Various Ways to Tape

There can be special techniques of securing and taping your boxes to prepare for relocating, some are more efficient than others. Some moving companies use the "H" taping method. This involves taping down the center of the box in between the flaps and then the edges, creating the an "H" shape.

Moving Your Guns

Since the "Brady Bill" law in the mid 90's, contract carriers are permitted to ship guns for their clients. Naturally, the service requires potential customers to follow specific procedures. Weapons must be emptied of all ammunition and the particulars of every weapon (make, model, and serial number) has to be included in the inventory. Also, carriers will not transport your ammunition for you. The owner is responsible for that. It's always a smart idea to be savvy with local state legislation on the guidelines and regulations that concern gun safety.

Notify Others of Your Address Change

Before you move, there are a few people, offices, and businesses you should let know about your address change outside your family. The most evident is the post office. Post offices often offer a forwarding service for your mail where essentially, any mail that is sent to your old address will be forwarded to your new one. However, the forwarding address only runs for a limited time, so it's a good idea that you notify everyone who needs to know as soon as you can. Other companies you should get in contact with include: your utility provider.
