Moving During Your Golden Years

Moving During Your Golden Years

in , , , ,

There comes a point in the lives of most senior citizens when downsizing becomes necessary.  Moving into a 55+ community, apartment, independent living facility or assisted living facility can not only help simplify things, but also keeps you engaged with planned activities, events and outings.  However, downsizing is difficult, especially for seniors.  If you are considering making a move during your golden years, a full service moving company can help make the process easier.

Today, we will take a look at a few tips to consider when moving during your golden years.

PASS DOWN ITEMS TO CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN

It can be very difficult to part with items that have a lifetime of memories attached to them.  This is the time to consider passing these items down to your children and grandchildren.  Not only will this give you peace of mind, but it will ensure these items remain in the family for the next generation to talk about and enjoy.

HAVE AN ESTATE SALE

Once you have sorted through your belongings and set aside those you either wish to keep or pass down to children and/or grandchildren, consider having an estate sale. This is a great way to ensure your belongings are purchased by people who want to have them while making a little cash on the side.

HIRE PROFESSIONAL MOVERS AND PACKERS

Now that you have downsized, it is time to hire a full service moving company to handle the rest.  In most cases, movers and packers can conduct moves to apartments, independent living, and assisted living facilities in a few hours.

3 Guys Moving is a full service moving company with more than three decades of experience handling all types of moves.  Our long distance and local movers take time to ensure your move is quick and smooth.  If you need piano moving, our piano movers are among the best in the business.  Some moving companies offer piano moving, but their piano movers lack the experience and knowledge to do the job right.  Remember, not every full service moving company has your best interests at heart, which is what makes 3 Guys Moving is different from most moving companies.  Give us a call to learn more today.

Packing Fragile, Antique and Collectible Items

in , ,

Fragile items, including antiques and collectibles, should be handled in a delicate manner.  When you hire an experienced moving and storing company such as 3 Guys Moving, your movers and packers will take extra time to ensure these items are safe and secure.  We also understand that sometimes people wish to pack these items themselves. Our next series of articles will cover some tips to consider when packing fragile items, antiques and collectibles.

USE NEW, STURDY BOXES

While it may be tempting to drag out old boxes from the attic, it is highly advisable that you purchase new, sturdy boxes when packing your collectibles.  When you hire a quality moving and storage company such as 3 Guys Moving, you will notice that the movers and packers always use sturdy, high quality boxes, especially when dealing with antiques, collectibles and items that are fragile.

WRAP/PACK ITEMS USING CUSHIONING MATERIALS

There are numerous types of cushioning material that can be used when packing fragile items.  Our movers and packers use a combination of materials depending on the fragility of the item(s) being packed. Some popular cushioning materials used by a moving and storage company include air pillows, bubble wrap, and foam peanuts. Movers and packers often pack photo albums and collectibles such as comic books and vintage magazines in mylar bags to keep them protected.

Our next article will cover more tips on protecting fragile items during your move.

SCHEDULE YOUR MOVERS AND PACKERS

Don’t wait until the last minute! You should schedule your movers and packers as soon as you know your move-in date to ensure their availability.

KNOW THE DIMENSIONS OF THE ROOM/SPACE THAT WILL BE YOURS

It is important to note that in most cases, dorms and apartments will not be large enough to accommodate all of your belongings.  Knowing the dimensions of your room/living space will help you determine what you can bring and what you need to leave at home.

Our next article will cover three more college moving strategies to consider.

Planning Your College Move

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.

Strategies for Unpacking

in , , ,

We are continuing our series on strategies for unpacking after a move.  Your friends at 3 Guys Moving understand that moving is stressful. The goal of our movers and packers is to ease your burden and make the process as simple and stress-free as possible.  When our full service movers bring items into your new home, we will place them wherever you ask for them to be placed.  Be sure to direct your movers and packers to place all boxes in their corresponding rooms.  They will assemble your furniture upon request.  Doing this will set you up for success as you begin the unpacking process.

Our previous article discussed the importance of prioritizing the rooms that need to be unpacked and tackling them one at a time.  We also covered breaking down empty boxes and moving them out of the way to help reduce “clutter anxiety”.  Let’s look at a few more unpacking tips to consider.

SET UP ELECTRONICS AND APPLIANCES

Try to unpack and set up the appliances and electronics you need to ensure your ability to be productive.  Computers, Wi-Fi, televisions, sound systems, coffee makers and air fryers are among some of the electronics and appliances you may want to consider setting up sooner than later.

BEGIN TO MAKE THE SPACE YOUR OWN

Making the space begin to feel like your own can ease stress and even help you keep your momentum.  Hang a few pictures, display family photos, fill the wine rack with wine, anything that makes your space feel like “home”.

EAT AND STAY HYDRATED

Physical limitations can keep you from achieving your unpacking goals.  While it is easy to lose track of time, be sure to stay hydrated and eat regular meals to help remain alert and keep your body in tip top shape.

Our next article will cover more unpacking tips courtesy of our movers and packers.

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.

UTILIZE POTS, BOWLS AND CONTAINERS

When packing your pots, bowls, and containers, try to put items inside of them before placing them in moving boxes.  Small kitchen items, spices, utensils, gadgets, etc. are ideal items to pack in pots, bowls and containers.

Packing Tips from Professional Movers and Packers

When moving, you have two choices for packing. You can either pack your belongings yourself or hire movers and packers to do it for you.  There are many advantages of using full service movers and packers.  For instance, a packing and moving company sends professionals who are equipped with the proper packing materials to securely pack your items.  Movers and packers not only save time but alleviate the stress of packing.

If you choose to pack yourself, you can still hire a moving company to transport your belongings.  Our next series of articles will offer some tips to consider if you choose to pack yourself.

PUT HANGING CLOTHES IN WARDROBE BOXES

Leaving your clothes on the hanger and hanging them in wardrobe boxes is ideal because it makes them so much easier to unpack.  All you need to do is have the movers and packers place the wardrobe boxes in their corresponding rooms and then transfer the clothes directly into the closets.

WRAP DRESSER DRAWERS

One simple but effective time saving trick is to leave your clothes and other items in your dresser drawers and securely shrink wrap them.  Once you get to your new home, simply unwrap the drawer and put it in the dresser.

MOVING OFFICE SPACE

Whether you are moving to an office in a different part of the building or moving to a new building all together, full service movers can make relocating a breeze.

MOVING AND STORAGE DURING A REMODEL

If you are remodeling certain parts of your home, keep in mind that a moving and storage company can move furniture and other items to a storage area then back to your home when your remodel is complete.

Reasons to Hire Full Service Movers

Reasons to Hire Full Service Movers vs Renting a Moving Container

in , , , ,

There are many options to consider when planning a move.  As we continue our series on the advantages of hiring full service movers and packers vs. renting a moving container, we will examine two more aspects that make a moving and packing company an attractive and wise investment.  Previous articles discussed how movers and packers alleviate the burden of packing, how full service movers know how to keep items safe during transport, the fact that a packing and moving company has special equipment to assist with your move, and how they do all the heavy lifting for you.  Let’s take a look at two more advantages hiring a full service moving company has over renting a moving container.

FULL SERVICE MOVERS CAN HANDLE SPECIALTY ITEMS

Certain items, such as organs, pianos and bulky equipment, must be handed with special care. Piano movers, for instance, are specifically trained and equipped to disassemble, pack, transport and re-assemble these sensitive and expensive items. Piano moving is an example of something you would want to hire a professional moving company to handle.

FULL SERVICE MOVERS AND PACKERS GET THE JOB DONE QUICK

Movers and packers know how to get the job done in a timely and efficient manner.  Time is money and hiring a professional moving and packing company will most definitely save time.
