FAQs
There are two keys to a stress-free move – timing and planning. It is important to start the process as early as possible. Even when you have to deal with a last-minute move, planning is important. When you have a plan set in place and diligently follow it you can rest assured that you have handled everything necessary for a smooth moving process.
Get everyone in the household involved in the move from the first stages of planning. Make sure that everyone has a role. Using the Blue Ox Moving and Storage Moving Checklist is a great way to ensure that your move involves the least amount of stress possible.
