THE DETAILS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE

A home is a whole collection of stories.

The everyday chair. The carefully packed books. The box you want to open first. A residential move brings together belongings with very different needs. A useful plan starts by looking beyond the number of rooms.

Walk through your home and describe the items, access and timing involved. Whether you are considering an apartment move or a larger household transition, this page helps you prepare a clear brief. The final scope, availability and handling arrangements need to be agreed before any booking.

Discuss your plans

01 / A MORE CONSIDERED PLAN

Plan the route through your home.

Measure the pieces that may be difficult to carry and the spaces they must pass through. A sofa can fit in a room yet still be awkward on a stairwell. Door widths, tight corners, elevator dimensions and the distance from the loading area all matter.

Ask your building manager about elevator reservations, permitted moving hours and protective coverings for shared areas. Keep the pickup and destination requirements together so that neither end becomes an unexpected complication.

02 / A MORE CONSIDERED PLAN

Give the important things their own plan.

Separate the things you need immediately from the boxes that can wait. Keep keys, medication, identification, chargers and personal documents with you. Make a note of fragile, valuable or unusually heavy belongings and discuss any special requirements before assuming they can be included.

A simple room inventory is more useful than a guess about the number of boxes. Add photographs where they clarify dimensions or handling questions, and keep the description focused on the belongings rather than private documents.

    Prepare for the handover

    Label rooms, keep an essentials bag nearby and plan a final walkthrough. Use your Kargo reference for the continuing conversation.

BEFORE YOUR REQUEST

A little preparation.
A much clearer brief.

Gather what you know. Leave a note where you need guidance. A complete request helps identify questions before an estimate is prepared.

Talk through a question ↗
A LITTLE MORE CLARITY

Good questions.
Useful answers.

List the main furniture in each room, an approximate box count and items that need special attention. Dimensions and clear photographs help when an item may be difficult to move.

KEEP PLANNING

Make room for the next step.
