Things Your Movers Wish You Knew

Moving to a new homeBy Julie DeLong, A-1 Freeman Moving Group 

Should you be moving and hire a professional moving company in Tulsa to help, there are certain things that can be done and also other things that you should not perform to hasten the task. A smooth move results from everybody working together, which of course means you should know when you ought to lend a hand and when you should get aside.
 

Following are things that your moving company wants for you to realize.

1) Notify the Movers of Heavy Items

This specific point should be covered when you're getting your moving quote, and it’s super significant, so it is worth bringing up. If you have got bulky pieces, such as a grand piano, fridge, or perhaps hot tub, that must be moved, make sure and convey that to your moving company in Tulsa. Certain items make require additional preparations, equipment or men to move, hence it’s not a wise decision to “surprise” the professional mover in Tulsa with unplanned things.

2) Start Preparing for the Movers Arrival

Do you live within a private community or even an apartment building with an elevator? Can the moving truck easily obtain access to your home? Take a minute in advance of moving day to consider the important points of the place that the moving van will park and what the route back and forth from the truck may resemble. In the event that you have to get a parking or elevator permit from your building administrator, make certain and accomplish that far ahead of time.

3) Finish Packing Before Moving Day

If you decide to do your own packing, be sure that it will be done prior to moving day. That indicates that all the boxes are taped up and adequately labeled. To make tasks go even faster, neatly pile all your filled cartons in a central place in your residence, like the garage or even the great room so that the moving company crew can easily load them directly onto the moving van. Professional tip: Do not ever use masking tape for your cartons. Apply packaging tape instead.

4) Don’t Pack Heavy Things in Big Cartons

There are guidelines for what to place in which size boxes for a reason. Belongings that happen to be weighty, such as books, will need to go in smaller cartons. Pieces which happen to be reasonably lightweight, like pillows and blankets, can go in larger cartons.

5) Intend to be Present on Moving Day

You or someone who you know and put your trust in have to be around for the complete moving day should your movers have questions regarding the things they should and shouldn’t be moving. Plus, a responsible grownup must be present to sign all the mover’s paperwork.

6) Let the Movers Get the Job Done

You might think that you're helping if you assist to move the fridge, but it is often better to keep out of the way. You might direct the movers to the appropriate rooms as well as respond to questions, but over and above that, let the professional movers in Tulsa carry out the work so that things will go as quickly as is possible.

Best. Move. Ever!
Very pleased with the overall respect and care the men gave to my possessions. Even mailing me very quickly the only thing lost in transit. Would recommend to anyone needing a long distant move.
