Plan your move

Apartment moving checklist

Prepare the building arrangements at pickup and delivery before choosing a moving window.

Ask each building separately

Confirm service entrance, elevator reservation, loading area and any documents required by management. Get the actual instructions for your building rather than relying on what another building allowed.

Separate keys from arrival

Record the earliest pickup access, latest departure, destination key collection and delivery window. Flag gaps or conflicting elevator reservations for review.

Trace the carrying route

Describe the floor, number of stairs, elevator size, distance from loading space and any narrow turns. Note whether loading access is shared with other residents.

Prepare a day-of contact

Identify who can open each property and resolve building questions. Keep keys, medication and personal essentials with you. Notify the coordinator if a booking or access condition changes.
