Moving Day Checklist

• Be on hand when the movers arrive.
• Discuss the delivery arrangements fully with your mover.
• Have beds stripped and ready to be packed.
• Save your energy - let the moving crew disassemble goods.
• Read the Bill of Lading before you sign it.
• Tell your mover how to reach you at your destination.
• Keep in contact with the mover's agent at your destination while you are in transit.

Delivery

Make sure the mover knows how to contact you to schedule actual delivery. If you cannot be reached at destination, the mover may place your shipment in storage to avoid delaying other shipments. This can mean additional charges for storage and handling.

Upon delivery, check your goods for damage. Do not sign the inventory until you have inspected your furniture and the exterior of the cartons.
