When your moving dates don’t quite line up

Bring the storage conversation into the plan early.

Map out the gap

  • Write down the dates you know and the dates still in flux.
  • Identify what you need access to during the transition.
  • Discuss your timeline with your moving provider.

Ask practical questions

  • How will belongings be moved into and out of storage?
  • Who should you contact when your dates change?
  • What details should be confirmed in writing?

Keep essentials close

  • Separate items you need during the gap.
  • Keep an inventory of what goes into storage.
  • Save contact details alongside your moving plan.
Make it your own.

Every move is different. Use this guide as a starting point for your own checklist and provider conversations.
