Packing in a rush the night before is the number one cause of a stressful move. Here's a realistic timeline.
2-3 weeks before
Book your movers and get a fixed quote. Start decluttering — sell, donate or discard anything you won't need at the new home. Begin packing items you rarely use: seasonal clothes, books, decor pieces.
1 week before
Pack non-essential rooms fully — guest rooms, storage areas. Start packing your kitchen, keeping only daily-use utensils and crockery aside. Label every box by room and contents.
2-3 days before
Pack everything except what you need for daily living. Prepare your "first-night" box separately — documents, chargers, medicines, a change of clothes, basic toiletries.
Moving day
Only last-minute items (bedding, current-day clothes, essential toiletries) should be packed on the morning of the move itself. Everything else should already be boxed and ready for the crew.
Let the crew handle the heavy and fragile items
You don't need to pack furniture, appliances or fragile/valuable items yourself — our trained crew handles dismantling and proper packing of these as part of the move.
