Moving Tips


Getting ready for your move:

Blake and Sons will be happy to do the complete job for you. However, if you assist in getting ready for the move, it will save the movers time and you money.

The following procedures will be beneficial:

  • Appliances: drain, empty, disconnect, unplug, tape doors and cords
    (some require interior packing of movable parts)
  • T.V.s: disconnect aerials & fold up, tape cords (for all electrical appliances)
  • Stereos: secure arms and turn tables, and remove compact discs
  • Inform movers of: delicate, aged, weak pieces, loose legs, broken pieces, loose veneer, etc…
  • Mark boxes: (examples) fragile, delicate, glass, this end up; also mark them for placement in the new home
  • Tape boxes: tape bottoms and tops
  • Drawers: empty dressers, desks and end tables of breakables, pens, paper clips and other items that could jam drawers; clothing, bedding and linen can be left in drawers
  • Organize: attics, toolsheds, and garages; these areas are very time-consuming for the mover
