Protecting Electronics From Dust

When you're preparing your electronics for a residential move with Dose Moving & Storage, it's crucial to protect them from dust, which can accumulate rapidly during transit and potentially cause damage or malfunction.

Dust can seep into tiny crevices and compromise the internal components of your devices. To prevent this, we recommend using static protection materials, such as anti-static bags or wraps, to shield your devices from electrostatic discharge.

Additionally, moisture shielding can help protect your electronics from humidity and condensation during transit. By taking these precautions, you'll ensure your electronics arrive at their new destination in good working condition.

 

Secure Loose Appliance Parts

When you're preparing your appliances for a move, don't forget to secure any loose parts to prevent damage or loss during transit. At Dose Moving & Storage, we've seen it time and time again - screws, knobs, and shelves getting dislodged and lost, causing headaches for homeowners.

To avoid this, pack screws and other small parts in labeled bags or containers so they're organized and easy to find.

Use tape to keep doors and drawers shut, preventing them from opening during transport and potentially damaging the appliance or surrounding items.

If possible, remove any detachable parts, such as refrigerator shelves or washing machine drums, to prevent damage or loss.

By taking these simple precautions, you can ensure your appliances arrive at their new destination in the same condition they left in.

 

Label Appliance Power Cords

Labeling appliance power cords is a game-changer when it comes to making your move with Dose Moving & Storage as smooth as possible. 

For instance, you could use red for the fridge, blue for the washing machine, and green for the dryer.

This cord organization system lets you quickly match cords to their corresponding appliances, making the unpacking process a whole lot easier.

Additionally, consider using cord organizers or zip ties to keep cords tidy and prevent tangles. This ensures a hassle-free move with Dose Moving & Storage. By doing so, you'll avoid the headache of dealing with a mess of cords and can focus on getting settled into your new place.
