Smart Tips For a Stress-Free Move

People relocate for various reasons. It can be due to a new job assignment, moving to a larger home, or downsizing once the kids are out of the house. Regardless, moving can be stressful and complicated. For a hassle-free move, hiring an experienced moving company like Around Town Movers is an ideal solution. Below are a few helpful tips for a stress-free move.

Get Boxes For Free

You can lessen your moving expenses by getting your boxes for free from the “Free” section of Craigslist, grocery, clothing stores, and warehouse-style stores. As soon as you get enough containers, we will use them to pack your possessions efficiently.

Declutter

Spend time sorting out some of your belongings. Be objective and honest in determining if a particular item still has utility or if you can leave it behind. Once you identify the ones that you want to let go, you can establish a garage sale to help you get rid of them. As your reliable movers, we’ll be happy to help sort and dispose of the items that you no longer need.

Create a Schedule

Plan at least one month ahead. This will give you ample time in case something unexpected comes up. Make sure you defrost, towel dry, and clean your refrigerator two days before the date of your relocation. We can help you plot a schedule that will be amenable to you and your household as well as with us.

Make an Inventory

This ensures that your valuables are all accounted for. Put labels and numbers on each of your boxes to help you determine what each one contains. Make sure to review your inventory a day or two before leaving for your new home.  As your trusted local movers, we’ll help ensure that none of your valuables go missing as we move them to your new residence.
