| Take care of your Madison 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. |
|
| If you must store your items after moving out, you will have to pay your Madison mover Pickup and Delivery Charges These are Separate transportation charges applicable for transporting your shipment between the temporary storage warehouse and your residence. |
|
| When you are packing, get out your clipboard and take inventory for your Madison mover. Inventory is the detailed descriptive list of your household goods showing the number and condition of each item. |
|
| Ask your Madison mover if your things are going to be the only ones on the moving van. There are times that the moving companies put two or three families together that are going to the same destination. It might cost more to have the van all to yourself, but it’s worth it. You minimize the chances of getting other peoples things and loosing yours. |
|
| Keep in mind that any items that are considered flammable are not going to be loaded by your Madison movers. Understand what these items are so that you are not stuck with trying to get rid of them on day of loading. If you are uncertain what items can't be loaded, ask your estimator for a list. Because movers can't transport most household cleaners, they will be available for you to use throughout the day. Also remember to remove items from inaccessible areas like crawl spaces or attics. |
|
| Normally paying your Madison mover will be done C.O.D., which stands for cash on delivery. Transportation for a private shipper may require C.O.D. at the time of delivery at the destination residence (or warehouse). |
