This is a time when there have been many changes to the house. Transfer, entry to children's school - you have many reasons to look for a new home, sometimes in the same city and other cases in a whole new city. While finding a comfortable new home that fits your budget is part of it, packing and moving is another important thing that will take time and energy. Here are some tips to make your job easier.
1. Cleaning - this is the first step. You may be emotionally attached to many things, but you get rid of things you don't use at all. Deep cleaning a new home before moving in also important for a pleasant moving experience.
2. Group items - clothes, books, utensils, etc. Pack them in different boxes and take notes to see what's in them. This also makes it easier to open.
3. Important values and documents are your personal responsibility. Take them with you.
4. Fragile items to wrap in bubbles. Or you can wrap it in clothes and towels. Pack household goods rigidly for the maximum protection of the valuables.
5. Of course, you will have to rely on packers and moving companies. You can't move all the heavy furniture and other household appliances on your own. Take the time to find the right packers and moving companies.
6. If you can skip the weekend and are looking for a midweek shift, you can get a discount from the moving company. Usually, they are busiest on the weekends, and hence the rates also go up.
7. There's nothing wrong with capturing the basic topics you send through packages and moving companies. In case of damage, you can claim this by showing a photo to prove to your group that it is intact until transportation.
