Pack a Movers Instant Aid Box containing things that might be needed immediately upon arrival at your new home. Package each group of items in a large paper bag or box and clearly label and carry your Instant Aid Box with you instead of loading it in the moving truck.
United Van Lines provides a list of some common non-allowable items that cannot be shipped because they represent a hazard or are perishable. Make sure you know what you can and can’t load on the truck before moving day.
Use our printable moving reminder to help make your move. You can also sign up for weekly e-mail reminders and United will e-mail you each week during the eight weeks leading up to your move.
