When you're moving from one home to another, we know that you're likely overwhelmed. And when you start to feel flustered, it's easy to forget things and lose sight of the main goal.

Essential Documents
Keep all important documents such as passports, lease or purchase agreements, and insurance papers in a secure, easily accessible place. It's also wise to carry any valuable items like jewelry or family heirlooms with you personally. These items should be set aside well before the moving truck arrives to prevent them from being accidentally packed or misplaced.
First Night Kit
Pack a box or suitcase with everything you’ll need for the first 24 hours in your new home. This includes toiletries, a change of clothes, medications, chargers, basic tools, and snacks. Don’t forget to include essentials for children and pets if applicable. This 'first night box' should travel with you, not in the moving truck, so that you have immediate access to these essentials.
Labeling and Organizing
Ensure that all your boxes are clearly labeled with their contents and designated rooms. This not only speeds up the unpacking process but also helps your movers know where each box belongs in your new home. If possible, color-code or number the boxes and keep a list that details what each number or color signifies.
