What to Expect on Moving Day with Skyline Moving

Preparation is key to a smooth moving day. Here’s what you should do before your Skyline Moving crew arrives:

Finish All Packing (Unless You’ve Booked Packing Services)

If you’ve hired us for packing services, we’ll take care of everything. But if you’re packing your belongings yourself, make sure everything is boxed, labeled, and ready to go before the movers arrive. This includes:

• Labeling boxes with room names and fragile items
• Removing items from drawers and shelves
• Sealing boxes securely
• Disposing of hazardous materials that cannot be moved

Clear Pathways

Ensure that hallways, staircases, and doorways are clear. This makes it easier for our movers to carry heavy furniture and prevents accidents.

Reserve Parking (If Needed)

If you live in a high-rise, condo, or downtown area in Calgary, it’s a good idea to reserve parking or elevator access in advance. This avoids delays and ensures we can start your move on time.

Once our team arrives, they’ll conduct a quick walk-through of your home or office. This helps them assess the load, identify any fragile items, and confirm your instructions.

You can expect the following from Skyline Moving:
