3 Ways To Make Your Move Easy Breezy

Posted on: 8 April 2015

Moving should not be a super stressful situation, especially if you are prepared and organized. In order to make your move easy, follow these 3 tips:

1. Do Color Coordination

First, make sure that you color coordinate each room with the boxes that they belong in. To do this, buy colored duct tape or even painting tape in various colors. Tape your boxes with packing tape as normal along the flaps, and then place a strip of colored tape across the top and side of the box. 

When you move, you can place a piece of colored tape on each room in your new house, and the tape will coordinate with the colors on the boxes so that each box goes into the right room. While this may take a little more time, it is well worth the effort so that you do not have to guess at what you have in the boxes and which rooms they should go in.

2. Hire Movers

Second, do not try to do the move on your own, especially if you have heavy furniture. Hiring a moving company and pay for as many movers as you can afford so that the process is finished quickly. 

When you hire movers, you can hire them for several tasks. For example, they can pack boxes for you, they can move boxes, they can lift furniture, they can unload the boxes into your new home, and they can also unpack if you desire.

If you want to make sure that your belongings are packed the right way, then just hire the movers to move the boxes and furniture. You will have an easier time finding your belongings because you will know what is in each box.

3. Pack by Room

Lastly, pack your home by the room instead of doing a random box here and there. As you pack each room, go through the belongings, get rid of trash, and make a pile to go to your local Salvation Army store or thrift store.

As you do this, you can weed out the things that do not need to be moved, which will eliminate the need for as many boxes. In addition, when you pack by room, keep the boxes in the room where they were packed so that they do not all get mixed up.

This will allow the movers to move your stuff one room at a time, and then they will have an easier time unloading everything into the right place.

By doing these 3 things, you can move without any problems, and you will not feel the stress nearly as much. For more help, contact professional moving and storage services to learn more.
