Packing Tips

  • Start early! Begin packing away non-essential items a month before your move.
  • Put saran wrap over your utensil trays so items don't fall out when moving.
  • Put trash bags around your hanging clothes so you don't have to take them off the hangers.
  • Label everything! You will forget later, we promise.
  • Take a picture of the back of electronics so you know exactly where the wires go when you hook everything back up.
  • Pack the items you will need first in a clear plastic bin so you can easily find them.

Moving Advice
Two of our team members just made a move and they have some advice for you.

  • Start early. Secure your new property weeks in advance of your move out date so you can have a stress free, easier moving process.
  • Make sure to transfer your utilities in time; don't procrastinate. Consider weekends and holidays when planning.
  • Make a checklist of who you need to change your address with and do not forget your driver's license.
  • If you have a yellow star in the corner of your Florida license, you can change your address online. If not, you must change your address in person at the DMV.
  • Make sure you know which day the last day of the month is so you can plan accordingly.
  • Line up your moving help or truck in advance as availability is low in spring.
