Responsibilities
Pack and Prepare Items
At the destination, movers help prepare and pack customers’ items to prevent damage during transit. Their tasks include taking apart furniture, wrapping items in bubble wrap or stretch wrap, putting loose items in boxes and sealed bags, and using straps and cardboard sheets on large items.
Load and Unload Items
Movers use equipment like dollies and ramps to load customers’ items from their buildings to the moving truck. They arrange items in the truck to fit the load and prevent objects from falling or getting damaged. At the destination, movers take the items off the truck and place them in the location of the customer requests.
Take Inventory
Keeping track of the customer’s items to make sure nothing gets lost or damaged is an important responsibility that movers have. They write down a description of each package or item at the customer’s location before starting loading. Movers check this inventory when they reach the destination to ensure they unload all the items.
Handle Customer Requests
Movers also answer customers’ questions and address requests they have for how they want items packed, loaded, and unloaded. They also provide information about price and time estimates and address any concerns.
Perform Cleaning and Maintenance Tasks
Before leaving the customer’s loading site, movers clean up any supplies or garbage left behind during the packing/unpacking, loading/unloading process. They also keep their moving trucks clean and may help perform general vehicle maintenance.
