If you’re like most people, moving day brings a mix of excitement, stress, and a hundred unanswered questions. You’ve packed the boxes, you’ve booked the movers — now what? Whether this is your first big move or your tenth, knowing what to expect can take a lot of the pressure off.
At Miracle Movers FLA, we believe a well-informed customer is a happier customer. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of what a typical moving day looks like when you work with our team — so you’re never left guessing.
Before We Arrive: A Little Prep Goes a Long Way
Moving day starts before the truck even pulls up.
Here’s what you can do the night before:
- Make sure boxes are clearly labeled and sealed.
- Pack an “Essentials Bag” with things you’ll need the first night — toiletries, chargers, medications, clothes.
- Have water and snacks on hand for yourself and your family.
- Keep pets in a safe space or arrange for them to be out of the way.
A little prep helps us get started right away — and keeps the day running smoothly.
Step 1: Crew Arrival and Final Walkthrough
When we arrive, we’ll introduce ourselves and do a walkthrough of your home with you. This is your chance to:
- Point out fragile or high-value items
- Show us what stays and what goes
- Highlight tricky areas (tight corners, delicate walls, etc.)
We’ll confirm details from your moving plan and answer any last-minute questions before touching a single box.
Step 2: Protection and Prep Work
Before we start moving things, we take steps to protect:
- Floors (especially wood and tile)
- Doorways and banisters
- Walls near high-traffic paths
We’ll also wrap furniture, cover mattresses, and secure delicate items for transit. If we’re disassembling anything (like bed frames or desks), we’ll do that now.
Step 3: Loading the Truck (Strategically)
We don’t just toss things in the truck — there’s a method to the madness. Our crew loads items based on:
- Weight and fragility
- Destination room
- Access needs (what you’ll need right away goes in last so it comes out first)
This helps us unload quickly and place everything exactly where it needs to go on the other end.
Step 4: Transportation
Once everything’s loaded and secure, we’ll hit the road — whether that’s five blocks or five cities away.
If we’re moving you long distance, you’ll get a clear ETA and a direct line of communication with our crew so you’re never in the dark.
Step 5: Unloading and Placement
At your new home, we’ll do another walkthrough before unloading. We’ll ask:
- Which room each box or item goes in
- If any furniture needs reassembly
- If there are any special instructions for placement
We don’t just dump everything in the living room and leave. Our goal is to make the settling in process easier — not harder.
Step 6: Final Check-In
Once the truck is empty, we’ll go over your inventory list and do one last walkthrough with you to confirm everything looks right. If there’s anything you need adjusted, moved again, or double-checked — just ask.
We’ll also take away any packing materials we used, so you’re not left with a mess.
