Label Boxes
Kitchen, Alli's Room, Garage... Ext. This will allow your movers to quickly get the boxes to the right place at your new home. Many people will mark furniture with masking tape as well. Such as Living room coffee table, or Master Bedroom Night Stand.
Have Furniture Disassembled
Of course we can do this for you, but if you want to shave time off your move time try having beds taken apart and other furniture that requires disassembly all ready to go. Put screws and small parts in a ziploc bag and tape it to one of the furniture pieces.
Put As Much As You Can In One Spot
Some of our quickest moves happen when we get there and most of all your items and boxes have been moved to the garage and are ready to go. |

Having like sized boxes will also save you money, as it will speed up the time it takes for movers to load up the moving truck. It also creates a solid foundation that helps keep your belongings safe from moving around and falling during the drive to your new home. Below are some good examples of same sized boxes in a moving truck. |
