Preparing for a move can be daunting, but with the right checklist and guidance, the process can be streamlined and less stressful. Multicare Movers offers comprehensive moving services in Nairobi, and part of our commitment to ensuring a smooth transition involves helping you get your house ready before the big day. This pre-move checklist is designed to guide you through the essential steps to prepare your home for a hassle-free move with Multicare Movers.

1. Sort and Declutter

Begin Early: Start sorting through your belongings at least a month before your move. This gives you ample time to decide what to keep, donate, sell, or discard.

Categorize Items: Organize items into categories such as ‘keep’, ‘donate’, ‘sell’, and ‘throw away’. Reducing clutter not only makes packing easier but also decreases your moving costs.

2. Inventory and Documentation

Create an Inventory: Make a detailed inventory of the items you plan to move. This list will help you keep track of your belongings and ensure everything arrives at your new home.

Document Valuables: Take photos and keep receipts of valuable items. This documentation can be useful for insurance purposes and to keep a record in case of any disputes.

3. Arrange Supplies and Services

Gather Packing Supplies: Ensure you have enough boxes, tape, bubble wrap, and other packing materials. Multicare Movers can provide high-quality packing materials tailored to your items’ specific needs.

Schedule Utilities: Arrange for utilities at your new home to be connected a day before you move in and disconnect services at your old home a day after you move out.

4. Begin Packing Non-Essentials

Pack Early: Start packing non-essential items several weeks in advance. Items like out-of-season clothes, books, and decorative pieces can be packed early to reduce last-minute stress.

Label Boxes: Clearly label each box with its contents and the room it’s destined for. This will make unpacking much easier and more organized.

5. Prepare Large Appliances and Furniture

Clean and Disassemble: Clean and prepare large appliances for the move. If possible, disassemble furniture that is too large to move in one piece. Multicare Movers offers disassembly and reassembly services to assist with large items.

Protect Furniture: Use furniture covers or padding to protect furniture during the move. This will prevent scratches and damage.

6. Plan for Moving Day

Essentials Box: Pack a box of essentials that you’ll need immediately upon arriving at your new home, such as toiletries, snacks, a few dishes, and basic tools.

Personal Documents: Keep important documents like passports, lease agreements, and insurance papers in a separate, easily accessible bag.

7. Confirm Details with Multicare Movers

Final Confirmation: A few days before the move, confirm all details with Multicare Movers. Ensure the arrival time, moving plan, and special instructions are clear.

Prepare Your Home: Make sure pathways are clear and parking is available for the moving truck. This will facilitate a smooth loading process.
