Packing tips

If you have record and plates albums, pack them vertically on their end. Don’t pack place flat and stack them
- Cherished items
If it is a cherished item of yours, take it with you in the car. If, however, you decide to pack them, make sure you place blankets or sheets between them to protect them
- Lamps

- Fridge
Before you load them, make sure that you clean the inside of your refrigerator thoroughly. After you clean and dry it, using a handful of charcoal, coffee and baking soda in a sock or nylon stocking. Place them inside so the interior smells fresh
- Plants

- Keep your phone book
Take your phone book with you. It will make things easier for you to call your former hometown residents or businesses, in case it is needed.
- Preparing your family
Get your kids involved
Have your kids write their names as well as the new address on the cartons from their rooms. This way, they will become familiar with their new street and town
- Help your pet to relax
Make sure that you keep your pet calm and away from all the activity on the moving day. Arrange for a family member or a friend to watch them at their house
- Remember the essentials
Pack all of the items that you will use immediately in one box. Ask your mover to load it last so the box will be unloaded first. Items such as snacks, coffee, flashlight, cups, towels and cleaning supplies will be needed early on.
