Moving can be a long, drawn-out process that, depending on the type of move, can involve months or weeks of endless decisions and errands. Once you arrive at your new destination, a HuberWilmot move coordinator will ensure that all parts of your move are handled appropriately to guarantee a smooth relocation.
With the HuberWilmot Moving & Storage “Settling in Service”, you can choose from one of two options for a satisfaction-guaranteed relocation process: Basic unpacking services or Advanced unpacking services.
By choosing our Basic Unpacking Service, you can expect our movers to haul your items from our truck and place the contents of your shipment on the nearest countertop. From there, you will be responsible for sorting, organizing and putting away your own shipment. Additionally, any debris leftover from the relocation will fall on us to remove and dispose of properly.
Do you require more in-depth unpacking? Our Advanced Unpacking Services are just the ticket. Not only do we haul your belongings and unpack them completely, but at your discretion, we’ll also place them in or on any area you ask! Whether you need your cabinets, drawers, closets, rooms or shelves filled, you pick the spot and we’ll carry out your request—simple as that!
In either instance, you should always ensure that yourself or a designated internal move coordinator is available on stand-by to help guide our movers so your belongings are placed in the right place the first time around.
Packing properly is key to ensure your move goes as easily as possible. Pack too little and you’re left with questions like, “Did I forget to pack that?”. Now, you’re left rushing through all those packed boxes to find out where your items ended up. Pack too much and you’ve given yourself an even harder task which now includes many heavy boxes that look ready to burst open any second.
Here are 5 quick and useful tips you should take into consideration to make your packing process easier:
Make sure you realistic and achievable timeline including a visual representation of how you’d like your boxes loaded and unloaded. This helps all parties involved stay as organized as possible.
This box will have the items you require during and right up until the end of the moving process. This includes items you’ll likely unpack first in your new home or office.
Hire our professional movers and don’t be afraid to ask questions prior to or during your move! This will help us pull together the vision for your next move.
Seems easier said than done, right? If you’re unsure of how to start, when or even which room to begin with, we have your back.
Whether you’re moving residentially or commercially, you should notify any utilities you’re to stop payment when you move out. Conversely, before you move into your new home or office, you should ensure a change of address form is filed and, again, utilities are set up.
This is a must when it comes to efficiently and safely loading your packed items onto our trucks, in storage, or when you’re unpacking at your new destination. So, break out that label maker and ensure you’ve labeled every item that needs to be moved so you don’t have to rummage through everything later.

What is a Bill of Lading?
Every mover is required to prepare a bill of lading for every shipment transported. The bill of lading is the receipt for your goods and the contract with your mover for their transportation. The driver who loads your shipment must give you a copy of the bill of lading.
It is your responsibility to read and understand the information on the bill of lading before you sign it. The bill of lading identifies the mover and specifies when the transportation is to be performed. It also specifies the terms and conditions for payment of the total moving charges, along with the maximum amount required to be paid at the time of delivery (if you are moving under a non-binding estimate). Information regarding the valuation of your shipment and the amount the mover will be liable for in the event of loss or damage is also shown.
