Ultimate Moving Checklist – What to Do & When

Moving soon? Most people forget the key steps until it's too late. Here’s your moving checklist in under a minute.

Eight weeks before, declutter your home and start reaching out for quotes. At six weeks, order packing supplies and box up things you rarely use. Four weeks out, confirm your mover, update your address, and pack your main rooms. Two weeks before, finish packing non-essentials, set aside your documents, and plan time off.

During moving week, pack a small bag with clothes, toiletries, and your charger. Clean the place and prepare for the final walkthrough. On moving day, walk your movers through the house, double-check every room, and head out.

After the move, unpack the bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom first. Or skip the stress and let "iBox Moving" take care of everything. Follow us for more real-world moving tips.

Moving Tips & Guides

Storage Tips explained in our moving guide

Storage Tips: Step-by-Step Moving Guide

Why Storage Matters During a Move

Whether you’re downsizing, in between homes, or just need extra space, proper storage can protect your belongings and make moving smoother.

1. Choose the Right Type of Storage

Decide between short-term and long-term storage. For valuables, consider climate-controlled units to avoid damage from heat or moisture.

2. Label Everything

Use waterproof labels and list contents on each box. Number your boxes and keep a reference list, so you can find things later without digging.

3. Use Strong Packing Materials

Choose sturdy boxes, plastic bins, and secure wrapping like bubble wrap or furniture blankets. Avoid using trash bags — they tear easily and don’t stack.

4. Maximize Vertical Space

Place heavier boxes on the bottom and lighter ones on top. Stack to the ceiling, but leave walkways for access. Shelving can be a game changer.

5. Protect Sensitive Items

Wrap electronics, wooden furniture, and artwork carefully. Avoid plastic wrap on leather or wood — it can trap moisture and cause damage.

6. Leave Room for Airflow

Don’t pack everything wall-to-wall. Leave space between stacks and walls to allow ventilation and prevent mold buildup.
