Moving Soon?


 

Moving - It’s tedious, time-consuming and sometimes a nightmare. It’s a journey we’ve all have taken at least once in our lifetime. One thing we can all say is true is that moving is a process that requires you take to make multiple decisions that can leave your head in shambles. On the bright side, there are a few steps you can take beforehand to make your moving experience a successful one.


Here are 10 moving Do’s & Don’ts Tips


Don’t:

1. Don’t procrastinate. Waiting until your move date to start packing may cost you time and money in the long run

2. Don’t settle for moving companies online or over the phone estimate.

3. Don’t hire movies you never met and isn’t insured. Meet with your movers at your home to obtain an onsite estimate weeks before your move date.

4. Don’t schedule a move during the summer months or towards the end of the month as these are the busiest time for moving companies.

5. Don’t pack valuables, such as money, jewelry or important documents. These items should be carried with you at all times



Do:

1. Do create a personal inventory of all your items. This can help you decide on hiring a moving company to pack your items vs packing items yourself to save money

2. Do a thorough search for multiple moving companies and obtain multiple estimates. Never settle for the first company you contact. Additionally, not all moving companies are insured.

3. Do a thorough search of the moving truck once all items are unloaded.

4. Do label all boxes with a short description of the content inside. This may help movers know where items belong when unloading

5. Do donate or throw away any items that are no longer needed.
