Posted by Affordable Movers on December 21st, 2020

Once you have made the decision to hire Movers’ Coquitlam or in Vancouver, it is time to get packing and prepare for the move. It is a wise decision to hire professional movers and packers for your relocation as handling all the packing and moving by yourself is not an easy task!

Seeking the help of friends can only get you so far if there is a ton of stuff to move! A moving company can assist you in your move in a smooth and efficient manner without the unnecessary hassles. Moreover, if you plan on moving across the country to another region, a movers’ and packers’ company is the best option.

Here are a few things to take care of as you wait for your professional packers’ and movers to arrive,pack and transport your belongings:

Reduce the time needed for the move:

Since you pay your movers’ and packing company on a per hour basis, it is best to reduce the time to a minimum. This can be done by making a moving inventory. This will help you purge the items that you no longer need.

Get rid of these items by either selling, gifting or donating them. Try to do as much packing by yourself as possible as this will reduce the time spent on packaging and will only leave out the heavy lifting to the professionals.

Another good way to minimize your time spent moving is by labelling all the boxes appropriately so that there is no confusion once the move is complete.

Reserve a parking spot for the moving truck:

People often get so involved in the moving process that they forget to book a parking space for the transport truck. If you live in a big city, you may require a parking permit to get the truck parked as close to your house as possible.

Reserve elevator if you live in an apartment:

Living in an apartment means sharing the elevator with everyone in the building. Try to book the use of elevator for a particular time slot so that it is easier for the professional movers to go to and fro between the truck and your home.

Ensure that you reach your new home/ moving destination before the moving company:

Sometimes, the professionals know the address but find it hard to locate it. Being there on time before the movers show up will enable you to guide them better and welcome them to your home.
