第一步:选择搬家日期:
If you’ve purchased a home or signed a lease, there will be a date imposed when possession is yours. This doesn’t have to be your moving day. Consider cheaper rates and more flexible availability for services in the middle of the week. Some people may choose to arrange an overlap period during the move from one residence to another. Paying for two homes may be costly but it will allow more time to pack, 搬家，布置好你的新家.
第二步:搬运工和卡车
书搬家公司, 一辆卡车, and appointments for related services such as utilities and cable hook-ups at your new home. Disconnect services at your current home, as soon as you have confirmed your 移动的日期. 如果你要搬进高层建筑, contact the Building Manager or Concierge well in advance to reserve the date and time for the elevator, ensure that moving pads will be installed to eliminate any damage and to enquire if there are other rules that must be followed during their move.
