Moving can be a very stressful time for many people. You want to be sure your delivery service or moving company packs up everything you need, but you also want to make sure nothing gets lost in the process. At S & S Delivery, a professional moving company and delivery service in Honolulu, HI, their team understands there are certain items nobody wants misplaced or damaged during their move.

Below, they recommend a few items you should always leave off of the moving truck and in your possession during the move:

  • Important Documents: When moving, keep important documents such as birth certificates, passports, and mortgage documents in your possession. If these documents get lost, they are difficult and expensive to replace. Avoid taking the risk and place these documents in a secure folder, and keep the folder with you during the move.
  • Personal Toiletries: Packing away all of your belongings and realizing you’ve left personal items like your toothbrush, underwear, or contact lenses in the moving truck can be an incredibly frustrating experience. Keep a small box or bag with all the items you know you will need in your car or personal bag.
  • Jewelry: Jewelry can be both financially and emotionally valuable. Aside from the risk of loss or theft, jewelry that has been left in a box on the moving truck is also at risk of being damaged. Place valuable jewelry in a secure bag and carry it with you to your new home, or place it in a safety deposit box until the move is over.

These items are impossible to replace and you’ll regret the loss of your memories should they become wet or break during the move. Carry them in your car and transport them safely in your possession.
  • Prescription Medications: If you rely on daily medications, you should try to keep them readily available to you at all times. Place your medications in your personal bag and transport them with you on the day of the move. This will avoid the (possibly literal) headache of not having your medications with you on the day of the move.
