- Make sure all boxes are sealed and similarly sizes to help allow for maximum efficiency
- Pack books and heavy items in small boxes to avoid boxes breaking open
- Make sure all furniture is empty of all contents before movers arrive
- Examine parking in front of residence to ensure the truck may park as close as possible on move day
- Make sure there is a path for large furniture items (sofas, dressers, bookcases, cabinets)
