Leave or donate

Your new home is a new start so don’t bring the old and unwanted baggage along with you. Instead, sort out what you need and leave the rest behind. This applies to certain household goods too. You have the option of donating things as well. Getting rid of clothes, old furniture, and fittings, toys and whatnot will further reduce the load that you have to carry.

This, in turn, would reduce the space requirements you would have to look for when booking long-distance moving services. Remember lesser loads mean lesser moving costs, so be smart!

The ‘Open first’ box

When you are packing things, it is natural to use boxes. However, you wouldn’t know what is in them unless you open them up, and this makes things messy. To reduce your work and make settling into your new home easier, make sure that you always label the boxes on the outside. You could include your contact information on them as well to be extra cautious with your belongings.

Set aside a separate ‘open first’ box and pack all the absolute essentials you would require to start over at your new home. Include personal belongings, bed sheets, blankets, etc. into it and make unpacking at the end of the day less tiresome for you!

Don’t load everything into the moving truck

Another factor that you need to be mindful of when moving is to not load everything into the moving truck, even if all the boxes have your personal information displayed. Sure you might be tempted to, especially when you notice even the smallest amount of extra space. However, when it comes to important documents, the ‘open first’ box, and fragile items, you might want to think again on this choice!

Select the right movers

Getting good house movers is a big part of moving. You need to find those that not only meet your budget but are also quick and reliable in their services. So look for moving firms with some of the best customer service and reviews by previous clients and then sign up for a full service moving experience!

After all, moving shouldn’t only be about trying to reduce cost, but rather making sure that you get all your belongings transported in the safest way to exactly where you want!

Pack smart

A mistake that many tend to make when packing their things into boxes is messing up the sizes. It is quite surprising that an assumption that heavier things ought to go into bigger boxes and the lighter ones should go into smaller boxes, has convinced people to pack things in this way. However, the truth is that doing so only makes carrying them harder.

Instead, switch your heavier items into smaller and less spacious boxes and make moving and storage much easier than ever before!
