Moving Into a Lake Home

Lake homes can be harder to reach than typical homes. Plan ahead.

Check access

Narrow roads, gates and steep driveways may require a smaller truck.

Measure

Doors, stairs and decks for large furniture.

Share details with movers

Gate codes, parking and the route.

Plan outdoor items

Decide what goes on decks and docks.

What should I tell movers about a lake home? Road access, driveway slope, gate codes, parking for the truck, stairs and any tight spots.

Do large items need special planning? Yes. Measure doors and stairways, and ask whether a smaller shuttle truck is needed.
