Assuming you know the technicalities, physical activities and financial burden involved in move. Still you need to have a vigil on every step of move because once you left the source station and arrived at destination, you won’t be having sufficient time to sort out the issues. So it is better to plan the strategy of move and complete your works step by step. Though, you will get complete assistance from any of the Manhattan Moving Company, but you should have some preparation on individual level.

You need to have a questionnaire for asking from the concerned company but before it, you should manage the loading details. You should segregate the fragile and non-fragile items you need to take along. After segregating the items, you need to take action as follows:-

  • Disconnection(s): You should ensure that your electricity connections, telephone connections are lawfully disconnected before you leave the station. These works are time taking and hence you need to take a start, well before your moving date.  Apart from the above, you should also liaise with the schools of your kids to get a transfer certificate. This document would be required at destination for continuing their education. In case, you are residing on rent, you need to manage your property before you move.
  • Storage: It is quite obvious that you are not able to take complete belongings in one go. In this scenario, you need a place where the left over property can be kept safely. Moving companies provide necessary storage to the customers. You should decide the space of storage containers according to the left over belongings. It is possible to ask moving and storage facility from two different companies. Though, if you hire both the services from a single moving company, you get a better discount. Either your moving cost is slashed or storage cost. You can toggle between the two.


The above mentioned are major functions you need to discharge to complete a move. But apart from the above said formalities, you also need to ask few questions from Manhattan Moving Company.

  1. Ask whether the mover is properly licensed: You need to ask the movers whether he has proper license from the government. If the mover is insured, you can get the insurance of your belongings. Otherwise, you should switch to some other moving company.
  2. Ask, will the mover do itself or entrust someone else: This should be the prime question that whether the mover will manage the things or outsource you job. It has been experienced that third party doesn’t has the emotional attachment with your belongings and they just need money. You may face loss of your belongings during transit. Later you can also face the insurance amount.  Better to check before official hiring.
  3. Ask whether the mover was involved in some different job: This is your right and duty to ask, whether the mover was engaged with other job in recent past. It has been seen that many other business houses registered themselves as movers. While they don’t have proper licensing and experience of relocating.
  4. Ask whether the Manhattan Moving Company will provide additional packing material: You should ask from the mover that whether he will provide extra packing material for adding more protection. Though, many companies provide the same on minimal payment but it depends upon the cost effect involved.
