We are concluding our series of articles offering valuable tips and advice to help you plan your long distance move. Three Guys Moving is a full service moving company with both long distance and local movers who understand the ins and outs of planning all types of moves. Our previous articles covered how it’s important to begin planning your move as early as possible, developing and budget for your move, researching the new area you plan to make your home, purging your belongings, hiring a reputable full service moving company, being strategic with your packing, and keeping valuables separated from your general belongings.

Today, we will look at two more strategies to consider as you plan your long distance move.

Notify Everyone About Your Move

Before your move, be sure to distribute your new address and contact information to:

The post office for mail forwarding
Your bank and credit card companies
Your utility companies
Your employer
Friends and family
Anyone else who may need your new address ASAP

Doing this helps ensure you don’t miss important mail or bills during your transition and that all of your information is up to date.

Don’t Forget About Your Car

Depending on the distance of your move, you may need to book a car transport service or calculate driving time and plan for overnight stops. If you’ll be leaving your car behind for any length of time, be sure to prepare it for storage by taking out all personal belongings and disconnecting the battery.

Take Care of Yourself

Finally, don’t forget to take care of yourself during the hectic moving process. Get enough rest, eat healthy meals, and take breaks when you need them.

Remember, moving can be stressful, but it doesn’t have to be. With the right planning and preparation, you can enjoy a successful long distance move.
