Hacks to Make your Move Quick and Easy
Moving can be stressful, whether you move often or are packing your bags for the first time. From planning and organizing to packing and unpacking, the entire process can be overwhelming. Luckily, while moving isn’t easy for anyone, there are some ways you can pack and unpack faster to reduce the amount of work.
Here are some moving hacks for a smooth and easy moving process.
Pack an essentials bag
When moving, it’s highly unlikely you’ll unpack everything on the first day. So ensure you have an essentials bag with you to avoid digging through boxes, looking for items to use on the first few nights. Your essentials bag should contain items such as a toothbrush, toothpaste, paper towels, toilet paper, and phone charger.
Label boxes
Label all your packages detailing the contents of the box and the room they belong to. For instance, dishes for the kitchen or towels for the bathroom. This makes it easy to find items when unpacking. Also, label fragile items to ensure proper handling.
Don’t take clothes off hangers
This saves a lot of time when packing and unpacking since you don’t have to individually fold clothes or place them back on their hangers once you move. Simply divide your closet into sections and put them in a garbage bag with their hangers.
Declutter
Moving is the perfect time to get rid of old furniture, clothes, or belongings that gather dust in your basement or garage. Go through your stuff to determine what you need and use and donate or throw away the rest.
Hire movers
Don’t underestimate the moving process and hire movers. They’re experts in moving and take the hassle out of the entire process, from packing and unpacking to loading and unloading. And, if you need to store your items, movers offer reliable and efficient storage services.
