Planning a Move? Here�s Where To Begin

Sharing is caring!

If you’re preparing to move, whether it’s across town or across the country, you probably already know you’ve got a big project ahead of you. Planning what to do with all of your stuff is usually the best place to start, so here are some steps to get you going.

Sort and Pare

Before you pack a single box, it can be helpful to sort through your belongings to determine what you want to keep and what you’re ready to part with. It can be tempting to just toss everything into boxes, telling yourself that you’ll decide what to do with your stuff when you get to your new home. However, paring down before packing is a smart move. Not only will it save time when it comes to packing, but it can also save you money if the moving company you hire charges by volume. As a bonus, selling your discarded items online or at a garage sale can be a great way to earn money to put toward paying for your move.

Get Professional Help

If you’re moving house furniture and all of your household goods, it can be a smart idea to hire a moving service. Many movers will take care of the entire process, from showing up with boxes and materials to securely pack up your stuff to unpacking everything once you’re in your new home. Even if you are more of a do-it-yourself packer, using a mover can help you with the heavy lifting of your move. Professionals will carefully load, transport, and unload your belongings, saving you a lot of headaches (and backaches)!

Begin Packing

Some people are more comfortable packing their own possessions, so if this is your plan it’s a good idea to start boxing up your stuff as soon as you know a move is on the horizon. Begin with out-of-season clothing and items you use less frequently to get them out of the way. Packing keepsakes and decorator items should be next on the list. Then, when the move is imminent, box up kitchenware, linens, clothing, and other items you’ll be using right up until your move.

From sorting to packing, it’s a wise idea to start dealing with your possessions as soon as you know you’ll be moving. Paring things down, hiring professional movers, then diving into boxing things up will help ensure you have an easy and successful relocation.
