Coordinating a move when family members travel on different days

Before you start

Record who will be at each address and when. Share the current inventory with those who need it, keeping private documents separate.

Practical steps

• Choose separate contacts for collection and delivery.
• Confirm keys and building access against the travel schedule.
• Clearly distinguish personally carried belongings from the main shipment.

Checks on arrival

Update what was delivered and what remains with each person after every stage. Coordinate through one current plan instead of conflicting messages.

What to include in your quote request

Prepare your enquiry around the actual inventory and timing needs rather than household size alone. Separate personal luggage from the shipment. Match access arrangements, priority items and contact people to one written moving plan.
