| If you are moving across country you may receive a Order (Bill of Lading) Number from your Fort Lauderdale mover. This is the number used to identify and track your shipment. |
|
| The day before the Fort Lauderdale 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. |
|
| Apartment moving often comes with the extra burden of scaling stairs. A Fort Lauderdale mover may charge you a Flight Charge, which is an extra charge for carrying items up or down flights of stairs. |
|
| If you decide to use a Fort Lauderdale mover, make sure to clearly mark and set aside items you don't want loaded. This will remind you to tell the driver what not to load as you conduct your preload walkthrough. Make sure your important paperwork pertaining to the move doesn't get packed and shipped with your household goods. |
|
| You may want to arrange for someone to take care of the kids (and pets) while the Fort Lauderdale movers are packing and loading your items. Have the caregiver bring the kids back home prior to the truck leaving as it important for young children to understand where their belongings are going. |
|
| First impressions really do count. Judge your Fort Lauderdale apartment mover on their professionalism, attention to detail and responsiveness to your inquiries. Also make sure they give a thorough explanation of their pricing and process. For example, if the estimate is binding or non-binding. These things can tell you a lot about the company philosophy and how comfortable you'll be in working with them. |
