Loading the Truck: Tips and Tricks
You’ve booked your moving truck and packed your belongings, now it’s time to think about moving day. If you’re like my husband, then you’ll want to plan how the truck should be loaded. I have to admit, I’m not the most patient mover. I tend to want to just get it done; hopefully, my husband will never read this since I’m about to admit that advance planning on how to load the truck is a good idea. But that’s between you and me… If you want to be really detailed and organized, do a walk-through of your house and note the order in which items are loaded. Make a list and group similar sized boxes together. This will make moving day go a lot smoother and faster. • Move the largest and heaviest items first. This includes appliances such as the stove, washing machine, refrigerator and dishwasher, and any other item that takes more than two people to move. These items should be loaded on the truck before anything else and kept against the far wall closest to the cab.
