Pack a box of items that you will need immediately alter your move. Load this box on the truck last so it will come oil the truck first.

Also include any items that will make the first few days in your new location go more smoothly. You may also want to mark your stereo equipment, television, and computer boxes (blankets, sheets, towels, and shower curtain) with the words "OPEN IMMEDIATELY." Hand carry removed batteries with you. The goal of preparing a survival box is to get your life back to normal as quickly as possible after your move.

The remote control just walked away! We sold our big-screen television to the new owners of the house. However, the packers inadvertently packed the remote control. I discovered the remote when I was unpacking at the new house, and I immediately mailed the remote to the new owners with an apologetic note for the inconvenience. Courtesy counts in a move and is always greatly appreciated.

You do not plan to hire a cleaning service to clean your house after it is empty, you will need to pack a box of cleaning supplies to do this job yourself (refer to the checklist in Chapter Bight). Pack this box (the final week prior to your move. Since the movers cannot transport cleaning supplies in the moving van (refer to the section of this chapter called Eliminating Hazardous Materials), after you have finished cleaning your- house you will need to move this box in your own car. Dispose of the supplies appropriately, or donate them to a neighbor or to cleaning personnel. Add the names of supplies that you dispose of to the list of items to replace after the move.

I am hoping that this information will make your life easier when you are moving. Packers and Movers Ahmedabad Moving is very difficult task and having survival box is very important.
