More Moving Tips - Get Organized Early

Our moving tip of the day is to get organized early! There is always more to do that one might think with a move, so try to start at least a week earlier than you had planned. This way you will be much less stressed as the move-out day approaches. Here are some more useful tips:

  • Move out and pack room by room. This helps you stay organized and not lose anything in the move.
  • Get a calendar and map your plan for the move. Put key milestones on the calendar like when you want to have each room finished, when you will get your self storage unit, when you will get your moving truck, etc.
  • Don't be afraid to ask for help and delegate. Your friends and family with surely help you in a time of need. Call them up weeks in advance to schedule their assistance. If you choose to hire professional movers, make sure you hire only the best.  Ask for referrals from friends and look at reviews online to find the best company possible.
  • Schedule to have your services set up at your new house in advance. Services like cable, internet, phone, electricity, gas, and water may need at least a week's notice before being able to perform an installation. Don't save these for the last minute.
Hopefully these tips will help - come back for more next week!
