Confirm the addresses and schedule

Confirm Queens pickup and interstate delivery addresses, contacts and arrival windows. Ask building management about elevators and move times. Check NYC truck parking guidance: ordinary moving jobs cannot reserve curb space through a DOT parking permit.

Label what is staying and what is moving

Mark anything that stays in your Woodside apartment or Sunnyside house. Label boxes by destination room. Keep medication, keys, IDs and documents with you through the delivery window.

Clear the route before the crew arrives

Clear narrow hallways and walk-up stair landings. Share flights of stairs and the carry from legal parking to the door. Check the forecast, dry wet entries and clear snow or ice before loading.

Do a final walkthrough

Check closets, cabinets and basement storage. Confirm the inventory before departure. At delivery, walk through each room and note any concerns before unpacking.
