Moving Tips
Moving Musical Instruments
Your musical instruments should be cleaned before packing. If you have any instruments that can be disassembled into individual parts such as a detachable mouthpiece, be sure to do so. Also, consider investing in a hard case for your instrument. Soft cases are great for carrying instruments, but the sturdier hard cases are better for loading and damage prevention.
Loading the Trailer
If you’re loading your boxes into a truck, be sure to get the heavier items inside first and the lighter items towards the back of the truck. This will prevent your truck from being unbalanced. Also, load the truck a quarter at a time and fit everything as tightly together as possible.
Banking
Have you visited your bank yet? Be sure to make all of the necessary accommodations before you leave, such as transferring and closing accounts.
Separating Boxes
Be sure to separate any boxes you plan on transporting yourself and mark “Do Not Load” so your movers will know.
