Arrange with the estate agents what time your keys for your new home will be released.

Many removal companies will be familiar with this, but may charge your for this excessive waiting times.
Ask a close friend or family member if they will treat the children for the day. Taking them out for the day will be a huge strain off your shoulders, not having to worry if the children are ok or are they getting in the way of the movers.

Store all sentimental and valuable items like passports, documents, car keys, bank cards, cheque books etc in a safe place, carrying them on your person will ensure that they are kept safe during your move.
Place all animals in one room of the house while the move is underway, losing the cat will be the last thing you need on your removal. Remember your doors will be ajar as movers will be walking in and out carry heavy items and furniture, throughout the house.
Once at your new property navigate the movers to where you’d like everything to be placed.
