Keep these ideas in mind. They can make your move a little easier and less stressful. Sometimes we feel like doing the moving ourselves to save money. The fact is, moving is hard work and always takes longer than you expected. So, we recommend hiring a moving company.
Here are some things to consider:
Organize: Organize everything to the best of your ability — ahead of time. Box things up well and don’t think you can throw it all together at the last minute.
Label: Label everything. You think you will, but no, you will not remember. Make sure the movers know which room each of your items and boxes go to.
Timing: Do you know moving company rates are higher at the beginning and end of the month? This is when most people move at the end of a lease or mortgage agreement. Try and schedule at time mid-month. And, if you can, avoid weekends.
Pair Down: Moving is a good time to weed through your old stuff. If you’ve not used it in the last six months, get rid of it. You most likely don’t need it.
Photos: Some people have trouble letting things go. This is especially true if there is an emotional attachment. Take photographs of the stuff you wish to hold on to the memories, but don’t need. If you have expensive or fragile items keep photographs for insurance records.
Copies: Make copies of your important documents and keep them in a safe place.
Categorize: Organize everything into categories that are easy to understand and unpack later.
Donate: Donate the things you don’t want. You will feel much better about letting more stuff go.
Disconnect: Schedule your utility disconnect times before the move. Also, consider when you need to connect at the new location?
Change your Address: Don’t forget to plan ahead and change your address. You can do it online through the postal service.
It doesn’t matter if you plan to move your home or office. Big sofas or small side tables. Moving can be expensive, especially interstate moving. Your organization is very important. Plan things out and start on the process early as possible. List all your items that you want White Star to move and organize the items you want to move on yourself.
