How to plan your move

How to plan your move

Every move is stressful. You worry about the change of surroundings and about the move itself. Will everything go to plan? Will anything get damaged? How should I plan the move? Our customers ask us these questions all the time – and the last one is the key to a successful move.

Good planning is the foundation of success in many areas of life, and moving house is no exception. At 123Przeprowadzki we pay particular attention to organising our work well, and we are happy to share our experience with you.

Planning your move: a checklist

These tips will help you plan your move and keep the risk of problems to a minimum:

  • Book a removal team for a specific day and time – as early as you can,
  • Get hold of boxes and the packing materials you will need,
  • Use the move as an opportunity to declutter and sort out things you no longer need,
  • Once you know the date, book a day off work,
  • Arrange childcare for moving day – it is best if children are not present during the move, as this saves time and spares everyone extra stress,
  • Let your building manager know about the planned move,
  • Reserve a parking space for our truck as close to the entrance as possible,
  • Remember to register your change of address and update your details everywhere it matters (post office, ID card, passport, vehicle documents, cable TV, driving licence, bank, employer, phone provider),
  • Arrange in advance to transfer your phone line to your new address,
  • Let your family and friends know your new address.

Once the date is set, our moving day checklist will help you on the day itself.
