Confirm your moving date with Eazy 2 Move
Get rid of everything you don’t want to be moved
Book a few days off work either side of moving day, if needed

Buy packing supplies and boxes if you are moving on your own
Change addresses on all important letters and documents
Notify everyone who needs to know about your move, including friends, family and your workplace
Make a list of everything you are moving so you know what to look for at your new place

Pack everything that isn’t essential, e.g. the majority of plates, pans and cutlery
Eat frozen foods to free up the freezer. Avoid buying lots of food at this point
Contact your doctor and dentist to get copies of all records and arrange to transfer files to the new health care providers

Hire a temporary storage unit if you think some things may not fit inside your house.
Speak to your new neighbours and ensure there is room for a moving van on your new road

Confirm with the solicitor and estate agents that the move is going to plan
Pack all valuables and all important documents and keep them safe at all times
Maintain a tidy home. Keep everything in order, including the bedding and personal items you’ll need on your trip.
Make sure to include a bag/box of essentials such as clothes, blankets, food, and toiletries so that you don’t have to search through all of your belongings when you first arrive at your new home
Find out when you will receive the keys to your new home

Make sure you wake up early, at least 4 hours before your move
Pack all bed sheets and take curtains down
Unplug any appliances you are taking with you, dryer, washing machine, oven etc
Keep any essential boxes separate so that they don’t get packed away
Tell your removal company what needs moving and what doesn’t need moving
Leave all the sets of keys as arranged for the new owners
Make sure everything is in order. Conduct a walk around to double-check and then rest. We’ll handle the rest
