| The day before the Las Vegas 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. |

| If the Las Vegas mover attempts to give you a delivery date and time, keep in mind that if you are moving across country, it is really only an estimate at the time of loading. Many factors can change the schedule for the driver, so try to remain flexible. Ask the driver to call you with changes so that you can adjust your plans accordingly. If you have a delivery spread (a sequence of two or more days that your shipment can be delivered on and still be considered on time) understand that you can and may be delivered on any one of those days. |
 |
| When taking inventory please make an estimate of value to tell your Las Vegas mover. A Valuation is the degree of "worth" of the shipment. The valuation charge compensates the mover for assuming a greater degree of liability than that provided for in the base transportation charges. |
 |
| Do you need your Las Vegas mover to guarantee dates? Guaranteed Pickup and Delivery Service is an additional level of service whereby dates of service are guaranteed, with the mover providing reimbursement for delays. This premium service is often subject to minimum weight requirements. |
 |
| In some cases a Las Vegas mover may speak with you about Accessorial (Additional) Services. These are services such as packing, appliance servicing or unpacking that you request to be performed (or are necessary because of landlord requirements or other special circumstances). Charges for these services are in addition to the transportation charges. |
 |
| Is you Las Vegas mover a AMSA Certified Move? A AMSA mover is an interstate carrier that transports your household goods shipment under its own operating authority, granted by the Federal Highway Administration. AMSA Certified Movers subscribe to the AMSA Code of Conduct and have pledged to conduct their business in the most efficient and professional manner possible. |

| When you are packing, get out your clipboard and take inventory for your Las Vegas mover. Inventory is the detailed descriptive list of your household goods showing the number and condition of each item. |
