. There are a few things that you will have to double check:
- Requested & agreed on repairs are made by its previous owner
- Everything included in a sale is there in your new house
- Everything is in proper order, which includes switches, outlets, and other fixtures
Plan to move fragile and unusual items
Movers you hire might not be qualified in moving bigger (and expensive) items, thus you might have to hire the specialty mover. Ensure you are aware about what your movers may and may not move.
Packing
Now you have the plan in place & supplies, it is the right time you start your packing process. Make sure you label the boxes with right rooms so that you and your movers will exactly know where they need to put them on the moving day.
Make sure you pay special attention when packing fragile and expensive items separately, with the clear labels. You do not want the valuables broken. When you are packing, begin with some infrequently used items, and move on to the items that you use quite often.
