Tips to Prepare for a Move in Seattle

Moving in Seattle requires lots of work, planning and organization. If not handled correctly, you may find yourself amid uncontrollable chaos, which will surely alter not only your nerves but your whole family's. Timely preparation ensures your move goes smoothly, painlessly, and it can save you lots of money too!

Seattle moving companies strive to educate their customers so that they know what is expected of them prior to a move. This guarantees the movers can work fast and efficiently while protecting your possessions and saving you money.

Follow these tips and get ready to experience the best and most fun moving experience in Seattle:

1. Two months prior to moving, start looking into Seattle moving firms. Ask for estimates, insurance provided, services offered, and check their references. Calculate possible expenses you will have to incur into when moving; like pet care, nanny, hotel costs, and home deposit. Create a file to save all the information you need to keep under control.
2. At the same time, start sorting through your belongings, and decide what you will keep and what you will dispose of. Make a list of the things you are keeping, so that you have a guide to confirm that everything has been packed and is going where it should. Sort the rest for: donating to charity, selling, recycling, or throwing away. You may even find things you would like to give to someone close to you, maybe a friend or a family member. Contact your insurance agent to transfer medical, property, fire, and auto insurance, and notify your children's school, so that they can transfer the records when necessary.
3. A month and a half before the move, sort your personal things and organize your information. Get all your records together; be it medical, dental, or any other sort. Start changing your address on subscriptions and common mail you receive. End your memberships at clubs or organizations and start to get to know your new community. Get information on shopping districts, hospitals, police, fire departments, parks, maps, and schools.
4. Five weeks before the big event, begin gathering packing materials like boxes, tape, labels, markers, bubble plastic, foam, etc. When getting the boxes, choose only two or three sizes and make sure they are professional moving ones; this ensures the movers can stack boxes more efficiently, maximizing space in the truck and saving trips. Use small boxes for valuables, as they protect these better. Include the whole family in the process and make it exciting for them to help. This is also the time to register kids in their new schools and to find out about pet requirements in your new community, if any. Get all your pet's vet records ready to transfer to the new vet.
5. At this same time, contact your choice among the researched Seattle moving firms to schedule your move, change your address with the post office, and mark a transfer date with the utility companies.
6. Three weeks before, make sure all library books and borrowed materials have been returned. Pick up anything that was being cleaned, stored, or repaired. Hire a nanny for moving day, so that you are certain your kids will be cared for and safe during the process.
7. Two weeks before, start packing the things you seldom use. Check drawers and make sure every dresser and shelve is free of loose objects. Seattle moving fims will not move any furniture that has loose belongings in it. Call so that utilities at your new home are connected. Call banks to transfer your accounts. Dispose of flammable items and poisons.
8. One week before, pack all your belongings and clean the house thoroughly. Every packed box must be correctly labeled on top and side with the following information: the room it belongs in and what's inside (in one word).
9. Everything should be packed in correctly labeled and sealed boxes when the Seattle moving company arrives on the day of the move in order to guarantee a fast and efficient service, otherwise, you may have to pay more or reschedule the move. Electronics must be all unplugged and boxed by then. Seattle moving firms charge by the hour, thus, the faster the movers can work, the less expensive your move will be. There should be someone present during the whole loading time at your home and someone to welcome the movers at the new place. Communicate clearly with the movers to tell them what your instructions are and inspect the boxes with them while they make the inventory.
