Part 13 (Day before you move)

The Day Before M-Day 

Catch the cats. If you don’t catch the furry critters today, they’re likely to work out very early tomorrow what’s going on and take off. Remember to use a cage for both yours, and their, safety.

 Finish packing by tonight. You should only have three open top boxes before you go to bed:

• Your Survival Kit which you will use in the morning.

• Your Tool Kit with all of the disassembled screws, bolts, etc.

• One last box you couldn’t fill completely

 A few last empty boxes. Have last minute empty boxes ready to pack:

• Your bedding and Manchester

• Your few last minute kitchen items like coffee machine, toaster etc

• Your fridge and freezer (although an Esky is far better suited)

• TV cables, DVD player and set top box

Check the house.

• Every room in the house

• Every cupboard and every draw (there’s always one that’s been missed )

• All storage areas (cellar, attic, basement)

• Carport

• Sheds

• The entire perimeter of your property outside

 Making your move more efficient. To make moving more efficient in the morning for us removalists

• Make sure all doorways and hallways are cleared of items so we can carry furniture direct to the truck without having to move items out of the way

• Stack yourboxes up in a few corners of the house to reduce clutter.

• Ensure all boxes are stacked two to three boxes high or four to five foot high

• If you have small items you don’t want moved, put them in one corner of the house, or in a walk in robe or bathroom.

• If you have large items that are not to be moved, put obvious labels on them.

Good luck tomorrow - although you won’t need it because you are professionally prepared to move now.

If you have decided to move yourself we wish you luck
