You can do this if you have time, but it’s not required. If your movers need to dismantle any furniture, they will reassemble it in your new home.

Why is there no phone number on your site?

Am I guaranteed that my online move estimate will be 100% accurate?
Additional moving costs may be required by any moving company so you may need to pay extra at the end of your move. However, the more details you provide beforehand, the more accurate your quote will be.

Should I store items that won’t fit in my new home? 
?You can choose to store items that won’t fit. However, if you have items that are old or have little value, you may be better to sell or donate them instead of paying the high cost of storing them for a long period. ?
