Where to Stay When You Need to Make an Interim Move

Where to Stay When You Need to Make an Interim Move

in , , , , , ,

There are many reasons why someone may need to make an interim move. It is more common than you think. In fact, our movers and packers see it all the time. Sometimes people are in the process of building a new home that will not be ready by the time they need to be out of their current home. Or, perhaps they have been re-located for work and have not yet found a permanent place to call home.  Whatever the reason, an interim move means you need to find a place to stay for a short period of time. Our next series of articles will discuss some ideas to explore should you be faced with needing to make an interim move. Let’s take a look:

SHORT TERM VACATION RENTAL

There are numerous short term vacation rental options available through online marketplaces such as VRBO and Airbnb. Since they are fully furnished, you don’t have to worry about moving your belongings out of your home and into an interim residence. Your moving and storage company can simply store them for you until you are ready to move to your permanent location.

MONTH-TO-MONTH LEASE

There are some rental homes, condos, and apartments that offer month-to-month leases. You may pay a little more, but you won’t be bound to a long-term contract. This is ideal for people who prefer not to put their belongings in storage because there are usually both furnished and unfurnished options available.

Our next article will discuss more options to consider for an interim move.

Garage Sale Preparation

Garage Sale Preparation

in , , , , ,

We are continuing our series on preparing for your garage sale.  Our full service movers recommend downsizing and/or getting rid of items you don’t plan to use in your new home.  This saves time and money over the long term.  Our previous article covered the first steps in garage sale preparation including determining the date(s) of your garage sale, organizing items, and cleaning the items to make them look their best.  Today, we will look at three more garage sale preparation tips to consider.

PRICE ITEMS

A key to a successful garage sale is to strategically price the items you are selling. People who attend garage sales are often looking for a “deal”. Price the items so you have some wiggle room to negotiate.

RECRUIT FRIENDS TO HELP

Buy some pizzas and sodas and recruit as many friends as you can to help!  This will not only make the day go faster but will also ease the burden of doing everything yourself.

ADVERTISE!!

Be sure to advertise your garage sale in local newspapers, homeowners’ association newsletters and with street signs. The more traffic you have, the quicker you will be able to sell the items and wrap up the day.

Planning Your College Move

in , , , , ,

Ahhh, the excitement of preparing to go off to college.  A new adventure with new freedoms and experiences await!  While the anticipation is exciting, the first step in beginning this new chapter of your life is to plan your move.  Whether you are attending school locally or moving across the country, a packing and moving company can help ease the burdens of this often daunting process.

Even parents who are accustomed to utilizing a packing and moving company for residential moves often do not think about calling when their child goes off to college.  The long distance and local movers at 3 Guys Moving have handled hundreds of college moves.  We’ve helped students move into dorms, apartments, sorority and fraternity houses and more.  We are especially popular with music students who require piano moving as our piano movers are among the best and most qualified in the business.

CONNECT WITH YOUR ROOMMATE(S)

Space in dorms and apartments is often tight. Consider connecting with your roommate(s) to discuss what items each of you will bring. Coordinating items such as mini refrigerators, curtains, microwaves, coffee machines, etc. can help avoid having duplicate items in a limited space.

SCHEDULE A MOVE-IN DAY/TIME

Next, schedule a move-in day and time.  In some cases, this may be set by the college or apartment complex.  It is important to know the exact day and time you plan to move in so you can begin organizing the details of your move.

Reducing the Stress of Unpacking

in , , , ,

Moving can be a daunting task.  Movers and packers are a tremendous asset on the front end, but when it comes to unpacking and organizing, that is something most homeowners wish to tackle themselves.  As we’ve mentioned in previous articles, it can be very helpful to have your full service movers unload the boxes and furniture into their corresponding rooms. This will save you the headache of doing it yourself.  We also discussed setting up your electronics and appliances, beginning to make the space your own, and the importance of eating and staying hydrated.  Today, we will cover three more unpacking tips to consider.

SET A GOAL FOR EACH DAY

Try to set a goal for each day. This not only helps you to stay on track with your unpacking, but also gives you a feeling of accomplishment.  Just make sure that the goals you are setting are reasonable and achievable.

INVITE FRIENDS OVER

Invite your friends to come over to help!  A few extra hands can make an incredible impact and help expedite your unpacking process.

TAKE TIME OFF!

While unpacking is important, it is equally important to take regular breaks and time off to help refresh your mind and body. Consider taking the afternoon off to catch a movie, explore the local area, grab a bite to eat at a new restaurant, etc.

Planning Your Unpacking Strategy

Planning Your “Unpacking” Strategy

in , , , , ,

Unpacking is one of the most daunting tasks of moving.  Even if you hire movers and packers to pack your items, you still must deal with unpacking and organizing. Sitting in a room full of boxes can seem overwhelming.  However, it does not have to be a stressful process.  Our next series of articles will cover some tips to consider when you are planning your unpacking strategy. Let’s take a look:

TACKLE ONE ROOM AT A TIME

One way to help prevent becoming overwhelmed is to make a plan to unpack one room at a time.  Many people choose to unpack their kitchen first, but you can prioritize the order in which you unpack each room based on your needs.

BREAK DOWN EMPTY BOXES

Clutter causes anxiety, and one way to reduce “clutter anxiety” is to break down each box once it is unpacked and either move it to a designated part of the house or throw it away.

Our next series of articles will cover more tips to help ease the stress of unpacking.

Decreasing the Stress of a Long Distance Move

in , , , ,

Long distance moves are often a source of anxiety.  However, with proper planning and a trusted packing and moving company, your long distance move does not have to be a stressful one.  Your friends at 3 Guys Moving understand and are here to help.  Let’s take a look at some planning tips to help decrease the stress of a long distance move.

DETERMINE YOUR TARGET DATE

The first step is to determine a target date for your movers and packers to arrive. When planning this date, consider how long it will take the moving company to transport your belongings to your new location.  Once you have determined a timeframe, give you moving company a call to schedule your move.

PREPARE FOR MOVERS AND PACKERS

The better prepared you are, the easier it will be when your movers and packers arrive.  Declutter and get rid of items you no longer need. Set aside items you do not want the moving and storage company to pack and transport.  Try to keep children and pets in a separate room or designated space so your movers and packers can move about freely with no obstacles.

TAKE ESSENTIALS WITH YOU

Depending on how far your long distance move is, it could be several days before you are reunited with your belongings.  Make sure you take essential items with you such as medication, children’s toys, diapers, personal care items, laptop computers and tablets, pet food bowls and food, etc.

Remember, 3 Guys Moving is a moving and storage company, so if you need to store furniture or other belongings we can do so in our 23,000 sq.ft. climate-controlled warehouse.  In fact, we are an approved military storage facility.  Our movers and packers are experienced and equipped to handle your move.  We even have trained piano movers on staff.
