Checklists

ARE YOU READY TO MOVE?

  • Pack all loose items. This will simplify your removal and make it run more efficiently.
     

  • Tape and seal all boxes. And remember, fill all boxes to the top to ensure items don’t move around. Identify each box with a room name
     

  • Pack all loose glass. Pack the glass microwave plate and any glass shelving from wall units etc.
     

  • Empty the refrigerator. Do this before the removalists arrive.
     

  • Disconnect all electrical equipment. Rolling up the cords also ensures no unnecessary accidents during your removal.
     

  • Save packing. Bed Side Cabinets, Chest of Drawers, Filing Cabinets and Freezers can stay full. Just make sure all breakables have been taken out.
     

  • Disassemble any furniture. Was that desk built in that room? Make sure all items that need to be disassembled are (including beds), this takes care of any unnecessary hassles on moving day.
