Moving Day Checklist
Moving day goes smoother when you prepare in advance. Use this checklist to stay on track.
The night before
- Confirm your moving window with the crew
- Pack an essentials bag (chargers, medications, snacks, toiletries)
- Defrost the refrigerator if you are taking it with you
- Label boxes by room and note fragile items clearly
Morning of the move
- Clear walkways and protect floors in high-traffic areas
- Do a final sweep of closets, attic, garage, and storage units
- Keep payment and ID accessible, but secure valuables on your person
- Take photos of electronics setup before disconnecting cables
Before the truck leaves
- Walk through every room with your checklist
- Test faucets, lights, and appliances if they stay with the home
- Leave keys and access instructions as agreed with the new occupants or agent
After arrival
- Check major furniture and labeled boxes first
- Set up beds and essentials before unpacking everything else
- Report any concerns to your mover while the crew is still on site
