General moving tips

Stairhopper Movers is here to help make sure your move is safe and efficient. Here are a few tips we can offer to help your move go smoothly.

Moving in Boston
Start planning for your move well in advance - at least four to six weeks. This will give you and your movers time to accommodate for unexpected events or plan changes.

That will surely make things go a lot smoother.

Moving in Boston Area

If you are packing yourself, make sure to keep everything well-organized so that you can keep having fun when you arrive at your new place. Clearly label the boxes with the contents and destination(i.e. "DR" dining room, "MBR" master bedroom)

Moving in Boston Area

Try to put heavier items in smaller boxes and bulky and lighter items in larger boxes. DO NOT over or under pack boxes. If you over pack the box it's likely to split open and you will have things sticking out of the top. This makes it difficult for the movers to pack them in the truck.

Under packing your boxes is also detrimental, often the top of the box will be dented or crushed. Keep a detailed inventory of everything you pack.


Items of Personal Importance/Sentimental Value

We suggest that all the irreplaceable items and\or sentimental items be carried with you instead of being packed with your shipment.
