Planning Your Move: 2 Weeks Prior to Your Move – 1
While for some people this phase is really exciting and they start counting the days left until the big day, for others the last two weeks are the most stressful. This when you start to really look forward for the move date, and for the experience to be behind you. Have no worries, you are going to make it. Your move day will eventually arrive. However, there are still things to do. There are few more tasks that you must complete within the next 2 weeks in order to assure a smooth and relaxed experience on the day of the move.Make It Easy for Your MoversThe main purpose of this task is to allow your mover an easy access to your home and prevent additional charges such as long carry fees and stairs fees. This will also assure a smoother and safer move.Reserve an ElevatorThis factor is relevant mostly to those who live in a high-rise building. Reserve the elevator for your move date to allow the movers to use it instead of the stairs. That will prevent stairs feesArrange for ParkingArrange for parking for the moving truck. If you live in a narrow street or if parking permits are required, complete these arrangements beforehand. These arrangements will prevent long carry fee, an additional charge that applies in case the distance from your residence to truck exceeds given limit (usually 150 feet). ChildrenDepending on your children’s age they may be a great help on the big day but they may also be a distraction if too young. Here are your options:Babies and Infants: Babies and infants are likely to distract you on the day of the move. Try to make arrangements for them to be out of the house, with relatives or friends. If you cannot arrange for them to be out of the house, arrange for them to be with a babysitter. Children 5 years and olderIf your children are old enough to deal with the move and be helpful, have them help on the day of the move with the simple tasks. Backup Your Computer A lot of your important information is probably stored on your PC. Start preparing for moving your PC and back up all your computer files on a removable media such as a CD, DVD, etc. Consider taking your back up files and disks with you.For more information visit http://www.moveeast.com Free guides are available
