Moving Services and Products

Having this survival kit on hand will prevent emergency trips to the store and frantic shuffling through boxes at your destination.

Pack these essential items together in one box, and make sure you have the box with you at all times, as you finish packing up in your old home and when you arrive at the new place.

- Scissors
- Utility knife
- Coffee cups
- Instant coffee, tea, soft drinks
- Snacks
- Paper plates
- Plastic knives, forks, spoons
- Paper towels
- Toilet paper
- Bar soap
- Dish soap
- Pencils and paper
- Local phone book
- Masking and/or duct tape
- Bath towels
- Trash bags
- Toiletries
- Shelf liner
- Flashlight
- Aspirin or ibuprofen

It's also a good idea to prepare ahead of time an easy-to-transport pot of soup, chili, or a casserole. When you reach your destination, simply warm it up and sit down to your first family meal in your new home.
