Survey both ends of a move before scheduling or final pricing. Record origin and destination access, parking and loading conditions, building requirements, packing readiness, specialty handling, and open follow-up items in one field-ready checklist.
Build your moving site survey checklist
Use the starting checklist as a field guide, edit it for your operation, and keep origin and destination conditions separate.
1. Move & survey details
All fields are optional. Load a saved inventory to reuse job reference information when available.
2. Origin & destination site details
Keep the truck-to-door path, building requirements, and access conditions separate for each end of the move.
Origin
Destination
3. Site survey checklist
Mark an item when reviewed. Use the notes field for distances, measurements, reservation details, exceptions, or follow-up questions.
4. Move scope & follow-up notes
Capture details that should carry into scheduling, crew planning, the job sheet, or your own estimate process.
This checklist helps record move conditions and follow-up items. It does not calculate truck size, labor time, shipment weight, moving price, or legal moving documents, and it does not replace building, parking, insurance, permit, or safety requirements that may apply to the move.

How to use a moving site survey checklist
- Record the customer, move date, and other job reference details, or load the saved Moving Inventory when available.
- Walk the origin and record truck parking, carry path, stairs or elevator use, building rules, access controls, and any loading restrictions.
- Walk the destination separately and confirm the unloading path, parking or loading zone, stairs, elevator reservation, building requirements, and room-access constraints.
- Review the move scope, packing readiness, disassembly or reassembly, bulky or specialty items, and any extra stops or storage needs.
- Save the survey in this browser or print it, then carry the verified details into your own scheduling, crew planning, job sheet, and estimate process.
Moving site survey checklist for origin and destination walkthroughs
A moving site survey, sometimes called a pre-move survey or walkthrough, helps a moving crew document the conditions that affect the work before move day. This checklist keeps origin access and destination access separate so parking, loading zones, stairs, elevators, long carries, service entrances, building rules, and security details do not get mixed together.
Use the checklist to record packing status, rooms and areas included, specialty handling, disassembly or reassembly needs, extra stops, photos, and unresolved questions. The tool is designed for field planning and information handoff; it does not supply moving rates, recommend a truck size, or create a bill of lading or moving contract.
Moving site survey checklist FAQ
What should a moving site survey include?
A practical survey should record the move reference, origin and destination access, parking or loading conditions, stairs and elevators, building requirements, packing status, specialty handling, and open follow-up items that could affect the field plan.
Why should origin and destination access be recorded separately?
The pickup and delivery locations can have different parking, carry distances, elevators, stairs, loading areas, security procedures, and building rules. Keeping them separate makes the survey easier to hand off to the crew.
Does this checklist calculate moving price, labor hours, or truck size?
No. It is a site-survey and planning worksheet. Use your own estimating, staffing, truck-selection, and compliance process for the move.
Where is a saved survey stored?
Save in Browser stores one draft in local storage in this browser. It does not automatically sync to another browser or device.
