Knowing where the nearest grocery store or urgent care is makes settling in faster. - **Keep an inventory as you pack.** A simple checklist of what's in each box helps you track everything and makes unpacking more organized. - **Photograph electronics before you disconnect them.** Snap a quick photo of the back of your TV, computer setup, and other wired items before you unplug. It'll save you time at your new place. - **Keep important documents with you.** Store your lease, moving paperwork, IDs, and anything you'll need on arrival in a labeled folder you carry yourself. - **Prepare for a rainy move.** Garner sees around 46 inches of rain a year, so ask about floor runners and keep upholstered pieces and anything cardboard off wet ground. - **Sort out the truck’s parking spot early.** Garner has permit and parking requirements that apply to moving trucks. Handling that in advance beats improvising while a loaded truck sits idling. - **Redirect your mail before you leave.** File your change of address with USPS so nothing piles up at your old place after you’ve gone. ![Moving with AVL from Garner, NC](https://avl.dicedigital.co/wp-content/themes/avl-theme/static/images/avl-movers-1b.jpg) ## FAQs How long does a long-distance move usually take? A long-distance move can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the distance, your schedule, and other logistics. We'll work with you to set a realistic timeline and keep you informed every step of the way. What's the best time of year to move? Spring and fall are generally the best seasons for moving, with milder weather and more scheduling flexibility. Summer is peak moving season, so if you want better rates and availability, a move in the off-season is worth considering. What is an inventory? Your moving inventory is a room-by-room list of everything going on the truck. American Van Lines uses it to calculate your flat-rate estimate and confirm that every item is loaded and delivered as expected. What payment methods do you accept, and when are payments due? We accept credit cards, debit cards, and certified checks. Long-distance move payments are typically due upon delivery. We'll go over the full payment schedule with you when you finalize your booking. Do you provide or sell packing materials? Yes. High-quality packing materials like boxes, tape, and bubble wrap are included with our [packing services](https://www.americanvanlines.com/moving-services/packing-services/).
