Make sure you always tape your boxes at the top and the bottom. This way you can feel at ease knowing your boxes are secure.
Make sure you label your boxes by the items they contain. For example, if you had glass, you probably would want to label something like: Glass/Fragile. Also to help the movers, you probably want to write a simple note like: Top Load only!
Most people would say newspaper, but newspaper can leave stains and damage some of your valuables. Therefore, towels and linens may be more ideal to use for your fragile items.
To avoid confusion, you can use an empty closet or a certain confined area in your home to store your packed boxes.
Your antiques are probably one of your most beloved possessions. You want to keep them safe at all times. Your best option would be to reserve a climate controlled storage unit. This way your antiques will be kept safe.
As you may know, storage space can fill up pretty quickly. That’s why it’s imperative for you to rent your storage unit at least 1-3 months in advance before you actually need it. Contact us and we can setup a storage unit or Portable Storage Container (PODS) for you.
If you would like to move your clothing from your dresser draws before the move, you certainly can, however, it’s not necessary.
If you have unique items and tools, it will be best to bundle them and keep them together. For example, keep all of your fishing poles with all fishing equipment, all garden tools with garden equipment, etc., etc.
When it comes to packing and moving very delicate items, it is essential to use an abundance of bubble wrap, towels, linens, and anything you can to protect your items from breaking.
The best way to pack these types of items is to use linens or blankets for added protection.
When it comes to moving precious items like jewelry, you should always move it yourself. Our company will move your furniture, electronics, appliances, and a wide variety of other household items for you.
When it comes to moving file cabinets, you should empty them. This way they will not be as heavy to move. This makes it easier for Texas Best Movers & Storage to do an efficient job.
Our movers will do everything in their power to keep you, your family and themselves safe. That’s why At Texas Best Movers & Storage our company will not move flammable materials like gas, propane or other flammable and dangerous materials.
A simple way to do this is pack a box of cleaning supplies and leave them under the sink. This way they will not get moved and you can clean after all furniture and items are out of the house.
It is highly advisable that you transfer all your utility services in advance. You may want to keep your phone on until the day you move. This way movers and other people can contact you if any issues arise.
You can ask your local post office for how to go about changing your address. You can also access the information online at www.usps.com to find out more details. You should change your address 3-5 business days before you move, so that any important mail is arriving at your new address once your move is finished. All mail at the previous address will be forwarded to your new address.
