A good move runs on a timeline. Three weeks out, finalise your mover and budget. Two weeks out, declutter and start packing rarely used items. One week out, handle utility transfers and address changes.
Keep a dedicated folder for your moving quotation, inventory and invoice. Photograph valuable items before packing for your records.
On the day, keep cash, documents and valuables with you, supervise the load, and confirm the delivery address and timing with your mover.
