In your initial communication with the moving company, be honest and upfront about your individual situation and expectations for the move. Be sure to discuss your timeline and any details the moving team might need to know. Once moving day arrives, your professional movers will be prepared for the day to ensure no errors are made during the process. However, it's important to provide contact information in advance, so you can be reached if any questions or concerns arise throughout the move. If you will be out of touch at any time during packing, loading or unloading, be sure to have someone onsite at your residence who you trust to make decisions on your behalf and with whom the moving company can communicate in your absence.

Especially when your time is limited, a walk-through can help you organize and focus on the most important items to be moved. Together with the movers, you can build a plan for the move to ensure it goes off without a hitch. In addition to making note of any unique challenges you may need to plan for in advance, you should:
Each move is a little different from the last, which is why it's important to ask questions. Professional movers are experienced, which means they have knowledge and expertise when it comes to dealing with a wide range of unique situations. So, don't hesitate to voice any concerns right up front before your moving day arrives. If you have items that are of particular importance or require special handling when packing and unpacking, be sure to communicate that with the movers to ensure no problems arise during the move.
Prior to your moving date, you'll want to make sure everyone involved with the move is aware of pertinent details. Scheduling requirements, addresses, and who to call in an emergency are all important pieces of information that should be readily available to the movers. Make sure you or someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf can be reached by phone in case of an unexpected event.
