MOVING TIPS
*************
Here are some things to think about as you prepare for a move:
Summer is "peak" moving season. If you can be flexible about when
you move, don’t wait until the summer. Also, the first and last days
of the month are extra busy. Specify the exact date you want to move
and when it will be convenient for an agent to visually survey your
household and prepare an estimate.
Tour your house before the agent arrives. Check from attic to basement
and determine what will be moved and what will be discarded. Show
your agent everything you will be moving.
If you plan to do the packing yourself, start collecting suitable
containers and packing materials
Set packing goals and deadlines. Have all packing complete by moving day.
Notify the post office that you will be moving. Provide them with
a forwarding address (temporary or permanent).
If you are being relocated at your company’s request, find out what
portion of your moving expenses will be paid by the company. If your
company has a written moving policy, ask for a copy.
Dispose of all flammables such as cleaning fluids, aerosol cans,
fireworks and matches. Drain the fuel from your power mower and
other machinery. Discard partly used containers of any substance that
may leak. Empty the water from your steam iron.
Obtain a written appraisal of antique items to verify their value. Don’t
wax or oil wood furniture before moving, because some products may
soften the wood, making it vulnerable to imprinting from furniture
pads.
Unplug all electronic equipment such as television sets, home computers,
stereos, etc. 24 hours in advance of a move so they will be at room temperature
on a moving day. Moving a TV set and other electronic equipment in which
heat is still retained could cause internal damage.
