Movers Coming? Here’s What to Do Just Before and Just After

Your movers will be coming within the next few days, and you still have a few things to check off of your To Do list. Here are a few suggestions from us on what to do and when to do it. That way, when the movers arrive at your Plymouth MN home, you’ll be ready to go. And when your movers leave after moving you in, here are a few recommendations on what to tackle right after they’re gone.

Take the time to visit your new home, if you can, and give it a good scrub down before the movers show up with your belongings. This gives you a chance to clean everywhere, unhindered by furniture and other items. You’ll be able to get into those hard-to-reach corners on the floor and on the walls. It’s the perfect opportunity to vacuum all over and scrub the floors. That way, you won’t have to worry about cleaning right after you move in.

When the cleaning is over, go to the local grocery store and stock up on the basics: bread, milk, eggs, drinks, etc. Store them in the refrigerator at your new home (if the power is turned on). That way, after the movers leave, you and your family will have a few things to munch on while you’re getting settled into your new home. And driving to and from the grocery store gives you a chance to get to know your new town!

Finally, after the movers are gone, take some time and hang up the window treatments. You will be able to get to your home’s windows without having to go through the trouble of moving around heavy furniture.

Movers Help Maple Grove Businesses' Moving Day Less Stressful

There's no sugarcoating it. When you're trying to relocate a commercial business, things can get hectic. Depending on the number of employees, a move may take a lot of time and effort to coordinate. One way to greatly reduce stress on moving day is to hire professional movers. Maple Grove business owners and managers can execute an efficient move with just a little bit of help. We're going to cover some tips for the big move.

Coordinate Employees

Make sure you have a detailed plan for your employees before the movers get there. It may be a good idea to let non-essential employees have the day off, or stager their start times. Too many people can sometimes be more of a hassle than anything else. Have one main point of contact who coordinates the employees. That way, if someone has a question, one person will be able to answer all of them and have things under control.

Label Everything

Label, label, label. And when we say label, we mean everything. You'll thank yourself in the long run if you take the time to label every box, key and possession. They say that you don't realize how much stuff you have until you go to move, and the same is true in an office. You'll be amazed how many copies of the same thing are in your office. If you are diligent about labeling, you'll have a good chance of the movers getting everything to its proper place at the end of the day.

Clear Pathways

Though it may seem logical to make piles of boxes in the hallways or lobby, don't. You'll want to keep all walkways clear. There is a particular way in which our movers pack the truck. What this means for you is that items that are located in certain areas may have to be packed before items in another area. If the hallways are cluttered, it may be hard to move larger items to the truck in an efficient manner.
