Peachtree Movers Do's and Don'ts Make Your Next Move a Easy One.

Here are some definite Do’s and Don’ts from Peachtree Movers for your next Atlanta move.

DOs:

DO have a layout plan for the new space prior to move day

DO measure your furniture to ensure it fits in the new space

DO use boxes with lids – you want to be able to stack everything and a lidless box makes that difficult

DO tape all cardboard boxes – you want the box to be sealed

DO label the top and sides of each box

DO disassemble any furniture when possible to save room on the truck

DO label your disassembled furniture or tape instructions to it for easy re-assemble

DO pack light items (pillows/blankets) in large boxes

DO use suitcases and garment bags to pack clothes

DO account for traffic time during move – calculate approximate traffic with Georgia’s State’s DOT 511

DON’Ts:

DON’T put items from several rooms into the same box – stay more organized with separate boxes for each room

DON’T use boxes without a lid – you want to be able to stack on the truck

DON’T use duct tape – use packing tap

DON’T pack heavy items (like books/pictures) in a large box that will become too heavy

DON’T book your move for the end of the month when it is the busiest (although we can fit you in!)

DON’T water plants 2 days prior to move day

DON’T move on a Atlanta Falcons game day
