Plan the access as carefully as the inventory
Review apartment belongings, packing and access at both stops. Keep stairs, elevators, parking and customer instructions with the moving job.
At pickup
Confirm how the belongings get from the apartment to the truck.
Floor and elevator · Parking and carry · Building contact
At destination
Check the second building on its own terms before the move.
Access instructions · Elevator window · On-site contact
A small inventory can still be a complicated move
A third-floor walk-up and an apartment beside a loading elevator can contain the same furniture and take very different work. Parking, carries and building instructions belong in the plan before the crew arrives.
MoveVision connects the room inventory with separate pickup and destination details. Your estimator can review what is moving, record access information for each stop and carry those notes into the crew's phone view.
Put the workflow into practice
Step 1
Survey the apartment
Ask the customer to film the rooms and show larger pieces clearly. Add close-up photos and notes for items that need disassembly or special handling, then confirm the packing choice.
Step 2
Confirm both buildings
Record the floor, elevator availability, parking, access notes and on-site contact at each stop. Put agreed elevator windows or building instructions in the notes and make any confirmation work a task.
Step 3
Quote and brief the team
Review crew and hours, add access or custom charges where appropriate, and assign the crew. The team can read the stops, contacts, inventory and instructions from the job on their phone.
Start with one real job
Pick one apartment move and review the pickup and destination independently. Treat an unknown access detail as something to confirm, rather than assuming the two buildings work the same way.
Agree on the details
- Unit, floor and elevator availability at each stop
- Parking location and long carries
- Building contact and agreed access instructions
- Packing scope, large furniture and disassembly
Record arrangements your team has confirmed
MoveVision keeps access instructions with the job. It does not reserve elevators, arrange parking permits or obtain building approvals. Assign those follow-ups to a person and save the confirmed details.
Questions about this workflow
Can pickup and destination have different access details?
Yes. Each stop has its own floor, elevator, parking and access notes, plus an on-site contact. The crew can see the details for each stop in the phone browser.
Can I account for access in the quote?
Yes. The quote builder includes floors, elevator, long carry and custom charges. Your estimator can adjust the crew, hours and charges to fit the reviewed job.
