Fred Leeds Tips for Moving Day

Fred Leeds Property Management is happy to offer some tips for making the day of the move more bearable and even pleasant, whether you’re moving into one of our Fred Leeds Properties or not.


Make sure to not leave your old house or apartment until the movers are completely finished loading the truck and on their way to your new home. Make sure to sign the bill of lading before venturing to your new location, which we hope is one of our Fred Leeds Properties.

Little things can make a big difference—have fresh coffee waiting for the movers when they arrive and perhaps order pizza for lunch. This will help them warm up to you and help make it a more fun day for everyone. Also, keep bottled water in everyone’s reach so you can all stay hydrated.

Make sure that you or someone in your family is available for open communication and to answer any questions about any of the items to be moved. Let them know if you feel uncomfortable about an issue, but don’t micromanage.

Transport your high value items like paperwork (deeds and legal documents), family photos and scrapbooks, and jewelry yourself. This will give you a sense of ease about these items and ensure that you are less likely to micromanage the movers.

These simple tips from Fred Leeds Property Management may seem like common sense, but they are great ways to make the move less stressful and more enjoyable. Visit our website to browse our Fred Leeds current listings!
