Moving Tips

Start Early

It's best to start planning and preparing for your move as soon as possible. This will give you plenty of time to organize and reduce stress.

​

Make a list

Make a Checklist: Make a list of all the tasks you need to complete before, during, and after your move. This will help you stay organized and ensure that nothing is forgotten.



Have plenty of supplies

A good moving tip is always to have a pack full of supplies like tape, staple gun, pens and markers, scissors etc on hand for when you need to quickly mark a box



Utilize wardrobe boxes

You can use your wardrobes as extra storage spaces to store stuff​



Strategize wardrobe box use

Label Boxes Clearly: Label each box with its contents and the room it belongs to. This will make unpacking easier and more organized..



Color coordinate

Keep Essentials Separate: Pack a separate box with essential items like toiletries, medication, and a change of clothes. Keep this box with you during the move so you can easily access these items.

​​

Get rid of unwanted items

Before you start packing, sort through your belongings and get rid of anything you no longer need or use. You can donate, sell, or give away unwanted items.

​

Pack Fragile Items Carefully

Use bubble wrap, packing paper, or blankets to wrap fragile items like glassware, dishes, and electronics. Pack them in sturdy boxes and label them as fragile.

​

Take Pictures of Electronic Setups

If you have electronics with complicated setups, take a picture of how everything is connected before you pack it. This will make setting them up in your new home much easier.

​

Notify Important Parties

Make sure you notify important parties, like your bank, utilities, and other service providers of your change of address before your move.

​

Take Breaks

Moving can be stressful and tiring, so make sure you take breaks and give yourself time to rest. Stay hydrated and nourished throughout the process.

​

Hire a reputable moving company

Hire a Reputable Moving Company: If you're hiring a moving company, make sure they're licensed, insured, and reputable. Read reviews and get referrals from friends and family.​
