Review the two ends of your move
| Location | Access to review |
|---|---|
| New Jersey pickup | For a New Jersey apartment, check the loading entrance and reserved elevator hours. For a house, include basement and attic belongings in your inventory. Tell us whether street parking or a shared driveway limits loading access. |
| North Carolina delivery | Confirm when you can receive belongings at your North Carolina home. If you are coordinating a closing or waiting for keys, share that uncertainty before pickup. For an apartment, ask about the loading entrance and elevator availability. |
