Moving checklist
Use this checklist to prepare addresses, access, packing, fragile items, building rules, and move-day priorities before your DAY BY DAY crew arrives.
Preparation
New England moves often include tight streets, old homes, apartment rules, elevator windows, and weather. A little preparation makes the whole day feel more controlled.

Move-day essentials
These are the details that make the estimate stronger and the crew more prepared.

Furniture that needs pads, stretch wrap, disassembly, doorway care, or extra routing attention.
Room labels, priority boxes, assembly needs, and where large pieces should land at delivery.

Questions
A few practical answers before you book your estimate.
Book as early as you can once your date is realistic, especially for weekends, month-end moves, elevator buildings, closing dates, and summer moves. Earlier booking gives more room for crew planning and building coordination.
Keep IDs, keys, chargers, medication, documents, laptops, valuables, closing paperwork, pet items, and anything needed the first night separate from the truck.
Confirm elevator reservations, certificates if required, loading zones, parking rules, move windows, and building contact information before the crew arrives.
