| Your Gardendale mover may discuss Advanced Charges: These charges are for services not performed by the mover but instead by a professional, craftsman or other third party at your request. The charges for these services are paid for by the mover and added to your bill of lading charges. |
 |
| If you have children, pack special items for the kids. Have the kids pack a box of their "special" items, things that they'll want to have nearby as soon as you all arrive at your new home. Point this box out to the Gardendale mover so it's one of the first boxes to be unloaded. |
 |
| Take care of your Gardendale mover. Consider the needs of your driver and crew members! It is not necessary to prepare an elaborate meal, as this is the last thing you will have time for. Still, run out and get some breakfast rolls or cookies and order pizza for lunch. It is a nice gesture and will be warmly received. |
 |
| There are two types of estimates you could receive from your Gardendale mover. The two types are Binding/Non-Binding Estimate: A binding estimate is an agreement with the mover made in advance of the move. A non-binding estimate is the carrier's approximation of the cost based on the estimated weight of the shipment and the accessorial services requested. |

 |
| A few apartment communities do not allow moving trucks to enter the premises. This is mainly when the Gardendale mover has a large truck. In these case you will be charged for Shuttle Service: This is a fee for the use of a smaller vehicle to provide service to residences that are not accessible to the mover's normal line haul equipment. |
 |
| The day before the Gardendale movers come, pack each plant in an appropriate sized moving box. However, first of all give them a good drink of water, put them in a black trash bag sealed tight, then in the box. Be sure and seal the box. Write "LIVE PLANT" on the outside with arrows pointing upright. If you have a good mover, they will load these last. The larger greenery needs to go in a dishpack, and you probably will not be able to close the box, but still follow the steps, and make some type of plastic cover over these. What happens is they create their own mini environment, and can survive up to a week in these boxes. |
