    Moving checklist: the most comprehensive moving guide of 2023

     

    • Week 1: Plan Your Move and Hire a Moving Company

    The first week of your moving checklist is all about planning and preparation. Begin by creating a list of everything you need to do before your move, including notifying your utility companies and updating your address with the post office. Our moving checklist has the exact information on how to do just that; simply by changing your address from all your utilities using Updater. Updater is an invite-only moving app that is powered by cutting-edge technology. Next, research and hire a reputable moving company that can help you with your move.

    • Week 2: Sort and Declutter

    Now that you have a moving company in place, it’s time to start sorting and decluttering your belongings. Go through each room in your home and determine which items you want to keep, donate, sell, or throw away. This process will help you save time and money by reducing the number of items you need to move. Our moving guide on the top 10 tips to move in Boston is the perfect place to read tips about decluttering.

    • Week 3: Start Packing

    With your sorting and decluttering complete, it’s time to start packing. Begin by packing items you won’t need in the next few weeks, such as off-season clothing and holiday decorations. Label each box with the contents and the room it belongs in to make unpacking easier. Here are a few other moving guide resources for your packing process:

    During week four, gather all important documents and valuables such as passports, birth certificates, and jewelry. Keep these items in a safe and secure location during your move to ensure they don’t get lost or damaged. This moving guide comes with a great 30 min free consult with one of our moving consultants

    • Week 5: Confirm Moving Details

    With your move just a few weeks away, it’s important to confirm all of the details with your moving company. Double-check the date and time of your move and make sure the company has all of the necessary information, including your new address and contact information. In case you have received professional moving quotes, now is the perfect time to confirm with a moving company & secure your moving date.

    • Week 6: Finish Packing and Disassemble Furniture

    During week six, finish packing up your belongings, making sure to label each box with its contents and the room it belongs in. You should also start disassembling furniture that you won’t need until after your move, such as beds and bookshelves. One of the most common questions we see in the moving industry is “Do movers disassemble beds?” Putting together a bed or taking it apart is not an easy thing to do. When you hire a full-service moving company, you would expect them to help with that.

    • Week 7: Deep Clean Your Home

    Now that most of your belongings are packed and ready to go, it’s time to deep clean your home. This will help ensure that you get your full security deposit back and leave the home in good condition for the next occupants.

    • Week 8: Final Preparations

    In the final week of your moving checklist, it’s time to take care of any final preparations. This may include packing a box of essentials that you’ll need immediately upon arrival at your new home, such as toiletries, a change of clothes, and important documents. You should also do a final walkthrough of your old home to ensure you haven’t forgotten anything. This moving guide won’t be complete without including the exact details about your moving permit.

    There are a few extra preparations in case children are involved in the move. We’ve put together a comprehensive video about how to move with kids below.
