Preparing for Your Upcoming Move

Our previous article covered the importance of hiring and scheduling your full service movers and packers as soon as you know what day you want to move. We also discussed why you should inventory your belongings. Today, we will look at more tips to help you prepare for your upcoming move.

DONATE, SELL, OR THROW AWAY ITEMS

Now is the time to get rid of items you no longer want, need, or plan to use. There is no reason to pay your full service movers and packers to handle items you don’t need. Once you decide what you want to get rid of, offer any items you wish to family and/or friends, then plan a garage sale or donate them to a local non-profit, and take items that are no longer usable to the dump.

MAKE CHECKLISTS

Don’t underestimate the power of a good checklist! Making a checklist of what you need to do before, during, and after your move can help you stay organized. You may decide to have separate checklists for each family member and also for each different activity. For instance, you may have a checklist to follow once your movers and packers arrive. You may have another checklist for your first night in your new home. And, you could have yet another checklist for unpacking your belongings.
