Packing & Unpacking in Windsor

Packing & Unpacking for Windsor homes

Windsor's century homes, riverfront condos, student rentals and newer subdivisions mean every kind of move, often on the same street. Windsor's older homes tend to hold decades of belongings in basements, attics and built-in cupboards, so packing often takes more time than people expect. We look at storage areas during the walk-through and plan enough packing time to finish the day before the move.

What's included

Full or partial packing with quality materials, every box labelled by room, and unpacking at the new home if you want it. Depending on your move, that can include:

• Quality materials
• Fragile items wrapped properly
• Labelled by room
• Full or partial packing
• Furniture protection
• Unpacking
• Plan the rooms.
• Pack the hard rooms first.
• Label and stage.
• Unpack, if booked.

Local details in Windsor

Long-held Windsor homes tend to have full basements, attics and built-ins, with heirlooms, pianos and china cabinets to protect. Narrow doorways mean more furniture comes apart, and careful packing takes longer than people expect.

Questions to ask before you hire

Whoever you hire for packing & unpacking in Windsor, get clear answers to these before you book:

• Are packing materials included, and what kind do you use?
• How do you pack dishes, glassware and artwork?
• Will every box be labelled by room and contents?
• When will packing happen, and how long will it take?
• Is unpacking offered, and do you take the empty boxes away?

Parking, access and building rules

Before moving day we check where the truck can park at both homes. On narrow Windsor streets and in older neighbourhoods, the truck may need to use the rear alley or stand on the street, and we check with the City of Windsor whether anything is required for your street. Downtown and riverfront buildings usually need an elevator booking and set move hours, and many ask the mover for a certificate of insurance.
