Dos and Don’ts During a Long-Distance Move

 Dos and Don’ts During a Long-Distance Move

An intercity move isn’t something you do every day. It involves packing up your entire life and starting fresh in a new city — which makes it even more important to get things right.

At Moving Mart Packers and Movers, we’ve handled thousands of long-distance moves across India. Based on our experience, here are the key dos and don’ts to follow during your move:

---

✅ DOs

1. Do Book Movers in Advance

Good movers get fully booked fast. Reserve your moving date at least 7–10 days ahead for better rates and guaranteed slots.

2. Do Declutter Before the Move

Sort out items you don’t need. It reduces weight, saves cost, and keeps your new home clutter-free.

3. Do Label All Boxes Clearly

Labeling boxes by room and contents helps during unloading and makes unpacking easier.

4. Do Pack Important Items Separately

Carry documents, ID proofs, chargers, keys, and valuables personally. Don’t send them in the truck.

5. Do Take Transit Insurance

For peace of mind during long-distance travel, insure your goods against theft or damage.

6. Do Take Photos of Expensive Items

Photograph electronics, furniture, and appliances before packing for insurance proof and reassembly.

❌ DON’Ts

1. Don’t Leave Packing for the Last Minute

Rushing leads to damage or forgotten items. Start packing a few days in advance, or let professionals handle it.

2. Don’t Overload Boxes

Heavy boxes are harder to lift and more likely to burst. Pack smart — not heavy.

3. Don’t Choose Movers Only by Price

Cheap service can mean poor packing, delays, or hidden costs. Go for value, not just the lowest quote.

4. Don’t Ignore the Fine Print

Read your quote carefully — check if GST, toll, labor, and insurance are included or extra.

5. Don’t Forget to Update Address

Update your new address in banks, Aadhaar, delivery apps, and utility providers before you shift.
