Moving household appliances is a special project. They are bulky and heavy, and you can't pack them in a box or unplug and carry them onto a moving truck. Most likely, you'll have to hire a professional moving service to get the job done. However, our guide will help you if you plan to move them yourself.
Moving Appliances
Moving yourself is the most cost-effective way to move. The following post includes information on how to estimate the price of the DIY move.
How Much It Costs to Move Yourself
Many people decide between renting a moving truck or using portable containers when planning a move. Truck rentals provide more control and lower upfront costs but require driving and a strict schedule. Containers allow flexible loading and don’t require you to drive, but they may cost more and need planning ahead for delivery and pickup.

This checklist focuses on the mistakes that cause the most delays, added costs, and damage during a move. Each item is included because it addresses a problem movers report often, such as unclear box labels that slow unloading, poor weight distribution that causes boxes to break, or missed utility transfers that disrupt move-in day.
The checklist follows the order in which most moves happen, so tasks appear when they are easiest to complete, not after they become problems.
