To: 7332 Wrenfield Ave, Hollycrest (2 front steps)

A week or more before

  • [ ] Pack all of your own boxes except the kitchen. We are packing the kitchen.
  • [ ] Set aside anything we do not carry: paint and propane.
  • [ ] Decide which valuables and medications you will carry with you yourself. We ask that they do not go in boxes.

The day before

  • [ ] Empty the fridge and unplug it. We ask that this be done 24 hours before the crew arrives, and this part is not something our crew does.
  • [ ] Finish packing so boxes are closed and taped. We bring boxes, tape, and blankets if you need more.
  • [ ] Plan where Pickle Waffle will stay on moving day. She is scared of strangers, so we recommend a closed room away from the stairs and the front door.
  • [ ] Keep your 2010 GMC Acadia (black) off the driveway tonight so the driveway is clear when the truck arrives.

Morning of the move

  • [ ] Park your Acadia on the street, not in the driveway, so the truck has room.
  • [ ] Keep Pickle Waffle in her closed room before the crew arrives.
  • [ ] Clear the path through the apartment and down the stairs.
  • [ ] Have your valuables, medications, and anything you set aside with you.
  • [ ] Be ready between 8:00 and 10:00 am. If you have questions, call 234-555-0150.

After the move

  • [ ] Walk through the new home with the crew lead and point out where the boxes and furniture should go.
  • [ ] Check the Bechstein upright piano placement before the crew leaves.
  • [ ] Keep Pickle Waffle in a quiet room until the doors are closed and the crew has left.

What the crew will do

  • Pack the kitchen
  • Provide boxes, tape, and blankets
  • Move the Bechstein upright piano (already on your quote, charged separately)
  • Carry everything down the stairs at pickup and up the 2 front steps at delivery

What we ask of you

  • Pack your own boxes other than the kitchen
  • Empty and unplug the fridge 24 hours ahead
  • Keep valuables and medications with you
  • Keep the driveway clear for the truck
  • Do not include paint or propane. We do not carry them.

Questions for the owner

  • Is there anything the customer should do about parking permits or reserved street space at either address?
  • What payment methods do you accept on moving day?
  • What should the customer do if the crew will be delayed?

What it does

Turns the details of a booked move into a clear checklist the customer can follow before, during, and after the crew arrives. It uses only what the company knows about the job and asks about anything missing.

Use it when: Use when a moving company needs to write a moving day checklist for a customer, such as "make a checklist for the customer," "what does the customer need to do before the movers arrive," or "write up moving day prep for this job."
