Prepare

Prepare-Organize- Always have a Plan B (and a plan c)

I believe in the “pay me now or pay me later” principle. Either way you are going to pay, so best to spend our time and energy in preparation because if you do not, you spend twice the amount of time trying to catch up. We all know that the moving business has two seasons, slow and all out crazy. Knowing that you need to prepare in the slow to prepare for the crazy. Everything is habit, so get into good habits.

 Look at our process and what you do and when. You should always be looking at two weeks away to start to identify your possible tough moves and a week out you best have had laid some plans because the rest of household goods world is looking ahead and setting their crews and drivers, Next is 24 hours before that load date, have you looked at the estimate and reconfirmed space & availability? You need to stay out in front or it will mow you down and by July 4th you will be completely stressed- start early! Set your table for the day and the next day. 

The moving business has a peak of approximately 16 weeks, so suck it up and put the time in and organize because if you do not put the time in and care about your part of the move, you will ultimately pay the price and feels stressed and unsatisfied. 

Pay me not or pay me later
