Hello World! Welcome Friends! There is a lot to think about when you’re moving to a new house. Aside from all of the life admin such as changing address, canceling services, and working out new routes to work and school, you have the small matter of the move itself. But, with an organized approach, it needn’t be stressful at all. Here are three tips to make moving day a little easier on you.
Packing Fragile Items? Don’t Go It Alone
One of the biggest worries for home-movers is whether their precious cargo will arrive in one piece. Mirrors, television sets, glass tables, pianos – they each cost a lot of money to buy, and you certainly don’t want to have to purchase a new one simply because it hadn’t been appropriately packed. You need to call in the professionals. There are teams who are expert St. Petersburg FL piano movers, who have all of the protective equipment and carrying materials to transport your prized items safely.
How You Pack Your Boxes Is Everything
They may seem like just a bunch of cardboard boxes, but you’ll want to carefully consider exactly what goes into each, and how you stack them. Put breakables on the top, bulkier items on the bottom, and try to keep all of the “same room” things together. For example, all your kitchen items in one box, your bathroom sets in another. You’ll also need to keep an eye on how much each box weighs. Heavier things like books will need to go in several small boxes so that you can still carry them versus lightweight things that can go in one large box as they won’t weigh too much for the box to bear.
Do You Really Need to Bring It All?
Before you pack anything, declutter. You’ll likely find you have heaps of belongings that you don’t need anymore. Sell them in a yard sale, donate them to a charity thrift store, or give them to a friend; the last thing you need to do is haul a load of things you don’t need or want all the way to your new house. Not only will they take up valuable space in your moving truck but you’ll also need to find a place for them in your new home.
