Last minute details before you move

With your pack and loading date fast approaching, there are some simple but important details to take care of.  Check all of your records to be sure Consumers Relocation and/or you selected mover has provided you a registration number, and confirmed dates and times of the move.  Also, be sure you understand the methods of payment and the expectations the moving company understands.

Registration numbers for moves indicate that your move is definitely on the movers books, is scheduled and in most cases a driver has been assigned.  Our Consultants always follow up to get this important piece of information to insure the move is set up.  Our customers should make the same effort as well.

Confirm the pack, load and delivery dates with the chosen mover.  Your Consumers Relocation Consultant will do this, but in the event that you have worked directly on booking your move with the mover, it is important that they confirm in writing the actual dates of the move. 

You should speak with the chosen mover about your intent in making payment for your move.  If you are paying by credit card, be sure that the moving company has all of your credit card information well ahead of time.  If you are paying with certified funds be sure you understand the amount needed for payment and the movers process for accepting this. 

Finally, if you are moving alone. it is often advisable to seek a relative or friend to be present with you at the time of loading and delivering.  These times can be quite hectic,  sometimes overwhelming; and extra set of hands and eyes can reduce the burden of answering the movers questions and working with the inventory lists. 

Call your CRS Consultant to get you started and help organize your move.  These helpful hints as well as a world of other assistance can be accessed simply by having a CRS Consultant to work with throughout.

  1. Nice Blog, I am totally agree with you that call your moving company before a day you are about to move, and discuss all the things in detail with them.
