Plan Ahead

Create a moving checklist: List all tasks from packing to notifying utility companies.

Book your moving day as early as possible: this will ensure you can focus on the task in hand. At Vertus Logistics we recommend booking your removals team as least 30 days in advance.

Declutter Before You Pack

Sort your belongings: Decide what to keep, donate, or discard.

Sell unwanted items: Use online marketplaces or local sales.

Recycle responsibly: Dispose of old electronics and materials properly.

Pack Smart

Label boxes clearly: Include room names and contents.

Use quality packing materials: Protect fragile items with bubble wrap and sturdy boxes.

Pack essentials separately: Keep toiletries, snacks, and important documents handy.

Handle Utilities and Addresses

Update your address: Notify banks, subscriptions, and government agencies.

Transfer utilities: Arrange electricity, water, and internet setup before moving day.

Redirect mail: Use postal services to ensure you don’t miss important correspondence.

Prepare Your New Home

Clean before moving in: Make sure your new space is fresh and ready.

Check safety features: Test smoke alarms, locks, and lighting.

All Set
