Moving and Packing Tips
Our team wants to make your relocation to the area is as easy as possible—so here are some tips to streamline your move!
Before Your Move
Planning your move a month or two ahead of time will ensure success on moving day. During the planning stage, be sure to…
- Stock up on packing materials—Boxes, tape, packing peanuts, and bubble wrap are all packing essentials.
- Be a minimalist—You don’t want to bring any extra belongings to your new home—consider hosting a yard sale or donating unused items to a local charity.
- Pack with care—Invest in sturdy moving boxes, bubble wrap, and quality packing materials to protect your belongings. Take time to mark boxes with fragile items and place heavier items in smaller boxes.
- Get organized—Create an "OPEN ME FIRST" box containing the items you'll need right away, like toilet paper, towels, sheets, and any other items you can't do without. This will cut down on stress when you're first getting settled.
- Carefully review all moving documents—Before signing any documents from professional moving companies, make sure to read the fine print. Find out if your items will be the only ones on the truck and if they'll be put in storage anywhere before arriving at their new destination.
On Moving Day
Let's make moving day a breeze! Here's what you need to bring...
- Keep personal information—All personal information—including medication, financial records, IDs, and other important documents, should be kept with you on moving day.
- Bring an overnight bag—If you happen to make it to your new home before the moving truck, you'll want to have an overnight bag with all your essentials.
- Have contacts handy—You never know what could happen on moving day, so make sure to have your mover's contact information with you at all times.
After Your Move
You've finally moved into your new home—now it's time to start making memories! But first, be sure to…
- Change the locks—You don't know who has a copy of your new home's keys, so it's crucial to change the locks ASAP!
- Clean first—it's a lot easier to get into the nooks and crannies of your new home without furniture in the way. This way, you'll get the "fresh" feeling in addition to the "new" feeling!
- Unpack by room—you can make the seemingly daunting process of unpacking seem simpler by breaking it down into steps—we suggest starting with the most important rooms first, such as the bedroom or kitchen.
