Moving Tips for your next move.

The day of your move you should be ready for the movers to come and start moving your belongings when they arrive. Having your items ready to go is very important for a smooth moving process.


The furniture you will be moving should be cleared off and emptied out. Some movers do not require the removal of clothes from furniture but it is not a bad idea to have them empty if you have any stairs involved.


Be available on all loading days. Movers will have questions. Do not hesitate to ask any questions you might have to your movers. Before the movers leave do a final walk through your home to check all closets and storage areas to make sure nothing was missed.


Most moving companies can not transport hazardous materials such as items that are flammable, corrosive or explosive. Moving can be stressful, plan ahead and be ready on your moving day. Here are some moving tips we recommend for a smooth, easy experience:



  • Make sure the movers have a good contact number to reach you.

  • Tell the movers about any special items you might be concerned with.

  • Empty all papers and breakables from your furniture.

  • Have all the furniture cleared off and ready.

  • Stay nearby in case the movers have any questions.

  • Feel free to ask the movers any questions as they work.

  • Keep your children and pets out of the movers path.

  • If you have very fragile boxes try to separate them from the others and tell your movers about them.

  • Disassemble as many of your items as you can such as beds, dresser mirrors, electronics and your washer and dryer.

  • Provide the movers and helpers with a clean water supply and restroom facilities.

  • The items that will be traveling with you, clothes, papers, etc. should be put in one place or in the vehicle that you will be taking with you. This will help prevent them from being loaded on the truck and having to find them later.

  • Get a good nights sleep and have a good breakfast the morning of the move.




Helpful things that you might want to keep around while getting ready for your move and packing your belongings:



  • Plenty of box tape for your boxes.

  • A large marker or sticker labels to mark boxes.

  • Tools like a hammer, box knife, phillips and flathead screwdriver and pliers.

  • Packing paper and/or bubble wrap.

  • Shrink wrap and mattress bags if you need them.

  • Bottles of water (stay hydrated).

  • Snacks like granola bars or fruit (stay energized).

Furniture Moving Joke from: jokesfunny.wordpress.com

Co-workers sympathized as a woman as she complained that her back was really sore from moving furniture.

“Why didn’t you wait until your husband got home?” someone asked.

“I could have,” the woman told them. “But the couch is easier to move if he’s not on it.”

Infinity Moving wants to wish all of Austin a Happy New Year!

We hope the best for everyone this New Year 2009! Here are some things that happened in 2008 from Guinness World Records. Enjoy yourself and keep your new resolutions.

Guinness World Records has spent over 50 years chronicling remarkable record-breaking feats and 2008 was one of the best years yet," said Craig Glenday, Editor-In-Chief, Guinness World Records. "With well over 1,000 claims a week, we were thrilled to validate some of the most jaw-dropping, triumphant and mind-boggling records from around the world."
After sifting through its voluminous files, Guinness World Records highlights the following record moments as the best of the year.

He PingPing and Svetlana Meet - Opposites attract, especially when it comes to the media as He PingPing, the World's Smallest Man, met Svetlana Pankratova, the World's Longest Legs, in London on September 16, 2008. Standing at an astounding 6' 5" tall, the Russian beauty's legs measure 51.9 inches long where as the tiny 20-year old from Inner Mongolia, China, measures only 21.9 inches total!

Powerful Actor and Actress in Hollywood - Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie nabbed Tinseltown's top spot this year when they were crowned the Most Powerful Actors in Hollywood. Jolie jointly held the title with her hubby's ex Jennifer Aniston in 2007, while Pitt ended Tom Cruise's four-year reign as the Most Powerful Actor.

High Score on a Single Song for Guitar Hero III - Video game prodigy Chris Chike scored a staggering 899,703 points on the song "Through the Fire and Flames" on August 29,2008. Chris set the Guinness World Record on Guitar Hero's toughest track besting the previous record
holder Danny Johnson's score of 890,971 points on the same song.

Tallest Man - China's Bao Xi Shun (7 feet 8.95 inches) recaptured the record as the world's Tallest Living Man from Ukrainian Leonid Stadnyk (8 feet 5.5 inch). In order to ensure the highest level of accuracy in this category, guidelines for the title were amended earlier
this year. After repeated requests to measure Stadnyk in person went unanswered, Guinness World Records returned the title to Xi Shun in compliance with its new regulations.

Gathering of People Wearing Underpants - 116 bold and nearly-naked people gathered in their underpants at St. Pancras station on November 13, 2008. The members of Pants to Poverty not only received the Guinness World Record but brought global attention to their ethical fashion cause.

Highest Revenue Generated by an Entertainment Product in 24 Hours - In May 2008, Grand Theft Auto IV became the most profitable entertainment release of all-time when it crushed the competition by selling 3.6 million units and earning $310 million in its first day of release. The
record-breaking sales far surpassed any video game, film and book release including Harry Potter.

Largest Group Shower - Eco pioneers Ludacris and Tommy Lee along with hundreds of people took part in the world's Largest Shower at the Planet Hollywood Hotel in Las Vegas for the show Battleground Earth, which explores ways to help the environment.

Fastest Bed - Racing full-throttle through the streets of London, Britain's Edd China set the record for the Fastest Bed on November 13, 2008. At a whopping 69 mph, China raced his way to another Guinness World Record.

Largest Rubber Band Ball - Florida resident Joel Waul unveiled the world's Largest Rubber Band Ball at 9,032 pounds. Measuring 6 feet, 7 inches tall and with a diameter of 25 feet, this popular record easily surpassed the previous mark by more than 4,000 pounds.
