You are ready to move into a new home. You have made all of the appropriate arrangements, chosen a Brooklyn moving company you can trust, done a walk-through with an agent to get an accurate quote, reserved your day and even began to prepare for packing. What you can expect on the actual day of your move varies based on what services you have requested, but there are some basic things to expect.

Expect your move to be on time. Professional Brooklyn movers are on time and they appreciate if you are ready for them when they arrive. If you are paying for packing services you should still do some prep-work including removing fixtures from walls and unplugging appliances if you want them to be moved. Make sure you are prepared to do a brief walk-through with your movers to discuss any potential issues. If you are packing yourself make sure that you use sturdy boxes and everything is labeled clearly.

Expect your belongings to be safe. A Brooklyn mover probably has quite a bit more experience than you when it comes to packing and transporting belongings. Trust that the movers are using appropriate packing techniques and allow them space to do their job. That being said, you should not leave movers alone in your residence. At any point they may have questions about your preferences and you should be around to answer them.

Don’t expect your items to be put away. Even if you are paying a moving and packing company to unpack your belongings at your final destination they will most likely not end up in their final position. Movers are trained to unpack boxes to any flat, stable surface which usually means countertops and floors. This is to protect your belongings from unstable surfaces. You can help by moving dishes from countertops to shelves as movers unpack them.

Working with professional movers is intended to make your experience faster and less stressful. The best thing you can do is prepare for the movers and trust them to do their job in order to make your move go smoothly.
