Key to success
Things can easily go missing on moving day. To avoid losing any keys, create a "Key Box" the size of a shoebox, marked clearly and placed somewhere safe for easy access, away from everything to be packed. During the move should you or your move supervisor find any loose keys, locks or even air conditioning remote controls, they should place these items in the Key Box. Once packing is complete, review the items in the box, returning some to their rightful place if appropriate and holding onto any others you may need to locate in a hurry or return to your landlord.
