You Quick Moving Day Checklist

Your belongings are packed, labeled and ready to go, and the movers will arrive any minute–but you can’t help but worry you’re forgetting an important detail. Moving is an emotional and stressful time, and it’s easy to forget to return that leaf blower to your neighbor … or your keys to the landlord. Don’t stress, take a look at this moving day checklist to be absolutely sure you haven’t forgotten anything once you’re on the road.



Wake Up Early – By moving day, you probably have the big to-dos taken care of, but it is still helpful to wake up early enough to take care of last minute tasks before the movers arrive. Even if you did a great job tackling your moving checklist before the main event, you will want to enjoy one last morning in your home before you say goodbye to it for good.

Take Care of Last Minute Errands – Stop by the dry cleaners, drop off any library books, and make your last round of goodbyes. You will enjoy more peace of mind knowing all those nagging tasks are taken care of and the loose ends are tied up.

Pack Your Immediate-Use Belongings – Put together a bag of clothes, electronics, toiletries, keys and other items that you will need during your travels and upon arrival to the new house. Think of this like a carry on bag of sorts (without the restrictions of course!).

Take a Final Lap Around Your Home – Once all the boxes are packed into the truck and you’re getting ready to say goodbye, take one final lap around the house. Double-check the cabinets to make sure nothing was left behind.

Greet and Guide The Movers – When your movers arrive greet them and show them around. It’s best if you stick around while they are moving so you can answer any questions along the way (another reason to take care of those last minute errands before the professional movers arrive!)

Arrive At Your New Home – You have arrived! Guide the movers and show them around the new space so they know where you want everything to be unloaded. After a long day, it’s important not to forget to provide food and water for you professional movers as well.

Only Unpack The Essentials – Don’t worry about your ski gear or your precious collection of DVDs just yet. Only unpack the essentials so you can enjoy your first night in your new home. Think bedding, pajamas, cookware if you plan to cook dinner, and maybe the TV if you want to just kick back after a long day.

Tip Your Movers – Before your movers leave, don’t forget to tip them! It’s an easy thing to forget, but professional moving is in fact a service that we tip, so don’t skimp after all their hard work.
