Leaving access questions until the last minute

Downtown condo elevators and loading bays need advance discussion. Ask management about move windows, then check curbside loading rules for streets such as Beach Drive before booking.

Using a guess instead of an inventory

List each room, condo storage locker and garage. In an Old Northeast home, measure doorways and stair turns rather than assuming a large sofa will fit.

Packing essentials with everything else

Keep medication, documents, chargers, water and keys with you. Protect essentials from rain and check the forecast, especially when moving during hurricane season.

Comparing estimates for different jobs

Give St Petersburg Movers LLC your inventory, Pinellas County addresses and packing needs. Compare the same scope across estimates and ask how weather-related schedule changes are handled.
