· 4. Take priceless items such as photos albums and birth certificates with you in the car. Don’t take a chance on movers losing items or damaging them. Photograph everything going into the truck.
· 5. Most of the time, there’s no way to know when the moving truck will arrive so be sure and pack enough belongings to get you by for a week or so.
