The Ultimate Moving Tips Guide!
You can never be too prepared when it comes to your moving day. There are a million and one things
to think about when moving. We’ve thought up of the 10 most useful moving tips for your moving
day to make sure you don’t forget anything and that everything goes as smooth as can be on moving
day.
1. Pack a bag containing all your essentials the night before moving
Save yourself a lot of trouble and pack your most used items in a bag a day before moving.
You’ll be thankful you won’t have to rummage through all your boxes to find your tooth brush
and soap. Keep it in your car to make sure it doesn’t get lost. Things you’ll want to include:
ï‚· Fresh clothes and underwear
ï‚· Paper toilet
ï‚· Phone charger
ï‚· Snacks and drinks
ï‚· Toothpaste and toothbrush
ï‚· Makeup
ï‚· Deodorant
ï‚· Washcloth, towel and soap
2. Use clear plastic bins to pack when you’re moving
A great way to locate things quickly is to use clear bins for items you will need to use first
after moving. Clear boxes allow you to see what’s inside at a glance. You won’t need to open
5 boxes before finding your dishware.
3. Label your boxes
In addition to labeling what’s inside your moving boxes you could also write in what
room they go. This way you can unpack by room and it will feel more manageable. The
movers will also know exactly where to put them.
4. Label your boxes on the side
Something you might not have thought of is labeling your moving boxes on the side. It’ll
save you the hassle of unstacking a pile of boxes to see what’s written on the bottom one.
Efficiency is key when moving. You could even color code the boxes! One color for
every different room of the new home you’re moving into.
5. Have your new bathroom cleaned before moving
Chances are you’re probably going to want to take a shower after your day of moving.
You’ll be quite happy to hop into a shower that’s already nice and clean.
6. Keep Zipblocks handy for items that need to be taken apart on moving day
You wouldn’t want to lose the screws for your TV mount on your moving day. Have
Zipblocks handy to secure those screws inside the bags and tape them to the main item.
They’ll be safe and secure on your moving day. Keep your hammer and screwdrivers
near also.
7. Use your suitcases to reduce the amount of boxes on your moving day
You’ll have that much less boxes to get rid of by using your suitcases on your moving
day.
8. Changez votre adresse deux semaines avant de déménager
N’oubliez pas de changer votre adresse deux semaines avant de déménager pour votre
malle. Cela inclus vos abonnements, cartes de crédit, Paypal et Amazon.
9. Donate things you no longer want to a charity organization
Arrange a pick up from a charity organization a week or two before moving. This way
your perfectly good items will be put to good use instead of ending up on the side of the
road. Plus you won’t have to move them yourself!
