Moving Guide For Brooklyn High-Rise Apartment Owners: Essential Steps

by PRC Agency PR

Moving isn't cheap, and that's especially true for New York City. As rates have gone up in 2023, with the average cost for a local three-bedroom move being around $2,100, going up to $5,500 for long-distance moves, you'll want to make sure you don't add to that any missed compensation for potentially damaged valuables - and that's why you need to make sure your inventory is bulletproof.

Practice Moving Inventory Tips For Brooklyn High-Rise Apartment Owners

Movers.com's “How to Make a Moving Inventory in 6 Steps” is an essential practical guide that you can use to reduce costs and minimize the risks of a move - even one as complex as a Brooklyn high-rise apartment.

Moving Inventory Columns Done Right

The report suggest creating an inventory with several essential columns, including:

  • make,
  • model,
  • serial number,
  • current condition,
  • market value,
  • current room,
  • destination room in the new location.

Especially important for valuable items, this ensures that all details are thoroughly documented in the event of an accident - especially if backed by receipts or other documents.

Photographing Items

Photographing all items in the inventory is another recommendation, as that is a convenient way to prove the original condition of any item.

Final Checks

An often overlooked aspect of making an inventory is double checking that you're not missing anything, says Movers.com.

“After you finish the whole house, go back through every room. You may not have mentioned necessary details about certain items - or forgot to list something entirely,” explains the guide. “Check that you included any brand new furniture and appliances in your itemized list. Once you double check, ask someone else to read your household inventory. It won't hurt to have another pair of eyes check the document's clarity and that all belongings have been included.”

Finished The Inventory? Start Moving!

Finally, the report recommends that once you're done with the moving inventory, you transport your items to the first floor, grouping them by room and placing them closer to the door. This will minimize moving costs and eliminate stair fees.

Obviously, if you're a high-rise apartment owner you may not be able to do that. In that case, the company recommends working exclusively with a licensed and certified mover to avoid falling prey to potential scams.
