  • Contact or visit your local Post Office to obtain a Change of Address form. You can also obtain this form online at the postal service website by visiting www.usps.com.

  • This is the right time to take a look at what you own, and decide what must go and what can be left behind, such as old books, magazines, broken items and old toys. Remember, adding more weight to your shipment will cost you more money.
  • Organize your move by deciding and making lists of what items you will not transport, what items we will move and what items you will move yourself.
  • Make a decision on who will do most of or all of the packing. It is a good idea that you let the movers do most of the packing. Movers know the best methods for keeping items safe and secure as this is what they do for a living day after day.
  • If you do most of the packing or all the packing please refer to our packing guide. Ask your estimator for further details about handling unusual and delicate items and begin preparing those items that are not frequently used.
  • Contact utility providers (e.g. telephone, gas, electric, cable TV and trash collection) at new and old locations with your moving date to make arrangements for connection, disconnection and disposal.
  • Complete banking arrangements in old and new location and transfer any funds to your new bank if necessary.
  • If you are moving interstate, check requirements for new driver’s license and auto registration in your destination state.
