While you're busy focusing on so much during your move, don't forget that even the little things need to be planned out in advance.
For instance, where to park the moving truck. Box trucks require ample space and level ground to ensure optimal safety for the crew and your belongings. Box trucks typically range from 10 to 26 feet in length and can weigh up to 26,000 lbs when fully loaded. That's wider than a two-car garage and heavier than a school bus π₯΅
Ideally, the truck should be parked within 50β75 feet of the entrance to minimize carrying distances and reduce the risk of injury. Always check local parking regulations, as many municipalities require a moving permit for trucks parked on public streets for extended periods.
