Begin planning your move 6–8 weeks in advance.

Decide what items you’ll move, donate, or discard to streamline the process.
Packing Tips:

If you’re packing yourself, start early and request packing materials from your Atlas Agent.
-
Dispose of hazardous items such as bleach, propane, or aerosols safely—these cannot be transported.
Home Preparation:

Use up perishable foods before moving day.
-
Clean and dry appliances 24–48 hours prior to your move.

Document the value of antiques, artwork, or high-value items for insurance purposes.
