Checklist for Researching Long Distance Moving Companies


1. Do your research and compare quotes from several long distance movers. Ask for liability coverage and verify their licensing and certification to make sure that they are credible and have the right insurance policy to cover any possible damages during the move. 

2. Pack a survival kit
Pack a bag with all the items that you will immediately need when get to your new home: essential documents, toiletries, snacks, chargers, sleeping bags etc. Consider this as your “moving day survival kit” and try not to unpack them until everything else is settled in place. 

3. Create an inventory list
Create a detailed inventory of all your belongings so you will know exactly what will be going with you on the move. Take pictures of all large items like furniture before packing them up so you can remember how everything should look after it is unpacked at the new location.

4. Change address & transfer utilities (or cancel)
Change your mailing address in advance or submit a request to the post office for a temporary hold on mail delivery while you are traveling between homes if needed.  Transfer every relevant service subscription such as internet, cable, phone bills to help avoid missing any due payments in case delayed services can occur due to location switch or simply disconnect them if canceled instead of transferred. 

5. Clean out perishables from Fridge/Freezer
Empty out the food from your fridge/freezer a couple days prior to leaving and donate non-perishable groceries or use them in before traveling so nothing gets wasted! Don’t forget to free up some space by transferring important perishables into an ice chest where appropriate during transit time especially when traveling with pets or children on board. 

6. Have car inspected before trip if you are driving too
It’s important to have your car looked over by professional mechanic beforehand to ensure a reliable ride. Get familiarized with driving the route & distance between locations ahead of time to make] the entire moving process a better experience overall!  

7. Schedule pet transportation ahead of time (if applicable)
If applicable, properly plan ahead for pet transport depending on type or size such as small birds / reptiles, etc... Keeping documents organized including their updated rabies vaccination records is also important when moving to another state or across the border. Set up appointments weeks in advance for a local veterinarian visit no later than a day before your departure for a full checkup mostly focusing on preventive health care.  Hire specialized personnel for larger animals during relocation such as horses multiple cats or larger dogs & goats when necessary.
