We know that moving can be stressful – the idea of packing up your entire life and relocating can fill even the most prepared with fear. The excitement of finding your new home has been replaced with worried thoughts of the actual move.
Here are some top tips to make your next move easier and less stressful
Declutter before packing
Throw out or donate unnecessary clutter. Every household accumulates items that aren’t needed and just fill up space.
Take pictures of your room set-ups
Having pictures of your current set up will help you to recreate those spaces in your new home.
Label all boxes with the room where they were packed
By packing room by room and then labelling all of the boxes, it will help you stay organised when unpacking.
Put together a moving survival kit
Create a list of essentials that will help you get through the first few days of the move. This way these items won’t be at the bottom of an unknown box when you need them. Essentials could include toilet paper, paper towels, medications, snacks etc
Unpack room by room
Start by organising all of the boxes in their respective rooms. You can then prioritise which rooms to start unpacking first, slowly moving through the house until you’ve unpacked all of the boxes.
Moving doesn’t have to be stressful – just like finding your perfect home! With the right plan of action and organisation, both are exciting times!
