How To Move Your Firearms

Since the foundation of the "Brady Bill" legislation in the mid 90's, contract carriers are allowed to move firearms for their customers. As expected, this service obligates potential customers to follow particular procedures. Guns must be emptied of all ammunition and the details of each weapon (make, model, and serial number) has to be incorporated into the inventory. Also, movers will not ship your ammunition for you. That is the responsibility of the owner. It's always a good idea to get familiar with local state law on the policies and restrictions in relation to firearm security.

Cleaning Appliances

Unfortunately, relocating to a new home also means cleaning your old one. It's a good idea to list out all of the different appliances that need your attention, like removing the grease from the stove and oven, draining your dishwasher, and disconnecting the washing machine. Keep in mind that you're accountable for making sure your major appliances are disconnected. Movers won't do it for you due to insurance and safety reasons, so be sure to have your fridge, dishwasher, and any other appliance you may have readied for loading before moving day.

Using Newspaper for moving

If your are going to use newspaper to pad and wrap your items, be sure it is an item that will not be messed up by ink stains. You can take steps to ensure that your things will not get tainted by packing your items individually with various wraps before stuffing the newspaper inside.
