Movers are on their way, and your place isn’t quite ready? Don’t panic. With just 30 minutes, you can do a lot to make your move go faster—and save yourself time and stress. Here’s a step-by-step plan from the D3 Delivery team.

1. Clear the Walkways

Make sure there’s a clear path from every room to the door. Remove rugs, shoes, or clutter from hallways and stairs.

2. Label Your Boxes

Even just “Kitchen,” “Bedroom,” or “Fragile” written in big letters can help. Group boxes by room to make loading easier.

3. Unplug and Wrap Electronics

Unplug TVs, monitors, or speakers. Wrap cords and place them in ziplock bags taped to the device.

4. Set Aside Essentials

Designate a bag or box with chargers, snacks, medication, toilet paper, and your wallet or keys. Keep it with you—not on the truck.

5. Secure Pets and Kids

If you’ve got little ones or pets, make arrangements to keep them safe and out of the way during the move. Bonus tip: If you booked with D3 Delivery, don’t worry about being perfect—we’ll help get things loaded, labeled, and moved like pros.
