All of the above is good advice. I jump in to emphasize the point of getting the garage floor coated as early as possible. Liquid Floors, and other contractors, has a queue of several weeks, but with this much lead time should be able to schedule close to your closing date.

We had all household goods moved into the large living room rather than the garage and were lucky to get those floors coated quickly. Ever grateful at not having to move goods twice. This also gives you the incentive to get those boxes unpacked quickly instead of sitting untouched in the garage for months. (Two years after our village was first populated, I can see unpacked moving boxes in garages.)

Also IMPORTANT... If there are any things heavy to come through the front door (i.e. clothes washer), have the mover lay a piece of plywood over the door threshold. Those thresholds are a tough plastic composite, but not tough enough. A piece of plywood, and large tires on moving dollies will lessen the pressure.

Best wishes for smooth moving. You'll appreciate your early planning.
