Properly Packing Boxes Keep in mind that your movers will more than likely inspect your boxes for safety reasons. On moving day, be sure to single out which boxes require careful handling as you go through your inventory. Movers will also point out any boxes they think aren’t properly packed. If this happens, the mover will likely suggest that the boxes in question need to be repacked or reinforced. And label your boxes with which room they are to go into at destination. This will help during the unpacking as the boxes will be in the correct area.
Your Relocation List Once you’ve decided that you’ll be moving, it’s time to plan out your steps by making a list. In the same vein as a to-do list, you should start separating different tasks such as packing order, contacting your primary care provider, transferring records, discontinuing utilities, and everything else by a weekly breakdown. Don’t be afraid to add more things as you go along, and by the time moving day arrives, you’ll be prepared to move in without any reservations as to whether or not you’ve missed any crucial details.
Removing Your Bicycle's Chains It's recommended that you disassemble your bicycle into its individual parts before moving. The process of removing your bike's cables is simple. You'll want to take the cables out of the bike's stops. In order to slacken the brake cables, undo the releases on the arms or at the levers depending on what kind of bicycle you have. You can slacken the shifting cables by putting chain in the big cog combo before shifting down. Once all of the cables have been removed, you can disassemble the rest of the bike.
Transporting Medicine Before you pack your medicine for moving, seal all of the caps with masking tape. Naturally, your medicine bottles should be packed in an upright position. For certain drugs such as insulin, exposure to heat can cause it to lose potency. Talk to your pharmacist and inquire about what measures you can take to prevent this. It's recommended that you transport your own medication.

They send unskilled workers who show up late, stand around smoking all day, damage your home and belongings and THREATEN YOU! The owners are just as bad, if not worse -- they are immoral, unscrupulous, unprofessional thieves that you should NOT ALLOW IN YOUR HOME! If I could have rated them in *negative* stars, I would have. Beware!!! 1.0000

From the first phone call through two semis of stuff moved (yup, two), Amenity was a pleasure to work with. When I got sick the week before the move, Sandy and Sarah came to my house to help with packing. They calmly came in and took care of everything! The moving crew was efficient, helpful and pleasant to deal with. All our furniture arrived safely and ended up where it was supposed to. I hope I don\'t have to move again any time soon, but would not hesitate to use Amenity again! Highly recommended. 5.0000

After talking on the phone 3 times with the office Girl and reiterating what I items I had to move with every conversation, I thought the estimate she gave would be accurate. WRONG The movers show up, moving slow, and after beginning stated that their paperwork from the office didn\'t include much of my belongings!! They told me they were out of time and would have to stop mid-move or I would have to pay hourly. To move a 1 bdrm. apartment less than i mile it took 71/2 hrs. and cost me almost a thousand dollars. They also broke two items and ripped a new leather couch. When I called to complain - I was treated rudely and dismissively. I would NEVER use this bunch of thieves again. BUYER BEWARE 1.0000

The guys that came out to help me move were polite, friendly, and fast. They showed up on time and the entire move from the west suburbs to a high-rise in the city was 3 hours! They even packed a few smaller items for me and moved the stuff from my car as well. Everyone I spoke to at the company was friendly and informative. 5.0000
