11 Apr Creating a Do Not Move Zone

Moving Checklist

On moving day, it’s not uncommon to lose track of essential items like closing documents or medication. Avoid this unnecessary stress by creating a designated area for items that the moving crew should not take. Creating a ‘Do Not Move’ zone is a must for your moving preparation. It ensures personal documents, money, medications, passports, etc. are not mistakenly moved.

Use a separate room or closet as your ‘Do Not Move’ zone. Place a ‘Do Not Move’ sign on the door and point this out to crew lead during your pre-move walkthrough.

If a separate room isn’t available, designate an area within a room as your ‘Do Not Move’ zone. Place items that should not move into this area of the room. Leave a clear separation between items to move and items not to move.
