Moving is exciting but very few people look forward to the actual moving day. But with these helpful steps your move will be easier whether you are moving across town or cross country.
- Schedule your move at least a month in advance. Moving companies get booked weeks in advance, so don’t wait until the last minute. Moving companies will ask you about your current house and your future home size and will send a representative to do a walk through of your current home to give you a detailed cost estimate.
- When moving it is important to make sure that you aren’t moving items that you no longer need. Lighten your workload and potential stress by decluttering before you start the formal packing process. This can be difficult as it means figuring out what to toss, keep, sell, or donate. It is important to know how much space you will be going to as not everything fits perfectly!
- I have learned to let the moving company pack my items, makes life easier and they are the professionals and know what they are doing.
- Schedule/transfer services. Don’t forget to have your services transferred and mail forwarded to your new address.
