Move Planner

Four Weeks Before Your Move

• Look throughout your home and begin choosing what will be  moved and what will not.  Can consider a garage sale for the  things you do not need.
  
• You may want to begin packing things that you do not use  anymore.
  

Three Weeks Before Your Move

• Plan to begin finishing the food left
  
• May want to check and/or service appliances which will be moved.
  

Two Weeks Before Your Move

• Look toward giving us a call so that we may have a truck  available and we can come up with an accurate estimate.
  
• Also dispose of things that can damage your shipment, such as: 
  cleaning products, liquids, acids, etc.
  

One Week Before Your Move

• Begin transferring over all accounts to your new location, such  as: banks & credit cards.
• Arrange for disconnecting of your television.
  
• Arrange connection of utilities in the new home.
  
• May be a good idea to draw a floor plan of the new location so  that you may be able to arrange, on paper, where all the  furniture should go so that it can save time upon arrival.
  
• Arrange to have cash or money order ready for paying the driver  on the day of delivery.  Also credit card is an option, however,  that has to be paid prior to the day of moving.
  

The Day Before Your Move

• Call Chicago Moving Men to confirm your reservation, and have  address and phone number ready to be giving to the driver.
  
• Put all kitchenware, such as plates, cups, break able items all in  boxes last so that we load them last and unload them first.   Therefore, there is less chance of breakage.
  

The Day of Your Move

• Please be available all day to answer questions, be there with  the workers when loading inventory, sign the bill of lading, and  confirm your new address.
  
• Finally check all the rooms for the last time before departing.
