  • Sort items into move, donate, sell, and discard groups.
  • Measure large furniture and narrow doorways.
  • Begin gathering sturdy boxes, tape, labels, and protective materials.

One week before

  • Confirm access at both locations.
  • Label boxes by room and note fragile contents.
  • Separate important documents, medicines, chargers, keys, and valuables.
  • Send the mover details about stairs, elevators, parking, and unusually heavy items.

The day before

  • Finish packing ordinary household items.
  • Create a clear path through hallways and doorways.
  • Charge your phone and keep the mover's contact information available.
  • Set aside an essentials box that stays with you.
