I have some huge news. It is moving season! Yes, it holds true. With summertime around the corner, lots of people are planning a move. (I'm not ... but lots of other people are.) Whether it is across town or across the country, moving can be difficult. Having personally moved 9 times in the first 9 years of marriage ... I wish to consider myself somewhat of a professional on the subject. Well perhaps not a professional, however I have actually definitely discovered a couple of ideas and techniques along the method and I am thrilled to share my ideas to make your relocation stress free. Tips to Make Your Move Stress Free
PURGE
Before you begin packing, take a moment and PURGE your home! If you don't use it, enjoy it or there is no sentimental value to it, don't move it, purge it. You can see my tips to decluttering your home by browsing on my blog site for 7 Hours to a Decluttered House. I recommend you go through this procedure prior to you load a thing. Make your move stress free by not moving things you don't use or love.
PACK
Lease or purchase boxes and start packaging. Begin by packing the things you use least. Take extra care with things that are vulnerable and do not over pack your boxes. You desire to make sure no box is too heavy to fairly lift. As you get closer to the time of your move, pack up your kitchen, switch to using paper goods to make your life much easier. Make certain to identify your boxes with the spaces that they will enter into your new home.
Make sure to put in a change of address form with USPS. Notify energy business that you require to shut off utilities on a certain date and request they be turned on at your brand-new house.
STRATEGY IT OUT
Another terrific way to make your move tension complimentary is to determine your brand-new home to ensure that your furniture will fit through doors and into the spaces you prepare to put it in. Do not move it if something will not fit. Contribute it or sell it.
EMPTY IT OUT
Figure out if you are taking any food with you and pack it up. If you are moving close, it is easy to take all your food with you. If you are moving a long range, do not prepare to move food.
NIGHT BAG
Load a first night box or bag. You may not be able to get whatever unpacked right away when you get here in your new house. Be sure that you have a bag or box that consists of everything you will need for the very first couple of days in your brand-new home like toiletries, a change of clothes, cleaning up materials, toilet paper, medications, paper goods, treats and bed linen.
CLEAN
Clean your new house prior to moving into it. When your old home is empty tidy your old house. If you are moving far away and it might be much easier to employ help if you are not able to here do it yourself for any factor, this is trickier.
