Checklist

Moving task list: before, on and after moving day

  • Practical, printable checklists
  • Published:
  • 3 min read

The short answer

This list follows the whole move over time: from sorting and asking for a price two weeks out, to an essentials bag the night before, to checking pieces after unloading. Tick what you finish and your progress shows; printing lets you carry it. For detailed preparation of the furniture itself, see the furniture preparation guide.

Key takeaways

  • The list runs in time order, so start at the stage you are in.
  • It includes non-furniture tasks such as updating addresses and an essentials bag.
  • Ticks are not sent to anyone, and you can choose to save them on your device.
  • Print it or save it as a PDF from your browser.

How to use it

You do not need to complete every task. If the date is close, jump to the “day before” stage and focus on essentials: emptying wardrobes, clearing passages and confirming the time and addresses. If you have time, start with sorting, because every item you drop lightens the rest.

For preparing the furniture itself (measuring, disassembly, packing) see the furniture preparation guide, and for lists by home type see the apartment and villa lists.
