Practical moving guidance
Plan local home and apartment moving around your downtown Los Angeles home, apartment or loft. Share both full addresses, your inventory, elevator and loading arrangements, and the help you need with Tray.
The details make the difference
Walk through each room with your inventory. Include the garage, patio, closets and any separate storage space. Mark furniture or boxes that will stay behind, and tell Tray about changes since the estimate. A room count alone does not describe a large sofa, a packed garage or fragile pieces that need individual preparation.
Keep medication, identification, keys, chargers and the documents you need during the move in a bag that travels with you. Add a change of clothes and basic first-night supplies. Set that bag aside from the moving inventory so it is easy to identify.
The details make the difference
Check both addresses before choosing a loading plan. Share the floor, outside steps, elevator arrangements and the distance from the permitted loading spot to the entrance. Ask the property manager about reservations, loading windows or required documents; do not assume the destination uses the same rules as your current building.
Clear hallways and doorways, and arrange a safe place for children and pets. If someone else holds the keys or controls the loading entrance, confirm who will meet the crew and when. Tell Tray about access uncertainties before moving day.
Before moving day
Share an accurate inventory, both addresses, access details and your preferred dates. Tray can discuss the crew, equipment and packing your move calls for.
Start planningThe details make the difference
Show the crew the full inventory, the items staying behind and any fragile or oversized pieces already discussed. Explain which rooms need packing help and which boxes are ready. Review the agreed scope and any new access information before loading begins.
Tray describes a process using dedicated private Trays and protective seals applied with you present, followed by loading and delivery. Ask how that process applies to your belongings and the services in your own moving plan. Confirm who will be available to review pickup and delivery.

Give the crew a simple room plan so labels translate into useful placement. Keep the entrance and carrying route clear while unloading. Discuss any unpacking work included in your plan and identify the essentials you want available first.
Before leaving the old home, check cupboards, drawers, closets, outdoor areas and storage spaces. At the destination, walk through the delivery together and raise any questions through the contact process in your moving agreement. Keep the estimate, inventory and relevant documents accessible.
