1.Before you start packing, select the range of packing supplies that you will need to make the job easier.
You will need protective wrap for your delicate belongings, bubble wrap is the ideal way to protect your electrical items such as T.V and Stereo, or particularly delicate items such as crystal.
2.Each time you pack a box, use your marker pen to label where they are to be unloaded and also write the contents on the side.Always stack plates upright on their sides, making sure you wrap them individually in tissue and clearly mark “Fragile” on the outside of cartons.
3.Keep boxes to 40 lbs or less. Put heavy items in small boxes and light items in big boxes.
4.if you have big dining table,remove legs, pad and tie together. Put nuts and bolts in a bag and tape under tabletop.
5.Empty, defrost and drain the the big appliances(fridge,washing mashine....)
Finally,on the moving day:
1.Record all utility meter readings (gas, electric, water).
2.Stay with moving van driver to oversee inventory of goods.
3.Give moving van driver directions to new home and numbers where you can be reached prior to delivery.
4.Review carefully and sign bill of lading and inventory, and keep your copy in a safe place until all charges have been paid and all claims (if any) have been settled.
5.Make final walk-through of house, including cellar, attic, wardrobes and cupboards, to make sure they are empty.
6.Lock all windows and doors, and drop off keys with Estate Agent or new owner.
