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
