- Begin collecting boxes and other packing supplies. You can order a wide selection of moving boxes from U-Pack to be delivered to your door.
- Begin packing items you don't use often. Also start separating and disposing of the items you've designated for a yard sale, donation or the junk yard. If you donate, be sure to get a receipt for income tax purposes.
- Start pinpointing a "move date". This will be the day you receive your ABF trailer or ReloCube® for loading. Try to take advantage of the lower rates offered Tuesdays through Thursdays and during the first three weeks of the month.
- Plan ahead for parking the ABF Trailer or ReloCube. If you’re moving in an ABF trailer, keep in mind that you'll be receiving a 28 foot commercial trailer, which will require a 14 foot overhead clearance and in most cases will need to be left overnight. You should contact your property manager or local authorities to ensure you will be complying with any parking restrictions.
- Plan for short-term or long-term storage at destination if needed.
