As a part of our on going commitment to you, we have put together a photo collage (below) of some ideas we have found that will make your moving process a little easier. Labeling your furniture, boxes, doors and doorways prior to your move date, at your new home with painters tape (for furniture and doorways) is a fast and simple way to let your movers know where to place your furniture and boxes. Painters tape is harmless to furniture and walls. This is especially helpful if you have a large crew of movers or like a lot of new homeowners you have the cable guy, decorators, friends and family all present on the day of your move and you just don't have time focus solely on your movers. As always thank you for making us your premier moving company.....
